Qin Mu had thought about leaving him ten thousand times.

So, this wasn’t the first time, nor would it be the last.

However, even if they were like an old couple holding hands, having lost their feeling, Mu Yichen knew they wouldn’t divorce, nor would there be anyone else.

Their hearts had grown together, separating would mean death.

Yet, whether she thought of him or had someone else by her side, Mu Yichen was waiting for her, waiting for her to turn back, to let go, to embrace him again willingly.

But at that moment, what he wanted to hear was not an apology, but that she loved him.

At noon, the three originally planned to take Yang Qin to the staff cafeteria for lunch, but Yang Qin suddenly received a call from the hospital, and her face turned pale.

"Sorry, I can’t go with you guys, something happened to my grandmother!"

Yang Qin was almost crying, looking completely different from the usually serious woman.

"Old Qiao, give your car keys to Yang Qin!"

Mu Yichen said after hearing this.

Qiao Yi immediately searched his pockets, but the car keys were downstairs, and Zhao Huai’s keys were also left in Qiao Yi’s office.

Mu Yichen handed his keys to her: "Call if you need help!"

"Thank you, boss!"

Yang Qin was immensely grateful, took his car keys, grabbed her bag, and turned to run.

"Is her grandmother not going to make it?"

Qiao Yi asked with a hint of doubt.

"Don’t talk nonsense!"

Zhao Huai warned softly.

Qiao Yi didn’t dare to say more since Yang Qin was such a serious girl, not someone to joke about, especially in such matters.

Everyone has elders at home, and they all hope their elders can be well, healthy and safe.

Mu Yichen walked ahead, saying nothing, as he didn’t like commenting on others’ matters, he just knew Yang Qin’s grandmother was hospitalized.

There wasn’t much he could do to help.

——

After Yang Qin drove to the hospital, she immediately parked the car and then dashed towards the hospital entrance.

Helian Hao was just about to go out for lunch and arrived at the parking lot, only to see Yang Qin getting out of Mu Yichen’s car and rushing into the hospital. She couldn’t help but frown with curiosity, then looked carefully at that car.

Once she confirmed that it was indeed Mu Yichen’s car, she immediately called Qin Mu. She needed to ask Qin Mu how a strange woman came to drive Mu Yichen’s car.

But Qin Mu didn’t answer, Helian Hao thought it might be morning on her side, and she could be busy getting up or something, so she put the phone back in her bag for now. Yet, she couldn’t help but keep looking at Mu Yichen’s car for a while, knowing that someone like Jing Feng, Qiao Yi, Zhao Huai, or Jiang Zhiyuan driving Mu Yichen’s car wasn’t unusual, but a strange woman, who could she be?

By the time Qin Mu saw Helian Hao’s call, it was already after nine in the morning. She called Helian Hao back, who had already finished lunch and was on the way back to the hospital.

"I saw your husband’s car at our hospital parking lot today, but it was driven by a woman, so I called to ask if you knew what was going on!"

Helian Hao replied while driving.

"I’m just about to go to work, how would I know what’s going on? Could it be you saw wrong?"

Qin Mu asked her softly, stepping out of the house, locking the door behind her, and then heading to start her car.

"How could I see wrong? I even specifically checked the license plate number, your birthday!"

Helian Hao immediately retorted.

Qin Mu just listened, feeling a heaviness in her heart, but she couldn’t possibly call Mu Yichen to ask why he lent his car to a woman.

"Come back soon, I have no objection to you covering for your master, but if you want to let your marriage drift away, as your sister, I must raise both hands in opposition."

"I’m going to London in a few days, I can’t afford to cancel work now unless I want JY to go under."

Qin Mu replied to her, returning to the city?

Not knowing why, even though it no longer felt familiar here, she didn’t want to go back to Rongcheng anymore.

Going back there seemed to be full of sadness. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Your father’s matter has just come to light, staying outside for a few days is fine, but you really should come back in a few days."

Helian Hao was still worried, knowing Qin Mu’s temperament all too well, wanting to give up, maintaining a simple marital relationship, such terrifying thoughts, Qin Mu truly might have them.

"Mm, I know, I’ll come back after this busy period!"

Qin Mu promised, then hung up the phone.

However, that Mu Yichen would lend his car to a woman, surely...
