"Yes, of course I remember. I think the little girl is right," he said, picking up his glasses.
Li Mu saw Qin Yin take the gold-rimmed glasses and elegantly put them on his high nose.
Uncle Qin, aren't you mixed race?
A mixed-race person? Qin Yin was puzzled.
Li Mu nodded. "Uncle Qin, your demeanor gives me the feeling of a gentleman from France, and your nose also looks like a Frenchman's nose."
Qin Yin.
Little girl.
I am not of mixed race, I am Chinese.
My appearance, features, and temperament are all innate; I am naturally beautiful.
"You're so vain," Li Mu said, covering her mouth and chuckling to herself.
Qin Yin couldn't resist pulling the little girl into his arms, tenderly kissing her forehead twice.
Feeling the restraint of Uncle Qin in front of her, Li Mu was somewhat moved.
Is this what it feels like to be in love?
Is this what it feels like to be loved?
Is this what it feels like to be truly loved by someone?
Li Mu felt a little sad when she thought of her past life. She was just like that in her past life, cautious, anxious, and meticulous, but also somewhat different.
Qin Yin felt more pity and tenderness towards himself.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel sorry for Uncle Qin.
Qin Yin ran after the little girl for a long time but found no movement. When he looked down, he could only see the little girl's fluffy little head.
She raised her hand and gently patted Li Mu's little head.
Li Mu snapped out of her daze and looked up at Qin Yin.
What's wrong, little girl? Did I hurt you because I was too rough?
No, Li Mu shook his head.
Uncle Qin.
Um.
Can you?
"Can I do what?" Qin Yin asked softly.
Can you please not be so cautious?
Um?
The way you're being so careful breaks my heart.
Qin Yin chuckled, cupped the little girl's delicate face in his hands, and looked into her eyes solemnly as he spoke.
Little girl, everything I've done for you is of my own free will. I won't let you feel sorry for me; I only want you to be happy.
The next second, Li Mu suddenly threw herself into Qin Yin's arms, tightly hugging Qin Yin's waist with both hands.
Qin Yin really didn't know what he had said, so he could only helplessly pat the little girl's back and coax her gently.
Not far away, Cao Ying, who had been staring intently at Qin Yin, was heartbroken, and her expression toward Li Mu became even more ferocious.
"You little bitch, I'm going to kill you!" he said, his face contorted with rage.
He glanced at Li Mu one last time, then at Qin Yin, before abruptly turning around and jogging away.
She kept wiping away her tears, thinking, "I must kill you, kill you, kill you," Cao Ying's eyes were red.
However, Qin Yin and Li Mu did not notice this scene. The two were very affectionate, as if they were isolated from the outside world.
After the two had gotten used to the place, they found a nearby place to eat. Then Qin Yin and Li Mu got into the car. Instead of driving immediately, Qin Yin took out a small box and handed it to Li Mu.
Li Mu glanced at Qin Yin suspiciously. "I think I've seen this little box before, Uncle Qin."
"Why don't you just open it and you'll know?" Qin Yin said with a smile.
Li Mu opened the small box and found a brooch lying quietly inside.
The Cullinan III and IV brooches are pear-shaped and weigh 94.4 carats, while the square-shaped Cullinan IV weighs 63.6 carats.
Qin introduced Li Mu in a soft voice.
Uncle Qin, what's this?
Qin Yin nodded. "Yes, you politely declined last time. This time you have the right to refuse me, so you won't refuse me this time, right?"
Li Mu glanced at the bra, then at Qin Yin.
Yes, of course I'll accept it this time.
"Let me put it on for you," Qin Yin said, his well-defined knuckles carefully placing the brooch on Li Mu's chest.
"Yes, it looks good," Qin Yin said, then got into his seat, started the car, and headed towards Qishan.
On the way back, Li Mu saw a familiar figure.
Uncle Qin, hang in there.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yin slowly stopped the car. Just as he was about to speak and ask Li Mu what was wrong, he saw Mi Lan in the direction Li Mu was looking.
"Do you want to go take a look?" Qin Yin asked.
Okay, I'll go take a look.
"Okay, get out of the car and follow me," Qin Yin said.
Li Mu nodded and followed behind Qin Yin.
The two followed Mi Lan into the old alley, and saw him enter a house. The two continued to follow him.
Qin Yin and Li Mu exchanged a glance and approached the window, where they heard sounds coming from inside.
Brother Wang, they're still looking for you outside. Don't wander off these next few days.
How are my son and daughter doing?
Your son was convicted and executed, but your daughter is still in City C, and I don't know the specifics.
What? My son is dead?
My son is dead. My son is dead. You have to stay with my son.
Ah, Brother Wang, please don't do this, Brother Wang.
Then came the story of his life playing poker.
Li Mu showed great interest.
Qin Yin's face darkened instantly upon seeing the little girl's expression, and then he walked around to Li Mu's side without any emotion.
Li Mu looked at Qin Yin, who had circled around to her, and was puzzled.
Then he watched helplessly as Uncle Qin covered his ears with his hands and led him away from the alley.
Li Mu was about to ask Qin Yin why he had brought him out.
Don't listen! Were you listening just now?
ah?
Did you hear me just now?
Huh? Ah, um.
Qin Yin's face darkened further.
You're not allowed to listen to that anymore. It's disgusting, very disgusting. You're not allowed to listen to it.
Huh? Oh, oh, I won't listen anymore.
Li Mu made a gesture as if to raise four fingers to swear an oath.
Seeing this, Qin Yin quickly stopped him, forbidding him from swearing oaths or cursing himself.
Seeing Uncle Qin's serious expression, Li Mu didn't dare to object.
She stuck out her tongue and nodded obediently.
Having received the little girl's assurance, Qin Yin's expression relaxed, and he patted her head.
Okay, leave this to me.
Qin Yin snapped his fingers, and two bodyguards got out of the car that had followed behind him.
Qin Yin ordered, "You two stay here and keep watch. Don't alert him. Monitor his every move and report anything immediately."
"Yes," the two bodyguards said in unison.
Are you relieved now?
Qin Yin looked at Li Mu.
He bent down and gently pinched the little girl's nose, his voice soothing and full of affection.
The two bodyguards standing nearby stared wide-eyed, wishing they could gouge their own eyes out. They exchanged a glance, unsure of what to do.
Qin Yin felt their gazes, his voice changed, "Aren't you going to do anything?"
Ah, yes, the two bodyguards instantly vanished as if relieved.
Okay, let's go back.
Li Mu nodded.
The two returned to Qishan.
Li Mu returned to the Li family villa.
Dad, you're back! Aunt Mi Lan, can you see me?
"Why are you asking about Aunt Mi Lan today?" Li Hongyun asked, surprised.
It's nothing. I always see Aunt Mi Lan when I come back. I didn't see her this time, so I was just asking.
