Mu Qingxin and Qin Mu whispered to each other, which was a bit taxing for Jiang Yan and Mu Yichen.
"But, bro, are you and your wife separated?"
Jiang Yan couldn’t help but ask.
Mu Yichen glanced at him sidelong, his look seemingly saying, "Brat, what are you blabbering about?"
But afterward, when Mu Yichen looked at the woman whispering with Mu Qingxin, he said, "Probably!"
He was actually unable to refute it.
He’d moved back to the apartnt while she and the kids stayed here.
But that was probably for the best, seeing that she didn’t lack care at ho.
After dinner, the elders joined Grandfather for a ga of chess; Uncle Wang played a round and even won, making Grandfather flush red: "Uncle Wang, your chess skills are too formidable! When do you have the ti to play, always driving around?"
"When the mayor is busy, I play chess on my mobile phone in the car."
Uncle Wang said with a candid smile.
"Ah, I underestimated you, underestimated indeed."
Grandfather slapped his thigh, sighing in distress.
Late into the evening, when Uncle Wang and Qin Haiming were about to leave, everyone went to see them out, but Qin Haiming imdiately said with a smile, "Let Mumu escort us; everyone else, please stay, thank you so much for tonight."
Qin Haiming had paid attention to his daughter and son-in-law all night, noticing they not only sat apart but didn’t communicate at all. Seeing sothing seemingly unresolved in his daughter’s eyes, he was deeply concerned, so he asked Qin Mu to co along.
"I’ll go then."
Qin Mu said and walked forward.
Mu Yichen imdiately looked toward the maid and quietly said, "Quick, get the young madam’s coat."
"Yes!"
The maid hurried inside to fetch Qin Mu’s coat, and just as Qin Mu reached the door, the maid rushed over to give it to her.
"Thank you!"
Qin Mu thanked her gratefully; it was only by the door that she felt the cold, sothing Qin Haiming, preoccupied with his own concerns, had forgotten.
The three of them walked out together, Qin Haiming not treating Uncle Wang as an outsider, so he directly asked her, "Haven’t you and Yichen reconciled since the last fight?"
"Hmm!"
She pondered for a long ti, feeling that any explanation she wanted to give seed inappropriate, and indeed, they were genuinely at odds now.
So, in the end, she could only nod in agreent.
"Is it still because of Zhuo Wen? Have you told Yichen what you’re thinking?"
Qin Haiming frowned slightly with concern, but his eyes were full of warmth for his daughter.
"This ti it’s a bit serious, but I think we should be able to get past it."
Qin Mu thought for a mont and replied with her head bowed.
Actually, she didn’t want to worry Qin Haiming; since he learned the truth about the past, he had been wholeheartedly concerned about her.
Qin Haiming nodded, "That’s good to hear; if it gets too much for you, co ho and stay for a few days. Your room will always be there, alright?"
"Okay!"
Qin Mu nodded.
Even though she hadn’t called him "Dad" again, at that mont, she had no grievances against this father.
"The young lady is very prudent, and I’m sure she and the young master will get along just fine."
Uncle Wang chid in from the side.
"Let’s hope for your auspicious words! You’ve only recently recovered, so take care of your diet and drink less."
Qin Mu rembered Uncle Wang had indulged in a few too many drinks, so she reminded him with a smile.
Qin Haiming also looked back at Uncle Wang, "You should drink so dicine when you get ho tonight."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Uncle Wang imdiately nodded in agreent, head bowed.
"How about walking us two old n to the door?"
They were still a bit far from the door; Qin Mu looked ahead and then continued walking with him.
Compared to going back inside, she preferred walking out.
The cold wind blew, invigorating her, and being outside, not having to face that man, was sohow more comfortable for her now.
"Miss, do co ho when you have the ti, otherwise it really is too quiet there."
Uncle Wang glanced at the car where Qin Haiming had already gotten in and was sitting in the back.
"Okay!"
Qin Mu agreed, her gaze skirting the car’s interior, not daring to look directly.
Only after they had gone did she walk forward a few steps and then stood from afar, watching.
Being able to get along as they were now felt incredible to her.
Inside the car, the two aging n were discussing, "You know, you are luckier than even , her father."
"Where’s that coming from?"
Uncle Wang chuckled.
"Hmpf! Where from? When has she ever spoken a caring word to ? Yet every ti she sees you, she has to remind you of this and that."
Qin Haiming looked outside the window, where it was pitch dark, but in the reflection on the window, he could still see the glimr in his own eyes.
