CHAPTER 1144: 324 TIME LIMIT_2

"You’re back!"

Mu Yichen sat down first, habitually not greeting anyone. The old man glanced up and, seeing the girl in the pink coat sitting beside him, was quite pleased.

Qin Mu grinned at her, but couldn’t make a sound, so she didn’t speak.

"Mumu, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

The old man became a bit anxious seeing her just smiling.

Qin Mu quickly shook her head to indicate she wasn’t unwell.

"You even put on makeup today, so you should be in a good mood, right?"

Feng Fanghua looked at Qin Mu, curiously asking, seemingly a bit jealous of the old man’s concern for his daughter-in-law.

Qin Mu nodded to show she was in a good mood, then her phone rang from her pocket. Qin Mu instinctively took out her phone, then looked up at everyone and said, "I’ll go upstairs for a bit."

The voice was barely audible.

The people in the sofa curiously watched her. Her lips moved just now, but that voice? Was it made or not?

Are they too old to hear clearly anymore?

Mu Yichen kept his head down. When Qin Mu sat beside him just now, he was looking down, and he still was, engrossed in his phone.

The elders glanced at him again: "Mu Yichen, what’s going on with you two? Have you not made up after a fight? Did she find her sister last night?"

"Her sister? Didn’t she claim she has no sister?"

Mu Yichen lifted his head, full of disdain.

"What are you saying? Isn’t your wife on good terms with Qin Mingzhu now?"

Feng Fanghua glanced at him, realizing something was off.

Mu Yichen said nothing more, feeling irritable; he glanced toward the stairs, then got up: "I’m going up to change clothes."

Feng Fanghua...

Mu Zihao sat quietly beside Feng Fanghua, sensing something was amiss.

The old man sighed: "This kid has quite the temper!"

Feng Fanghua and Mu Zihao both looked at the old man.

"Did I say something wrong?"

The old man snorted, then went to the door to get some air! Actually, to smoke secretly.

"I’ll go check on Dad!"

Mu Zihao, seeing the old man leave, quickly notified Feng Fanghua and followed him outside. Smoking wasn’t allowed at home, only outside and discreetly.

Feng Fanghua hadn’t realized, and by the time she figured it out, the father-son duo had already smoked most of one behind the building.

Back in the room, Mu Yichen found Qin Mu wasn’t there, but could hear noises from the bathroom, so he began changing clothes.

In the bathroom, Qin Mu was texting Qin Haiming, telling him she had a cold and her throat hurt.

Leader: "Drink plenty of water! Keep taking your medicine! If you don’t like capsules, try granules!"

Eldest daughter: "Okay!"

Leader was what Qin Mu had saved Qin Haiming as in her phone, and Eldest daughter was how Qin Haiming saved Qin Mu in his.

Qin Mu thought for a moment, then sent him another message: "How is Mingzhu?"

Leader: "Much better now, her husband is upstairs with her, though she doesn’t talk much. Everything else is normal."

Qin Mingzhu doesn’t talk much, is there anyone left who does?

Of course, that was the impression before. After what happened last night, who knows what things are like?

Qin Mu: "That’s good!"

Qin Mingzhu was depressed?

If in the past, if anything happened to Qin Mingzhu, she’d come to find trouble with her first.

And this time?

Qin Mingzhu hadn’t even come to her, not even a phone call questioning her.

Wang Huanyu said over the phone that Mingzhu found a business card dropped by that man at the scene, and it was Qin Mu’s card.

Qin Mu thought, did Qin Mingzhu just stop believing her like that?

All because of a business card?

Qin Mu couldn’t believe it and didn’t want to believe it.

After washing her hands, she leaned against the sink, texting for a while, then stepped out, finding Mu Yichen’s head in the sofa.

Of course, Mu Yichen was lying entirely on the sofa, but she could only see his black hair.

Qin Mu’s heart ached sharply, then she turned and headed for the door.

She left after all!

Mu Yichen set down the phone in his hands and sighed helplessly.

This was clearly a conspiracy, his irritated breaths coming forcefully, feeling something slowly well up in his chest.

After dinner, Qin Mu went to find her medicine, and as Mu Yichen returned to the room, he smelled the cold medicine granules’ scent, standing at the door watching her sit by the bed taking medicine.

She even brought up a large thermos, it seemed tonight she wouldn’t need him to fetch water for her again.
