Marry Me Quick

Chapter 717 Is He Still Hiding Something from Me?

Muchen looked down coldly at Ziyue.

He hadn't said anything yet, but Ziyue could see a trace of warmth in his eyes.

Muchen only looked at Ziyue so gently. He didn't look at anyone else like that. Only her.

Her voice couldn't help but soften. She said, "If you don't know how to talk about it, why don't I ask you questions? You can answer me."

Muchen was slightly distracted as he realized his wife had unknowingly become smarter.

He really couldn't hide it from her this time.

He didn't shake his head or nod. Ziyue understood him well. By staying, it meant that he agreed.

"Your grandmother didn't pass away from lung cancer, did she?" Ziyue was trying her best to make her voice sound calm. But when she spoke, her voice still trembled slightly.

Muchen nodded slightly in response. He restrained the sharpness in his handsome appearance. Instead, he looked meek and well-behaved, like a child.

He answered indifferently, "No."

"So she really… Like what Xiyi had initially guessed, she jumped off a building and died because her mental illness flared up?" It was difficult for her to say the last few words.

With Ziyue asking questions, it felt easier for Muchen to talk about it.

"Yes. I inherited her illness and don't know when mine will flare up. For a time, I didn't believe I would inherit her illness. Very few people in the past few generations of the Mogwin family inherited the illness."

But this showed that the more he didn't believe in it, the more likely it was to happen.

After understanding this, Ziyue understood why Xiyi had left so hurriedly.

"So why did you make Xiyi leave? He can cure you!"

"He can't." Muchen was slightly depressed. "I've investigated the Mogwin family's medical history. None of them died of old age. They couldn't do anything but die at a young age."

"So you've decided to die by transferring all your properties to me?" Ziyue's voice turned cold. "You don't plan on getting cured, so you didn't come back and look for me after your airplane accident, even when you were fine!"

"I shouldn't have come back, but when Chuan was dealing with the follow-up matters in LK headquarters in Country J, someone noticed something strange and found out that I transferred all assets to you, so they followed me to Yunzhou City. I had no choice but to come back."

Ziyue bit her lips and tears flickered in her eyes.

Muchen continued. "I used to think I must have incredible self-control as a man, but I couldn't control myself. I looked for you, saw you and all my self-control crumbled."

Ziyue felt angry and distressed.

Muchen was always like that. He would always make decisions for her. Every time she wanted to hate and loathe him, she couldn't help but feel distressed.

Her heart ached for him, but staying calm was hard for her.

She couldn't help but say sharply, "You shouldn't have returned. Yunan has expressed interest in me and has a distinguished family background. Although it would be my second marriage, I have many properties thanks to your generosity. No one will look down on me if I marry into the Bai family. What about you? You went missing, gave me everything you spent more than half your life working for, and can't return to the Mogwin family. If you die, no one will know…"

As she spoke, she started to get choked up.

Muchen had an ashen expression.

"Even if I didn't return, I wouldn't have let you marry other men. I would have killed him before you married him."

His voice sounded sinister and terrifying.

But Ziyue wasn't fearful at all. "That's what you think. How would you kill Yunan without power or influence?"

He said in a low voice, "You can try."

Even though Ziyue was feeling slightly emotional, she knew she couldn't agitate him further.

Otherwise, he might really kill Yunan.

It was possible for him to kill Yunan even without power or influence.

"I don't like Yunan. I only like you. He said such things in Lumiere Jade House earlier because he was trying to find out about Gricy. Don't take it seriously."

From previous experience, she knew that when faced with the current Muchen, she had to accommodate him.

What she said at first pleased Muchen.

But he didn't agree with her last few words.

He was a man, so he naturally knew what Yunan said wasn't entirely false. Half of it was true.

However, since Ziyue didn't feel that Yunan had feelings for her, Muchen wouldn't tell her.

When faced with Ziyue's honesty, Muchen desired to tell her everything on his mind.

"After I returned, I decided to pretend to be normal. Since you love Zixi, you would be happy and love me more if I treated Zixi well, but Enxue appeared and wanted to see Shichu. Shichu's legs were injured because he saved me, and he might be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. You would get upset and feel distressed if you saw him. He's important to you…"

He hesitated at the crucial moment because he knew Shichu was important to Ziyue even if Zixi's life was in danger.

Ziyue knew what he was thinking about, even if he didn't say it out loud.
