His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 705 - 198 Pampering (6) Cherishing one’s own child_1

"I still have to discuss business with clients today, so I can’t stay long. Qin Mu, rest well!"

Zhuo Wen said his goodbyes and immediately left.

Feng Fanghua went to see Zhuo Wen off, after which the room suddenly became quiet again.

Qin Mu smiled as she looked at the man standing beside her; Mu Yichen was also looking at her.

At this moment, it seemed as if their eyes conveyed different thoughts.

So quiet, yet so profound.

Mu Zihao glanced at his son, then whispered, "I’m going to check on the child."

Once Mu Zihao had left, the room was completely devoid of any other sound.

The breathing of the two people seemed to become the heaviest sound in the room.

"Did Zhuo Wen come to you last night?"

"Yes!"

Mu Yichen didn’t deny it.

The air around them quieted down.

Despite Zhuo Wen’s great performance, Qin Mu couldn’t give her full marks in this act.

Because if it were full marks, then at the very least, Zhuo Wen shouldn’t have made her feel uncomfortable, at least not before the final confrontation.

A woman stays in another place for so long; wouldn’t her fiancé be anxious?

Zhuo Wen didn’t even go back to Australia for Christmas; what exactly was she planning?

——

While there was no one else in her ward, Helian Hao took the opportunity to chat with her. Seeing her uncomfortable appearance, he asked, "Is it because of that woman?"

"It should be!"

Qin Mu lay in bed, looking at the ceiling; she felt that maybe she wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer.

"Does Mu Yichen know?"

Helian Hao leaned against the cabinet, crossed his arms, and asked again.

"He probably knows."

Qin Mu thought, Zhuo Wen had talked to Mu Yichen on her first night there; how could Mu Yichen not understand her feelings?

"Why do you keep saying ’should’?"

Helian Hao frowned. Qin Mu’s state seemed more dejected than he had ever seen.

Even when Qin Mu and Mu Yichen’s relationship was unstable, and Qin Mu felt insecure, she wasn’t as dejected as she was now.

"Ask Jing Feng to help me investigate something," Qin Mu said after some thought to Helian Hao.

"Sure, tell me!"

Helian Hao agreed readily. Qin Mu told her the matter, and after thinking for a while, Helian Hao added, "Any woman who stays in a married man’s house for a long time, and insists on living there, wouldn’t be believed as having pure intentions by anyone."

No need to investigate; she already knew the reason.

But Helian Hao later sought out Jing Feng to help with the investigation.

Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh.

"But now nobody at home dares to say anything to her. Grandfather values the camaraderie with his old comrades very much and likes Zhuo Wen a lot."

Qin Mu’s voice was soft and weak, but her mind remained very clear.

Qin Mu knew that if she didn’t do something soon, she would continue to feel this confusion.

"Sigh! Elders are always like this, arranging all kinds of troubles without the younger generation knowing."

Thinking of her own issues, Helian Hao also felt it was tedious.

"By the time you’re discharged, I’ll probably have to take a leave of absence!"

Helian Hao thought to herself, she was using Qin Mu’s hospitalization as an excuse, but she couldn’t delay for much longer. Many doctors worked during their pregnancy, but she had to take an extended leave due to her special family circumstances.

"You don’t want to take a leave? You can come visit me often after your leave, or we can chat in the studio every day?"

Qin Mu offered her a suggestion. freёnovelkiss.com

"Cut it out! I won’t bother you at work; I’m not going there."

Helian Hao teased her back.

"I’m not planning to work during this time."

Qin Mu said.

"Do you think I believe you? You’ll probably itch to chop off your hand if you don’t draw for three days?"

"Is it that extreme?"

Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh, the first time she had been amused since being hospitalized.

"What are you exaggerating about now?"

Mu Yichen had returned with a bunch of lilies, and hearing Qin Mu sounding cheerful, his expression unconsciously brightened a lot.

What he feared most was her unhappiness.

Helian Hao glanced at the lilies in Mu Yichen’s hand, "Did you buy them from the florist at the entrance of our hospital?"

"Yes!"

Mu Yichen glanced at the flowers and was puzzled to see Helian Hao’s disdain, wondering if there was something wrong with them.

"Alright then, I won’t disturb the two of you in your world. I’m off to guard my last shift."

Helian Hao dropped her arms and left.

Mu Yichen came out with a vase full of water, and Qin Mu, leaning on the headboard, couldn’t help but ask curiously as he brought over the flowers, "Why did you suddenly decide to buy flowers?"

"Just, felt like it!"

Mu Yichen thought for a moment and unexpectedly found himself at a loss to say it was because he wanted to make her happy.

Qin Mu couldn’t help but mockingly laugh at him, reaching out to gently touch the lily petals; the cool, moist feeling was surprisingly pleasant.
