Chapter 237: Will you get tired of it_5

It’s a feeling of happiness! Emotion!

After arriving at AM, the two hugged and walked toward the elevator. Jing Qing and her friend just happened to arrive too. Twisting her head at the elevator entrance, she caught sight of them and immediately greeted Mu Yichen with unconcealed joy, "Yichen, what a coincidence."

"Mm!"

Mu Yichen responded indifferently, then subconsciously looked at his own woman.

Qin Mu actually thought this was for the best. It wasn’t necessary for Jing Qing to greet her in front of him; she wouldn’t exchange pleasantries with Jing Qing either. Pretending they were invisible to each other was ideal.

But how could Jing Qing not see her?

"I heard that Qiao Yi is going to Africa for a business trip lasting half a year, and later I will go to see him off."

Jing Qing said this with a smile, gentle and proper.

Mu Yichen, however, did not look at her again or say anything more.

Qin Mu was even more determined to act invisible, not making a sound, for fear of disturbing the delicate atmosphere.

A person needs quite a large number of faces, she guessed it would be difficult to keep count.

After reaching the restaurant, Jing Qing and her girlfriend were the first ones to exit the elevator, followed by the two of them.

Qin Mu kept her eyes forward the whole way. As they exited, Mu Yichen purposely pinched her waist, causing her such pain that she nearly couldn’t help but cry out. Lifting her eyes to look at him, she forcefully elbowed him.

"Ah!"

So it was actually Brother Yichen who covered his chest in pain, bending his originally straight back.

Qin Mu immediately felt embarrassed, for they had stepped out of the elevator and everyone, hearing the noise, looked toward them, Jing Qing included, turning back curiously.

They could have passed by uneventfully, but Brother Yichen just had to cause a scene.

"It’s nothing, nothing!"

Brother Yichen deliberately lifted his head and pretended nothing was wrong, smiling, then rubbed his chest and straightened his back, forcefully hooking his arm around her shoulder as they walked together.

Qin Mu wished she could push him far away, but he wouldn’t allow it, his hands gripping her shoulders so she couldn’t move at all.

Jing Qing watched the two of them pass by her and walk toward the elegant redwood stairs, unconsciously opening her mouth.

"This Young Master Yichen is really strange," her friend couldn’t help but say with a laugh.

"Is that so?"

Jing Qing’s voice was dispassionate, her expression just as indifferent. Her friend, noticing Jing Qing wasn’t happy, knew better than to continue the topic.

Yet Jing Qing’s gaze lingered on the playful pair as they made their way upstairs.

Jing Feng had asked her if she wanted to see Qiao Yi off. She had said no.

She knew Qiao Yi’s feelings for her, but she truly felt he was unworthy of her.

But he had come.

"Let’s go have dinner first!"

Their table had been reserved in advance, so the waiter quickly approached upon seeing them, and the two women followed him to their seats.

After sitting down, her friend asked, "This Miss Qin doesn’t appear to be all that remarkable, though she seems to have quite a temper."

"More than just that. Today she even beat her stepmother to the point of hospitalization, and I heard her half-sister didn’t escape unscathed either."

"Oh my, is that really true? How could she dare?"

Jing Qing laughed helplessly, shaking her head as if to say that appearances can be deceiving.

"How could Yichen like such a girl? Doesn’t he know about Miss Qin’s behavior?"

"Even if he knew, he probably wouldn’t believe it. His eyes are blinded now."

As Jing Qing spoke, she couldn’t help but look again in their direction, her eyes filled with longing.

"That’s true. Men usually go haywire when bewitched by a woman, both heart and brain shutting down."

The other woman shook her head, then sighed with a sense of resignation as if moved by the conversation.

"Hmph!"

Jing Qing snorted with a bitter smile. Why couldn’t she enchant him? It would have been nice if she could cause either his heart or brain to malfunction.

Seeing her expression, her friend guessed the reason; after all, everyone in town knew Jing Qing was once the designated fiancee of Mu Yichen, the woman he was to marry, the future lady of the Mu Family. But now, Qin Mu was living in the Mu Family home, and she even had a child with Mu Yichen. Though seemingly without official status, this was better than having nothing at all, wasn’t it?

"You really shouldn’t worry too much. Men get fascinated by the fresh temper of young girls, but sooner or later, they’ll be captivated by another fresh girl. They always tire of one woman after a few years."

Upon hearing this, Jing Qing picked up her tea, sipped it lightly, and managed a courteous smile.
