His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 698 - 196 Pampering (4) What’s there to accompany her?_2

Suddenly, she realized that this pregnancy didn’t seem as strong as the first one.

Was it because she had family around, so she became more sentimental?

In the afternoon, Mu Zihao and Feng Fanghua took Huanhuan out, and she stayed in the living room to play chess with Grandpa, who said he was holding her to ensure she had no chance of turning the game around.

"How about I introduce you to a friend?"

The old master asked her after taking one of her pieces.

"What kind of friend? A boyfriend or a girlfriend?"

"Aren’t you afraid Yichen will fall into a vat of jealousy? And you still dare mention a boyfriend?"

The old master seemed to be joking, but he was also speaking sincerely.

"Even if he gets jealous, he knows in his heart that there won’t be anyone else for me."

When it came to this matter, Qin Mu was actually quite confident.

"Hmph! You sure have confidence in that boy."

"In a few days, a comrade’s granddaughter is coming back from overseas for some work. They’ve sold their house here, so I’ve asked her to stay with us for a few days."

The old master instructed.

"Oh! Okay!"

Qin Mu nodded after hearing this, but then she turned to look at the old master: "Grandpa! Are you introducing a friend to me? You’re not trying to make a move on Mu Yichen again, are you?"

Qin Mu originally wanted to hold back from asking, but what if a beauty capable of overthrowing states came along and swooned her husband?

"Of course not! She’s already got a fiancé!"

Grandpa said.

"Oh!"

Qin Mu sighed with relief.

Two days later, the comrade’s granddaughter arrived at their home.

It was a Saturday afternoon; it was slushy snow outside. The girl entered wearing a caramel-colored coat.

Mu Yichen personally went to pick her up, and the two of them were chatting as they walked into the house.

At that moment, Qin Mu began to feel uneasy.

After the girl greeted everyone and gave out gifts, she then said, "Actually, I was planning to stay at a hotel, but I heard Grandpa insisted! I promise I won’t be a disturbance for too long."

"What are you talking about? We’re family. What’s all this talk about being a disturbance?"

Old master said cheerfully, also complimenting the girl for looking like grandfather.

"If she looked like Grandpa, wouldn’t she be rather plain?"

Mu Yichen, sitting next to Qin Mu with his legs crossed, arm resting behind her, chimed in.

"Yes, Grandpa! Everyone says I actually look more like my mother!"

The girl followed up on Mu Yichen’s comment.

"Oh, am I mistaken?"

The old master was still very happy, as his old comrade had sent a memento from their days working together.

"Hello! Let’s get properly acquainted. My name is Zhuo Wen, and whenever I’m back in the country, I always come to visit. It’s just that back then, Mu Yichen hadn’t won you over yet."

Zhuo Wen extended her hand, politely and lively chatting with her.

"Qin Mu!"

Qin Mu extended her hand too, but only lightly clasped hers.

"You’re really beautiful! No wonder Mu Yichen was reluctant to return to the country for so many years."

Zhuo Wen said, throwing a glance at Mu Yichen.

Qin Mu suddenly realized, they seemed quite familiar?

Observing the expressions on everyone’s faces more carefully, they indeed appeared to know each other well.

Mu Yichen’s deep eyes were already looking at his wife, his hand gently pressing down a strand of hair that was sticking up on her head.

"Oh! You two are really lovey-dovey!"

Zhuo Wen sounded like an older sister.

She was the same age as Mu Yichen, but she had studied in Australia.

Qin Mu couldn’t help but smile awkwardly, taking his hand from her head and placing it back on his leg.

Mu Yichen’s gaze remained fixed on Qin Mu’s face, and the smile finally began to fade.

"Xiaowen is now a well-known designer in Australia."

Feng Fanghua introduced to Qin Mu.

"Really?" Qin Mu asked with a smile.

"Yes, if there are any good projects in the future, be sure to refer them to me."

Usually more grounded, Qin Mu’s inner child wondered, "I’m not going to invite you to Rongcheng to bother me."

Strangely, or perhaps it was a woman’s sixth sense?

Qin Mu always felt that this Zhuo Wen wouldn’t become her friend, even though Zhuo Wen was so generous and beautiful, and had given her a valuable gift.

Later, Qin Mu felt her cheeks aching from smiling, so she used fatigue as an excuse to go upstairs.

Hmm!

A bit inhospitable!

A bit improper!

But why should she pretend in front of someone else for so long?

Since they were going to be living together for a while, it might be better to let the other person get used to her true temperament sooner.

Qin Mu wasn’t vain, but she wasn’t self-deprecating either. She felt that a few hours were enough to tell whether someone was a friend or a foe.

After she went upstairs and caught her breath, Mu Yichen followed."
