But soon, she found herself with no appetite and poured everything out, cleaned the bowl thoroughly, and placed it in the cupboard above. She then left her apartnt carrying the trash and her bag.
When Qin Mu stepped outside, she felt as if soone was watching her. Not far off, a pricey off-road vehicle was parked. Qin Mu didn’t know whose car it was or whether there was soone inside. After throwing the trash into the bin, she got into her own small car.
The off-road vehicle started up shortly after hers left but was quickly blocked by another off-road vehicle just a short distance away.
The person inside braked abruptly, angrily staring at the person erging from that car, his dear younger brother.
It seed his brother was also very angry, his facial expression exceptionally cold and stern. Wang Huanyu hadn’t seen such indifference from his brother in a long ti.
Qin Mu drove back to the Mu Family ho, where everyone seed to be unusually gathered tonight.
Even Mu Yichen was there!
Mu Yichen had just co downstairs holding Huanhuan, and his eyes, which had been gentle when looking at his daughter, turned cold the mont he saw her.
Qin Mu suddenly felt as though she couldn’t move forward, gripping her bag tightly: "Grandpa! Dad! Mom!"
Huanhuan, now in new clothes and carried out by her father, squird out of his arms and ran toward her mother when she saw her, bumping into her legs. Feng Fanghua, who was sitting nearby, stood up in fright: "Oh my, my dear little ancestor, you can’t be this naughty now!"
Huanhuan then looked at Qin Mu with a pitiful gaze.
Qin Mu didn’t dare say anything else, only gently touching Huanhuan’s head to comfort her.
Mu Yichen, hands in pockets, walked over from inside, but not towards her. Instead, he sat down in an unoccupied single-seat sofa.
Qin Mu walked over, head lowered, as the old master asked with concern, "Where have you been recently? You’ve lost so much weight!"
"I haven’t lost that much!"
Qin Mu said, smiling subtly, to the old master.
"Sit down! It’s been almost three months, from now on don’t neglect yourself. If you don’t want to live alone with Mu Yichen in the apartnt, co to the family ho. Whatever you want to eat, the family chef will prepare it for you right away!"
"Okay!"
The old master, leaning in his armchair, was full of sincerity as he spoke, and Qin Mu smiled and agreed.
"It’s good you’re back! I think the three of you should stay here tonight. Your apartnt hasn’t been lived in or cleaned for a while, and everything here has been prepared for you!"
Mu Zihao said to Qin Mu.
Qin Mu’s heart fluttered, and she instinctively looked at Mu Yichen.
But as soon as her gaze went his way, Mu Yichen, seeing her intense look, turned his attention elsewhere, Qin Mu...
"Old master, the al is ready!"
The kitchen maid ca out to report.
"Then let’s eat and talk!"
With that command from the old master, he stood up and walked forward.
Mu Yichen, seated on the sofa with his legs propped up, didn’t move but watched the woman who was preparing to follow the elders upstairs with his dark eyes.
Mu Yichen then lowered his gaze and stood up, rushing ahead to lift Huanhuan and carry her to the dining room first.
Feng Fanghua was startled by his sudden action yet didn’t say anything, just sighed helplessly: "How rash, at his age!"
"What age is he? We are the ones who are old!"
Mu Zihao whispered to Feng Fanghua.
"Don’t talk about being old in front of this old man!"
The old master said as he took his seat.
Everyone...
"Great-grandpa is not old at all!"
Huanhuan, her words learned from sowhere, said tenderly to the old master as she sat down.
The old master’s face lit up with joy hearing this, and Mu Zihao and Feng Fanghua also felt happy because of their granddaughter’s thoughtful comnt.
This al seed to grow less gloomy because of the little girl’s few seemingly innocent words.
The old master, looking at everyone present with so emotion, nodded thoughtfully and then, as usual, had soone pour him a glass of white liquor.
The dinner went on for quite a while, and after finishing, Qin Mu wanted to be alone, but she did not dare make a sound as the elders had not given permission.
It appeared that fresh fruit had been specially prepared for her. Qin Mu sat quietly, eating.
Mu Yichen was on the phone upstairs. Half an hour later, he went to their main bedroom, but seeing the bed empty, he furrowed his brows.
Was she still downstairs making forced conversation?
Knowing she was reluctant and too embarrassed to leave, he went to the stairway entrance: "You!"
Everyone downstairs looked up to where he was standing high above. His dark eyes gazed down.
Who knew whom he was calling?
But soone’s heart trembled fiercely!
"Co upstairs!"
He said blandly, then turned and went back to the room.
Everyone looked at Qin Mu, and the old master said, "He’s calling you, go on!"
Qin Mu would have preferred to stay with them, but she nodded and stood up nonetheless.
Huanhuan, sitting on her grandmother’s lap, said as her mother was about to go upstairs, "Mommy, good night!"
Qin Mu bade her good night and headed upstairs. She actually had so issues she wanted to discuss with him, so she resolutely went to find him.
