章節 10: Chapter 010 Mutual Possession Between Spouses
Shaocheng's words had barely left his mouth.
Qin Wan's eyes suddenly brightened.
She immediately stood up from the couch.
She, who was half a head shorter than him, slightly tilted up her small face.
Her eyes, bright as the stars, reflected his figure.
"Are you serious?"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Shaocheng smiled.
Qin Wan lowered her gaze in thought.
Although she found him annoying,
He seldom lied to her; he generally just outright disliked her.
He promised that if she married him, he would help save her brother, and he indeed did.
Thinking of this, she felt that, even if he loved Su Qing his entire life, she would accept it.
Just to guard her own heart.
Once she thought it through,
a brighter smile lightened up Qin Wan's beautiful face, dazzlingly beautiful, "Then I'll trouble Mr. Mu to care a little more...about how long will it take?"
Shaocheng gave her a look.
Proudly, he sat down in front of the couch.
One hand half-clenched into a fist, resting by his mouth as he coughed dryly.
Qin Wan blinked twice, understandingly, and poured him a glass of water.
"I haven't had dinner yet."
'Give him an inch and he takes a mile,' perfectly describes this kind of man—Mu Shaocheng.
Qin Wan held back in her heart.
Her smile radiantly bright, she asked, "What would Mr. Mu like to eat? I'll ask Auntie to make it for you."
"Why don't you cook a bowl of noodles for me? I did rescue Qin Zheng for you, that should be worth a bowl of noodles."
"Mr. Mu, I have already given you myself."
"You might be misunderstanding the obligations between a husband and a wife. The possession is mutual. You've lost yourself, and so have I. Of course, if you don't want to cook the noodles, that's fine too—just skip one meal, and you don't need to worry about widowhood."
As Shaocheng spoke, he stood up ready to leave.
Qin Wan took a deep breath.
She silently told herself to bear it for now.
Having already lost herself, what was a bowl of noodles?
"Wait, I'll cook them for you."
"Hmm. Add an egg, no green onions."
"..."
Qin Wan went downstairs to cook the noodles.
In the master bedroom, Mu Shaocheng dialed Zuo Zhan's number.
After two rings, Zuo Zhan's voice came through, "Sir, Fu Minghan has already left."
"I'm not asking about Fu Minghan."
Mu Shaocheng frowned slightly and asked indifferently, "That day, when Qin Wan went to the Su family to collect her belongings, what did Qin Shumei say to her?"
"Sir..."
Bringing this up, Zuo Zhan hesitated.
Mu Shaocheng's expression darkened, "Speak."
Zuo Zhan immediately turned into a parrot, repeating verbatim what Qin Shumei had said to him.
"Sir, there's something I don't know if I should say."
After Zuo Zhan finished speaking, not hearing Mu Shaocheng speak, he grew uneasy.
Mu Shaocheng, "If you have something to say, spit it out."
Zuo Zhan began, "Sir, after Mrs. Su said those words, I saw tears in the young madam's eyes. If it were me, I would be very sad too. Could you perhaps explain to the young madam before you meet Miss Su next time?"
"Are you growing too bold?"
Mu Shaocheng asked coldly.
Zuo Zhan immediately snapped back to attention, his voice shaking, "Sir, I didn't mean it, I was just talking nonsense. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
Mu Shaocheng looked at the hung-up phone.
He wanted to kill Zuo Zhan.

Downstairs in the kitchen.
Qin Wan, wearing a floral apron, waited for the water in the pot to boil while answering a call.
It was from her best friend and studio partner, Xie Mengmeng, "Wanwan, Director Li has asked again. He wants to know how much longer you need to think it over before you agree to take on 'Eternal Love.'
Qin Wan's mouth twitched slightly.
'Eternal Love' was the last work of the famous writer Wang Shuran.
It depicted the real love story between Miss Wang and Director Li.
From their green years to their grey hairs, through storms and rainbows, they had walked side by side until Miss Wang passed away in a hospital two months ago.
Director Li had gathered movie queens and emperors to film a TV series of 'Eternal Love.'
He had also approached Qin Wan, the queen of voice acting, to do the audio drama.
Furthermore, the plan was for the TV series and the audio drama to be released simultaneously next year.
