Marry Me Quick

Chapter 644

chapter 644 Aren’t You Going to Reward Me?

"What are you looking at, Mrs. Qin?"

Ke sat across from Ziyue, seeing her constantly looking in that direction, and followed her gaze, but Ke didn't see anything extraordinary.

Ke missed the sight of Hanyan and her group as they had just walked past.

Ziyue withdrew her gaze and smiled, "Nothing special."

Just then, her phone rang.

It was Muchen.

"Have you eaten?" Muchen asked. There was no noise in the background. Ziyue deduced he was probably in a deserted place.

"Ke and I are in the restaurant and about to order food." Ziyue paused and asked him, "What about you?"

"Not yet." He replied, adding, "I still have some work to finish before I can eat."

"When will you come back to the office?"

Muchen said briefly, "I'll pick you up after work."

For some reason, Ziyue felt that Muchen sounded a little unusual as if bearing a profound loss and suppressed emotions.

Ziyue frowned. "Eat first," Muchen said before she could ask what was wrong and hung up.

Ziyue was caught off guard. Earlier, she detected forlorn in Muchen's voice. She was certain that something was amiss with Muchen after he abruptly hung up.

"What did the boss say?" Ke, who had been listening to her conversation, naturally knew that Muchen had called. Seeing Ziyue's strange expression, she pried.

"They haven't finished their work yet." With a heavy heart, Ziyue said. She texted Muchen to remind him to have lunch.

He shouldn't starve himself as he had gastric problems.

Muchen had been working like a Trojan lately.

As agreed, Muchen came to pick up Ziyue after work in the evening. As soon as Ziyue got in the car, she asked, "What time did you have lunch today?"

Muchen was startled. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Twelve-thirty."

Ziyue looked at him and thought he could be lying.

He was not a compliant person by nature.

Before she could say anything, Muchen added, "I want to have fish and chips for dinner tonight."

"Sure, I'll make extra dishes to replenish your body. You've been so busy lately," Ziyue said.

She had gotten used to cooking for Muchen. They couldn't have lunch together, but she would make dinner for him after work.

Ziyue was delighted at Muchen's dinner request. Then, they went to the market together.

It was an impromptu suggestion by Muchen.

They hadn't gone shopping for groceries together since they arrived in Country J. Ziyue wondered why Muchen suddenly had so much free time.

While preparing dinner at home, Ziyue asked, "Why do you have so much free time today? Did you manage to finish all the work you needed to do?"

Muchen was cutting vegetables. Though Ziyue offered to make dinner but in actuality, Muchen was the chef for tonight. Hearing Ziyue's words, he turned and looked at her, "Next week is the presidential election rally, and I'll soon be done with my work. Then, I'll have a few days off to be with you."

Ziyue lit up, "Really?"

"Have I ever lied to you?" Muchen looked tender when he smiled.

For a moment, Ziyue was smitten by his charming smile. She quickly averted her gaze and stirred the soup.

"You should just chill and rest at home since you are allowed a short break." She knew how busy he had been and didn't want him to feel obligated to spend his time off with her.

She only wished for him to be safe and healthy. Muchen turned to her, and a tender emotion sparkled in his eyes. He saw through her thoughts and said softly, "I'm not tired." Then, his tone suddenly turned somewhat melancholy, "I'll be fine as long as you're by my side."

Ziyue turned and looked at him, "What did you say?"

Muchen spoke too softly, and she could barely hear what he said.

"Okay, out you go. Dinner will be ready soon," he digressed while gently pushing her out of the kitchen.

Muchen didn't go to the office the next day since he was on a break.

As the wife and assistant of LK's president, Ziyue naturally didn't need to go to the office either.

Early in the morning, Muchen found a travel magazine and gave it to Ziyue, "Take a look and see where you want to go. We can go together."
