Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 180

Chapter 180

The man’s voice which sounded bleak started spreading in the cold and dark room. Su Ziyue couldn’t help but shudder because of its unusual eeriness.

Her hand was grabbing the keys tightly which she had inserted into the keyhole of the door because her movement had gone frozen while she was getting ready to take it out.

Stunned for a moment, she soon calmed herself down and extracted the key before switching on the lights.

“Why are you here?”

Wasn’t he having dinner with Gu Hanyan just now?

Qin Muchen was sitting on the sofa with his back facing her; his back was kept straightened in a way that made his posture look somewhat rigid.

Was it because he had been maintaining that posture for too long a time or was it because he was nervous?

As soon as that thought emerged in her mind, the corners of her lips were curled upward into a scornful smile.

“Do I need to have a reason to be at my wife’s place?” Qin Muchen turned around to face her and said after slowly getting to his feet.

His face looked as stern and icy as his voice.

“Nope, you don’t need to have any reason for anything you want to do.” Standing by the door without moving, the grip on her handbag tightened.

At that juncture, some footsteps could be heard from behind. A woman’s voice which sounded familiar rang before Su Ziyue could even turn around. “Hey, aren’t you the Second Young Lady of the Su family?” the woman asked.

Su Ziyue spun around to find her neighbour who she used to have some interactions with but whose name she did not know.

Li Jingqi stared at her with both arms crossed in front of her chest. Many things had taken place since Su Ziyue moved out of the place. Although she no longer stayed at the condominium, Li Jingqi still managed to discover the identity of Su Ziyue, who used to stay in the unit opposite to hers, through the news on TV and the people around her.

She considered selling the tip to the media to fetch some money.

Smiling triumphantly, Li Jingqi questioned, “What’s going on? Are you moving back here because you were finally dumped by your husband?”

She then tilted her head and tried to look inside Su Ziyue’s unit. Yet, she did not manage to spot Qin Muchen inside because Su Ziyue was blocking her view by standing at the door.

This only cemented her assumption that Su Ziyue was moving back alone.

Yet, Qin Muchen was seen walking out of the unit the next instant. “Seems like Miss Li does have a bad memory.”

The sight of Qin Muchen sent Li Jingqi’s eyes widening as astonishment flashed across her face. “You…”

Only an icy glance from Qin Muchen was enough to send Li Jingqi making a panicked return to her own unit. When she was trying to unlock the door, she only managed to insert it into the keyhole after several attempts.

Su Ziyue was slightly taken aback by Li Jingqi’s reaction. From what she remembered, that neighbour of hers had only met Qin Muchen not more than five times. Why was she so afraid of him?

Thump!

The sound of Qin Muchen banging the door shut pulled her back to reality with a start. He used one of his arms to snatch the bag from Su Ziyue’s hands, unzipped it and turned it upside down to empty it.

Following a clattering sound, everything inside the bag was strewn all over the floor.

“What are you doing?” Su Ziyue extended her hand to snatch her bag back from him.

Seeing that everything inside the bag had already fallen out, Qin Muchen loosened his hold to allow her to take the bag back.

He was not interested in the bag but the stuff inside.

Taking the empty bag, Su Ziyue stared in confusion at Qin Muchen, who seemed to be searching for something with his head held low. “What on earth are you doing?!”

Ignoring her completely, Qin Muchen lowered his head to scan the little pieces of items scattered on the floor.

He found a mirror, lipstick, and her phone…

Although he did not go through the stuff with his hands, his vision was sharp enough. After examining the pile of stuff on the floor twice because he refused to give up, he still failed to locate his target.

Suddenly, he looked up with his eyes dark and spooky and extended his hands to grab Su Ziyue’s chin. “Where are the pills?” he confronted in an icy voice.

Her chin felt painful because his fingers felt like metal pliers which were exerting enormous force on her chin.

Nonetheless, she gritted her teeth to cope with the pain. “What pills?”

Fury could be detected in his voice when he thundered, “Contraceptive pills!”

Su Ziyue was stunned by what he said. “You…”

How did he know she had bought the pills?

Had he been following her earlier that day? The emergence of that thought in her mind caused some strange changes to her heart.

Noticing her shock, Qin Muchen’s expression changed slightly before removing his hands from her chin. “Don’t overthink. I just happened to pass by that area when I saw you walking into the pharmacy.”

Su Ziyue, whose face had turned pale, could not process the excuse he just gave her.

She started feeling chilly because the heater in the living room was not on.

After giving the stuff on the floor a scan, she confirmed that the pills she had bought earlier were not there. Perhaps she had accidentally dropped it when she was trying to look for change in the bag to pay for the bus fare.



She took a step back and leaned against the icy wall, then shuddered before she told him, “I ate it.”

As soon as she said that, the living room sank into deadly silence.

Seconds felt like years for Su Ziyue.

After some time, Qin Muchen said with a slightly raucous voice, “Are you really that reluctant to have kids with me?”

Su Ziyue could not gauge his emotion from his words but for some reason, her heart softened.

There was a moment where she thought that since she would need to have kids with Qin Muchen either way, she might not mind having them earlier if he really was that eager.

Yet, Qin Muchen’s voice rang once again before she could even speak, “Do you know how long the effect of the contraceptive pills lasts?”

Puzzled by his sudden question, Su Ziyue asked him back reflexively, “How long?”

“72 hours after consumption.”

As soon as his voice trailed off, Su Ziyue felt a floating sensation as she was lifted off her feet by Qin Muchen.

Her heart sank as she could sense the motive of his action with her intuition. With her voice imbued with intense fear, she yelled, “Qin Muchen, let me down now!”

Suddenly, his voice turned unusually gentle as he said, “Why are you still so shy even after doing it so many times?”

With that, he tossed her onto the bed.

Su Ziyue was thrusted onto the blanket forcefully. Because she had landed on her head, she experienced a temporary dizziness.

By the time his heavy and stout body pressed against her body, Su Ziyue couldn’t help but shudder and she had even forgotten to put up a fight.

Qin Muchen’s slender fingers then traced her face and travelled downward past her neck and collarbones…

His movement was sensuous and gentle.

While he was caressing her, her body tensed up and she did not dare to move. In a faint voice, she proposed, “Qin Muchen, can we talk?”

Her voice was slightly shaky, and a layer of moisture had formed in her attractive eyes. Her eyelashes fluttered as she stared at him both imploringly and somewhat stubbornly, and she looked pitiful and weak with her black hair around her head on the blanket.

Qin Muchen stopped what he was doing and saw his reflection in her watery eyes as soon as he looked up.

Feeling a throbbing pain in his heart for some reason, he squinted his eyes and retorted without changing his expression, “Talk?”
