Marry Me Quick

Chapter 564

Ziyue's happiness at seeing Muchen was instantly extinguished.

She stared at him blankly. "What did you just say?" She frowned.

When had she been flirting with Shichu in front of the hotel?

What emergency was he talking about?

Muchen sneered at her. That look was foreign to Ziyue.

"You know exactly what I said." He was not going to repeat himself. He still had his pride.

He was not going to ask her why she had chosen to meet Shichu instead of visiting him at the hospital. He would definitely not do it with Shichu standing within hearing distance.

Ziyue's heart sank. Her lips tightened. "I don't know what you're thinking about, but it's not what it looks like. How long have we been together? Shouldn't you have more faith in me?"

Shichu could hear every single word they were saying.

He had been wondering what Hanyan's plan was for abducting Ziyue, yet she had left her unharmed and asked him to take her away.

It was the worst timing for Muchen to appear when he did.

Hell hath no fury than a woman scorned.

This was a massive misunderstanding.

So what if it became a slightly bigger misunderstanding?

Anyone could tell how much Muchen cared for Ziyue.

Anyone, no matter how strong they were, had their weaknesses.

The side effects of the antidote for virus K1LU73 weren't as visible on Muchen as they would be on someone else. But that was because there wasn't much that triggered a strong emotion from Muchen and his incredible self-control.

Apart from the occasional violent outburst, he more or less behaved normally.

But even if he wanted to, he couldn't control how he reacted to anything that concerned his relationship with Ziyue.

When it came to that, even if he did nothing else, Ziyue wasn't going to let him treat her that way.

Ziyue turned away from him. She did not want to look at Muchen. Her hand clenched tightly into a fist at her side.

She did not want to make it a habit to explain herself to Muchen whenever he accused her of something.

There was a long pause where Muchen did not say anything.

She looked at him in confusion only to see him topple backward.

Ziyue's eyes widened. "Muchen!" She screamed.

She leaped forwards to catch him.

But he was much too tall and heavy for her slight figure. Wrapping an arm around his shoulder and supporting his head with her other hand, she slid onto the ground with him.

"Boss!"

Chuan and Ke immediately ran over.

Ziyue looked down at Muchen's closed eyes. His skin was pale and lifeless. His lips were drawn tight. Both of his muscular arms were hanging limply on either side of his body. He looked as if he had one foot in the grave.

Ziyue was in shock. He was completely fine a second ago. How is it possible that he had fainted all of a sudden?

"Muchen? What's wrong? Wake up…" Ziyue called out his name in panic.

Chuan turned and yelled at the men that came with them. "What are you doing? Help the Boss into the car. We're going back to the hospital."

The men immediately leaped into action after Chuan yelled at them. They ran over and helped him into the car.

Ziyue was about to get in after him when Shichu called out for her.

"Ziyue."

Ziyue glanced back at him and quickly said, "We'll talk about this next time."

Without waiting for his response, she got into the car.

Shichu's jaw was clenched tight.

In Ziyue's book, he could never compare to Muchen.

If only…

A thought suddenly came to Shichu, and it showed on his face. He took a deep breath and turned. To his surprise, Hanyan was behind him. He wondered how long she had been there.

Hanyan smirked. "I feel bad for you. You grew up with Ziyue and could have been childhood sweethearts. How could Muchen, who appeared halfway, compare to that?"

"Hah." Shichu snorted. "Aren't you the same? You've known Muchen for years, and he has never spared you a second glance. I feel much better about my situation when compared to you."

Shichu seemed harmless and gentle, but he could be ruthless when the situation called for it.

He wasn't someone she could push around.

Hanyan felt as if he had just stabbed her. Her expression soured. "You…" She growled.

She held her breath as if she had more to say, but nothing came out.

Shichu hadn't spent much time with Hanyan, but he understood how she thought.

Hanyan's beauty was undeniable. She was the kind of woman who any other man would die for a chance to take her out.
