Marry Me Quick

Chapter 508

After dinner, Ziyue sat in the lounge and watched television with Zixi.

But Zixi was the only one paying attention to it. She kept looking at the time.

Muchen still wasn't home by eight o'clock, when Zixi was supposed to go to bed.

Ziyue furrowed her brows slightly and couldn't help but start making silent guesses.

Was Muchen angry because of what happened and deliberately not coming home? Or was he working overtime?

But even if he was returning home late or perhaps not returning, he should call her, shouldn't he?

She always knew that Muchen was very petty, but even she would feel slightly gloomy about the current situation.

She pulled her hair anxiously and brought Zixi upstairs to put him to sleep.

Half an hour later, Zixi had fallen asleep.

She went back to the lounge alone to wait for Muchen to return after instructing the servants to rest.

At nine o'clock, the anxiety in her heart finally defeated her stubbornness. She couldn't help but take her cell phone out and call Muchen.

The call rang for a while, but no one picked up.

Ziyue picked at her nails subconsciously with every passing second. Just as the call was about to disconnect, the call was finally answered.

"Mrs. Qin?"

Ziyue was surprised to hear Chuan's voice from the other end of the phone.

"Chuan? Why did you answer the call? Where's Muchen?" Ziyue asked him, surprised.

Was Muchen really working overtime? He had been returning home early recently and didn't need to work overtime. Even if he needed to deal with unsettled work affairs, he would bring it home.


He was spending more time at home.

"The boss has a dinner party here at Lumiere Jade House... He's in a private room and left his cell phone at the office." Chuan explained to Ziyue, and his voice was cautious as if afraid Ziyue might find something out.

Ziyue noticed indistinctly that Chuan's tone was unusual, so she asked him, "Is he drinking?"

Chuan answered vaguely, "Uh... it's just a simple dinner party. There aren't many people..."

Hearing Chuan's tone, Ziyue knew that Muchen must be drinking.

"I understand." Ziyue hung up after that.

On the other end, after the call ended, Chuan looked at his boss blankly, who was sitting at one side calmly. "Mrs. Qin hung up."

Muchen waved him away. "Mm. That's all. You may leave."

Chuan wanted to say something but hesitated and looked at Muchen. He wanted to ask him something but didn't dare to.

What is the boss up to this time?

Seeing that Chuan hadn't left, Muchen said, displeased, "Aren't you leaving? She'll be coming to pick me up shortly. Leave quickly."

Muchen waved him away with disdain after that.

Chuan was slightly dumbstruck.

The boss came to Lumiere Jade House after work. He didn't do anything but sit and wait in the office.

At that time, Chuan thought it was weird, but when Muchen made him answer Ziyue's call, he faintly understood something.

On one hand, he felt that his boss was very crafty, but on the other hand, he felt that the boss' tricks weren't acceptable. Although it could be fun after an argument between couples, deception wasn't good.

Even though Muchen only wanted Ziyue to take the initiative to look for him, he was actually deceiving her.

After hearing Ziyue's tone, Chuan knew she must have been very anxious.

Chuan thought about it and said, "Boss... it's clear from Mrs. Qin's tone that she's very worried about you."

Muchen raised his eyes to look at Chuan, and his gaze was saying, 'You're telling me?'

Seeing that, Chuan could only leave.

Once Chuan had left, Muchen picked up the bottle of white wine he had prepared earlier.

That bottle of white wine had high alcohol content. Once the bottle was opened, its fragrance spread in the room.

He poured a little out and furrowed his brows as he rubbed some on himself before taking a sip. Once he was sure that there was the scent of alcohol on him, he hid the white wine in a satisfied manner.

…

On the other end, Ziyue couldn't sit still once she hung up.

Even if they argued, how could Muchen's stomach stand the alcohol?

Even though the K1LU73 virus was no longer in his body, his stomach had always caused him problems. During then, she had always taken great care of him, afraid that his stomach troubles would recur.
