His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 920: Actually, the type I like is someone like you, too.
Chapter 920: Actually, the type I like is someone like you, too.
"I chose this path because of him. This path is so hard, so bitter, yet I’m not afraid. What I fear is that he doesn’t love me."
Li Man leaned sadly against Qin Mu’s shoulder, her hands covering her tear-streaked face, and her hoarse voice finally slipped out through her fingers.
Qin Mu didn’t know what to say.
Hadn’t she once been afraid, too? Afraid enough to not dare pursue what she wanted?
Li Man was far more courageous than her, but Li Yu didn’t have the resolute heart of Mu Yichen.
Qin Mu didn’t know why this was the case. She could only gently smooth the woman’s trembling back and silently accompany her in this moment.
Later, when Li Man finally cried herself out and left, Qin Mu waited at the hotel entrance for Mu Qingxin to come out. As it turned out, Mu Qingxin was drunk.
Hearing her laughter, Qin Mu turned her head and saw her being supported by a female classmate and a male classmate. She looked as though she didn’t even recognize herself anymore.
Qin Mu simply stood quietly at the entrance, watching until they brought her over.
"Sister Mu, I’m sorry, this girl gets completely out of control when she starts drinking."
The young man was the same one Qin Mu had arranged to intimidate Qin Mingzhu last time. Seeing Qin Mu now, he greeted her obediently as Sister Mu.
Qin Mu gave him a quick glance in acknowledgment before lowering her gaze to look at Mu Qingxin.
At this moment, Mu Qingxin’s hair was disheveled, her eyes red and swollen, as if she’d just had a fierce argument with someone. When she lifted her eyes and saw Qin Mu, she gave a silly smile and even tried to reach out to pinch Qin Mu’s cheek. Qin Mu instinctively leaned back slightly, and her classmates quickly restrained her.
"It seems like she had a fight with her husband!"
One of the female classmates, though nervous upon seeing Qin Mu, couldn’t resist speaking up.
Looking at Mu Qingxin in this state, Qin Mu also felt something was wrong. But with one person after another, sigh!
Suddenly, memories of her frequent arguments with Mu Yichen surfaced. What right did she have to criticize others for their flaws?
Their car arrived two minutes later, and the group helped Mu Qingxin into the vehicle.
On the way back, Mu Qingxin kept muttering, even more incessantly than Li Man had earlier in the private room.
"Jiang Yan is such a bastard. All he ever does is focus on his career, focus on his career. And what about me? Why bother getting married to me?"
She cried, growing more and more devastated.
Qin Mu drove the car home, nearly hauling Mu Qingxin out of the vehicle — it took every ounce of her strength.
Once at home, Feng Fanghua saw the situation and quickly rushed to take over, but the sight of her daughter, drunk beyond recognition, broke her heart. "What’s going on here?"
"It looks like she had a fight with Jiang Yan!"
Qin Mu spoke softly, nearly drained of energy.
The housekeeper came over to help Qin Mu get Mu Qingxin into the bedroom.
"Take Ziyu to Chengcheng’s room first."
Qin Mu mentioned as she noticed the pale, sleeping little one on the bed.
The housekeeper quickly carried the child away; scaring the kids would be worse than anything.
"This girl... fighting with her husband and doesn’t say a word to us? I wondered why she came home so late the other night, turns out..."
Feng Fanghua sighed deeply in frustration, unable to finish her thoughts. She pulled the blanket over her daughter.
Qin Mu leaned forward to tug the blanket up fully before hearing the housekeeper greet Mu Yichen outside. Mu Yichen had already showered and was waiting for Qin Mu, but was surprised to see this scene.
Turning her head, Qin Mu saw the man standing sideways at the doorway. Mu Yichen glanced at Qin Mu before looking at the fool on the bed, whose hair was wet from crying.
"What’s wrong with her?"
Mu Yichen asked in his deep voice.
"Mom, I’ll head back to my room now."
Qin Mu said to Feng Fanghua.
"Go ahead!"
Feng Fanghua agreed and followed her out, softly closing the door behind Mu Qingxin.
Qin Mu lightly grasped Mu Yichen’s arm and walked back to their room with him, speaking softly once there: "Seems like she had a fight with Jiang Yan. Probably because Jiang Yan is constantly traveling for work?"
Qin Mu sounded unsure, glancing up at Mu Yichen.
Mu Yichen exhaled in exasperation. "So little self-control."
He seemed disappointed in Mu Qingxin, but as an older brother, his heart naturally ached for his sister.
"But Jiang Yan really is very busy."
Qin Mu said softly.
"The older members of the Jiang Family are constantly watching him like hawks. Do you think he can just secure his position and do nothing afterward? That he can live blissfully with his family and ignore everything else?"
Mu Yichen reminded Qin Mu, his tone filled with resignation.
Qin Mu...
"Since Mu Qingxin chose that man, she should be supporting him. If she becomes a burden to Jiang Yan, then she isn’t worthy of his love."
Mu Yichen stated.
Hearing such a harsh evaluation from Mu Yichen was rare, making Qin Mu find it unexpectedly striking.
