His Beloved Treasure-Chapter 677: Tiger on the Mountain_4
Chapter 677: Tiger on the Mountain_4
"That’s good!"
Mu Qingxin raised her cup of tea to clink glasses with her.
"But is your sister-in-law easy to get along with? She seems quite aloof."
Le Yuanyuan asked while sipping her tea.
"Oh, her! If you get to know her, she’s very approachable, but she’s shy with strangers."
"I see!"
Le Yuanyuan nodded, thinking to herself that this kind of personality must be related to childhood shadows. If one grew up in a cheerful family, a child definitely wouldn’t be so introverted or shy.
"But she is certainly a person who distinguishes right from wrong, rest assured."
Mu Qingxin said as she put down her tea cup and then added, "By the way! I heard our class leader is chasing you, what do you think about that?"
"Him? Everything’s good, just his family background isn’t that great! You know my situation, my family isn’t that well off, so of course, I hope my husband’s family will be better off. Even if not as rich and wealthy as your family, at the very least, capable of a decent living, right? If the other half still has to work hard for a living after getting married, I don’t think our marriage would be very happy, so... maybe, not all childhood sweethearts end up as husbands."
Le Yuanyuan touched their family’s tea cup, finding her own life somewhat laughable. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
At the same age, but because of different backgrounds, everything is different.
Different food, different homes, and naturally, different experiences.
It’s like one person is at the very bottom of society while another, bored with life, occupies a high position in society.
Le Yuanyuan looked at Mu Qingxin, who had been a little mischievous since childhood and was still somewhat improperly behaved now, and couldn’t help but ask, "Your husband adores you, doesn’t he?"
"Humph! If he didn’t cherish me, why on earth would I marry him?"
Mu Qingxin muttered, remembering the phone call from last night, he said he would come to pick her up today, but she didn’t ask what time he would come, nor did she want to ask, so...
Clearly anxious, yet pretending to be calm.
"That’s right! You don’t worry about food or clothes, living in a mansion, with people to serve you. If you want to travel, maybe tomorrow you’re already in the country farthest from Rongcheng."
Le Yuanyuan said with a smile, her expression full of wistfulness.
"Hey, what’s with you today? So jealous!"
Mu Qingxin couldn’t help but ask, feeling that something was off with Le Yuanyuan.
Le Yuanyuan, however, was looking around the house, feeling that even a single bench here might cost more than their family’s sofa.
"Qingxin, what’s it like to be pampered from childhood?"
"No big deal! Aren’t parents supposed to love me? But I’ve always disliked Qin Mu since childhood, she stole my brother away, hmph!"
Mu Qingxin, in fact, no longer harbored any resentment, talking casually as she nonchalantly ate her fruit.
Le Yuanyuan looked down at her, chuckling softly.
Mu Qingxin invited Le Yuanyuan to stay for lunch at her home, and Le Yuanyuan agreed, wanting to taste what meals were like in a wealthy household. Although Mu Qingxin felt a bit awkward, she didn’t say much, only feeling a bit guilty as she glanced upstairs, worried that Qin Mu might really get upset.
"Don’t bring up Qin Mu’s matters during the meal; she doesn’t like to talk about it."
"Mm!"
Mu Qingxin whispered a reminder, and Le Yuanyuan agreed.
When Mu Yichen came home at noon, he saw there was an extra person, and Qin Mu was not there.
In the living room, two girls of the same age sat, talking about fun times at school. Mu Qingxin was the most boisterous, while Le Yuanyuan maintained an air of dignity.
"The young master is back!"
The aunt came out to refill their tea and noticed the presence of Mu Yichen.
Both girls looked to the side and saw Mu Yichen coming over, Mu Qingxin raised her hand to greet him: "Bro, this is my classmate, that female reporter who helped you fulfill your wish."
Mu Qingxin said, winking at him.
"Where is your sister-in-law?"
Mu Yichen frowned slightly without looking at Le Yuanyuan and asked Mu Qingxin.
"She said she was a bit sleepy, so she went to bed!"
Mu Qingxin replied, and suddenly the living room fell quiet.
"Just went up?"
Mu Yichen asked again.
"No, she’s been there since nine something... it’s already..."
"Two hours plus!"
Mu Qingxin said, glancing at Le Yuanyuan, who then chimed in.
"Right, right, right!"
Mu Qingxin nodded again and again in agreement.
Mu Yichen finally gave a glance towards Le Yuanyuan, devoid of any warmth in his eyes.
Le Yuanyuan politely nodded at him without greeting him out loud, the perfect portrait of propriety.
