He heartlessly repeated his request, Qin Mu angrily stared at him and couldn’t help but retort, "It’s just a choice, either leave Huanhuan or get a divorce. What’s your choice?"
Mu Yichen suddenly laughed, hands on hips as he looked down at his own feet. The light was too dim for him to see what was on the floor. Then, he raised his gaze to her and went forward to forcibly take Huanhuan from her arms.
He whispered to Huanhuan after giving her a kiss on the cheek.
As soon as Huanhuan’s feet touched the ground, she ran to find Feng Fanghua. Qin Mu watched in shock. Had the little girl just abandoned her?
Just as she was about to cry from feeling wronged, Mu Yichen suddenly picked her up.
"Hey, Mu Yichen, what are you doing? Put me down."
Feng Fangfei and Mu Zihao stood by with Huanhuan, watching their precious son carry a woman inside.
He threatened as he walked, "Kick again and I’ll spank you."
The butler stood at the door, bowing his head when he saw them coming.
The bedroom door was slammed shut fiercely.
"Why aren’t you being coy now? Weren’t you about to go your separate ways?"
He pressed her for an answer.
Qin Mu was angry too; it was always .
That night, she didn’t run away but went to her daughter’s room instead.
While Mu Yichen himself lay on the bed and slept comfortably, feeling as if it had been lifetimes since he had the big bed all to himself. So soft that one just wanted to sleep upon lying down.
When she woke up in the early morning to the sound of rain outside, Qin Mu opened the curtains to look at the green grass and then went back to lie next to her daughter.
As soon as Huanhuan opened her eyes and saw her, she happily pressed down on her. One small hand clutched her while the other touched her angular face, "Mommy, good morning."
"Sweetheart, good morning."
Qin Mu kissed her daughter’s forehead.
Mu Yi got jealous as soon as he entered the room; the mother and daughter were too close.
Despite his jealousy, he had no choice but to lift his daughter up into his arms and then casually sit on the edge of the bed.
Qin Mu flinched instinctively to protect herself from his movements, and he ended up lying exactly where she had been just before.
Mu Yi’s actions were so seamless, so dashing...
Huanhuan giggled, "Daddy, you’re so naughty!"
"Didn’t we agree to call me ’Dad’ from now on?"
"Dad, Dad, haha, Daddy!"
Huanhuan switched around, not sure what to call him anymore, then turned to him with a silly smile and looked back at her beloved Mommy, "Mommy!"
This time, the name was quite clear.
Actually, what she called him wasn’t essential, but Qin Mu realized that Mu Yi’s affection for Huanhuan had changed ever since he knew she was his biological daughter.
Before, he treated Huanhuan well out of obligation. Now, it was genuine affection.
Qin Mu wondered whether he had secretly regretted not being better to Huanhuan in the past.
Mu Yi felt her gaze on his face and couldn’t stand it, so he immediately turned to look at her.
Qin Mu flipped over immediately, facing the wall to contemplate.
Mu Yi’s lips curled into a light smile: "Dad will pick out clothes for you, okay?"
After placing Huanhuan on the bed and roughing up her soft hair, he went to find clothes for her. Qin Mu couldn’t help but turn back around and noticed he wasn’t too bad at these tasks.
He quickly changed Huanhuan’s clothes.
However, he wasn’t quite adept at combing hair, and though the auntie offered to help, Mu Yi sent her away. Qin Mu stood by a chair, braiding the little girl’s hair that sat inside.
She had learned a new hairstyle on the internet recently when she had some free time, perfect for experimenting.
Mu Yi leaned against the cupboard, his tall figure enviable.
Huanhuan held a little mirror, happy and constantly admiring the hairstyle her mother had done.
Qin Mu asked after finishing.
"Love it, thank you, Mommy!"
Huanhuan gently touched her hair with one hand and turned back to speak to her mommy.
Mission accomplished, her daughter was satisfied, and she proudly turned to look at Mu Yi. He gave her a calm glance.
Not long after, Feng Fangfei came to take Huanhuan away. He pulled her hand, and they returned to the bedroom.
"What are you doing? I have to go!"
He said nothing but just pulled her in front of a chest of drawers, then opened one and took out a ring.
Qin Mu instinctively pulled her hand back, "What are you doing?"
Qin Mu immediately backed away several steps, with both hands in her pants pockets, cautious of him.
"Don’t make me repeat myself a third time. Put it back on; this is the last chance I’m giving you."
"I don’t need your chance, goodbye!"
