The breeze was cool in this autumn.
Mu Yichen frowned as he looked at the neatly dressed woman before him, who was even wearing the sa cool dress she had worn to his ho last ti, but surprisingly, Mr. Mu didn’t recognize her.
Qin Mu subconsciously lowered her gaze, wondering if Mr. Mu truly didn’t rember or was pretending not to rember.
"Oh, that one! I’m Qingxin’s classmate, Le Yuanyuan! We even dined together last ti! Right at the Mu Family!"
Le Yuanyuan hurriedly explained, masking her embarrassnt with a forced smile, explaining while carrying her bag on her back, and then seeking Qin Mu’s help with her eyes.
Qin Mu simply smiled slightly: "Yes indeed!"
Le Yuanyuan hadn’t expected Qin Mu’s response to be so lackluster but was already very grateful and looked back at Mu Yichen.
"Really? I’ve been quite busy lately, oh right, I have a eting later, so now..."
"Go on with your work! Hurry up then!"
Qin Mu looked at him again, waving her hand, urging him to walk faster.
"Huanhuan, say goodbye to Daddy!"
Mu Yichen looked down and greeted his daughter.
"I want to stay with Daddy."
Huanhuan muttered, then looked pitifully at her mommy, waiting for her to speak.
"Aunt Xiaoi has already prepared so delicious food and is waiting for you, are you sure you want to go with Daddy?"
Qin Mu asked.
Huanhuan, who had been thinking about going to eat sothing delicious with her dad, turned around and left after hearing her mom’s words. It was only before she ascended the steps that she rembered to turn back and say to Mu Yichen: "Goodbye, Daddy!"
Mu Yichen, one hand in his pocket, waved at his daughter with the other and sincerely smiled while saying goodbye to her.
"This little girl is getting more and more unruly; don’t stand outside for too long. If anything goes wrong, I will be upset."
Before leaving, Mu Yichen took another look at Qin Mu and told her.
Qin Mu heard that, and so did Le Yuanyuan.
Thus, Le Yuanyuan didn’t dare to stop Mu Yichen from leaving and, after his car had left, turned to Qin Mu: "If Mrs. Mu has the ti, may I co in and talk with you?"
"Sorry! I just happen to have no ti today; my daughter just got back from a trip, and right now, I only want to be with her, thank you."
Qin Mu finished speaking, nodded once, and then turned to walk inside.
"Mrs. Mu! I co with goodwill!"
Le Yuanyuan fixed her bag again, looking up at the woman ascending the steps.
Far away, the leaves were fluttering in the wind, ready to fall, making a rustling sound, like the noise of rainwater.
That cool shaded area didn’t have much foot traffic seeking shade anymore; instead, it seed that people now preferred places bathed in sunlight.
As Qin Mu stood at the door, Xiaoi ran over to greet her, looked outside, paused, gave Qin Mu a glance, and then closed the door after Qin Mu had entered.
Le Yuanyuan hadn’t expected Qin Mu to actually refuse her entry today.
So, without lingering in embarrassnt, she turned around and took out her phone from her bag to call Mu Qingxin: "Qingxin, can you help again? Your brother and sister-in-law aren’t willing to cooperate with my interview, and you know, this interview is very important to ."
"What can I do? You know how they are; unless they’re willing, no one can help you. Oh dear, my son is crying, I have to go, let’s talk when we have ti."
Mu Qingxin quickly ended the call.
Le Yuanyuan helplessly furrowed her brows, gently touching the screen of her phone before swiftly sliding it into her bag.
If she could not get her way here, surely there was another way she could finagle an opportunity?
Le Yuanyuan got into her car but before leaving, glanced at the car parked next to the studio, which was even less upscale than her own, then she had a sudden thought and took out her phone to snap a photo of the area.
Qin Mu, standing by the upstairs window, watched as Le Yuanyuan’s car drove away, frowning with slight annoyance.
She was worried that Le Yuanyuan might bring an unpleasant surprise to her in the near future.
When she first t Le Yuanyuan, she thought this woman was very polite and asured.
However, after a few minutes of conversation, Le Yuanyuan’s true nature revealed itself, and Qin Mu began to worry about the future.
Indeed, it wasn’t long before Le Yuanyuan showed up, seeking to do an exclusive interview with her.
It wasn’t exactly a love debt, but it was another kind of trouble.
Just then, Mu Qingxin’s call ca, and Qin Mu turned her head toward the desk, then walked over to answer: "Hello?"
Mu Qingxin was out shopping with her son and casually sat down to call Qin Mu.
"Did Le Yuanyuan co to see you again?"
Mu Qingxin asked while gently rocking the stroller.
"Yes!"
