Marry Me Quick

Chapter 161

Su Ziyue looked at him through hazy eyes. Was this a reward or just him taking advantage?

Seeing Su Ziyue stare at him in a stunned manner, Qin Muchen couldn’t help but reach out and pinch her face, planting another peck on her cheek. “Go along and wash up now. Come down for breakfast once you’re dressed.”

With that, he turned around and went out of the room. It was only after he had left did Su Ziyue walk out of the dressing room while touching her burning face.

...

By the time Su Ziyue finished washing up and went downstairs, Qin Muchen had already cooked up a simple breakfast as though nothing had happened between them at all. Su Ziyue sat down from across him and took a sip of warm milk, the warmth extending all the way to her heart.

Qin Muchen cut into his fried egg as he said, “I will be heading to work later. Come with me.”

It wasn’t a question, but rather a statement; that meant Qin Muchen had already made up his mind to take her to work. He was simply informing her, not asking her.

Su Ziyue was a little surprised, but she still nodded and agreed to it, “Okay.”

If she followed him to work, the employees would recognize her at the very least. She didn’t want the receptionist to stop her from entering again the next time she went to look for him.

Evidently, Qin Muchen was very pleased with Su Ziyue’s answer.

After they had finished breakfast, the two of them headed to LK. A look of surprise flashed across the receptionist’s eyes when she saw Qin Muchen and Su Ziyue walking in together while holding hands. “Good morning, chairman. Good morning to you too, Miss Su!”

Qin Muchen frowned slightly and eyed the receptionist. “Call her Mrs. Qin.”

The receptionist cried out in surprise from being overwhelmed. “What?”

The chairman is married?

She thought that Su Ziyue was just some stranger who had once warmed the chairman’s bed. She didn’t expect that the chairman would order her to call Su Ziyue ‘Mrs. Qin’.

Qin Muchen eyed her coldly, and the receptionist immediately changed her tune. “M-Mrs. Qin…”

However, she still couldn’t control the stutter in her voice.

“Mm. Watch yourself,” Qin Muchen replied coldly before taking Su Ziyue upstairs.

The receptionist quietly wiped away her sweat. The chairman’s final words were clearly an order for her to keep this secret.

However, she felt uneasy if she had to keep this to herself. The young and promising chairman was already married, and his wife was also the second daughter of the Su family.

Oh God!

The receptionist felt like she was just let in on an earth-shattering secret. Throughout the day, her heart remained heavy. Even if she were to spread it, less than a handful of people in the company had ever seen Qin Muchen.

...

Su Ziyue stood next to Qin Muchen inside the elevator, her mind replaying Qin Muchen’s words to the receptionist earlier. There was a question that she was dying to ask; it was something that she had purposely ignored, but no matter how she ignored it, the question still remained. Even when they were about to step into his office, Su Ziyue still wondered whether she should ask him.

Qin Muchen noticed Su Ziyue’s oddities and asked her, “What do you want to say?”

Su Ziyue raised her head to look at him. She pursed her lips and looked at him with a solemn expression on her face. “Why… have you always kept your identity a secret?”

He hadn’t just hidden it from her; he even deliberately hid the fact that he was the chairman of LK Group—the ruler of them all—from everyone else.

While this problem didn’t seem to affect their lives, it still existed. Besides, she wanted to know the reason behind it as well.

To her, his past was utterly mysterious. She only knew that he was Qin Muchen, the current chairman of the LK Group. Other than that, she knew nothing else about him. In contrast, he knew a lot more about her.

It wasn’t like she absolutely needed to know, but they were husband and wife, who even shared a bed. Naturally, she’d get the urge to ask when he constantly kept this a secret.

Qin Muchen stopped what he was doing. A few seconds later, he finally looked at Su Ziyue and asked her, “Do you really wish to know?”

Su Ziyue hastily shook her head. “No, it’s just…”

Qin Muchen put down the things he was carrying. His black eyes bore into her, making Su Ziyue feel weighed down for some inexplicable reason.

Su Ziyue met his pitch-black eyes; for some reason, she suddenly shook her head and said, “I just thought of asking—you don’t have to tell me.”

Qin Muchen ignored her words and continued by himself, “I’ll tell you once the lunar new year is over.”

“Really?” Su Ziyue could even sense the surprise in her voice.

With that, she averted her gaze to look elsewhere.

While she had a burning desire to know, she could still sense the solemness in Qin Muchen’s words; it was as though he had steeled himself greatly before deciding to tell her this.

“It’s fine. If it’s really a difficult thing for you, you don’t have to tell me—it’s not like it’s affecting our life anyway.”

As Su Ziyue spoke, she watched Qin Muchen’s expression.

Qin Muchen suddenly chuckled upon hearing her words. “What? Are you finally being considerate toward me now?”
