His Beloved Treasure

"How can my wife, Qin Mu, be so haggard?"

Mu Yichen held her anxiously, afraid she might collapse at any moment.

"Can you really notice every little change in me so quickly?"

Qin Mu’s voice suddenly became very weak; she managed a faint smile in his arms, her head felt heavy as she looked up at him, her vision blurred.

"Yes!"

He confidently answered with just the one word.

Qin Mu stubbornly looked at him like that, and even though she couldn’t see clearly, his face was already imprinted in her mind.

Later she lay on the bed to rest, while Mu Yichen went downstairs, and Qin Mingzhu suddenly stood up properly.

"Brother-in-law, is my sister okay?"

Qin Mingzhu asked in a low voice, looking a bit nervously at Mu Yichen.

"Yes!"

Mu Yichen replied and then sat down on the sofa.

"Let me take this call!"

Qin Mingzhu glanced at Mu Yichen, and just as she was about to sit down, her phone rang. She slowly picked it up from the sofa and saw it was her husband, then whispered to Mu Yichen, "It’s Wang Huanyu."

Mu Yichen raised his eyes slightly, as if to say, what does that have to do with me?

Qin Mingzhu answered the phone, "Hello! Huanyu, I’m at my sister’s house, she’s sick, and I’ve come to see her! You want to come over too? Okay then! Don’t forget to bring a gift!"

Qin Mingzhu grew even more nervous, but facing Mu Yichen together with someone else was better than facing him alone.

"Is your husband coming here?"

Feng Fanghua heard her phone call and stood up. Wang Huanyu now worked in the city center, and Feng Fanghua understood that the two families would have to get along well in the future.

"Yes! He said he’ll come to pick me up!"

Qin Mingzhu nodded.

"Then stay and have dinner before you leave, I’ll go tell the kitchen to prepare!"

Feng Fanghua said as she went to the kitchen with her phone in hand. She needed to prepare well for the evening’s dinner.

Feng Fanghua, while instructing the kitchen to take out the good ingredients, called Mu Zihao, "Are you still at the pharmaceutical factory? Come back for dinner tonight; Mingzhu’s husband is coming! Should we ask Dad to come back too? He’s out climbing mountains with his old buddies!"

In the end, they didn’t ask the old man to come back, mainly because he didn’t care. Even if Wang Huanyu were to become the future mayor, the old man remained who he was, and anyone who saw him had to treat him with respect.

Mu Zihao, however, did return. The dinner that night was quite lavish, and as Mu Zihao sat down and looked at the dishes on the table, he almost thought he had attended some high-end banquet.

"Isn’t this a bit much?"

So he leaned a little closer to Feng Fanghua and spoke in a voice only she could hear.

"Mr. Wang just arrived in Rongcheng, we should show our hospitality, and besides, Mr. Wang is Mingzhu’s husband, and Mingzhu is our Mumu’s sister, it’s not too much. Mr. Wang, please enjoy, no need to be formal!"

Wang Huanyu instinctively glanced at Mu Yichen. He was a bit younger than Mu Yichen, and Mu Yichen was somewhat cold and intimidating, but Mu Yichen just gave a helpless smile.

"My mom is welcoming the future mayor, so don’t be too polite!"

Mu Yichen knew Wang Huanyu was a bit tense, so he said.

"Then I won’t be polite, but you can just call me Huanyu. As you said, we’re family, and with family, there’s no need for formalities. In Rongcheng, Mingzhu and I will rely on you to look after us."

Wang Huanyu said, then raised his glass, "I’ll toast to uncle and aunt first!"

Qin Mingzhu later felt that Wang Huanyu was truly adept at socializing, much more so than she was, and developed an admiration for him.

Qin Mu, sitting across from Qin Mingzhu, watched the way Qin Mingzhu looked at Wang Huanyu and thought back to when they first started dating. Qin Mingzhu had been extremely reluctant, and if she hadn’t gotten pregnant, she probably wouldn’t have married Wang Huanyu, but look at them now.

A good marriage gets better and better!

"Alright!"

Mu Zihao raised his glass, and Feng Fanghua followed suit.

"In the future, consider this place as your own home. With your elders not around, if you need anything, just let me know!"

Feng Fanghua said heartily after putting down her glass.

"If there’s anything I don’t understand, I’ll definitely come to ask you, Aunt!"

Qin Mingzhu said.

Feng Fanghua felt a slight chill in her heart, instinctively recalling how Qin Mingzhu had clung to her and cried all afternoon today.

"It’s fine to come to me, but please, never like today afternoon, you really tugged at Aunt’s heartstrings."

Feng Fanghua reminded her jokingly.

"Hehe! I won’t do it again!"

Qin Mingzhu was mainly afraid that Mu Yichen might get upset.

Everyone seems to have someone who can restrain them.
