Chapter 2406: Returned (4)_5

“It’s not the first time we’ve had a cold war!”

Qin Mu spoke softly, holding the cup lightly on the table’s edge. The cup was still warm, much like her demeanor—able to sit calmly and chat with Feng Fanghua, no, being interrogated, or to put it nicely, questioned.

“It’s true that your cold war isn’t the first, but this is the longest since you got married. You two are really making a fuss!”

Feng Fanghua chuckled again, thinking that she’s already tired, should they not be tired?

Since they don’t make up, why not make it straightforward for each other? Why drag it out, entangle, and when will it ever end?

“I know it’s Yichen who’s not willing to let you go, but if you really want to separate from him, there are certainly ways out, aren’t there?”

“What ways?”

Qin Mu curiously sized up Feng Fanghua. Hearing her speak so discreetly about this, she suddenly became interested.

Feng Fanghua turned her head, her vigilant gaze swept over Qin Mu’s restrained eyes.

“The simplest way is to make him give up the thought, find a man!”

When Feng Fanghua mentioned finding a man, she felt a bit uncomfortable, though her words seemed light, she’d already furrowed her brow.

Of course, this wasn’t her wish either. She just didn’t want to see her son struggle and end up in such a mess.

Qin Mu was startled as she looked at her.

Even the servants behind were stunned pale, feeling Feng Fanghua shouldn’t have said such words.

The cook was the first to step out: “Madam, I disagree with your words. The young master and young lady have feelings for so many years, how can you break them apart like this?”

“Exactly, madam, it’s really too much to say something like that, they’re a loving couple.”

“Madam, you really shouldn’t say that!”

Several servants busy in the kitchen suddenly came out and started speaking in the dining room, all standing behind Qin Mu.

Feng Fanghua looked back: “I’m talking to her, what are you all doing here?”

Meaning, what rights do you have to speak here?

The servants were unwilling, but considering their position, they could only endure.

“Even if it is a good method…”

Qin Mu’s eyes, even the expression on her face, was already lackluster.

That particular feeling in her heart was indescribable. She had no time to care for her inner feelings, as if all sensations now were unimportant.

She let out a light moan, and the people behind her held their breath, fearing that she might really go along with Feng Fanghua’s intention.

“But why should I sacrifice half my life with another person to make him give up that thought?”

After speaking, Qin Mu sighed again: “I know you’re just suggesting, not sincerely wanting this, but such words are still hurtful!”

Qin Mu stood up, tears in her eyes, but those tears would never fall.

Feng Fanghua lifted her eyes, her eyebrows still knitted: “What are you going to do?”

“Mom! Everything you’ve done and all the ruthless words you’ve said, I understand the reasons. You wouldn’t want to harm us but please, could you not say such things in the future?”

She still called Feng Fanghua mom, because that’s what she felt in her heart.

Feng Fanghua suddenly fell silent, staring at her sparkling eyes, suddenly at a loss for words.

“I fear if I stay any longer, you won’t enjoy this meal, I’m taking my leave!”

Qin Mu lightly nodded, then turned to leave.

Feng Fanghua sat in the dining room by herself, suddenly frustrated, pushing the plate on the table’s edge inward, the sound of plates clashing was heard, and the servants standing nearby felt uncomfortable.

As soon as Qin Mu exited the dining room, she saw someone standing not far away, her heart suddenly panicked, her tears were about to fall, she took a deep breath, barely closed her mouth, only trying hard, to give a calm smile.
