His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2238: Chapter 652: One Year Later (29) How Goes the Battle?

There’s still work in the afternoon, and Mu always wants not a glass, but a bottle of liquor, what does that mean?

Zhao Huai and Xi Meng sat across each other, exchanging a glance, perplexed.

Qin Mu followed Mu Yichen to the restroom door, holding onto his sleeve before he went in, and questioned him: ”Are you upset?”

Mu Yichen glanced at her indifferently, then gently pushed her hand away: ”Let me use the restroom first.”

Qin Mu released the fabric of his sleeve from her grasp, standing woodenly at the doorway.

A man came out from inside, curiously looking at her, and Qin Mu slightly raised her eyes, thinking it wasn’t her first time waiting at a men’s restroom door.

Yet feeling a bit puzzled, why was he so unhappy?

Speaking of which, the one truly uncomfortable from beginning to end should be her, but his expression always makes her feel that it’s he who bears suffering.

Later, Mu Yichen came out after washing his hands, seeing her still standing with her head lowered at the door, unsure of what she was thinking, and sighed helplessly: ”How did the meeting go with Ms. Feng?”

Upon hearing his voice, Qin Mu looked up to see him already walking ahead, and leisurely followed, as Mu walked at a pace waiting for her.

”Not very well!”

Qin Mu softly spoke, arms crossed, eyes casually watching ahead.

Mu Yichen chuckled lightly, as expected.

”Did the child stay?”

Mu Yichen asked again.

Qin Mu nodded silently; this feeling of being seen through completely was somewhat unpleasant, leaving no mystery.

Mu Yichen glanced at her, sighed helplessly, and continued walking.

After lunch, Mu suddenly asked Xi Meng and Zhao Huai to explain the afternoon matters, and without having held a meeting, let Qin Mu drive him back to the old house.

Qin Mu calculated in her mind while driving, it seemed impolite for them to return like this, like coming to snatch the child, yet she didn’t want to come back after a while only to have the child stay at grandma’s house and not be able to meet her, thus said nothing.

”Just wait for me at the door later, no need to go inside!”

Mu Yichen quietly instructed her.

Qin Mu looked at him in confusion: ”Why?”

Though she understood right after asking, she had already asked.

Mu Yichen did not answer, just glanced at her, then closed his eyes and relaxed in the seat.

Qin Mu thought of some words from Helian Hao, pondered repeatedly, but couldn’t help asking: ”Did you break up with Miss Chen?”

Feeling somewhat flustered, afraid he’d retaliate with a sentence, complaining she was nosy.

”Hmph!”

Mu Yichen sneered but did not answer.

Qin Mu couldn’t help but guess, yet couldn’t fathom, so didn’t dare to ask further, continuing to properly be his driver.

Who knew, when they reached the old house entrance, he had fallen asleep.

Qin Mu parked the car at the gate without going inside, after all, Mu Mr. didn’t want her to go in and cause unnecessary conflict.

Xiang Hang’s car followed them, and Qin Mu glanced before getting out to greet him.

As Xiang Hang saw her approach, he promptly extinguished the cigarette and stepped out: ”Madam!”

”Just call me Qin Mu like Li Jie does.”

Qin Mu smiled, generously responding to him.

Xiang Hang lowered his head with a wry smile: ”I heard that you haven’t divorced Chen Shao.”

The words caught Qin Mu off guard, she shrugged helplessly, then asked him again: ”How have you been lately?”

”Well, fortunately, your fame has grown recently, giving me some work to do; over the past year, it’s really been a bit boring.”

Xiang Hang appeared with a resigning expression, his smile unconvincing.

Qin Mu guessed that assisting with Huanhuan might not have been easy for him either.

Mu Yichen awakened in the car, unable to comprehend Qin Mu, glanced around and saw his wife chatting gleefully under the sunlight with another woman.

”Year-end is coming, hasn’t Mu Mr. given you a holiday?”

Qin Mu jovially remarked, just at the moment she turned around, bright eyes caught the domineering Mu Mr. opening the car door to stand.

Her heart suddenly felt ill-equipped, like a cold wind abruptly casting her into his embrace.

Mu Yichen merely glanced before returning to the car, driving inside the house.

Qin Mu and Xiang Hang watched from outside, both sighed helplessly.

Ever since the two officially parted ways, many things seemed beyond control, inevitable, merely turning into regrets.

Feng Fanghua heard Qin Mu’s car parked outside, already irritated enough, but upon seeing Qin Mu’s car driving inside, anger welled up, pondering why Qin Mu stayed outside so long before coming in, only to hear someone greeting Mu Yichen.
