Marry Me Quick

Chapter 535

She had come to Country J in a hurry.

At the time, she was just hoping for Muchen's quick release. She didn't have time to contact anyone.

Even Xia. Ziyue only contacted her after arriving in Country J.

She had almost forgotten about Shichu.

When Ziyue thought about it, she blamed herself.

Ziyue answered the call as she walked in, and her voice was slightly guilty. "Mr. Lu."

She didn't know what Shichu was thinking about. He was silent momentarily before asking, "Where did you go?"

His voice was light yet low. Ziyue couldn't hear any emotion in it.

Ziyue answered truthfully. "Country J."

She hadn't been in frequent contact with Shichu recently. She was curious. How does Shichu know I'm not in Yunzhou City?

But she didn't voice the question in her heart.

"Why are you in Country J?"

She could feel Shichu's voice growing colder. There was a questioning tone to it.

Shichu was clearly angry.

Ziyue didn't know why Shichu was enraged.

She explained patiently, "We have something to do here."

Shichu's volume suddenly increased, and there was a rage in his voice. "Aren't you planning on telling me the truth?"

On the other end of the phone, Shichu sat in his office. His gaze fell on the computer screen, which showed a news headline. It was a photo of Muchen and Ziyue.

They were attending an event while dressed to the nines in the photo. From the background, Shichu could tell that they were at a banquet. There was even an explanation below.

It was obviously from yesterday's dinner banquet. Photos of Ziyue and Muchen had leaked, and it made the headlines.

Ziyue happened to return to her room at the time. A servant greeted her at the side, but she didn't pay attention. She made her way straight into the room instead and shut the door.

Ziyue sat on the couch. Her fingers subconsciously fiddled with the flowers on the coffee table before her. She asked calmly, "What do you know?"

Shichu wouldn't inexplicably say such things to her, and his anger wasn't for no reason.

"You and Muchen returned to the Mogwin family." Although it seemed like a question, it sounded like a statement.

Before Ziyue could say anything, Shichu continued. "Do you know what kind of family the Mogwins are? It's an abyss, a boundless black hole. They're different from the Su family's petty squabbles. You might even find yourself dead if you don't watch your back!"

Shichu's tone was very harsh.

Ziyue's heart sank slightly.

She hadn't considered that since coming to the Mogwin family.

She only saw Yuchuan picking on Muchen but forgot there were other people in the Mogwin family.

Some of them were out in the open, while some were hiding. None of them were up to any good.

"I know it very well. I'm going to end the call if there's nothing else." Ziyue felt slightly frantic and didn't want to speak to Shichu any longer. She ended the call before he could say anything.

Ziyue placed her cell phone on the coffee table and fell back. She was feeling a little distraught.

She thought about how Muchen had said he would send her back to Yunzhou City. He hadn't continued the conversation after that and talked about children instead.

When she thought about it again, she started to understand Muchen's intentions.

Muchen knew full well that it would be hard for him to break free once he returned to the Mogwin family.

That was why he wanted to send Ziyue back to Yunzhou City. It would be even better if she were pregnant when she returned to Yunzhou City. That way, she could stay there safely.

He was worried about her safety, so he schemed and made plans for her.

She could understand his concern.

But she couldn't do it.

At the very most, she had known Muchen for three years.

But the time they actually spent together was brief.

The two had separated for two years because of misjudgment and lack of understanding.

But now, she felt that they both understood each other well enough. Did they have to be apart again because of the Mogwin family?

Did they have to give up their life together because it might be dangerous?

It was only a possibility. Muchen and Ziyue would lose the time and opportunity to be together instead.

It wasn't very worthwhile.

Ziyue came to a decision in a flash.

Muchen was admittedly worried about her safety. She was also concerned about Muchen. She didn't want to be separated by seas and oceans from Muchen and be clueless about what was happening to him. Moreover, if she returned, no one knew when the two would meet again.

At this point, there was no way she could return to Yunzhou City alone.

It was just that… she felt sorry for Zixi.

But he should be safe by Jingshu's side.

Ziyue made up her mind and went through everything in her head.
