His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2364: Chapter 678: A Thousand Miles in Pursuit of a Wife (10)_2

Xiao Wei couldn’t say those words, so she turned around and forcefully shoved the phone into Jian Yan’s arms, then left with their little daughter in her arms.

Jian Yan was helpless, watching his wife and daughter leave. Seeing that the call was still connected, he picked up: ”Hello?”

”It’s me!”

Jian Yan said flatly, his eyes moving back from his wife and daughter, and slowly spoke.

”Are you okay?”

Qin Mu asked subconsciously with concern.

”Me? What’s wrong with me?”

After saying that, Jian Yan suddenly felt it wasn’t right, thinking about Xiao Wei’s recent behavior; Qin Mu must have misunderstood.

”I’m fine. Just wanted to let you know, you don’t have to come over tonight!”

”Huh?”

”Mu Yichen already came during the day.”

After hanging up, Qin Mu kept thinking, just because Mu Yichen went, does it mean anything for her?

After returning home, Qin Mu put down her bag and phone, taking off her coat while questioning the man standing nearby holding a glass and drinking plain water. Although he was much taller than her, Qin Mu’s aura wasn’t any lesser.

”Did you go to my master’s place today and say something ridiculous again?”

Qin Mu questioned him.

Mu Yichen glanced at her, then calmly continued drinking his water.

At this moment, both of them had bad tempers, but surprisingly, Mu Yichen held back his anger.

”What absurd things could I have said? I went to admit my faults.”

Mu Yichen was a bit further from her, holding the glass and looking at her with an unimpressed expression, explaining to her casually.

”Admit, admit faults?”

Qin Mu was so angry she was stuttering.

”Yeah! Back then, I promised not to let you go back to Paris again, but now I’m breaking that promise, so I went to apologize to our father-like, brother-like figure!”

Father-like, brother-like?

Apologize?

Qin Mu seriously doubted her ears were having issues.

Why was he suddenly pretending to have a good temper?

His terrible temper, who that knows him doesn’t know about it?

Qin Mu instinctively evaluated him up and down, not believing a word of what he said.

Mu Yichen didn’t mind her skeptical look, instead recalling last night’s incident when he secretly went to her room to sleep.

Though sneaking into her bed was a common occurrence for him, she got up first today, and now she didn’t mention a word about it. Mu Yichen thought about it for a bit and decided not to argue with her over other matters.

Compared to a cold night, having someone soft and fragrant in his arms, everything else seemed particularly unimportant.

Qin Mu felt his gaze was a bit odd, so she didn’t approach him and muttered as she turned around to head upstairs.

Mu Yichen chuckled lightly, casually glancing at the two little rascals standing nearby. He furrowed his eyebrows unconsciously: ”What are you two looking at?”

The two little ones stared up at him as if they were observing a monster.

”Dad, why are you laughing?”

”Yeah! If Mom sees you laughing, she’ll get mad at you again!”

The siblings were like a thousand whys, throwing a few similar questions at him every day. He’d gotten used to it and just lightly told them: ”Adults’ matters are none of children’s business.”

”Oh!”

The siblings responded and then quickly started running around the house again.

Mu Yichen eventually finished his glass of water and then went to the kitchen to cook. Qin Mu, dressed in pink loungewear with long sleeves and pants, came downstairs.

”Where’s your dad?”

She grabbed one little rascal and asked.

”Kitchen!”

Chengcheng was in a hurry to chase after her sister, so she quickly said and freed herself from Qin Mu’s hold.

Qin Mu glanced toward the kitchen, pondered for a moment, and thought, of course, if he went to the kitchen, where else could he go?

Could it be that he’d go home?

Qin Mu turned and headed for the kitchen, seeing him seriously cooking inside. Qin Mu chuckled, which sounded like mockery to Mu Yichen’s ears.

Mu Yichen turned to look at her: ”What’s so funny? Do I look ridiculous being so hardworking and uncomplaining?”

Qin Mu widened her eyes at him, slightly raising her chin, making her cheeks appear a bit chubby.

That surprised expression, however, drew a disdainful glance from Mu Yichen before he returned to cooking.

Qin Mu thought, would I dare to mock you? Am I crazy?

However, she still crossed her arms, leaning against the door frame quietly watching Mr. Mu cook.

For some reason, she always felt this ongoing situation wasn’t suitable for the long term.

”Did I mention that your mom called me? She wants you to go back soon!”

Qin Mu reminded cautiously, fearing she’d say the wrong word and make Mr. Mu unhappy, as he was in the middle of cooking. If he suddenly decided to quit, there would be no dinner for her.
