Marry Me Quick

Chapter 322

Qin Muchen was spreadeagled in the middle of the bed with his face looking slightly crimson.

He rested one of his arms casually on the bed while he bent the other and placed the back of his hand on his forehead.

“Qin Muchen?” Su Ziyue edged closer to him and called his name in a soft voice.

Was he completely wasted?

Su Ziyue had no choice but to clamber into the bed to remove his clothes, which was a laborious task.

Just as she had freed one of his arms from the sleeves of his shirt, her wrist was gripped by him tightly.

She glanced down and found he had already opened his eyes.

Obviously, he was still in a drunken state, because his dark and profound eyes looked misty and glassy.

Qin Muchen did not look aggressive at all in his current state.

Su Ziyue’s heart softened and she cajoled him while she caressed his face with her free hand. “Let go of me first so that I can remove your shirt.”

To her surprise, her free hand was clasped tightly by him too, who then called out her name in an uncertain voice, “Su Ziyue?”

Su Ziyue had always wondered why girls in movies were always portrayed as weak and feeble after getting drunk, causing them to be taken advantage of, meanwhile in reality, Qin Muchen was still so strong even though he was hammered.

Patiently, she reassured him, “Yes, it’s me. Can you let me go now?”

Qin Muchen was still fixing his gaze on her and it was unsure whether he heard her clearly or not.

Suddenly, he exerted force on his grip, causing Su Ziyue to lose her balance and fall onto him.

His warm breath which came with traces of the refreshing smell of alcohol hit her in the face. “You’re back?” he asked.

Su Ziyue could be sure he was indeed wasted from the way he was speaking, and it was the exact outcome she had wanted to achieve.

A drunken man would have a clear mind because it was uncluttered. In the state of intoxication, his brain would relax and he would forget his troubles temporarily, and he would let down all his guard and be able to voice out things he usually was reluctant to or did not dare to say.

As she could not come up with other ideas to make Qin Muchen speak, making him drunk was her last resort.

Keeping her body still while she lay prone on his body, she urged in a gentle voice, “Yes. So, you have to be nice now and let me remove your clothes. Then, you have to go to the bathroom to take a shower, or I’ll leave you alone again.”

“No way!”

Qin Muchen abruptly drew both of his arms closer in a quick and deft motion but he spoke slower than usual probably because of the effect of alcohol. Therefore, he sounded less intimidating than usual.

Su Ziyue, who found him more adorable when he was drunk, couldn’t help but stretch out her hand to pinch his cheeks.

She then cajoled him in a mellow voice, “Let’s sit up.”

“Okay…”

She pulled him up and removed his jacket with much effort. Her face couldn’t help but flush when she dealt with his suit trousers.

Then, she dragged him to the bathroom and put him into the bathtub, which was a tiresome task that made her sweat profusely.

While she was filling up the bathtub with water, she asked him, “Is the water too hot? Is this the right temperature for you?”

Leaning on the edge of the bathtub lethargically, Qin Muchen stared straight at Su Ziyue with his glassy eyes. Perhaps he was looking at her too intently, Su Ziyue had the illusion that he was staring at her affectionately. She quickly looked away and did not dare to meet his gaze.

All of a sudden, he rose to his feet in the bathtub and demanded, “Where’s my wife? Su Ziyue, where are you?” Stunned by his sudden movement, Su Ziyue first moved her eyes away from him hastily and said, “I’m here…”

“My clothes…” Splash! Following the sound, Qin Muchen collapsed back into the bathtub, splashing water in all directions that wet Su Ziyue’s clothes. She knew this wouldn’t be easy.

She grabbed the towel beside her to wipe her face dry before turning back to check on Qin Muchen, who was sitting in the bathtub and looking lost. With his hair wet, Su Ziyue couldn’t help but laugh out loud at his unusually hilarious look.

She then squeezed out some bath gel and applied it all over his body while she asked him at the same time, “Has anything unpleasant happened to you recently that you feel like sharing with me?”

Qin Muchen, who sat motionless in the bathtub, questioned, “Who are you?”

Patiently, she answered him, “I’m Su Ziyue.”

“Why are you here?” Qin Muchen cocked his head to one side confusedly as he seemed unconvinced. For some reason, Su Ziyue thought he looked adorable this way.

“Of course I have to be here, because you’re here.” Su Ziyue spread the bath gel on his body evenly then rinsed it away.

Then, she lifted the shower head to wash his hair since it was already wet.

Suddenly, Qin Muchen pushed her hand away and yelled at her, “You lied to me! You aren’t her because she doesn’t want me anymore! Who are you? Get out of here now!”

Su Ziyue, who glanced at her arm which had turned red because of him, pursed her lips and asked, “Why doesn’t she want you anymore?”

Yet, he only muttered, “She doesn’t want me anymore…”

She did not expect to get a clear answer from a drunkard.

But did he subconsciously think that she did not want him anymore?

Why would he harbor such a thought?
