His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 726: 202 Wedding (2)_3

Qin Mu subconsciously slipped his hands into the back pockets of his pants and then, touching his own behind, he walked away.

Uh-huh, there was always this feeling of being about to get kicked.

After returning to the room, he quietly closed the door behind him but didn’t hurry forward, instead walking slowly.

Qin Mu reached the sofa to look at him, nearly blurting out, "I’ll sleep on the sofa tonight."

Because he had remembered the promise they had made before, no matter how much they argued, they should never sleep back to back, let alone stay out all night, so...

Endure it!

Qin Mu sat on the sofa and happened to see his phone, so he picked it up and started fiddling with it.

Mu Yichen stood to the side watching: "Zhuo Wen is getting married!"

He said in a low voice.

Qin Mu’s gaze faltered, and then he looked back at his phone screen.

"I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you’d overthink it."

Mu Yichen added.

"I don’t think there’s any need for us to argue over an imaginary third person. She has a good relationship with her fiancé. I know that some past incidents have caused you to lack trust in others, but..."

"Do you think I’m mentally ill?"

Qin Mu looked up at him, his piercing gaze meeting his ink-like deep eyes.

Mu Yichen was suddenly at a loss for words, watching her burst of anger and the flickering of tears in her eyes.

"What do you think I’m afraid of?"

Qin Mu asked him, deeply hurt by his earlier words.

"Want to argue?"

Mu Yichen asked her in a low voice.

Qin Mu’s eyebrows knitted together. These three words seemed light, but they were, in fact, heavy.

"I’m going to take a shower!"

Mu Yichen declared.

But as soon as he reached the bathroom, he heard the door of the room being forcefully closed. She had left.

The promise to never sleep in separate beds turned out to be worthless at times.

Mu Yichen gently closed the bathroom door, actually quite angry at Qin Mu’s behavior.

But thinking about how difficult their journey together had been...

Qin Mu went to the study, only to find Grandpa there, reading a book with his reading glasses on. The old man also looked at her curiously.

"Grandpa! I’ll be leaving soon!"

"No, Mumu, come here. My eyes aren’t clear anymore; why don’t you help me read for a while?"

Qin Mu, having no place to go, immediately nodded and went over.

Then, she began to read to the old man, who relaxed seeing the granddaughter-in-law’s face no longer as sad as when she had entered.

Only after Qin Mu finished reading the Chapter did Grandpa ask her affectionately, "Did Yichen bully you again?"

Qin Mu gave a resigned smile: "No! Grandpa, don’t worry about us."

"Silly girl!"

The old man still looked at her with doting eyes. Suddenly, Qin Mu couldn’t help but throw herself into his arms, "Grandpa, could it really be that there’s something wrong with me?"

"There’s nothing wrong with my precious granddaughter-in-law. It’s that boy Mu Yichen. Wait until tomorrow, and I’ll teach him a lesson for you, okay?"

The grandpa gently patted her shoulder.

"Okay!"

Qin Mu agreed, feeling somewhat comforted in her heart.

The grandpa didn’t know how his grandson could have upset his girl so much, it seemed like she had been holding it in for several days now.

But Qin Mu didn’t cry for long. By the time she returned to the room, an hour had passed, and Mu Yichen was waiting for her at the door, his heart aching and anxious at the sight of her red-rimmed eyes, though he pretended not to notice.

Qin Mu hadn’t expected him to be standing at the door in pajamas, casually scrolling through his phone while waiting for her?

After she entered, Qin Mu felt as if a knife were pressed against her back again.

"Did you go to complain to Grandpa?"

Mu Yichen asked her.

Qin Mu didn’t say a word to him; she just grabbed her pajamas and headed for the bathroom.

Mu Yichen...

It was really because it wasn’t the time, and if he forced her in any other way now, she would probably feel even more wronged and even more convinced that he was bullying her, which would kill the mood completely.

So Mu Yichen could only restrain himself.

Thankfully, no matter how much they fought, they were still in the same room.

After her shower, Qin Mu returned to bed but directly took the spot farthest from him, sticking to the edge of the bed, she covered herself with the blanket and lay sideways to sleep.

Mu Yichen just felt a good portion of his blanket fall off.

Yet, he could only let her pull it away.

No matter how much she ignored him, he couldn’t really leave her behind.

All his life, he was the one who got left behind.

So Mu Yichen bowed his head again and continued to check his emails on the phone until a message came through: "We’re going mountain climbing tomorrow, do you want to come along?"

Mu Yichen thought of Qin Mu and replied: "I’m not free."

Zhuo Wen guessed something, so even as he lay on his bed, he sent another message back: "Did your wife find out we’re still in Rongcheng? Is she upset over nothing again?"
