How much Mu Yichen adored Qin Mu was clear to Helian Hao.
"Fortunately, the truth has come to light, and as for the relationship between Mu Yichen and the Jing Family, we two women can’t really do much about it, let’s just wait and see,"
Helian Hao accepted the reality, helplessly shrugging her shoulders.
Qin Mu agreed, although she would never just stand by and do nothing if Mu Yichen was in trouble.
Of course, she was even more aware that it had always been Mu Yichen protecting her.
But for some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling. She was usually someone who took things one step at a time, but this time, she suddenly became worried.
She felt a bit relieved when she saw the bodyguards patrolling outside. With his power and influence nowadays, he wasn’t someone who could be easily targeted, she convinced herself not to be so nervous and looked outside and suddenly laughed, "Xiaohao, do you think he will always be so good to me?"
"Forever? I don’t know about forever, but I do know that after you went abroad, he immediately arranged to go abroad himself. He was so persistent that he followed you to Paris, where he stayed for over ten years. Even though he returned to the country, he never let go of you,"
Qin Mu looked up at Helian Hao, her heart warmed by those words and memories, quietly heating up.
As the workday was about to end, Liu Jingyuan came to their studio, ignoring the mess from the ongoing renovation, wearing the suit she had designed for him and holding a big bouquet of roses in his hand.
"I don’t know if you’ll like them?"
He asked her softly as he offered the flowers.
A bit embarrassed, Qin Mu accepted them: "Thank you!"
"As long as you like them. You can’t turn down dinner with me again today, can you?"
Xiaomei walked out from the side and took the flowers from Qin Mu, also slyly winking at her. Qin Mu had an idea and sighed with her eyes downcast, "Look at the state of this place..."
"That’s exactly why I want to take you out, to help you relax,"
"Sorry, President Liu, but I’m afraid it’s still not possible today!"
"Oh? May I ask you a question?" Liu Jingyuan respected her, and even the way he looked at her was very earnest.
"Are you truly planning to become the daughter-in-law of the Mu Family?"
Qin Mu looked up at him, and although she didn’t expect him to ask such a question, she felt it necessary to answer.
"I am indeed with President Mu at the moment!"
Even though it was an answer that the whole world already knew, someone as smart as Liu Jingyuan would surely understand her meaning.
"Then we can make another appointment in the future!" Liu Jingyuan left with a smile.
Xiaomei came out of the office and stood beside Qin Mu, looking down at the man descending the stairs: "President Liu really seems to be smitten with you."
Qin Mu turned and went back inside; she didn’t think having a man smitten with her was something to be happy about.
Seeing the flowers Xiaomei had put in a vase, she sighed helplessly, "Don’t put these flowers in my office."
Xiaomei thought the flowers were innocent and they were so fresh.
"Mu Yi would be unhappy to see them."
She didn’t even invite Liu Jingyuan to sit in her office, which was enough to show how clear her intentions were.
But as soon as she said this, Mu Yi had already arrived at her office, and seeing Xiaomei carrying the vase out, he couldn’t help but ask curiously, "Are those from Liu Jingyuan?"
Xiaomei stood in front of him dumbfounded, then turned her head woodenly to look for guidance from Qin Mu.
Qin Mu had just sat down; upon his arrival, she immediately stood up to greet him, "You should go about your business."
As she spoke to Xiaomei, she had already moved forward to take his hand. Xiaomei nodded her head and quickly retreated.
Mu Yi looked down at Qin Mu with eyes that seemed a bit cold and distant, "Does he often come looking for you?"
"I didn’t expect you to walk in on us."
Qin Mu suppressed a laugh as she spoke to him, then pulled him to sit on the couch.
Mu Yi looked at her displeased, "Are you trying to kill me with all this attention from others?"
"How could I? I’m so well-behaved!"
Qin Mu sat directly on his lap, her arms wrapped around his neck, demonstrating her loyalty.
"Well-behaved? You’ve been naughty ever since you were a child, always playing tricks on me," Mu Yi complained.
Because he had just helped her out, Qin Mu didn’t want to argue with him and just wanted to be happy. Seeing him looking all puffed up, she even felt a bit sorry for him, but just as she was about to soothe him, she was interrupted by Xiaomei.
"Qinqin, the lawyer you hired is here!"
Xiaomei reminded from the doorway.
"Ok, I’ll be right there!"
"You hired a lawyer for what?"
"You stay here and make yourself comfortable for now, I’ll explain everything to you later!"
After giving him a fierce kiss on the face, she then got up to greet the lawyer.
She had left so quickly that his heart felt like it had been hit by a gust of warm wind.
