Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155

Su Ziyue entered the elevator; as she looked out from it, she could still see Su Yuanming’s angry face.

Su Ziyue narrowed her eyes and snorted coldly as she watched the elevator door close.

…

It was exactly four o’clock when she stopped in front of the LK Group building.

Su Ziyue hesitated in the car for half a second before she opened the door, got out of the car and walked inside.

The lady at the front desk saw Su Ziyue coming, and she looked slightly surprised. “Miss Su?”

“Hello.” Su Ziyue nodded at her. “It’s been a long time since we’ve last met—you’ve become prettier.”

The lady at the front desk then asked, “Do you have an appointment, Miss Su?” She felt strange to be suddenly praised by a beautiful woman.

Su Ziyue replied bluntly, “No.”

The lady at the front desk looked hesitant. “In that case…”

“That’s because I’m here to see my husband.” Su Ziyue tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled, looking pure and harmless.

“Miss Su, you can ask your husband to come and pick you up,” said the lady at the front desk tactfully. A trace of surprise flashed across her face, insinuating that she could not go in without an appointment.

Previously, the president specifically instructed her to let Miss Su go in freely; she thought there was something between Miss Su and the president.

However, the president handed over the project to his subordinates to liaise with Miss Su instead, presumably because there was no longer any special relationship between them.

Su Ziyue smiled faintly and said nothing. After all, she came all the way here not to waste time with the lady at the front desk.

Su Ziyue was making up a reason to get in when she heard footsteps from the door. Looking up with joy, she caught sight of Bai Jingshu.

Bai Jingshu was surprised when he saw Su Ziyue as well. “Su Ziyue? Why are you here?”

“Do I need to report to you whenever I come to see my husband?” Su Ziyue didn’t like Bai Jingshu’s tone of voice that sounded as if she shouldn’t have come.

“That’s not quite it. You’ve come to see—” Bai Jingshu glanced at the front desk lady. “Let’s go up first.”

The lady at the front desk was familiar with Bai Jingshu. Seeing that he was going to take Su Ziyue up, she couldn’t say much.

…

Su Ziyue followed Bai Jingshu to Qin Muchen’s office only to find no one there.

“He should be in a meeting.” With his hands in his pockets, Bai Jingshu slumped onto the sofa leisurely.

Su Ziyue suddenly wanted to see what Qin Muchen was like during the meeting. Hence, she asked Bai Jingshu, “Where is the meeting room?”

“What are you going to do?”

“I just want to go and have a look. What do you think I’m doing?” Does he think I’m the kind of woman who barges in regardless of occasion and time, even if I know that he is in a meeting?

Bai Jingshu smiled. “Alright, I’ll take you there since you’re the boss.”

Su Ziyue asked him, “Is Qin Muchen your boss too?”

Bai Jingshu was rendered speechless.

The meeting Qin Muchen convened was a small meeting with only five or six high-level executives present. The meeting room was not very large, but the interior was extremely delicate.

As soon as Su Ziyue walked over, she saw Qin Muchen through the glass wall as he slammed a document directly onto the meeting table.

None of his subordinates were speaking as they remained motionless.

Even through the soundproof glass wall, Su Ziyue thought that she could feel the chill experienced by the high-level executives sitting on Qin Muchen’s right-hand seats inside.

Su Ziyue’s gaze followed Qin Muchen for a while. Although she could not hear what he was saying, she could feel him talking.

She suddenly felt that she was considered very lucky; the fate as his wife was much better than the fate as his subordinates.

“Muchen’s temper has always been bad, but he’s good to you,” Bai Jingshu suddenly piped up from the side.

Su Ziyue opened her mouth; she wanted to say that the Qin Muchen she knew did not have a bad temper, but looking at the scene in the meeting room, she just couldn’t say it.

Her gaze might’ve been too intense, for Qin Muchen—who had been talking inside with his back to Su Ziyue all the time—suddenly turned around and looked at her.

Caught off guard, Su Ziyue met his eyes that were so deep as if they contained endless nights; she didn’t know what kind of expression to wear. After being stunned for a moment, she raised the corners of her lips and smiled at him.

Qin Muchen turned back quickly. With the image of Su Ziyue’s smile filling up his mind, he glanced down at the proposal in front of him and felt like it wasn’t that bad at all.

Just when everyone thought he would throw away the proposal again, Qin Muchen’s frown slowly eased as he pushed the proposal aside. “Meeting adjourned. Revise this proposal based on the content of the previous meeting, and give it to me by tomorrow.”

After speaking, he got up to open the door of the meeting room and left in strides.

Immediately, he saw Su Ziyue standing there smiling quietly at him. He then walked toward her after a short pause.

Su Ziyue was overjoyed, thinking that he was walking toward her. Believing that she had made the right decision, she witnessed an unexpected plot twist.

Qin Muchen brushed past her and walked up to Bai Jingshu instead. “What’s up?”

Can’t I come and see you for no reason?

Naturally, this was just Bai Jingshu’s own monologue; he replied to Qin Muchen, “There are some problems with the company.”

“Let’s talk in the office.”

With that, he walked toward the office without even taking a look at Su Ziyue.

Bai Jingshu glanced at Su Ziyue in surprise, his eyes full of curiosity.

Su Ziyue had been ignored by Qin Muchen many times today, so she didn’t feel quite upset.

Moreover, she thought that if it was really like what An Xia had said, it seemed like he was the one who was more upset.

…

When they arrived at the office, the two men proceeded to discuss their business affairs.

As the project director of Su Group, Su Ziyue wasn’t in a position to listen to things about other companies, so she sat on the other side and played games on her phone.

When she failed to clear a level for the twentieth time, she heard Qin Muchen’s cold yet attractive voice asking, “Why are you still here?”

There was a sense of disgust and impatience in his words.

Su Ziyue put the phone away, and it was only then did she realize that Bai Jingshu had already left.

Qin Muchen didn’t mention anything about what happened yesterday, so Su Ziyue didn’t quite know how to bring the topic up.

She was silent for a moment before she glanced at him. “I’m waiting for you to go home together.”

“I have an appointment tonight.” Qin Muchen glanced at her with an unfathomable expression on his face.

Is he reporting his schedule to me? Is he not angry anymore?

Su Ziyue blinked her eyes. “In that case, I should follow you.”

Qin Muchen narrowed his eyes and inadvertently looked at her feet. As if suddenly remembering something, his face darkened.

“Take off your shoes.”

“Okay,” Su Ziyue replied, obediently taking off both of her shoes before putting her legs onto the sofa.

Qin Muchen walked over. Seeing that her sprained foot was no longer swollen, the gloom on his face faded a little. “You will only get in my way if you follow me there.”
