Sigh!
Qin Mu heaved a deep sigh within her heart.
——
Two days later, Qin Mu’s wedding dress arrived, but it was sent directly to the workshop.
Qin Mu and Xiaoi, along with a few others, gathered around, barely daring to breathe heavily as they opened the box.
It had been a long ti since they had seen a work by JY, and they were all eager.
"Wow! It’s so exquisite!"
Xiaoi couldn’t help but reach out to touch it.
"Don’t touch it carelessly!"
Qin Mu imdiately slapped her hand away, thinking to herself that this was the first official gift from her master, which she had to cherish and keep safe.
"You’re so stingy!"
Xiaoi couldn’t help but mumble.
Qin Mu took the wedding dress out of the box with her own hands, and then everyone helped to unfold it.
It was simply too beautiful for words.
But at this mont, she...
Qin Mu took a serious look at her belly and then turned to Xiaoi, saying, "Co with to try it on!"
It was said that Jian Yan had specifically consulted with the doctor for her to wear a wedding dress on Christmas, regarding the dinsions of her lower abdon and such.
"Aren’t you calling Mu Yichen? Don’t you want him to be present for the first fitting?"
"I’ll surprise him at the right ti!"
Qin Mu thought to herself that a woman with a big pregnant belly, no matter how she dressed, could hardly surprise a man?
So she never thought to let Mu Yichen co to see it.
But her colleagues in the workshop got to witness its splendor.
——
Their wedding was imminent, and Zhuo Wen had already stayed at the Mu Family ho for a week, showing no signs of leaving.
One afternoon when Qin Mu was resting at ho, Zhuo Wen ca back from outside and went to her happily, saying, "I might have to stay here longer. Mrs. Mu, you wouldn’t mind, would you?"
"Has sothing happened?"
Qin Mu asked curiously.
"Yes! The client wasn’t satisfied, so we have to start over. But I’m used to this by now; it’s just that I’m troubling you..."
Zhuo Wen finished speaking, went around to sit beside her, and looked at her with all sincerity.
Qin Mu just smiled at her; until today, Qin Mu was still subconsciously on guard against her.
"It seems that I will have to leave after your wedding."
Zhuo Wen smiled again, as if looking forward to this.
"By the way, I heard that your master has already sent you your wedding dress. Can I see it? It’s a work by JY! I really want to have a preview."
Zhuo Wen said, and then gently massaged Qin Mu’s shoulders.
Qin Mu instinctively dodged: "The wedding dress is at the workshop; I didn’t bring it back. I’ll show you when I do."
Zhuo Wen was startled, sowhat surprised by Qin Mu’s sudden avoidance.
"Alright!"
Qin Mu still smiled: "Sorry, I’m not too comfortable with people touching ."
"Oh! I won’t touch you in the future then!"
Zhuo Wen said as she took her hands off Qin Mu’s shoulders, smiling awkwardly.
That night, Qin Mu tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, feeling as though she was about to run out of breath.
Mu Yichen was not in the room; she glanced at the empty other side and then struggled to get up.
When the door was opened from the outside, Mu Yichen’s sharp gaze caught sight of her struggling to get out of bed, and he imdiately rushed over: "What’s wrong?"
"Water! Cold water."
Qin Mu said in a low voice.
"Wait here!"
Mu Yichen said and then went to help her pour water from the sofa.
At one in the morning, the pregnant woman fainted and was rushed to the hospital.
——
The wedding was postponed.
Due to her indisposition, on Christmas Eve night, as snow fell, Mumu gave birth to a boy weighing 6 jin and 2 liang (approximately 3.1 kilograms), nad Mu Chengyang.
The baby was taken to the incubator imdiately after birth, leaving only her and Mu Yichen alone in the room.
Qin Mu remained unconscious, Mu Yichen stayed by her side the entire ti.
When the door was gently pushed open from the outside, Mu Yichen didn’t notice until a coat was quietly draped over his shoulders.
Mu Yichen’s hand had been holding Qin Mu’s the whole ti without daring to let go, his head bowed until that coat was placed on his shoulders.
"Do you want to rest for a bit? I’ll stay here with her for you."
Zhuo Wen bent down and whispered to him from beside him.
"No need!"
Mu Yichen refused in a low voice.
Qin Mu wouldn’t want to wake up and find him absent. Besides, he had missed being there once before; he couldn’t possibly miss it again.
"But you’re so tired right now. If you break down, who’s going to take care of her tomorrow?"
Zhuo Wen continued to explain softly, hoping she could stay.
"I’m not that fragile!"
Mu Yichen’s mouth moved slightly, he looked up at the woman on the bed covered in sweat, then turned to get a tissue from a cabinet to wipe her forehead.
"Let !"
