Chapter 371: 113 Compensation Required by President Mu (14)_1

Qin Mu’s greatest fear was the sudden transformation of a loved one into an enemy.

Xiaomei had been with her for so long; naturally, she was the last person Qin Mu wanted to see change.

After their chat, Xiaomei left, and Qin Mu stood alone at the door of the studio, silently watching the empty space, reminiscing their first visit to this place together.

She drove to Jing Feng and Helian Hao’s apartment. The two of them sat on the couch, chatting; Helian Hao was completely listless.

"I plan to spend the New Year at my parents’ this year," Helian Hao said, her head bowed beside her.

Qin Mu, guessing it was the atmosphere of the Jing Family that made her uncomfortable, just nodded and asked, "What about Jing Feng?"

"He can do as he pleases! Unless something unexpected happens, he’ll naturally spend it at his own home," Helian Hao replied, still with her eyes lowered, seemingly very despondent and sentimental.

Qin Mu sat beside her, gently took her hand, and suddenly realized she hadn’t been showing Helian Hao enough concern lately.

"Why did we even get married? I knew it wouldn’t be happy," Helian Hao mused.

"Xiaohao, don’t you think that mindset might be unfair to Jing Feng?" Qin Mu asked her in a soft voice.

"Yes, it’s unfair to him. But you know, the word ’fair’ seems so simple, yet is so difficult to actually achieve," Helian Hao looked up, the sorrow in her eyes immediately apparent.

"Would you like to hear about my affair with Mu Yichen?" Qin Mu suddenly changed the subject.

Curious, Helian Hao gazed at her. Qin Mu also lowered her eyes with a wry smile.

"I used to think like you, how could two people not blessed by others live a happy life together? However, his care for me exceeded my expectations. He said he wanted to be with me for life and had never considered anyone else. I became very tired later, you know how much prejudice his mother holds against me, and with the Jing Family, Jing Qing going out of her way to torment me. But seeing how good he is to me, I suddenly thought, if I just left, who would be the most pleased? Who would be the most disappointed? Why should I sadden the person who cares about me the most, and bring joy to those who don’t care?" Qin Mu said.

Helian Hao instinctively observed her. After Qin Mu finished speaking, she lifted her gaze to look back at her, her hand gently holding Helian Hao’s.

"You know I’ve never believed in love. My parents were once so in love, but then Zhang Rujia brought Qin Mingzhu to my home, and my world was shattered. From that moment, I developed an aversion to love and to men. Yet, he has been by my side all these years. Xiaohao, I believe that no matter what, we should cherish such men and not choose to give up on ourselves," Qin Mu expressed.

Helian Hao slowly rested her forehead on Qin Mu’s shoulder, her hair hiding her face. She hummed softly, feeling the shake in her breath.

"But I’ve been so tired lately!"

"That’s because you’re in poor health. Eat well and recover quickly. Then you’ll be the energetic and spirited doctor once again," Qin Mu comforted her with a chuckle.

Helian Hao laughed too but remained leaning on Qin Mu’s shoulder without lifting her face for a while.

She knew Qin Mu was right. Many people had visited her recently: colleagues, parents. But everyone complained to her, making her feel as if her relationship with Jing Feng was truly impossible.

Especially when others spoke of how marriages not blessed by family elders were doomed to unhappiness, thoughts of the Jing Family patriarch and Jing Qing made her feel that her situation with Jing Feng was probably just as others had described.

Thankfully, Qin Mu’s visit kept her from sinking further into pessimism.

If even Qin Mu could persevere, how could she be so fragile?

Suddenly, as if coming to a realization, Helian Hao relaxed her mood and said, "Stay for lunch. I’ll cook for you myself."

"Let’s order takeout, from a hotel," Qin Mu suggested, thinking that Helian Hao was not in a condition to cook, but fearing Jing Feng might get mad over ordinary takeout, so it was better to order nutritious lunch from a hotel.

"Well..."

"I’ll ask the manager of AM’s restaurant," Qin Mu interjected.

Helian Hao actually meant to bring this up, but hadn’t expected that Qin Mu would finally be willing to ask someone for help to make her happy.

After lunch and a brief chat with Helian Hao, Qin Mu left. Firstly, because Helian Hao’s health didn’t permit her to sit for too long, and secondly, because Qin Mu needed to go home and chat with Mu Qingxin.

Originally, she was quite apprehensive about reuniting with Mu Qingxin, considering the girl had so many grievances against her. But after dealing with Jing Qing, she found Mu Qingxin quite
