His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 2415: Chapter 688: Returned (6)_4

On the way back, Huanhuan couldn’t resist her curiosity and asked Mu Yichen. She had been concerned all day, hearing from the teacher that periods could be really tormenting, making her feel even more sorry for her mom.

”Not very well, feverish in the afternoon.”

Mu Yichen said.

”Huh? Fever? Mom is having a really hard time? The teacher said some girls experience their periods like they are sick, I didn’t believe it, but the teacher said it’ll be better after those days pass, is that true, dad?”

Huanhuan had been preoccupied with the concept of periods all day.

Mu Yichen looked at her through the rear-view mirror and asked: ”Did you pay attention in class today?”

”The test paper from yesterday was handed back today, a hundred percent!”

Huanhuan proudly straightened her back and informed Mu Yichen.

Mu Yichen helplessly shook his head, thinking he initially planned to quiet her using her studies as a reason, but it seems like that’s not going to work.

”Dad, that seems to be Grandma’s car!”

Chengcheng noticed the parked car on the side of the road and suddenly called out.

Mu Yichen glanced at the rear-view mirror and indeed saw that it was Feng Fanghua sitting in the car, despite telling her not to come to pick them up, she still couldn’t let go.

But if she can’t let go, why won’t she treat Qin Mu better?

Mu Yichen had been upset these past few days, often wondering why Qin Mu wouldn’t speak out, always keeping things to herself until it nearly turns into a serious issue, her patience exceeds his by far.

Actually, Qin Mu also thought that her patience didn’t match Mu Yichen’s at all!

——

”You keep an eye for me, if they insist we go over for a direct inspection, just go yourself then.”

”Huh? You’re not going? What if they ask about you?”

Xiaomei and Qin Mu were discussing work at home.

”I’m like this already!”

Qin Mu, looking overwhelmed, said to Xiaomei.

Xiaomei giggled twice: ”Okay, I know what to say!”

Qin Mu and Xiaomei sat for a while, other guests required attention from the couple, Xiaomei instinctively went to make water and prepare food for her, taking care of her entirely.

”Does this count as me officially working?”

Xiaomei asked her again.

”Yeah! We can call it that!”

Qin Mu looked at her, eyes filled with fondness mixed with puzzlement, wondering why she liked work so much.

”Ah! Now I won’t be a slacker, lately helping at the shop, I always felt idle and restless, though I clearly understood running errands for you, but the technique of salesmanship for items is difficult for me to learn, doing other things is out because Sister Li doesn’t need me, you have no idea how tough it’s been for me.”

Xiaomei vented.

”Sister Li said you helped her a lot, at least in terms of display skills, no one matched your keen eye.”

Qin Mu mentioned.

”That’s all I’m good at, I still prefer being by your side!”

Xiaomei moved closer while speaking.

Qin Mu smiled helplessly, recalling over the years, truly, no one made her happier than Xiaomei beside her, even though sometimes this girl could be a bit of a troublemaker, she also always found ways to cheer her up.

”Mom, we’re back!”

”Mom, are you feeling better?”

”Aunt Xiaomei!”

The siblings returned, calling inside as soon as they entered, raising their eyes to see Chen Xiaomei on the couch, slightly surprised but hurriedly approached Qin Mu, Huanhuan even leaned over on the couch edge to feel her forehead.

”I’m fine!”

Qin Mu shifted slightly backward to prevent her daughter from touching her burning forehead.

”Since Mr. Mu and the kids are already back, I’ll head out first, if anything comes up I’ll call you.”

Xiaomei stood up from the sofa.

”Goodbye Aunt Xiaomei!”

”Goodbye Aunt Xiaomei!”

The siblings quickly said farewell to Xiaomei, Xiaomei smiled: ”Bye-bye!”

Mu Yichen just entered and hearing Xiaomei was leaving, slightly nodded to her, Xiaomei also nodded back, holding her breath as she ran out.

For Xiaomei, meeting Mu Yichen alone was still as nerve-wracking as before.

That feeling of a commoner meeting royalty, Xiaomei could never shake off.

Mu Yichen went to the sofa behind her and extended his hand to feel her forehead from behind, discovering it was still burning, his brows furrowed: ”Why is it still so hot?”

”Not enough rest yet!”

Qin Mu instinctively reclined backward, lifting her hand to remove his from her forehead, unexpectedly, he gripped her hand.

The warmth in his palm was enough to trigger anxiety, Mu Yichen furrowed his brows tighter: ”You two shouldn’t stay here!”
