Chapter 581: Ao Jiao Like a Queen_1

"That would be for the best! The lesson from last time must have been profound for you two, and with such a good example here, Yichen, don’t say I, your father-in-law, look down on you, but truly, don’t disappoint me, alright?"

"Understood!"

Mu Yichen agreed.

Qin Haiming nodded, then turned to Qin Mu and said, "Come over to the house tomorrow, I have something else I need to discuss with you alone."

Qin Haiming wasn’t trying to disrespect the Mu Family, but he was genuinely concerned for his daughter.

"Alright!"

Qin Mu obediently agreed.

After the dinner party, Qin Haiming returned home, only to slump tiredly on the sofa.

He had frequently been dreaming of the scene where Qin Mu’s mother died in a car accident, and he was truly worried that Qin Mu would follow in her mother’s footsteps.

Or was it because once Qin Mu mentioned she had thought about suicide, and since then, he’d been having such dreams?

Qin Haiming couldn’t figure it out, but at this moment, the silence of the large but empty house made his heart panic.

All those good and bad things were replaying in his mind over and over.

It was almost as if he had lived this life for nothing!

Only today did he realize what is most important to him!

—

Qin Mu and Mu Yichen returned to the old house with the elders. After arriving, Qin Mu went to Huanhuan’s room, but soon her parents called her into her grandfather’s room.

Mu Yichen, seeing the seriousness of the situation, frowned and said, "It’s getting late! Shouldn’t everyone be resting?"

"What exactly is going on with Su Zhen?"

Feng Fanghua asked first, standing by the wall with a stern look.

"I swear, I have nothing to do with that woman, it was strictly for work."

He could only tell the truth.

"There are no outsiders here, just tell your grandfather the truth. Do you really have nothing to do with this woman?"

"I swear!"

Mu Yichen, upon hearing his grandfather’s words, couldn’t help but solemnly reiterate, suddenly feeling that the family had called him over on such serious business just to accuse him.

But whom were they asking this for, that he had offended?

"If you make that girl sad again, it’s not just her father who won’t let you off, I, as her grandfather, won’t forgive you either. Got it?" the old man instructed.

"Got it!" Mu Yichen nodded, suppressing a laugh.

"If you stir up any more trouble, you’re really going to disgrace your parents... You must have heard what the Mayor of Qin City said tonight, he was really angry about the sudden mention of Su Zhen. How long is this woman going to stay at your hotel?"

"That, I can’t say!"

Mu Yichen furrowed his brows, how would he know how long that woman intended to stay?

However, his subordinates had already given her a warning, so if she dared to cause trouble in the future, then he would have the freedom to deal with her as he saw fit.

When he returned to his room, he saw that Qin Mu had already tucked Huanhuan into bed and was lying between them.

Mu Yichen’s dark eyes looked at Qin Mu, who was holding back laughter; she seemed completely unaffected by Su Zhen, as if her entire heart and eyes were filled only with him, only this family.

He sat down beside her, lying next to her and their daughter, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you laughing like a sly fox?"

"Hehe! No, no! I just wanted to say, let’s let Huanhuan sleep with us tonight!"

"If it’s just occasionally, I’ll accept!"

Mu Yichen said.

Qin Mu looked at him in surprise; Mr. Mu was really easy-going tonight.

"I’m going to take a bath, and then head to bed if I get sleepy."

He stretched out his hand, caressing her hair over their daughter.

"Okay!"

Qin Mu agreed, watching him get out of bed, go to the wardrobe to grab his pajamas, and then head to the bathroom.

She quietly lay beside her daughter, enjoying the bliss of her daughter’s sleep, and admiring his tall figure from behind.

Wow! Every time he took off his clothes like that, she thought he looked incredibly cool.

But she didn’t expect that, within just ten minutes, she would actually fall asleep.

Mu Yichen, dressed in his pajamas, came out and saw that the mother and daughter were asleep on the bed. He couldn’t help but have a slightly twitching brow and a rich expression in his eyes.

He seemed to be helplessly amused that she fell asleep so quickly, yet he was also moved that she and their daughter were right there by his side.

Mu Yichen lay beside his wife and daughter, thinking about what Qin Haiming had said to him at the hotel earlier that day, and he knew he couldn’t let Qin Mu be exposed to any more danger.

Thinking back on how they, as a couple, had been calculated against but had been lucky, he knew that nobody could guarantee that luck would follow them for a lifetime. Hence, being prepared, striking first to gain an advantage, was often the best way to protect oneself.
