Marry Me Quick

Chapter 240

Chapter 240

“Do you think that you will still have to queue up after Mr. Qin called me?” Lu Shichu raised his eyebrows.

“That’s even worse. I’m just having a minor discomfort and I’ll be fine even if I don’t go for an examination. Other people are having more serious illnesses than me, so it would be very inconsiderate to cut the queue.”

“…Alright.” Lu Shichu couldn’t find a reason to refute her.

After a brief pause, Lu Shichu asked, “Do you want to go home now or have a stroll? I have some time now. If you’re not in a rush, I’ll have lunch with you before sending you back.”

Lu Shichu was wearing a doctor’s coat and he was standing tall, which made him look indescribably handsome and elegant.

It seemed like he had always been sensible and considerate ever since he was young. Plus, he was as thoughtful as Qin Muchen.

Qin Muchen crossed her mind again.

Su Ziyue pulled her collar and tapped her toe twice. “I can go home on my own.”

Lu Shichu didn’t bother to persuade her and just put his hand on her back and pushed her forward. At the same time, he said, “I’m not busy today.”

When both of them walked out of the hospital, they went to the pharmacy across the road to buy some medicine.

After packing the medicine, Lu Shichu frowned while looking at Su Ziyue.

Then, he gently knocked on her head while softly scolding her, “You should change your bad habit of eating spicy and cold food.”

“Alright, I got it.” Su Ziyue rubbed her head.

However, Lu Shichu looked sullen. “Of course you know. But you just won’t change it!”

“I’ll change it...”

Su Ziyue smiled in an ingratiating manner, causing Lu Shichu to feel helpless. It was somewhat his instinct to care for her and spoil her.

Ever since they were children, she had always been like his little sister, and she still was now. However, it seemed like she would only ever be his little sister.

Su Ziyue didn’t rush to go home. Instead, she stayed back to have lunch with Lu Shichu.

During the meal, she received a call from Qin Muchen.

“Are you home?” Qin Muchen sounded like he was at a place that was spacious. Su Ziyue could hear the hollowness and even an echo.

“No,” Su Ziyue indolently answered while absent-mindedly swirling her drink with her other hand.

Sitting across her, Lu Shichu was deboning the fish. When he raised his head and noticed the unusual look on her face, he figured out who the caller was after pondering for a second.

He didn’t speak and just quietly placed the deboned fish into Su Ziyue’s bowl.

Su Ziyue mouthed her thanks.

The next second, Qin Muchen asked sternly on the other end of the phone, “Are you still with Lu Shichu?”

Sensing that he was subtly interrogating her, Su Ziyue suddenly tightened her grip on the glass that she was swirling.

At the same time, a flame of rage surged, causing her to be rude. “Yes. Why? We’re having lunch. If you have anything to say, please go on. Otherwise, I’ll hang up now.”

“You…” Qin Muchen suddenly stopped speaking after uttering just one word, and there was only silence after that.

Su Ziyue looked perplexed. “Hello? What’s wrong?”

However, Qin Muchen just kept quiet for a long time.

Pursing her lips, Su Ziyue felt worried. Could it be that something had happened?

Right at that moment, Qin Muchen’s voice came from the phone again. “Just go home after you finish eating. I still have matters to attend to, so let’s end the call now.” Click.

After he said that, he hung up the call without giving Su Ziyue a chance to speak.

After staring at the phone for a few seconds, Su Ziyue vented her anger by slamming the phone onto the dining table.

Lu Shichu seemed to be unaware of her outburst and just said, “Let’s eat.”

“Alright.” Feeling grateful for Lu Shichu’s consideration, Su Ziyue bowed her head and began eating.

However, once she swallowed the fish, her stomach started to misbehave and churn.

Feeling nauseous again, she gagged.

“I’m sorry… Mm…”

Su Ziyue only managed to say those words before getting up and dashing to the washroom.

Bending over the basin and retching for some time, she still couldn’t vomit anything out.

After calming down while supporting herself with the basin, she finally felt better.

She would never allow herself to eat so many ice-creams again in the future even if she was beaten to death.

When she left the washroom and returned to her table, she met Lu Shichu’s concerned gaze.

Su Ziyue smiled at him. “I’m fine…”

Lu Shichu had put down his chopsticks and he looked stern yet concerned. “You have to come with me now to have an examination.”

“It’s alright.” Su Ziyue shook her head. “The steamed fish was too fishy.”

While saying, she reached for the other dishes and felt fine even after she ate them.

Seeing that she was enjoying the other dishes, Lu Shichu finally looked relieved.

Since she refused to go for an examination, he wouldn’t force her to.
