His Beloved Treasure

Qin Mingzhu heard that they didn’t like it, and thought, I must order it.

Of course, neither Qin Mu nor Helian Hao stopped her, but they wondered what Wang Huanyu would say if he found out.

They wondered if he would think Qin Mu and Helian Hao weren’t paying enough attention to Qin Mingzhu’s health. They were a little worried, as they both knew Wang Huanyu might stay in Rongcheng in the future, and they really couldn’t afford to offend him.

Helian Hao and Qin Mu exchanged glances and then smiled helplessly.

"Qin Mingzhu, if your husband decides to settle here, will he convict Qin Mu and me for not caring about your health? We really dare not offend you!"

Helian Hao jokingly asked Qin Mingzhu.

"Well, who knows, maybe!"

Qin Mingzhu understood and, holding back a laugh, pretended to be the wife of an important figure.

The thought actually made Helian Hao nervous.

"Haha, just joking, we’re all sisters here!"

Seeing Helian Hao’s nervous face, Qin Mingzhu quickly laughed and said it was a joke.

Helian Hao...

Qin Mu sighed helplessly and then said, "Having a meal feels like a spy movie."

Qin Mu wasn’t feeling particularly hungry, but today at lunch, she felt almost normal, at least aware that some dishes didn’t appeal to her.

Qin Mu ordered a glass of wine. Qin Mingzhu, being pregnant, didn’t drink, and Helian Hao didn’t either. This made Qin Mu suddenly remember something, and she stared at Helian Hao intently, holding her wine glass seriously.

Helian Hao felt guilty under her gaze, drinking soup and asking, "What’s up?"

"You’re drinking soup!"

Qin Mu said.

"Is it not allowed? Last time while drinking soup, I heard some unpleasant words and ended up pouring the soup on Zhang Hongyun’s face. Today, I need to drink more, and by the way, I did it to avenge you, so you should pay for this meal."

Helian Hao said while drinking, avoiding eye contact with Qin Mu.

Qin Mu was shocked by the news that Helian Hao had poured fish soup on Zhang Hongyun?

"Oh my god, Xiaohao, did you really do that? Pour fish soup on someone’s face? Hahaha, with all those fish bones, did that woman get disfigured?"

Qin Mingzhu was immediately drawn in, excitedly asking.

"She was lucky. The soup was hot, but there weren’t any bones. That woman was foolish enough to use ice wine on her face."

Helian Hao couldn’t help but laugh as she spoke.

The three of them weren’t speaking loudly, but Qin Mingzhu and Helian Hao laughed for quite a while, making some nearby people glance at them, despite not seeing clearly.

"Tell me, what did that woman say to make you so angry? You are a refined lady! How could you do something like me, a spoilt young lady, would?"

Qin Mingzhu recalled her knowledge of Helian Hao, poised and a model in the eyes of the elders.

"What? She actually thought with my father gone, there was no one to support my sister? That woman deserved to be punished! And she hinted that my sister might divorce my brother-in-law and even wanted to climb into his bed? This kind of woman infuriates me even thinking about it!"

As Qin Mingzhu spoke, she suddenly rolled up her sleeves and slapped the table with her delicate hands.

"Keep it down, will you? Such drama!"

Qin Mu glanced at her and said quietly, sensing occasional curious glances from strangers.

"Strange, you don’t seem angry at all?"

Qin Mingzhu was immediately displeased when told to keep calm so indifferently.

"Why should I be angry? She’s just daydreaming. If I stooped to her level, wouldn’t I be just like her?"

Qin Mu retorted.

Qin Mingzhu...

Helian Hao...

"Are you implying we’re not on the same level as you?"

Qin Mingzhu and Helian Hao suddenly spoke in unison, surprising Qin Mu, who thought her ears were deceiving her as it seemed these two were breathing the same air now.

"Alright! I take my words back. With you by my side, why should I fear her?"

Qin Mu raised her eyebrows, changing her tune.

Qin Mingzhu and Helian Hao finally forgave her.

Qin Mu chuckled helplessly: "Honestly, you two pregnant women are quite a pair now!"

"Two pregnant women?"

Qin Mingzhu repeated her words instinctively.

"Hmm!"

Qin Mu nodded and looked at Helian Hao.

Helian Hao giggled, and then seriously finished the bowl of fish soup.

"Xiaohao, pregnant?"

Qin Mingzhu was still in disbelief, wondering what’s going on? How is Helian Hao suddenly pregnant?

"I first want to apologize; I shouldn’t have kept it from you, but please understand, I just found out and didn’t have time to tell you... could you forgive me?"

Helian Hao suddenly put down the spoon, sincerely explaining to Qin Mu.

Qin Mu understood, her eyes flickered, and she smiled: "You found out quite late, but shouldn’t we be congratulating you now?"

As Qin Mu spoke, she raised her wine glass, glanced at Qin Mingzhu, and Qin Mingzhu quickly picked up her water glass, with Helian Hao happily joining with her cup.

"Who are we congratulating?"

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind.
