"Thank you very much."
Cheng Yanmo turned the car around and drove off, calling his special assistant on the way. "Check if the Lin family in Zijing Capital is selling their house. If so, I'll take it."
"Okay, Master Cheng."

Mu Qiu returned home and changed into slippers. Afraid of disturbing her family, she walked upstairs quietly holding her high heels.
There was a lot of work to do in the second half of the year, so Mu Mian returned home early in the afternoon and worked in his study after dinner. Late at night, he came out of the study and ran into Mu Qiu, who was sneaking upstairs to his room in the corridor.
"Qiu Qiu." Mu Mian called Mu Qiu.
Mu Qiu was startled. She quickly turned around and looked at Mu Mian. "Dad, you haven't rested yet?"
"No." Mu Mian stared at Mu Qiu's slightly swollen lips and frowned. He was an experienced person and knew the reason why Mu Qiu's lips were red and swollen. Mu Mian asked thoughtfully: "Qiu Qiu, are you in love?"
Hearing this, Mu Qiu was frightened. She pretended to be calm and said, "No, Dad..." Mu Qiu lacked confidence.
Mu Mian saw through Mu Qiu's lie immediately. "Qiu Qiu, you..." Mu Mian wanted to tell Mu Qiu that you were going to die and you couldn't fall in love. But he couldn't say it.
After a long silence, Mu Mian said, "Dad respects every decision you make. I just want you to be happy."
Hearing this, Mu Qiu smiled sweetly and couldn't help but act coquettishly with Mu Mian, "Thank you, Dad. I love you the most."
Mu Mian smiled dotingly, watching Mu Qiu go back to his room, and then returned to his own room. Du Tingting was woken up by him. She turned on the wall lamp and asked Mu Mian: "Is Qiu back?"
"yes."
Mu Mian lay down and hugged Du Tingting. After hesitating for a while, he told Du Tingting about Mu Qiu's love affair. "Qiu Qiu'er, that kid, seems to be in love."
Du Tingting was shocked and said subconsciously: "How can she be in a relationship in this situation?"
Mu Mian sighed, his heart aching. He said, "Qiu Qiu'er is twenty now, she's no longer a little girl. Meeting a boy she likes and being able to have a relationship before... she'll have one less regret."
After hearing what Mu Mian said, Du Tingting fell silent.
Just thinking about Mu Qiu's physical condition made her worried. "Qiu Qiu'er's condition is so unfair to boys."
"I'm very selfish." Mu Mian hugged Du Tingting tightly and said, "I just want Qiu'er to be happy."
Mu Qiu's life was coming to an end, and Du Tingting hoped that Mu Qiu could live a happy and comfortable life in the remaining days. "Forget it, let her do what she wants."
Mu Mian didn't want Du Tingting to worry, so he changed the subject. "By the way, are you going for a prenatal checkup tomorrow? I'm off work this morning, so I'll go with you."
As expected, upon hearing this, Du Tingting forgot about what she had just done. She replied, "Yes, I have to go for a prenatal checkup tomorrow, and it would be better if you could come with me. There are so many young women in the hospital, and it would be embarrassing for a middle-aged woman like me with a big belly to stand with them."
Mu Mian laughed, "You are much prettier than them. They are in their forties, but not as pretty as you."
Du Tingting felt relieved after hearing this. "You're just sweet-talking! Go to sleep and get up early tomorrow morning for your prenatal checkup, or you'll have to wait in line."
"good."
The next day, Du Tingting and Mu Mian got up early and went to the maternity and child health hospital to queue up for prenatal check-ups.
Mu Qiu came back late last night, took a bath, and went to bed at two o'clock. According to her biological clock, she usually sleeps until ten o'clock.
But at 8:40, Mu Qiu suddenly woke up.
She was awakened by feeling unwell.
Mu Qiu suddenly opened his eyes and pressed his left hand against his chest. Inside his chest, his heart was beating like a hammer, making a thumping sound.
Mu Qiu felt suffocated and his heartbeat was irregular. He couldn't breathe and was a little panicked. In desperation, the helpless Mu Qiu called out to Du Tingting several times in fear, "Mom!"
"Mother!"
No one answered her!
Panic and helplessness instantly occupied Mu Qiu's consciousness.
The doctor told Mu Qiu that if she repeatedly experienced irregular heartbeats, shortness of breath, and chest tightness, it would be a sign of rapid heart failure. Mu Qiu thought she was going to die and was so scared that tears came to her eyes.
In a hurry, she opened her cell phone and typed a sentence into the text box -
"Mom and Dad, I'm leaving. Don't be sad for me. Brother Mo, I'm sorry." After tremblingly editing this message, Mu Qiu's heartbeat gradually returned to normal. She sat on the bed, sweating profusely, and couldn't help but touch her forehead.
Mu Qiu felt sweat on his hands.
Mu Qiu truly realized that he didn't have much time left.
Mu Qiu hadn't had any health issues in the past two months, and he optimistically believed he could live a little longer. After all, even doctors make mistakes sometimes, right? But this arrhythmia completely shattered Mu Qiu's hope and optimism.
Mu Qiu was so scared that she turned pale. She lay on the bed and rested for a while before taking out her cell phone and sending a WeChat message to Cheng Yanmo.
[Brother Mo, can I come find you?] At this moment, Mu Qiu suddenly wanted to stay with Cheng Yanmo.
Cheng Yanmo: [Come.]
Mu Qiu got up, washed her face, put on a facial mask, and then put on some light makeup on her pale face to make it look more youthful.
She changed into a light yellow long-sleeved dress and tied a playful little bun in her hair. She went downstairs with her bag on her back and walked into the living room, where she met her parents who had returned from their prenatal checkup.
