At bedti, Qin Mu was still upset, pacing irritably around the bedroom.
Mu Yichen ca out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe and, seeing her upset, he walked over and gently embraced her from behind.
"Alright! Mu Qingxin didn’t have this treatnt when she was little, you should be happy!"
Mu Yichen rembered when Mu Qingxin was young, if that girl dared to put things around carelessly, Feng Fanghua, with her temperant, could criticize her for half an hour, maybe even longer.
"Who wants this treatnt? Mom always spoils Huanhuan, how will Huanhuan know how many flaws she has? Every ti I end up compromising; at this rate, I really can’t manage the child!"
Although Qin Mu felt comfortable being held by him, she was truly upset and honestly shared her thoughts with Mu Yichen.
"Is this such a big deal? Even if our daughter doesn’t learn anything, couldn’t she still have a good life? You’ve been with for so many years, and you still manage to leave the kitchen in chaos. Have I ever complained about you?"
Mu Yichen softly asked her, patiently, with neither urgency nor lightness, gradually extinguishing the fla of her frustration.
"Am I that bad? Every ti I leave the kitchen in chaos?"
Qin Mu frowned, asking him unhappily, glancing at him from the corner of her eye.
"Forgot the good deed you did at Jing Feng’s apartnt? All our friends know you can’t cook."
Mu Yichen kindly reminded her.
Qin Mu...
After that incident, she indeed no longer needed to help in the kitchen at a friend’s house, but that didn’t an she was terrible. After all, Huanhuan and Chengcheng have eaten her cooking.
"Besides, there’s no need to worry about this too soon, right?"
Mu Yichen softly coaxed Qin Mu.
Qin Mu, of course, understood that there was plenty of ti in the future; she just feared that if the future was as it is now, what would happen.
Feng Fanghua spoiled those two kids to the point that it drove her crazy. Leaning in Mu Yichen’s arms, Qin Mu looked up at him: "I don’t care, we must teach Huanhuan to be independent, you need to be on my side."
"A beauty trap? I agree!"
Mu Yichen’s dark eyes gazed at her, and he swiftly scooped her up, carrying her horizontally towards the bed.
It seems like sumr was revealing itself, the evening breeze so warm, inviting people to wear beautiful clothes to lovely places, and have fun.
Though the world outside was brightly lit, though the night outside was charming, Mu Yichen was already cuddling with Qin Mu in bed; they didn’t necessarily need to do anything, just being together, even bickering, was such a joy.
But just as they were happily chatting in bed, Mu Yichen’s phone suddenly rang.
In a certain well-known club’s private room, even though it was packed with people, it was dead silent.
Zhang Hongyun held her phone to her ear, making a call to Mu Yichen.
When Mu Yichen answered, he frowned and coldly asked, "What is it?"
"Mr. Mu, it’s like this: before Secretary Xi left work, she asked to send you an email, but my phone had an issue, and the email got lost, so..."
Zhang Hongyun held her breath; she didn’t expect Mu Yichen to answer. Her friends next to her all had their ears pricked up, making her exceptionally nervous, almost unable to speak.
"Got it!"
Then Mu Yichen lightly replied and hung up the phone, murmuring to Qin Mu with so displeasure: "It was Zhang Hongyun!"
Qin Mu was also surprised, her eyes slightly widening in response.
After Zhang Hongyun put down the phone, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her friends around her were also on the edge.
"Hongyun, your boss answered your call at this hour, maybe he is interested in you!"
Friend A teased.
"Not necessarily, he didn’t say much in total, maybe he thought it was work related?"
Friend B said a bit critically.
"Although we don’t know if this boss is interested in Hongyun, the fact that he can answer calls so late might an he’s restless too!"
Friend C speculated.
"What boss is ever calm!"
Suddenly, Friend D laughed.
"I think you all are overthinking it, it’s normal for a boss to call a subordinate so late. Work matters are utmost important. Soone like Mu Yichen should understand that."
The girl who always lived with Zhang Hongyun saw everyone was so eager to encourage Zhang Hongyun and felt a bit uncomfortable, so she voiced her honest opinion.
"What’s been up with you lately? You keep throwing cold water on !"
Zhang Hongyun looked at her and asked softly; they had grown up together and had a good relationship, but recently Zhang Hongyun felt as if this girl didn’t like her. She wondered if it was because the girl envied her for working close to Mu Yichen.
