"Once you’ve recovered, your hands and feet won’t be cold anymore, and then you can help warm the bed,"
Qin Mu lowered his gaze, feeling the taste of honey in his mouth was a bit strong, but then it gradually lted within: "I need a cup of warm water now."
"I’ll pour it for you!"
After kissing her neck forcefully, Qin Mu turned his face to let him kiss her enough before he let go.
After she drank a cup of water, the two of them went upstairs together.
Mu Yichen looked at the little girl who had already been brought to their room and unconsciously turned his head to look at the woman standing beside him: "You really do keep your promises."
"Of course!"
Qin Mu replied, not at all ashad but rather taking pride in it.
Back at the apartnt, he had said that once they were back, he would cuddle with Huanhuan to sleep.
Mu Yichen nodded and then went to the bathroom to take a shower first, while Qin Mu lie on the bed, grinning foolishly at her daughter.
"Mrs. Mu, co and take a shower,"
But just as she had lay down for a bit, Mu Yichen called her into the bathroom.
Qin Mu guessed that he had probably just heated the water and called her.
Without much to say, she went to join him for the shower.
Although sotis he was inappropriate, often taking advantage during showers, this ti he was truly behaved, scaring her for less than thirty seconds after the shower before he put on his pajamas and went outside.
Qin Mu tied up her hair and wrapped it in a towel before leaving the room.
Mu Yichen lay beside his daughter, quietly watching the sleeping Little Huanhuan.
"What are you thinking about?"
Qin Mu lied opposite him, curiously asking as she watched him gazing at their daughter lost in thought.
"I’m thinking about Mu Qingxin,"
Qin Mu thought of Mu Qingxin, and knowing too little to ask more, just listened quietly.
"This girl has been out for a few years now. Seems like she doesn’t plan on coming back after finding a man,"
"Are you saying your sister started dating early?"
"It’s not about dating early, but it is indeed a little early,"
He had intended to find soone suitable for her in the city in these two years, but she had gone to a different place on her own...
And because she was afraid her parents would object, she has yet to dare to co back.
"Then she must really love that person," Qin Mu propped her hands beneath her face and said thoughtfully, her mind drifting far away.
"What makes you think so?"
The dark eagle eyes looked at the woman across from him, steadfastly catching the loneliness in her eyes.
"Because if it wasn’t for loving soone deeply, how could she be willing to stay away from ho for so many years? She must really miss you, but she’s also afraid of never seeing that man again."
Once a woman is torn between family and love, especially at a young age, she’s likely to choose the man.
"What about you? Did you stay in Rongcheng because of ?"
He suddenly asked insistently.
Qin Mu finally snapped back to reality, looked into his deep eyes, took a deep breath unconsciously, and then smiled: "Yes!"
Mu Yichen felt that although the word was said confidently, the actual probability was very small, but he wasn’t enthusiastic: "Let’s sleep."
"Mm, goodnight!"
Qin Mu continued to smile, then silently closed her eyes.
So topics between them were best left touched upon lightly.
Just as Mu Yichen didn’t know why she suddenly coaxed him later on and made up with him.
Was it because she realized she loved him, or just out of guilt for all he had done?
However, no matter the reason, he was very glad that the choice she made was to be with him.
On the day she didn’t answer his calls or his ssages, he knew she was working late in the studio before he went to find her. He knew she must have been overthinking again, hesitating. That day he was really scared, if she retreated to how she was when she first ca to Rongcheng, if she started rejecting the feeling of being with him again...
He had deeply experienced her coldness more than once, so he truly didn’t want a next ti.
Fortunately, in the end, she chose to make him happy.
He thought, day after day, year after year, he would always win her heart and hear her sincerely say she loved him.
The night grew deeper and quieter; he could even hear the air gently operating in the room. Watching his daughter sleeping soundly next to him and the woman he loved most, he felt imnsely satisfied, yet he was reluctant to fall asleep.
That night, Qin Mu had a dream where Mu Qingxin suddenly ca back.
She couldn’t see the face clearly but only watched the figure dressed in a long skirt and a knitted jacket, with blue canvas shoes on her feet.
Perhaps it was true that what one thinks about in the day, they dream of at night.
When the sky lightened with the first glimr of dawn, so of those asleep began to wake.
On the streets, sanitation workers were already sweeping, with a gentle breeze blowing, and they wore thick uniforms, heads bowed, diligently sweeping the roads they must have swept thousands of tis over.
