Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146

Su Ziyue didn’t look at the supper he had placed in front of her. She gazed at Gong Zeyang as she said, “Why are you waiting for me?”

Gong Zeyang muttered, “I want to have dinner with you.”

After seeing Su Ziyue, he realized that the times they had met were few and far between. In the past, he hadn’t thought much about it, but now he felt unhappy about it.

As to what he was unhappy about, he knew the answer in his heart, but he wasn’t willing to admit it.

Su Ziyue glanced at him and said, “Sorry, I may not have the time. Someone is waiting at home to have dinner with me.”

Suddenly, she remembered that before she left home in the morning, Qin Muchen had told her to return home early.

Oh no!

Not only had she not returned home early, but she had worked overtime until it was so late and she hadn’t even called home.

As she thought about it, she quickly fished out her phone and saw that there were surprisingly no missed calls.

Confusion flashed across her mind. Usually, Qin Muchen would’ve called her even if she was just a little late. However, he hadn’t called even once on this day although it was already so late.

Su Ziyue couldn’t be bothered that Gong Zeyang was still there. She quickly found Qin Muchen’s contact number from her contact list and called him.

Before the line could connect, Gong Zeyang reached out and grabbed her phone. His voice was cold as he said, “It’s just dinner, so what is it that is making you so unwilling to have it with me?”

From his perspective, his relationship with Su Ziyue was quite close, so there was nothing wrong for them to have dinner together, but she had called Qin Muchen immediately.

That man is unworthy of her!

Su Ziyue was stunned at her phone being grabbed by Gong Zeyang. She stood up quickly and shouted, “Give it back to me!”

Gong Zeyang raised his eyebrows as he stared at her flustered expression. Suddenly, his lips curved upward. This is the real Su Ziyue!

He had disliked how she always acted distant toward him.

Gong Zeyang smiled and coaxed her by saying, “Now, now. Don’t be angry. Let’s have dinner together, and I’ll return you your phone after that.”

“Give! Me! Back! My! Phone!” Su Ziyue shouted each word furiously, her eyes filled with hatred toward him.

She was truly angry right now.

Why is everyone around me so self-righteous?

Gong Zeyang was taller and stronger than her. She couldn’t do anything as he easily held the phone above her head.

At this moment, Su Ziyue’s phone suddenly rang.

Gong Zeyang lifted his eyes toward the phone screen. The word ‘Hubby’ flashed on it. That word was extremely jarring to his eyes.

Su Ziyue had also noticed that it was Qin Muchen who had called and she felt even more frustrated. She said coldly, “Gong Zeyang, give me back my phone. I don’t want to eat with you nor see you. I don’t want to have anything to do with you!”

Upon hearing this, Gong Zeyang’s expression froze immediately, then it changed to one of shock.

Su Ziyue took the chance to grab her phone. However, Gong Zeyang was prepared for it and retreated a step before declining the call.

Outside Su Group, Qin Muchen stopped the car slowly and turned to look at Beef sitting in the passenger seat. It was falling asleep due to being carsick.

Seeing that Beef was not feeling well, Qin Muchen frowned slightly and reached out a hand to stroke its head. “You’re carsick? How useless.”

Beef whined in anguish and stared at Qin Muchen before it sprawled over on the passenger seat and stopped moving.

It was clear that Beef was extremely carsick.

Although he wasn’t happy that Beef had taken away some of Su Ziyue’s attention from him, he was the one who brought it home after all. Even though he had made a mistake by having chosen a male dog, it was still family.

Hence, Qin Muchen didn’t really hate it.

“I’ll call her then. Just hang on for a while.” Qin Muchen suppressed his temper and comforted Beef with those words.

Beef put out its tongue and licked Qin Muchen. The adorable way it depended on Qin Muchen softened his heart. He patted its head while dialing Su Ziyue’s number.

However, it rang for a while before the other end hung up on him.

Qin Muchen stared at his phone screen for a few moments as his expression darkened.

Beef seemed to have felt the change in Qin Muchen’s mood and snuggled its head into his palm.

Qin Muchen retracted his hand and looked at Beef. After a while, he said, “Your mom is a spoilt woman. I’m going up to find her. You stay in the car, okay?”

Then, he unbuckled his seat belt and got down from the car.

Seeing that Gong Zeyang had hung up the call, Su Ziyue retracted her hand and stared at him frostily. “Gong Zeyang, if you still want your dignity, then give me back my phone! Don’t you know that your obsessive face is really ugly?” she shouted.

Gong Zeyang’s expression froze as he repeated her words, “I’m obsessive?”

“If you want to prove that you’re not obsessive, then give me back the phone. After that, leave! Otherwise, in my eyes, you’re just being obsessive. What’s more, it’s ridiculous to me!”

Su Ziyue didn’t know why Gong Zeyang kept insisting on having dinner with her. Has he gone crazy? His self-righteous look is making me lose my appetite!

However, she didn’t know whether this tactic would work.

Right now, she was most worried about Qin Muchen. He had a bad temper and would be angry if he thought that she was the one who hung up on him.

Gong Zeyang laughed coldly and said, “If we’re talking about being obsessive, you should be the master of that.”

Su Ziyue glared at him. “What nonsense are you saying?”

“Do you think that I didn’t know that you used to like me in the past?” Gong Zeyang moved closer to her as he spoke.

Su Ziyue felt that Gong Zeyang was acting rather strangely. She stepped backward subconsciously as she replied, “Since you know that it was already in the past, why are you talking about it now?”

Realizing that her tone was not as cold as before, Gong Zeyang thought that it was because of what he had said. A smile appeared on his face as he said, “I know that you’ve always liked me. That Qin Muchen is unworthy of you. If not for…”

Qin Muchen had arrived at the entrance of the office. He suddenly heard a familiar male voice coming out from inside.

He walked closer and heard Gong Zeyang saying, “That Qin Muchen is unworthy of you. If not for…”

This voice is very familiar. If not for what?

Qin Muchen inched closer. From the half-open door, he saw Gong Zeyang’s huge silhouette blocking in front of the much more petite Su Ziyue.

Qin Muchen could only see the back of Gong Zeyang.

He knew that he was supposed to enter now, but seeing this and hearing Gong Zeyang’s words, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. Then, he moved aside slightly without leaving or entering.

Gong Zeyang hesitated before continuing, “If not for that… night, you wouldn’t have to marry him. You’ve liked me for so many years, so why would you marry a man whom you don’t love?”
