His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 923 - 263 Contagion_2
Chapter 923: 263 Contagion_2
Mu Qingxin lay on the bed and woke completely after seeing that message. Did she cry terribly last night?
Mu Qingxin: "I don’t believe it!"
Qin Mu didn’t say anything else, simply sent her a short video.
Qin Mu thought it was necessary for Jiang Yan to know how wronged and upset his wife had been at her family home, so he sent Jiang Yan a video. At the time, Mu Qingxin was in the seat, twisting and freaking out.
Mu Qingxin opened the video, and immediately felt her heart forget to beat as she stared tensely at the footage. The woman in the video, shaking back and forth like a lunatic in the car—was that really her?
Mu Qingxin: "Why would you record such a video? Are you planning to post it online to humiliate me? You’re dead, Qin Mu!"
"Drawing—don’t interrupt me!"
Qin Mu tossed out that line after watching, then put down his phone and turned his attention back to the computer screen.
Suddenly, it seemed like he had a spark of inspiration.
Meanwhile, Mu Qingxin rolled around on the bed, feeling as though her lifetime of glory was ruined by Qin Mu’s video. She lay there glaring with wide eyes, thinking hard for a long time before sending Qin Mu another message: "Post it and you’re seriously dead meat!"
"Deleted!"
Qin Mu replied.
Mu Qingxin: "When you get home, I’m going to check!"
Qin Mu didn’t respond, as Xiaomei called her down for a meeting, and she didn’t bring her phone along.
After the morning meeting, the group went to the nearby restaurant for lunch. The owner happily presented them with two massive fruit platters, as a thank-you for their frequent patronage.
Honestly, their studio practically monopolized the place. It wasn’t beyond reason to say they ran the kitchen.
After thanking the owner, the owner expressed her gratitude in return.
Then the group happily enjoyed their meal.
In the afternoon, Qin Mu received a call from Qin Mingzhu, who yelled over the phone: "Qin Mu, what did you do to my mom this time?"
Qin Mu...
She had simply picked up the unknown number, not realizing it was from Qin Mingzhu.
"What could I do to your mom? I haven’t seen her in ages."
Qin Mu said.
"Really? But she’s been looking so haggard lately, not even wearing makeup."
Qin Mingzhu sounded even more tense after hearing that.
Qin Mu, however, didn’t know what to say. After all, it had been a long time since she last saw Zhang Rujia.
"I’ve been video-calling her these days, and she always looks worn out. How about... Could you visit her on my behalf?"
Qin Mingzhu suddenly asked with a hoarse voice.
Upon hearing this, Qin Mu could only let out a resigned sigh: "Do you think I’m your nanny?"
"But in Rongcheng, I can’t think of anyone else besides you. Dad absolutely refuses to help."
"If even he won’t help, what do you expect from me? If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up."
After speaking, Qin Mu hung up the phone and suddenly felt irritable.
Qin Mingzhu...
Three days later, Qin Mu saw Zhang Rujia again when she was at the supermarket with Helian Hao. Zhang Rujia was selecting vegetables alone.
Qin Mu and Helian Hao stood to the side, watching the woman carefully pick through the produce. She was dressed in older clothes but looked fairly tidy. However, there was no makeup on her face.
"What’s going on with her?"
Helian Hao asked in a puzzled tone, as she had never seen Zhang Rujia without makeup before.
"The other day, Qin Mingzhu called me saying she’s been acting strange lately."
Qin Mu replied instinctively.
Helian Hao furrowed her brows, surprised that Qin Mingzhu had called Qin Mu to say such things, and then curiously stared at Zhang Rujia’s face.
"Could it be she’s gotten some awful illness again?"
Helian Hao muttered, causing Qin Mu to raise her eyes and look at her.
While the two were speculating, Zhang Rujia suddenly seemed to sense their gaze and turned her head. She spotted them but quickly lowered her head again, as if she hadn’t seen them, and left with her shopping cart after buying her produce.
Qin Mu and Helian Hao stood in the vegetable section, finally shifting their gaze away from her: "Still trying to play the pity card?"
Helian Hao asked in a low voice, especially considering Zhang Rujia’s history of being so good at acting, it was inevitable for everyone to think this way now.
"To win her boss’s sympathy?"
Qin Mu asked.
"Could be!"
Helian Hao chuckled softly, and the two murmured as they picked vegetables. Helian Hao’s selections of course, since the Mu Family didn’t need Qin Mu for such tasks.
"By the way, do you and Jing Feng live in the apartment now?"
As Qin Mu helped Helian Hao pick vegetables, she asked.
"Only on weekends, to enjoy some couple time."
