His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 666 - 189 Protector of Wife Without Limits_1

"Can you stay with me a little longer, please?"

She turned her head, wrapped her arms around his waist, and buried her face in his chest.

Mu Yichen’s palm was still on her forehead, her forehead was slightly cold to the touch, but seeing her condition now, Mu Yichen first embraced her and coaxed her to sleep again, before he found his phone to call Helian Hao: "Could you come over? Mumu’s feeling a bit unwell, yeah! Just took her temperature, it’s a low fever."

After Mu Yichen had explained the situation to Helian Hao, he lay beside her and continued to hold her close.

In the dead of summer, she always liked to snuggle into his arms.

Mu Yichen looked down at Qin Mu’s face, felt the temperature on her leg, and his eyebrows tightened then tightened some more.

Mu Qingxin came to call them both for breakfast, thinking they must be lazing about, but when she quietly opened the door and saw the man on the bed leaning against the bedside holding the woman in his arms, gently stroking her long hair, that look...

Affection!

That was the only word that came to Mu Qingxin’s mind, as if, over there, was the most accurate depiction of affection, both in posture and in manner.

She knocked lightly on the door, not nearly as flippantly as when she first wanted to pick a fight.

Mu Yichen looked over toward the door, and Mu Qingxin stepped forward, not finding it awkward because Mu Yichen had his pajamas on, and asked with concern, "What’s wrong? Is Qin Mu not feeling well?"

"Mm!"

Mu Yichen replied softly, very softly.

"Then, about breakfast..."

"You go ahead and eat!"

Mu Yichen instructed.

Mu Qingxin looked once again towards his embrace, her eyebrows furrowed, "She does look quite pale, better get a doctor."

"I’ve already called Helian Hao, go eat!"

Mu Yichen gently told her.

"Oh!"

Mu Qingxin was somewhat reluctant, but still turned and left.

Mu Yichen sighed helplessly, thinking to himself that even at her age she was still like a child, and one mustn’t eat a cold breakfast.

Mu Qingxin ate breakfast alone, somewhat bored, and said to the aunt standing beside her with a sigh, "Tell me, why does my brother dote on Qin Mu so much? Could it really be that he owes her from their past lives? Or perhaps Qin Mu saved the entire Milky Way Galaxy in her past life?"

"Maybe that’s the case!"

The aunt replied, her hands clasped together, smiling as she conversed with her.

"Hmph! Yeah, I really envy that girl!"

"The young master and young mistress have a good relationship; it’s mutual. If the young mistress hadn’t had any affection for the young master since childhood, why would the young master have never looked at another person all these years?"

The aunt continued to talk, perhaps because of her age and having seen much, she felt these things were easy to see through.

After hearing her, Mu Qingxin couldn’t help but look up at the aunt, "It seems people with age indeed know more, I think what you said makes a lot of sense."

"Hurry up and eat! It’s not good if it gets cold."

The aunt urged her.

"Hmm! The way my brother told me to hurry down for breakfast, he probably was afraid I’d eat something cold. Thinking about it that way, my brother actually loves me a lot, too."

Mu Qingxin suddenly felt much more balanced inside, though it was still self-comforting.

The aunt couldn’t help but laugh, then turned to do something else.

Helian Hao arrived at their house a little after eight o’clock, and Mu Qingxin went upstairs with her.

"I didn’t expect you to be so tenacious!"

Helian Hao had grown up with her and didn’t need to be deliberately polite.

"Yeah! I’m just here to be the third wheel for both of them. I’m bad, aren’t I?"

Mu Qingxin said intentionally.

"If the two of them would take you seriously, then you really would be bad. But they just don’t see anyone else but each other," Helian Hao laughed, knowing Mu Qingxin had disliked Qin Mu since childhood, so she deliberately contraried her.

"How can they not have me in their eyes?"

Mu Qingxin confidently asked her.

Helian Hao didn’t continue the banter, only looked at her while knocking on the door.

The two women looked at each other, both understanding what the other meant.

"I’ve brought her medicine, no need for an injection!"

Helian Hao said while taking the medicine out of her bag, her heart aching a bit at the sight of Qin Mu’s pale face.

"But she looks rather serious! In the middle of summer, wrapped up so tightly!"

Mu Yichen had just stood up for a moment, listening to his sister and Helian Hao chatting without joining in but he looked worriedly at the woman in bed who had wrapped herself up tightly.

Qin Mu forced a smile, "It must have been from last night’s trip to the square! Should have just gone straight home."

After Qin Mu finished speaking, Mu Yichen’s eyes dropped.

"You two didn’t go straight home after leaving our house?"

Helian Hao curiously asked her.

"There’s a fountain square nearby, we walked a couple of laps there."

Qin Mu said, a faint sweat still on her forehead.
