His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 682 - 192 Very Love_4
Chapter 682: 192 Very Love_4
"At your age, and being so endearing, to say something presumptuous, it’s like you’re my own little daughter."
Auntie was nearing sixty, but she still had long black hair.
Of course, it was dyed.
"Ah? You have a younger daughter too? How old is she?"
"Twenty-six!"
Auntie said with a laugh, remembering that this year the girl had started her PhD, and although she was actually very proud, she wasn’t the sort of elder to parade her pride.
"Wow! Then how many children do you have?"
Qin Mu was quite surprised.
"Five, and she’s the youngest. Not long after she was born, her father had a car accident and broke his leg. Since then, I have been working for the Mu Family. The Madame may be fierce, but after finding out about my family’s situation, she gave me a higher salary than others. During holidays, she also secretly sent me various gifts, so I really have a lot of affection for the Mu Family."
It was the first time Qin Mu had learned of this, but she did believe that Feng Fanghua was the type with a sharp tongue but a soft heart, capable of doing good deeds.
You could tell by looking at Feng Fanghua’s charitable work; there weren’t many aristocratic ladies who were truly dedicated to charity.
"I now feel that having many children at home is quite nice. Watching Mu Yichen and Mu Qingxin together, they bicker all day long, but if anything happens to one of them, the other gets anxious and defensive."
Qin Mu said, hugging Auntie’s shoulder, with her eyes full of memories about the sibling duo.
"That’s true, my kids are the same, always fighting when together. But once, when the little girl got her heart broken, her four brothers went to the boy’s apartment and beat him until his nose swelled and his face bruised. They even made the boy apologize to the little girl," said Auntie as she thought of her youngest daughter, who she had spent the least time with, but who was indeed her dearest.
"What a pity my mother passed away so early!"
Qin Mu suddenly felt a sense of sorrow.
If that incident hadn’t occurred, it seemed like her parents were considering having a second child, but her father’s status did not permit a second child; they were planning on having one secretly.
But suddenly, a woman named Zhang Rujia appeared.
And then their family fell apart.
Thinking of Zhang Rujia, Qin Mu realized it had been a long time since she had heard from her. Had that woman disappeared from Rongcheng?
"Life, it’s all fate! But though you don’t have siblings, having the young master devotedly protecting and doting on you is something others might never obtain their whole lives," Auntie mentioned again.
"Yes! You’re right!"
"Just like me, I wanted to find a simple man to live life with, him providing for the family, me raising the kids. But who could have expected that the second half of his life would be spent in a wheelchair? He felt useless inside, and sometimes I also — "
Auntie’s eyes suddenly blurred, and she choked up, unable to speak. She lowered her head, finally only shaking her head: "You should get some rest! I’ll go to the kitchen to prepare lunch."
Qin Mu let go of her, watching her head determinedly toward the kitchen, Qin Mu felt sympathetic.
Every person’s fate was mixed with bad times, more or less.
Hers...
Though she lost her mother at a young age, it was just that, nothing more than the absence of a mother.

"Let’s go to President Mu’s office building!"
On the road, Le Yuanyuan suddenly said to the man driving beside her.
"Hmm? Why do you want to go to the office building again? Everyone in our circle knows that Mu Yichen is notoriously difficult to deal with."
The club president was delivering a lesson to his staff.
"But he likes to show off his relationship! The last time Mu Qingxin allowed me to expose their marriage certificate, she told me it was under President Mu’s orders. If we don’t go and try our luck, how will we know if it will work?"
Le Yuanyuan said earnestly to the man driving.
"True!"
The president directed the car towards Mu Yichen’s office building.
"Qin Mu must be a very proud woman, even though she seems low-key. I suddenly think, perhaps Mu Yichen is the one who’s easier to talk to. Do you get that feeling?"
Le Yuanyuan turned to the man while driving, her excitement evident in her grasp on his arm.
"The beauty is always right! I trust your intuition."
The president gave her a serious look, his eyes shining.
"Stop it! Aren’t I doing all this for our newspaper? For you?"
"I know! Yuanyuan, I’m grateful!"
The president reached out and caressed her cheek, then continued to drive attentively.
"To be on the safe side, I’ll give Mu Qingxin another call. If she helps us out, this interview is as good as ours. Then, in Rongcheng, our newspaper will become famous effortlessly."
Le Yuanyuan looked at the man, bit her lip, then suddenly bowed her head and rummaged through her bag for her phone. She had to work hard for her future.
"Will Mu Yichen listen to his sister?"
"What if he does?"
"If this thing works out — let’s get married at the end of the year!"
Le Yuanyuan looked at him, her face flushed with excitement. It was undoubtedly the biggest temptation for her. The man smiled at her, and the car finally arrived at the office building’s parking lot.
