Background / History

Mu Ziqing grew up alongside Su Chen and followed him around as “Brother Su Chen.” She retained a long-standing crush on him after they lost contact when she joined the military. 305 306

She became the Mu Family’s renowned Fire Phoenix: an elite Outer Regions special-forces commander and an Intermediate Fourth-Rank Martial Artist by age 30. 60

Before Su Chen learned the truth, Mu Ziqing gave birth to twins, Big Treasure and Little Treasure, through IVF using Su Chen’s sperm. She raised them without exposing their paternity, even after realizing that Su Chen was with her best friend, Lin Wanxue. 303 305 306

Appearance

Mu Ziqing is a 165 cm tall woman with a graceful, athletic figure, fair skin, and a cold, exquisite beauty. Su Chen initially fails to recognize her as the dark-skinned, round-faced childhood friend he remembered. 60 61 239

Personality

She is deeply considerate of Lin Wanxue despite sharing feelings for Su Chen. Before their relationship was acknowledged, Mu Ziqing concealed both her affection and the twins’ paternity rather than disrupt Su Chen and Lin Wanxue’s family. 303 306
