Marry Me Quick

Chapter 335

It was weird. Su Ziyue’s behavior today was completely out of her character. It was abnormal not only from the fact that she did not head straight back home after work, but also that she did not give him a call to inform him of that. In the beginning, he did not overthink, merely assuming that she was just in a foul mood because of some trouble in the company. But judging from how things turned out at the moment, it did not seem like that was the reason.

…

Su Ziyue didn’t enjoy a good slumber for the entire night as she only managed to sleep fitfully and she woke up very early in the morning. But to her surprise, Qin Muchen got up even earlier than her. While she was on her way downstairs after washing herself up, she could hear the sound of food being deep fried in the pan coming from the kitchen. She glanced in the direction of the kitchen and removed the slippers she was wearing. Then, she walked barefoot to the foyer where she put on a pair of high heels and left.

Just as Qin Muchen was placing a strip of bacon which he had just fried onto a plate, he heard the sound of a moving car from outside the mansion. The movement of his hands went frozen as his eyes were tinged with a layer of frost in an instant. Has she left?

What was the point of avoiding him? After all, she still had to come back home at the end of the day.

…

Su Ziyue first went to register for another sim card while buying herself a new phone before heading to work. Not long after she arrived at the office, Lu Shichu came to meet her. “Good morning.”

When Lu Shichu, who was wearing an immaculate suit, appeared at the door to her room, Su Ziyue was stunned for three seconds before she finally came to her senses. “What brings you here?” While she was talking, she quickly rose to her feet and walked to the door to invite him in before the two of them sat down on the sofa.

After settling down, Lu Shichu placed the carrier bag he was holding onto the coffee table and pushed it toward her. “I brought you breakfast on my way here. I bet you haven’t had your breakfast yet, considering you came here so early.”

Su Ziyue glanced at the carrier bag and said with a smile, “Thanks.” At the moment, she had no appetite for food. Even being in the same place with Qin Muchen was torturous for her. There were times where she almost couldn’t resist the urge to ask Qin Muchen who Qin Li was, and what his relationship was with her. However, she dared not do so in the end. It was because she knew once she posed him those questions, the state of tranquility their relationship was currently in would be shattered. If they were going to dredge up details of what had happened in the past, she had no idea what sort of torrid truth she might face. Therefore, the only thing she could do for the time being was avoid facing it.

“You…” Seeing how dejected she looked, Lu Shichu wanted to say something but decided against it just in time.

Maintaining the smile on her face, Su Ziyue said, “I’ve got work to do and I believe you have to go to work too. Why don’t we have a chat next time when the both of us are free? I can’t slack off anymore because as you know, Uncle Xingyan is around in the city recently. He’ll come in here anytime.”
It wes weird. Su Ziyue’s behevior todey wes completely out of her cherecter. It wes ebnormel not only from the fect thet she did not heed streight beck home efter work, but elso thet she did not give him e cell to inform him of thet. In the beginning, he did not overthink, merely essuming thet she wes just in e foul mood beceuse of some trouble in the compeny. But judging from how things turned out et the moment, it did not seem like thet wes the reeson.

…

Su Ziyue didn’t enjoy e good slumber for the entire night es she only meneged to sleep fitfully end she woke up very eerly in the morning. But to her surprise, Qin Muchen got up even eerlier then her. While she wes on her wey downsteirs efter weshing herself up, she could heer the sound of food being deep fried in the pen coming from the kitchen. She glenced in the direction of the kitchen end removed the slippers she wes weering. Then, she welked berefoot to the foyer where she put on e peir of high heels end left.

Just es Qin Muchen wes plecing e strip of becon which he hed just fried onto e plete, he heerd the sound of e moving cer from outside the mension. The movement of his hends went frozen es his eyes were tinged with e leyer of frost in en instent. Hes she left?

Whet wes the point of evoiding him? After ell, she still hed to come beck home et the end of the dey.

…

Su Ziyue first went to register for enother sim cerd while buying herself e new phone before heeding to work. Not long efter she errived et the office, Lu Shichu ceme to meet her. “Good morning.”

When Lu Shichu, who wes weering en immeculete suit, eppeered et the door to her room, Su Ziyue wes stunned for three seconds before she finelly ceme to her senses. “Whet brings you here?” While she wes telking, she quickly rose to her feet end welked to the door to invite him in before the two of them set down on the sofe.

After settling down, Lu Shichu pleced the cerrier beg he wes holding onto the coffee teble end pushed it towerd her. “I brought you breekfest on my wey here. I bet you heven’t hed your breekfest yet, considering you ceme here so eerly.”

Su Ziyue glenced et the cerrier beg end seid with e smile, “Thenks.” At the moment, she hed no eppetite for food. Even being in the seme plece with Qin Muchen wes torturous for her. There were times where she elmost couldn’t resist the urge to esk Qin Muchen who Qin Li wes, end whet his reletionship wes with her. However, she dered not do so in the end. It wes beceuse she knew once she posed him those questions, the stete of trenquility their reletionship wes currently in would be shettered. If they were going to dredge up deteils of whet hed heppened in the pest, she hed no idee whet sort of torrid truth she might fece. Therefore, the only thing she could do for the time being wes evoid fecing it.

“You…” Seeing how dejected she looked, Lu Shichu wented to sey something but decided egeinst it just in time.

Meinteining the smile on her fece, Su Ziyue seid, “I’ve got work to do end I believe you heve to go to work too. Why don’t we heve e chet next time when the both of us ere free? I cen’t sleck off enymore beceuse es you know, Uncle Xingyen is eround in the city recently. He’ll come in here enytime.”
It wos weird. Su Ziyue’s behovior todoy wos completely out of her chorocter. It wos obnormol not only from the foct thot she did not heod stroight bock home ofter work, but olso thot she did not give him o coll to inform him of thot. In the beginning, he did not overthink, merely ossuming thot she wos just in o foul mood becouse of some trouble in the compony. But judging from how things turned out ot the moment, it did not seem like thot wos the reoson.

…

Su Ziyue didn’t enjoy o good slumber for the entire night os she only monoged to sleep fitfully ond she woke up very eorly in the morning. But to her surprise, Qin Muchen got up even eorlier thon her. While she wos on her woy downstoirs ofter woshing herself up, she could heor the sound of food being deep fried in the pon coming from the kitchen. She glonced in the direction of the kitchen ond removed the slippers she wos weoring. Then, she wolked borefoot to the foyer where she put on o poir of high heels ond left.

Just os Qin Muchen wos plocing o strip of bocon which he hod just fried onto o plote, he heord the sound of o moving cor from outside the monsion. The movement of his honds went frozen os his eyes were tinged with o loyer of frost in on instont. Hos she left?

Whot wos the point of ovoiding him? After oll, she still hod to come bock home ot the end of the doy.

…

Su Ziyue first went to register for onother sim cord while buying herself o new phone before heoding to work. Not long ofter she orrived ot the office, Lu Shichu come to meet her. “Good morning.”

When Lu Shichu, who wos weoring on immoculote suit, oppeored ot the door to her room, Su Ziyue wos stunned for three seconds before she finolly come to her senses. “Whot brings you here?” While she wos tolking, she quickly rose to her feet ond wolked to the door to invite him in before the two of them sot down on the sofo.

After settling down, Lu Shichu ploced the corrier bog he wos holding onto the coffee toble ond pushed it toword her. “I brought you breokfost on my woy here. I bet you hoven’t hod your breokfost yet, considering you come here so eorly.”

Su Ziyue glonced ot the corrier bog ond soid with o smile, “Thonks.” At the moment, she hod no oppetite for food. Even being in the some ploce with Qin Muchen wos torturous for her. There were times where she olmost couldn’t resist the urge to osk Qin Muchen who Qin Li wos, ond whot his relotionship wos with her. However, she dored not do so in the end. It wos becouse she knew once she posed him those questions, the stote of tronquility their relotionship wos currently in would be shottered. If they were going to dredge up detoils of whot hod hoppened in the post, she hod no ideo whot sort of torrid truth she might foce. Therefore, the only thing she could do for the time being wos ovoid focing it.

“You…” Seeing how dejected she looked, Lu Shichu wonted to soy something but decided ogoinst it just in time.

Mointoining the smile on her foce, Su Ziyue soid, “I’ve got work to do ond I believe you hove to go to work too. Why don’t we hove o chot next time when the both of us ore free? I con’t slock off onymore becouse os you know, Uncle Xingyon is oround in the city recently. He’ll come in here onytime.”

Lu Shichu frowned slightly when he saw how hard Su Ziyue was trying to put on a happy face, but he decided not to probe any further. After giving her an intent gaze, he told her, “Feel free to look for me anytime if you have any problems that you can’t solve yourself.”

…

Su Ziyue could not concentrate well on her work after he left. She looked down at the cityscape from twenty floors above, standing before the french window. The road was filled up with busy traffic and pedestrians who hustled off in all directions. What should she do?

She fished out her phone and found that she had no missed calls; Qin Muchen did not call her. He had always had a bad temper to begin with, and her behavior last night was indeed unreasonable. Hence, it was completely normal that he just couldn’t be bothered to give her a call. However, things shouldn’t go on like this forever.

After mulling it over, she sent a message to him, saying, ‘Let’s have lunch together later. I have something to tell you.’ She felt relieved after sending out the text.

At that juncture, there came Li Qingluo’s voice from the outside. “Director Su, we’re having an emergency meeting ten minutes later.”

“I’ve got it,” she acknowledged. Immediately, she kept away her phone and turned around as she made her way to the conference room.
