Marry Me Quick

Chapter 187

Chapter 187

Su Ziyue spent the entire day with An Xia.

After having dinner at a restaurant, they returned to their respective places.

Su Ziyue hesitated for several seconds before she pushed open the door of her unit.

Inside the pitch black unit, she could detect the presence of no one else other than herself, which meant Qin Muchen was not there.

She felt relieved first and then a mild sense of loss.

Trying to stop herself from overthinking, she went to bed after washing up.

She took a long time to fall asleep and she wondered whether it was because the space beside her was empty.



The next day was a Monday.

Su Ziyue put on the new clothes she had purchased yesterday with An Xia and set off to the office after applying some makeup.



Everyone knew about the cancellation of Gong Zeyang and Su Yige’s engagement after the interview was aired yesterday.

The moment Su Ziyue stepped into the office, she could sense the subtle difference in the atmosphere.

Although she did not mean to eavesdrop, she could still catch snippets of conversation around her talking about the matter.

“Have you heard about Young Lady Su and Young Master Gong’s decision to call off their engagement?”

“I watched their interview yesterday. Do you think the decision was really made in peace?”

“That’s too much of a coincidence. Didn’t Young Lady Su go overseas for several months before this? Could she have had an affair there… so…”


While Su Ziyue was walking to her office, comments of such a nature could be heard everywhere.

To be honest, she secretly relished listening to those slanderous remarks from her fellow colleagues.

In fact, she was also curious about the real reason behind their breakup.

“Good morning, Director Su!” A group of female colleagues, who had been gossiping about Su Yige and Gong Zeyang just now, immediately stopped their discussion when they saw Su Ziyue and greeted her instead.

Su Ziyue nodded at them in response to their greetings.

Just as she stepped into her room, she received a call from Su Youcheng.

“I suppose you’ve reached the office? Please come to my office now!” Su Youcheng’s voice sounded as stern as usual and he hung up on her right after he gave her his instruction.

Looking unruffled, Su Ziyue kept away her phone and made her way to Su Youcheng’s room.

When she reached his office, she knocked on his door steadily and only pushed the door open and walked inside after getting his acknowledgement.

She found Su Yige, who looked dispirited, there too.

Ignoring Su Yige directly, she beamed at Su Youcheng and asked, “Grandpa, how can I help you?”

As one shouldn’t treat a smiling person with hostility, Su Youcheng spoke calmly with a deep frown on his forehead although he was in a fit of anger, “Take a seat. I have some questions for you.”

Su Ziyue took a step back and sat down opposite Su Yige. “Please go ahead.”

Noticing Su Ziyue was looking composed with a clear conscience, Su Youcheng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, “Have you been secretly keeping in touch with Gong Zeyang?”

“I don’t really understand your question.” Su Ziyue’s expression turned slightly somber. Despite telling her grandfather that she was confused, something had already dawned upon her inside.

In the end, Su Yige, who was sitting directly opposite her, spoke before Su Youcheng could. “Ziyue, I had no idea that you’ve always had a crush on Zeyang. If you had told me earlier, I would have given up on him. But what you did has brought great embarrassment to me…”

Suddenly, her voice turned croaky and she seemed too grief-stricken to be able to finish the remaining part of her sentence.

Su Ziyue’s eyes turned cold at once because it was obvious Su Yige was implying something with her words.

Instead of speaking right away, she only cast Su Yige a glance before turning to face Su Youcheng.

A trace of fury slowly emerged on Su Youcheng’s face when he noticed Su Ziyue’s indifference.

Su Yige was his granddaughter whom he had watched grow up and on whom he had pinned high hopes. At first, he had assumed that nothing could ever go wrong with her engagement with Gong Zeyang and it had never occurred to him that something like this could happen at the eleventh hour.

Su Youcheng stared at Su Ziyue and said to her in a tone which was not at all pleasant, “Ziyue, you have to be clear that even though Zeyang is not going to marry Yige, he isn’t going to marry you either!”

This time, Su Ziyue understood the purpose of this meeting completely.

She was sure Su Youcheng was angry to learn that Su Yige’s engagement with Gong Zeyang had fallen through. So, Su Yige was now trying to pin the blame on her.

She was trying to manipulate Su Youcheng into thinking that Su Ziyue was the culprit behind Gong Zeyang’s decision to call off the engagement.

This way, Su Youcheng would surely take his anger out on Su Ziyue.

After analysing the entire matter, Su Ziyue only found it hilarious.

Su Yige was the sort of person who was always up to no good.
