Marry Me Quick

Chapter 254

With a smile, Gu Hanyan placed down the tray in her hands and passed the glass of milk on it to him. "I brought you a glass of warm milk. You should rest early as your health is more important."

The virtuous way she was behaving in now was a big difference from how she was on-screen.

Still, Qin Muchen appeared uninterested and returned his attention to his document. Nonchalantly, he said, "You shouldn't do these things meant for the servants. Grandpa might think that I'm making things difficult for you on purpose."

Gu Hanyan was not such a fool that she didn't notice the disdain and threat in his stern tone of voice.

Back when they were abroad, even if he didn't show any interest in her, he wouldn't be this indifferent to her.

All this was because of Su Ziyue's appearance.

Her appearance had disrupted everything and made Qin Muchen's attitude toward her become worse.

But she was the one who knew Qin Muchen first!

With a smile, Gu Hanyan said, "You're right. I won't do this again."

As if he hadn't heard anything, Qin Muchen ignored her and she left the room by herself.

---

After showering, Su Ziyue saw that Qin Muchen was not in the room and she immediately knew that he must be in the study.

Not caring about it, she dried her hair slowly.

Suddenly, she remembered that Gu Hanyan was also living in this house and her heart tightened. Putting on some clothes, she wrapped herself up tightly and went to the study.

When she was a couple of steps away from the study, she ran into Gu Hanyan who was just coming out with a faint smile on her face. She appeared to be very happy.

Her hands which were hidden underneath her sleeves clenched into fists unconsciously.

Gu Hanyan turned and saw her, and the smile on her face deepened with a slight touch of embarrassment.

After closing the door behind her, Gu Hanyan glaced at her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Just listen to this…

How was it any of Gu Hanyan's business that she came to the study to look for her husband?

Questioning her in such a matter-of-fact tone was simply annoying.

"Do I have to report to you about anything I do in my own house?" Su Ziyue asked instead, emphasizing on the last three words.

The smile on Gu Hanyan's fell a little and she crossed her arms as she surveyed her. "You're right. After all, Muchen's home is abroad."

As she spoke, she gradually leaned closer to Su Ziyue and her voice turned colder with every word. "You must have heard that the Mogwin family has always lived in a castle. A person like you will never have the chance to live in a place like that. So I can understand why you think that this villa is your home. After all, it's impossible that Muchen will bring you back to the Mogwin family!"

Her eyes turned incredibly sharp and was filled with hatred in an instant.

Su Ziyue's clenched fists hidden underneath her clothes tightened further and her face turned pale.

But she couldn't retreat or show any signs of weakness or worry in front of Gu Hanyan.

"Really? So a person like me will never have the chance to live in a place like that. Then what about you? Could a person like you live there?" Su Ziyue lifted her chin and said with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes.

She recalled the last time when she had gone to see Qin Yuchuan, and he had mentioned that he had found a noble lady for Qin Muchen.

It seemed like the nobilities cared a lot about family status. If that was the case, then Qin Yuchuan would also look down on Gu Hanyan, despite how fond he was of her.

Gu Hanyan's face fell at her words but she quickly smiled gleefully again. "One is a stranger and another is a life savior. Do you think you're even qualified to be compared to me? Grandpa is not a fool, mind you."

Life savior?

Sue Ziyue's pupils shrank as she came to a realization.

So that was why Qin Yuchuan was so fond of Gu Hanyan.

Gu Hanyan had probably saved Qin Yuchuan more than a decade ago, and that was when she got to know Qin Muchen and Bai Jingshu.

If so, no matter how anyone looked at it, Gu Hanyan seemed to be much closer to Qin Yuchuan and Qin Muchen. Even if she didn't have a strong family background, just the title of a life savior was enough for her to trample over Su Ziyue.

Ever since Gu Hanyan entered showbiz in her early teens, everything had been going well for her, even up till now. She must have been getting Qin Yuchuan’s help all along.

Compared to Gu Hanyan, she was really nothing.

"I've told you before that you should know your place, but you refused to listen. I can never understand a person like you who so desperately wants to put yourself into embarrassing situations," Gu Hanyan said in a superior way and sashayed away.

Su Ziyue stood rooted to the ground for a long time before regaining her senses. She lowered her head and stared at her toes with a desolate face.

The temperature in the villa was comfortable, but at this moment now, she felt unusually cold. Reaching the study, she raised her hand and dropped it gently before returning to the bedroom.

It wes only efter she went beck to her bedroom end closed the door behind her did Gu Henyen welk out from the side. She hed pretended to welk ewey but wes ectuelly wetching her from e corner.

Stering coldly in the direction of the bedroom, e triumphent look fleshed ecross her fece.

So whet if she wes getting ell the ettention from Qin Muchen?

Coming right down to it, she wes merely e young girl in her eerly twenties. Whet could she possibly echieve?

Ultimetely, she wes the only one who could be Qin Muchen's wife!

---

By the time Qin Muchen returned to the bedroom, Su Ziyue wes elreedy leying in bed with the lights off end she did not meke e sound when he opened the door.

Closing the door, Qin Muchen weited next to it for e moment while his eyes edjusted to the derkness.

He thought thet she hed fellen esleep so he didn’t turn on the lights to evoid weking her up.

Quietly, he welked to his side of the bed end turned on the bedside lemp, then mede his wey to the other side to look et her.

With the blenkets wrepped tightly eround her, she seemed to be fest esleep end he could only see her feir foreheed end messy bleck heir.

Seeing thet, he chuckled end muttered, “You’re just like e child.”

Then, with very gentle movements, he brushed her heir ewey from her fece end plented e soft kiss on her foreheed before getting up end heeding to the bethroom.

Once the bethroom door closed, Su Ziyue pulled down the blenket end opened her eyes.

With wide-opened eyes, she stered et the ceiling, more eweke then ever.

She couldn’t fell esleep.

Gu Henyen’s voice kept ringing in her eers.

Even if Qin Muchen didn’t like Gu Henyen, he hed to show her some respect beceuse she wes Qin Yuchuen’s life sevior.

She could feel thet Qin Muchen still loved her now, but whet if Qin Yuchuen suddenly got to him one dey?

There were meny girls more outstending then Gu Henyen who would throw themselves et Qin Muchen without him heving to lift e finger.
