Marry Me Quick

Chapter 216

In the end, Qin Muchen used the most straightforward way to prove that he was truly awake.

After Su Ziyue had fallen asleep, Qin Muchen carried her into the bathroom to clean up.

...

The next morning.

When Su Ziyue woke up, the man beside her had left.

She turned and sat up quickly. At this time, the door flung open.

Qin Muchen carried a tray as he walked in.

He was wearing casual clothes as he carried the tray and closed the door after him.

As he looked up, he saw Su Ziyue hugging the duvet and sitting on the bed, her eyes unusually clear and bright.

Qin Muchen’s heart fluttered as the coldness on his face broke and warmth flooded in, instantly softening his expression.

He strode toward her and put down the tray in front of her. “Breakfast.”

Su Ziyue stared at him in surprise as she asked in a dazed voice, “What time is it?”

“Half past nine.”

Qin Muchen walked to the bedside and reached out to pat her head.

Su Ziyue suddenly realized that she hadn’t put on her clothes yet. She clutched the duvet and backed away involuntarily. “Oh.”

Qin Muchen’s outstretched hand hung in mid-air. He narrowed his eyes at her dangerously.

The room fell silent.

Su Ziyue smelled the food and gulped silently. “I’m hungry.”

“Then get up and eat.”

Qin Muchen sat by the bed, unmoving like a rock.

Su Ziyue bit her lip and said, “I want to get dressed.”

She felt that he should know by now to leave the room.

“Okay.” Qin Muchen finally got up but walked toward the walk-in wardrobe instead. “I’ll grab some clothes for you.”

Su Ziyue closed her eyes in surrender and pulled the duvet over her head. Can’t he leave?

I can get the clothes myself!

Qin Muchen grabbed some casual clothes and threw them onto the bed, then left the room.

Su Ziyue heaved a sigh of relief as she got dressed, carried out her morning routine, and started eating breakfast.

Qin Muchen had lived overseas for a long time. Western cuisine was his specialty, but he wasn’t bad at Chinese either.

To someone like Su Ziyue, who couldn’t even cook rice properly yet, Qin Muchen’s cooking skills were enough for her to be in awe.

She finished all the breakfast that was brought to her.

As she carried her plates and passed by the dining room, she found Qin Muchen sitting alone at the dining table while using his phone.

He felt Su Ziyue’s presence and said to her without lifting his head, “Put the plates in the kitchen and then come out.”

As he spoke, he didn’t stop tapping on his phone.

Su Ziyue was curious about what he was doing. She quickly put the plates in the kitchen, but when she came out, he had already put his phone away.

“Come here.”

Su Ziyue hesitated for a while but approached him.

The two of them had interacted the same way as before throughout the entire morning. However, Su Ziyue felt slight happiness emanating from Qin Muchen.

All this time, he had taken care of her at home. He would cook for her and listen to her without complaining. But he still appeared displeased and had a poker face on the entire time.

Su Ziyue thought that he was displeased with whatever she did because he didn’t love her.

But now, it appeared that it was not the case.

Su Ziyue approached him obediently.

“What is…”

She had just come up to him when he reached out and pulled her to him, causing her to fall right into his arms and on his lap.

“...going on?” Su Ziyue finished her words and dared not move an inch under his sharp gaze.

Qin Muchen’s gaze was burning as he stared at her. “You haven’t yet answered my question from last night.”

“What question?” Su Ziyue asked in a hushed voice.

She felt that what happened last night was like a dream.

All those things he had said had made her wonder which of them were real.

And as for the ones that weren’t real...

Qin Muchen was not someone who would lie.

“Are you playing dumb?”

Qin Muchen narrowed his eyes at her.

Su Ziyue lowered her head guiltily and kept quiet.

He sighed and said, “Su Ziyue.”

“Yeah?” She lifted her head in confusion but was met with a forceful kiss instead.

He suddenly kissed her, and when she came to her senses, she heard him said in a low voice, “Don’t play dumb. What I said yesterday was all true, and I want you to consider it seriously.”

He emphasized the word ‘consider’ with a hint of threat in his tone.

It was as if he would make her pay if she didn’t agree to it.

She had lost all her shyness and stood up with a cold snort. Smiling slyly, she said, “President Qin, don’t worry. I’ll consider it seriously.”

She also emphasized the word ‘consider’.

Qin Muchen understood what was behind her smile, and his expression immediately darkened as he didn’t say a word.
