Chapter 1047: Chapter 1047: Climactic Request for Subscription in Marital Duties (7)

"Hmm..."

"Of course... Hopefully this time, you can get pregnant smoothly. Since it’s your first time, it might be a bit uncomfortable... Take good care of yourself these days... Mu Wan, do you have any concerns?"

After Qin Mu finished speaking, he lifted his gaze and looked at the woman in front of him, seeking her opinion.

"No..."

"Alright, a pleasant collaboration..."

Qin Mu set down his chopsticks and extended his large hand in the direction of Mu Wan.

Mu Wan: "..."

The most beautiful romance...

She thought... perhaps Qin Mu’s attitude toward her had changed.

Unexpectedly, it was still the same formulaic approach as always.

A wave of sourness rose in Mu Wan’s heart. She looked at the man before her, slowly lifted her hand, and placed it in his.

"Hmm... cooperation... a pleasant cooperation."

"Hmm... I have some matters to attend to this afternoon... I’ll be leaving first. Take your time eating... If you need anything, just let the secretary know."

"Alright..."

Qin Mu cast a deep glance at the woman with her head lowered and silent, suppressing the inexplicable feeling in his heart, then turned and left.

Mu Wan was nothing more than Mrs. Qin, a titleholder. He needed a Mrs. Qin for appearances, and he needed a child...

Qin Mu’s thin lips tightened ever so slightly...

Having a child between the two of them was merely a matter of cooperation.

Nothing more.

...

Mu Wan waited until Qin Mu was completely gone. She pressed her lips together, chewing the plain white rice in front of her, which now tasted like wax.

The female secretary, noticing her reaction, couldn’t resist speaking, "Miss Mu... In truth, President Qin has always had this kind of temperament... Please... don’t be upset."

"It’s fine."

Mu Wan responded faintly...

She was merely... thinking about how yesterday, Qin Mu had carried her out of the operating room and extended his hand toward her.

And then... she had recklessly thrown herself at him like a moth to a flame.

So... she only had herself to blame for courting disappointment.

Mu Wan had been bringing this heartache upon herself for many years, so... she had grown somewhat accustomed to it.

Yet, the overwhelming sense of loss in her heart lingered and refused to dissipate.

"Then... could I trouble you to eat with me? Otherwise... it might go to waste... It’s hard to find authentic Chinese food in France... and the flavors here are very true to home."

"Of course..."

The female secretary hesitated for a moment. She wanted to speak up but held back. Yesterday, seeing that Miss Mu didn’t enjoy Western food much, President Qin had specifically arranged for someone to prepare this meal for her today – something nutritious to help her recover.

"Um... Miss Mu... This black-bone chicken soup was specially added to the meal by President Qin. Please have more of it."

Mu Wan: "..."

Mu Wan looked at the black-bone chicken soup before her. The aroma was tantalizing; it indeed looked delicious.

"Hmm... Actually... it’s mainly for nurturing the body. It’ll help improve the chances of pregnancy."

Mu Wan spoke indifferently. Such things were unspoken yet understood between them.

Just earlier... Qin Mu had still been reminding her... to have a "pleasant cooperation."

The female secretary: "..."

Truthfully... after working by President Qin’s side for so many years, she hadn’t thought of him as this kind of person.

President Qin actually did show some concern for Miss Mu.

Mu Wan wore a calm expression... The secretary dared not say more and simply accompanied her to finish the meal.

...

It was Qin Mu’s first time, and she herself had no experience either. Initially, he hadn’t wanted to hurt Mu Wan, but even so, she ended up bedridden for two days, needing to apply ointment before she felt slightly better.
