Chapter 427: 128 Making use of_1

Qin Mu was picked up from inside and by the time they got outside, it was nearly midnight. She was draped in Mu Yichen’s black jacket, gazing at the stars above, and couldn’t help but laugh softly.

Mu Yichen hugged her shoulders, "Can you still walk?"

"The stars are so beautiful!"

Following her gaze into the night sky, Mu Yichen suddenly remembered how just last night he was complaining about her watching the stars outside.

Yes, the stars are so beautiful!

He didn’t ask her anything else, just lifted her off the ground and into his arms.

She curled up in his embrace, quietly pressing against his chest.

"Yichen!"

Yang Bo ran out from inside.

Mu Yichen turned his head, "I’ll settle this with you later."

Yang Bo, looking at the startled woman in his arms, understood the message and stopped, standing on the steps watching the two of them leave.

The murderous intent flickering in Mu Yichen’s dark eyes was clear to Yang Bo. He knew he had to explain himself to Mu Yichen, about the staff member who had detained Qin Mu without authorization...

With that in mind, Yang Bo immediately turned around and went back inside.

After arriving home, Qin Mu was placed on the bed, but her eyes couldn’t help following him intently.

"I’ll go and run a bath for you, how about you soak for a while first?"

He whispered softly.

Qin Mu didn’t speak, just watched him quietly.

Mu Yichen felt a sudden pang of heartache and moved to the head of the bed, pulling her into his embrace.

"I’m here!"

Qin Mu thought back to the year when, as a child, she was bullied at the edge of the school, and it was he who had found and rescued her, promising "I’m here!"

Unconsciously, Qin Mu snuggled tightly into his embrace but stubbornly refused to say anything.

She wasn’t even sure if he still loved her.

"Forget the bath, shall we rest instead?"

"I want to take a bath!"

Her face, already tear-stained at the mere thought of that year’s incident, unconsciously sniffled as she spoke.

She was still so stubborn, and Mu Yichen, seeing her as obstinate as a mule, resigned himself to running her bath.

In the past, she would never let him watch her bathe, but this time, she grabbed hold of him as he was about to leave the bathtub.

"Mu Yi, don’t go!"

What happened in the bathtub after that...

Indescribable!

After a tumultuous scene in the bathroom, Mu Yichen carried her out and placed her on the bed, found some ointment, and carefully applied it to the bruises on her arms, all acquired in just one day’s time.

Her face bore no marks of injury, but her body was covered with bruises.

She even joked, asking if it looked like he had pinched her.

How could he bear to?

When he applied the ointment, she didn’t make a sound, just lay on the bed, her eyes serene and unfocused, gazing into the space beneath her eyelids.

The room felt so empty in its silence, only the warmth in his palm was real and hot.

He didn’t ask anything, because he already knew that when he saw the injuries on her body, he wanted to know more, but she wouldn’t let him.

Later, after she fell asleep, he then went out to call Yang Bo.

But when he woke up the next day, she had disappeared.

Upon opening his eyes, Mu Yichen reached for her body, but found nothing.

As he fully awoke and panic set in, he saw the other side of the bed was empty, and he instinctively threw off the covers and jumped out of bed.

She wasn’t in the bathroom; he got dressed in the bedroom, put on a shirt, and then headed downstairs.

Qin Mu had gone to the Qin Family’s house. Qin Haiming had also just woken up not long ago, and upon hearing she was outside, he went out; sure enough, there she stood, wearing a down jacket but with her face already frozen red.

"Mumu, what’s wrong?"

"I need to borrow two people from you!"

Qin Mu, hands tucked into the pockets of her down jacket, raised the reason for her visit.

"Come inside and we’ll talk!"

"No! This has to be discussed here."

Qin Mu softly refused, just waiting for Qin Haiming to agree to her request.

Qin Haiming, who had donned a coat, initially wanted to bring Qin Mu inside to talk, but seeing the determination in her eyes, he resigned to standing outside with her.

After hearing Qin Mu’s intentions, he nodded.

Additionally, she said, "I visited the police station yesterday to experience their interrogation method. I think it’s necessary to report a few individuals to the mayor."

Qin Haiming looked at Qin Mu in surprise; she seemed calm and unharmed.

However, when she made that statement, it made him feel as if she had been bullied there, as if she had sustained severe injuries.

"What exactly happened? Why did you go there?"

"You’ll have to ask your wife about the specifics. Besides, the people I want to report, I hope they get their retribution today."

"Tell me!"

After Qin Mu left, Qin Haiming still stood there, thinking for a long time. Eventually, he reached into his pocket, took out his phone, and dialed a number: "Check these people for me, and give me a response after work starts."
