His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 1548 - 434: Mrs. Mu Was Taken Advantage Of by Mr. Mu (Part 2)
At noon, Qin Mu got off work and went to a simple lunch near the hospital with Helian Hao.
As soon as she sat down, she ran into Mrs. Wang from the Cheongsam Association and Mrs. Li. The two of them stopped immediately, staring at her curiously as if they had seen some rare animal, and asked, "Isn’t this Mrs. Mu!"
Qin Mu looked up and then politely stood up, "You two ladies are also having lunch here!"
"Yes! We just finished a gynecology check-up and came over for a simple meal!"
Mrs. Wang didn’t think there was anything unusual about saying that, so she said it naturally. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
"Oh dear! Why do you say everything out loud!"
Mrs. Li gently tugged her, whispering a reminder.
"What’s there to be afraid of! Mrs. Mu isn’t a stranger! But Mrs. Mu, you really let us down! You said you would join our Cheongsam Association’s Christmas event, but you left us all disappointed!"
Mrs. Wang looked at Qin Mu as if they had been old friends for many years.
Qin Mu smiled awkwardly, "I’m really sorry, those days I was in Paris with the kids for the holiday. But I heard Miss Wen was there! Actually, Miss Wen is the real star of the show!"
It was because Wen Runuan attended that the ladies didn’t hold Qin Mu accountable. Otherwise, they would have pestered her for some kind of compensation. They always hoped for more young faces in the Cheongsam Association to make it look more vibrant.
"We heard from Miss Wen that you called her, so we won’t blame you! But next time there’s such an event, you can’t let us down again!"
Mrs. Wang added.
"Absolutely, absolutely!"
Qin Mu nodded immediately, not daring to say a word of opposition.
"Mrs. Mu, are you meeting a friend?"
Mrs. Li suddenly changed the topic and asked with concern.
"Yes!"
"Then we better not disturb Mrs. Mu any longer! We have a reservation in a private room with the obstetrics and gynecology director, so we’ll head over now!"
Mrs. Li said again.
Qin Mu nodded, sending them off with a deep breath of relief once they left.
"What are you looking at?"
Helian Hao slowly walked up behind her, seeing her still looking forward, curiously checking out the backs of the two women, finding them somewhat familiar but unsure if Qin Mu had greeted them.
"Ah? You’re here!"
Startled by Helian Hao’s voice, Qin Mu quickly turned her head but soon settled her emotions.
The sisters sat down, and Helian Hao murmured, "Those two seemed like the ladies who had some check-ups at the hospital just now."
"They really are! They said they just had a gynecological check-up!"
Qin Mu nodded, already unperturbed.
Helian Hao slightly raised her chin, her mouth slightly opening.
"Let’s order!"
Seeing her dazed look, Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh and then ordered food with her.
"Hey! Why did you come here to have lunch with me today? Aren’t you busy?"
"Even if I’m busy, I’m not as busy as you! If you can make time to have lunch with me, how could I not have time to accompany you?"
Qin Mu said with a smile.
"Oh wow! What a sweet talker!"
Helian Hao stared at her, feeling like she had been sweetened up like honey from a few words of Qin Mu.
Qin Mu chuckled softly.
"By the way! I heard Xiaomei and Zhao Huai got their marriage certificate?"
Helian Hao curiously asked again.
"Yes! Yesterday!"
Qin Mu replied.
"Wow! They are really quick, too bad Jing Feng is still on a business trip. From Jiang Zhiyuan’s posts on social media, it seems like those guys got pretty drunk last night. Thinking about it, it’s kind of fortunate Jing Feng was on a business trip and didn’t get to drink himself silly!"
Helian Hao suddenly felt somewhat lucky.
Qin Mu laughed and asked her, "If Jing Feng were there, would you worry about everyone getting drunk?"
Jing Feng always had strong self-control, and drinking with him made people subconsciously restrain themselves.
"True that!"
Helian Hao laughed again, then looked up at Qin Mu and asked, "Did Mu Yichen get drunk too?"
"Don’t even mention it! I went to the hotel with him last night, stayed upstairs waiting for him while he drank, and after he came up, we chatted a bit before he fell asleep. This morning he called me without even remembering how he got upstairs last night. And I went home after helping him fall asleep since I had to take Huanhuan to school this morning! He didn’t even know I didn’t sleep with him last night!"
Qin Mu shook her head while ordering food, grumbling helplessly.
"Wow! That’s a lot of information!"
