Qin Mu ate that meal with fear and trepidation. She intentionally delayed leaving until Jing Qing and Qin Mingzhu had gone, then awkwardly but politely expressed her gratitude to Feng Fanghua, "Thank you for the breakfast, I really liked it."
"I didn't prepare it, so no need to thank me."
Qin Mu knew she wouldn't receive any kind words but didn't get angry. She was silently grateful since Feng Fanghua hadn't tried to coax her away in front of Jing Qing that day.
"Aren't you supposed to go to work?"
"Oh, yes!"
Only then did Qin Mu remember the important matter at hand.
She went upstairs to get her bag, and when she saw a plate of oranges on the table, she sneakily took two while Feng Fanghua had gone. After walking a few steps, she turned back, grabbed another two for her bag, and left.
Her cautious yet playfully mischievous demeanor made an auntie watching nearby chuckle.
Qin Mu chuckled too, "You've worked hard, goodbye!"
