His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 851 - 241 Eavesdropping_4
Chapter 851: 241 Eavesdropping_4
Mu Yichen didn’t speak at all until they entered the hotel’s entrance of AM.
The staff helped open the car door for Qin Mu, and Mu Yichen went around to hold her hand and then pulled her inside with him.
Qin Mu was startled by his sudden movement, not until she turned around and saw Li Yu walking over with several people.
Qin Mu let out a silent sigh in her heart, then smiled faintly: "What a coincidence!"
"Quite a coincidence indeed! Came here to discuss a script."
Li Yu walked over, glanced up to see Mu Yichen not looking at him, and thus didn’t greet him.
"Let’s go!"
Mu Yichen pulled Qin Mu away!
"Bye!"
Qin Mu deliberately waved at Li Yu, who watched them enter first, then stood at the entrance waiting for someone.
After Mu Yichen pulled Qin Mu into the elevator, she couldn’t help but sigh: "Do you believe that Li Yu has someone he likes?"
Mu Yichen lowered his gaze to look at her, but didn’t say a word to her.
"If you don’t believe it, let’s bet."
"Bet on what?"
"You’ve agreed!"
Seeing him finally speaking, Qin Mu certainly had to give in.
"Bet on your studio," Mu Yichen said.
Qin Mu...
"No, the studio can’t be used for betting! I can’t afford to bet!"
Qin Mu looked up at him, candidly explaining her reasons.
Then Mu Yichen didn’t speak anymore.
Qin Mu also didn’t continue speaking; since they couldn’t agree, she let it be.
Just as he let go of her hand, Qin Mu felt an ache in her heart as she looked down.
"Mu Yichen, you’ve changed!"
The moment the elevator opened, Qin Mu blurted out that sentence.
Mu Yichen stepped out without hearing her words clearly, but Qin Mu was already finding it hard to breathe.
A dining gathering where big shots brought their wives.
It seemed like several couples were particularly keen to please Mu Yichen, so they all wore JY’s fashion.
Although they were older, they were better at lightening up the mood than the two of them.
"Mrs. Mu may not know this, but my husband particularly loves wearing clothes from your store, he even recommends it to friends to shop there," the lady next to her brought up.
"Oh really? Then I must thank you for bringing friends to patronize us,"
Qin Mu raised her glass to clink with the couple.
"The most important thing is that the clothes look high-quality, feel great, and with President Mu’s connection,."
The big shot explained with a chuckle.
Qin Mu’s other hand helplessly tugged at Mu Yichen’s clothes under the table.
Mu Yichen then seemingly came to his senses, raising his glass to drink with them.
Qin Mu looked at him a bit anxiously, more worried about the people discussing JY’s matters in his heart.
Now the last thing Mu Yichen wants to hear are matters concerning JY and Li Yu.
Therefore, Qin Mu felt a little nervous inside, but that afternoon, everyone really did praise the unique designs of their studio’s clothes as if they had rehearsed, speaking eloquently, causing Qin Mu to feel like an outsider.
Mu Yichen even took out a cigarette halfway through, and the man beside him immediately took a lighter to help him light up upon seeing him place the cigarette in his mouth.
Qin Mu watched Mu Yichen’s smoking pose, thinking he looked like a mafia boss.
So, why did he bring her here? She hadn’t even started to complain yet, and he was already annoyed.
Later, Mu Yichen just sat listening to their conversation, even smiling as if he finally fit in with them.
However, Qin Mu felt somewhat uncomfortable sitting there, and with his chest always facing her, his hand occasionally resting on her chair, she excused herself to the people beside her and stood up gracefully, then whispered to Mu Yichen, "I’m going to the restroom."
Mu Yichen didn’t look at her; he just flicked his cigarette ash, that imposing gaze slightly drooping looking at the ash being flicked away, and Qin Mu left.
After leaving the private room, Qin Mu took a deep breath, then couldn’t bring herself to fake it anymore and tiredly went to the restroom.
Li Yu was chatting with a girl inside; they seemed quite reserved as well.
When he saw her, he smiled: "Qin Mu!"
The girl turned her head upon hearing her name, then nodded at her with a smile, "Hello."
Qin Mu also smiled: Why are you here chatting?
"Too many people inside, this is my sister, Li Man."
Li Yu briefly introduced her.
Li Man, watching Li Yu, couldn’t help but laugh, and asked Qin Mu: "Do you think we look alike?"
Qin Mu took a careful look, then shook her head.
Li Yu...
"That’s right, we’re not blood siblings at all. His father married my mother later on. We have different fathers, different mothers, but are step-siblings."
