CHAPTER 1332: CHAPTER 378: FORCEFUL

"Hmm! Your brother is already asleep, why aren’t you?"

"I still want to hear Mommy finish the story, but Mommy never finishes it."

When Mu Yichen squatted down, he heard Huanhuan say that with such a helpless tone, like a very sensible little daughter.

Mu Yichen turned to look at Qin Mu, who was holding a child and still holding a storybook, and suddenly felt her wrist aching. So were they both just misunderstanding each other? Turns out they were both waiting for each other to call it a night.

"Give Mu Chengyang to me!"

Mu Yichen said nothing, he just took his son from his wife’s arms.

After Qin Mu handed Chengcheng to Mu Yichen, Huanhuan looked up at her mom: "Mom, are we going to sleep too?"

"Of course!"

Qin Mu responded softly.

Huanhuan turned her head to watch her father leave the room, then quietly climbed to Qin Mu’s ear: "Mom, can we finish the story?"

The man already outside the door didn’t hear what they were saying, but actually, even though Huanhuan was speaking in Qin Mu’s ear, her breath kept making Qin Mu quite uncomfortable, and her voice wasn’t very quiet.

Qin Mu thought to herself, is she really whispering, whispering.

"Then let’s talk about it in bed!"

Qin Mu softly suggested.

Huanhuan nodded and turned to climb onto the soft bed herself.

Qin Mu watched her climb quite quickly, this little girl has learned quite a few skills over the years.

Huanhuan automatically lay inside, leaving the outside spot for her mom, and quietly waited for her mom to continue the story beside her.

Later on, Mu Yichen was standing outside the door, everything around was very quiet. Even though the TV on the first floor was on, because the house was big enough, the sound didn’t quite reach upstairs. The soft voice of the woman telling the story in the room reached his ears.

Qin Mu read more than half of the book, Huanhuan lay beside her listening, getting sleepier and eventually falling asleep by accident.

Mu Yichen glanced inside, then quietly walked in. Qin Mu tucked Huanhuan in properly, just about to get off the bed when he suddenly picked her up.

Being lifted into the air was a little nerve-wracking until she saw his face, then she relaxed a bit: "Why were you waiting outside?"

"Waiting for Mrs. Mu!"

Mu Yichen replied softly, carrying her quietly out.

Qin Mu gazed at the man holding her, her eyes tender but sharp: "Did you manage to please Grandpa?"

"Yes!"

How could dare not to please him?

The patriarch at home, the whole family serves him.

"Still quite resourceful, what about the matter of Jing Qing’s marriage?"

"If she wants to bring the child back quietly to her parents’ home, that’s her business, but not anything else."

In Mu Yichen’s heart, there was no room for negotiation.

Last time at the old man’s birthday, Jing Qing returned discreetly, but at the banquet that night, it was quite high-profile, a person reported dead in the newspaper shouldn’t exist.

"I’m not keen on getting involved in this matter, truthfully, these things mean nothing to me."

"Really mean nothing?"

Mu Yichen gave her a glance.

"With you, nothing else matters!"

Qin Mu looked at him, actually a form of confession.

Mu Yichen’s dark eyes looking ahead, listening to Mrs. Mu’s confession, he felt endless strength in his heart.

The two went back to their room and directly got into bed. Mu Yichen hugged her in his arms, and softly said: "In the future, if Grandpa and Mom and Dad ask you to do things you shouldn’t be doing, just tell me in advance, I’ll act with you in front of them, and then talk with them alone, okay?"

"Wouldn’t that make me two-faced?"

Qin Mu felt a bit disagreeable.

"Better than us fighting as a couple."

Mu Yichen hugged her and reminded.

"I reject your way."

She was as straightforward as a fool, but Mu Yichen pressed his forehead against hers, looked at her as if she were a fool, but didn’t call her one.

Qin Mu only saw in his eyes the full love he had for her, didn’t even realize he was saying she was silly with his eyes.

——

The next morning Mu Yichen personally went to the Jing Family once, and the maid at Jing Family was a little excited to see Mu Yichen after such a long time, receiving his gifts at the door, warmly greeting him: "Young Master Chen, it has been a long time since you last came, please come in! Master, the young master from the Mu Family has come to see you!"

The maid hurried inside to tell the old master, while Mu Yichen unhurriedly followed behind to their living room.

Every time Mu Yichen came, he always found their place a bit cold.
