Marry Me Quick

Chapter 680 Within His Grasp

The woman turned to look at the man, awaiting his response. However, the man stared momentarily at the direction in which Ziyue left before silently turning around and heading into the car.

He walked slowly with a slight limp in his left leg, but it didn't diminish his vehemence.

The woman narrowed her eyes and looked at the man before striding forward to support him.

However, the man ruthlessly shoved her hand away.

"You…" The woman's face darkened, but she didn't continue.

…

Ziyue sped all the way and arrived at Cloud Bay at half past eleven.

It was a cold night. She shivered in the cold air when she stepped out of the car. She adjusted her collar and breathed into her palm before entering the villa.

Ke was waiting for her in the living room. When she saw Ziyue, she immediately stood up and said, "Welcome back, Mrs. Qin. Would you like to have some food?"

"Why are you waiting here? Where are the servants?" Ziyue glanced around the area and didn't see any servants.

Ke smiled. "It's okay. I can't fall asleep anyway."

Ziyue nodded and took off her coat. "Where's Zixi?"

"I put him to bed. I told him he'll see you when he wakes up."

Ziyue paused briefly and said, "I'll go and check in on him." With that, she went upstairs.


Halfway there, she saw Zixi standing barefoot at the stairway in his pajamas. From his messy hair and puzzled look, Ziyue could tell he had just woken up. Her heart melted when she saw his adorable appearance.

She quickened her pace and ran up to Zixi. Then, she wrapped her coat around Zixi and carried him. When she felt his cold feet, she warmed his feet with her palm and asked gently, "Why did you come out?"

Seeing his beloved mother, Zixi encircled Ziyue's neck with his arms and leaned his head against her, looking tired.

Children need some time to regain their composure after waking up. So, Ziyue stopped talking to him and directly carried him back to his bedroom.

After taking a few steps, Ziyue suddenly heard Zixi blurt softly, "Daddy."

She stopped and looked at Zixi. "What happened? Did you dream of Daddy?"

Zixi looked around and nodded in a daze.

Ziyue tightened her arms around the boy, feeling sorry for him.

After returning to Zixi's bedroom, she quickly put him back to sleep.

Ke came into the room with a bowl of noodles. "Please have some."

Although Ziyue appeared normal during this period, going to work and taking care of Zixi as usual, only Ke, who had followed Ziyue for a long time, knew she had not been eating and sleeping well.

She was worried that this would take a toll on Ziyue's health.

"Thank you." Ziyue sat down and ate the noodles.

Ke sighed inwardly. "No matter what happens, please take care of yourself."

"I will." Ziyue's hand, which was stirring the noodle, paused midair as she remained silent.

…

After over a month, the public's attention to the plane crash incident gradually decreased. However, the missing people remained unaccounted for. Neither could the authority give an explanation.

Meanwhile, the presidential election in Country J concluded after a month. Ke brought up the matter during breakfast. "Princess Aika was elected as the vice president."

Ziyue had not closely followed the presidential election, so she asked, "Who's the president?"

Ke answered a name that Ziyue was not familiar with.

"Is this a result of Gricy's intervention?" Ziyue put down her cup and asked.

"I can only say it's an unexpected result."

Ziyue understood Ke's meaning – her speculation was most likely correct.

After breakfast, Ziyue sent Zixi to his kindergarten.
