His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 1702 - 477: The Beginning and the End (23)
"Mu Yichen, do you dote on me or not?"
Qin Mu lay on top of him again, acting spoiled!
"Hmm! But I still want to hear you say it!"
Mu Yichen agreed, but still insisted.
"But, what if I say I want to hold on to this?"
Qin Mu bit her lower lip and, after asking, nervously looked at him.
"Why?"
Mu Yichen silently stared at her for a while, noticing the slight gloom in her eyes, insisting on a reason.
"Reason? You always speak harshly to me, and this time you even said you wanted to let go. Does that count?"
Qin Mu’s eyes flickered. She pondered, realizing that recently his words about letting go had wounded her deeply, leaving her heart bruised and not yet healed. So she felt this was a valid reason.
Hearing her reason, Mu Yichen felt frustrated, but at that moment he couldn’t find anything else to ask her.
That time, he truly lost control and said those things to her.
He was even a little afraid to meet her eyes, so he held her close in his arms, silently digesting what had just happened.
Qin Mu, naturally, didn’t dare to say another word. If this matter could pass, then let it pass.
Though, right now, she truly just wanted to hold back a little.
Mu Yichen set her down from on top of him, but still held her close, resting his forehead against hers, feeling her soft breath. He couldn’t help but gently kiss her forehead. When he kept losing his temper, she didn’t fight back, and suddenly he felt a pang of heartache for her.
"Mu Yichen, I never want to hear those words again!"
"In this lifetime, I don’t want to hear them ever again!"
She lay on his chest, quietly listening to his heartbeat. Her voice was unusually calm and steady as she spoke. She wanted to speak more stubbornly but couldn’t. Ultimately, only words spoken out loud remained.
Mu Yichen hugged her even tighter: "I know!"
Qin Mu felt a warmth spreading in her heart after hearing his acknowledgment. Her eyes felt uncomfortable, and only by snuggling tightly against him did she feel slightly better.
Some things, the more couples say to each other, the more it hurts the heart. Initially, it’s a bloody pain, and later...
She couldn’t remember who had told her, but the most taboo thing between couples is suspicion of each other! The most taboo is speaking harsh words, talking about separation!
She couldn’t recall who said it, but some words were etched in her bones.
For some reason, she thought of her own mother. But was it that woman who told her? She was so young back then, and that woman’s appearance was so foolish...
Qin Mu involuntarily took a deep breath, holding the person beside her even tighter.
——
The next morning!
Mu Family living room.
"What? You two are going to Paris to accompany that woman having a baby? I disagree!"
As usual, the first to lose her temper was Feng Fanghua.
"Mom, it’s just a few days, we’ll be back soon!"
Qin Mu explained after Mu Yichen informed the elders that they were going to Paris.
"Back soon? No, you’re both free to go. Running off to accompany that woman in childbirth!"
Feng Fanghua, even more displeased, questioned them. She was particularly annoyed by Qin Mu’s calm explanation.
"Others won’t know we’re there for Xiao Wei’s delivery; we can tell friends we’re going to Paris for a vacation and just happened to be there."
Qin Mu had already thought of an excuse and felt it was quite fitting.
Though, this originally required no excuse. She was going to accompany her master’s woman in childbirth.
"No, no, this matter..."
Feng Fanghua glanced at her son, some words she couldn’t immediately say.
"Oh, let them go! It’s not such a big deal. It’s rare for the two of them to have a break to go out and have fun, isn’t it?"
Mu Zihao, sitting beside, gently explained to Feng Fanghua, siding with his son and daughter-in-law.
"Sounds nice, but are they going on vacation? If they were, I’d be okay. But Mu Zihao’s son going to assist another woman in childbirth, if word gets out... They can go if Qin Mu goes alone!"
Feng Fanghua thought it over and understood that this was certainly Qin Mu’s idea. This was Qin Mu’s master’s woman. Qin Mu going was understandable, but how could someone like Mu Yichen do such a thing? So Feng Fanghua compromised, leaving her son behind.
Qin Mu didn’t say anything after hearing this, merely instinctively looking at Mu Yichen.
She could go alone, but if she went alone, wouldn’t Mu Yichen be constantly worried in Rongcheng?
