Chapter 604 Hereditary Mental Illness

She looked at him intently as he massaged her waist.

After a while, when he thought it was enough, he retracted his hand and met her gaze.

"Still feeling sore?" He arched his eyebrows.

She returned to her senses and stuttered, "N-No."

He stopped speaking and turned back to look at the river, leaning against the bench.

His eyes were half-narrowed, and he looked contemplative.

The glow of the sun seemed to light him up. Ensconced in the rays, he looked rather ethereal.

Ziyue suddenly said, "Muchen."

He slowly turned around before holding her in his embrace.

Though surprised, she leaned on his chest docilely.

It had been a while since they had been at peace with each other.

…

On Monday, Muchen went to work early in the morning.

Before leaving, Ziyue helped him with his necktie. The loving atmosphere between them had sustained since returning from the river.

After sending him off, she planned to visit Xiyi.

There was a sense of camaraderie between them after frequent interactions. They would only speak about Muchen privately without letting him know.

It was difficult for him to notice the change in his temperament. Even if he felt it himself, Ziyue couldn't bring herself to point it out.

"How's it going with Muchen's report?"

Before leaving, she called him to give him a heads-up. Hence, he was already expecting her.

"No problems with his health." Xiyi led her into the room as he explained Muchen's condition.

It was great news that he was healthy.

"What about the rest?" Ziyue asked.

"We couldn't find out much about the rest. Based on his recent behavior, I can only deduce what's going on with his mental state."

As they chatted, they reached his lab.

"Please take a seat." He pulled the chair for her and poured a glass of water.

She noticed a few new additions on his work desk – psychology books.

He noticed her preoccupation and tidied the books, putting them aside before sitting opposite her.

"I noticed a pattern – he's more prone to losing his temper in front of the people he's close with." After a pause, he continued, "I visited a few employees from LK Group yesterday to understand his behavior in the company. Though he's mostly short-tempered, it's not that bad."

"You're saying that… he only does that to me?" Ziyue shook her head and corrected herself. "No, I mean - does he only do that to people he's close with?"

"Yes," he continued. "Everyone has the instinct to avoid risks, including Mr. Qin. He is a careful and prudent person. I guess you are the only one he is the most comfortable with, so he has no reservations about how he behaves around you."

There was a moment of relief for Ziyue, but things didn't seem that good considering how he restricted her freedom.

"He thinks I love Shichu and even suspects that I don't want to have his kids because of Shichu," she said in amusement. "He doesn't believe me no matter how much I try to explain."

After hearing her explanation, Xiyi sank into deep thoughts. Then, he repeated, "He won't believe you."

"Why? I notice he has become quite suspicious and irate lately. His temper is also very unpredictable. But…" Ziyue couldn't think of a better adjective and swept her hair behind her ears. "Sometimes, he is very gentle and loving."

Giving me massages and hugging me in bed – those are quite affectionate of him.

As soon as she finished speaking, she blushed. I don't mean to flaunt anything.
