Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 202

Chapter 202

Watching Qin Muchen in consternation, Su Ziyue’s mouth hung slightly agape, and she found herself having difficulty speaking.

Qin Muchen, who appeared unperturbed, rose to his feet and went to wash the thermal flask.

Soon, he came back, one hand holding a glass of water and the other holding an empty glass with a toothbrush perched on top of it.

“Brush your teeth.” He placed the glasses on the table next to Su Ziyue and handed the toothbrush to her before placing a plastic basin in front of her.

Su Ziyue was left speechless by his actions.

After some hesitation, she said, “I can actually get out of bed.”

Qin Muchen only responded to her with a glance before taking the toothbrush from her hand. “Open your mouth,” he instructed.

So, was he going to help her brush her teeth?

Under his icy and penetrating gaze, she opened her mouth in silence.

With one hand keeping the plastic basin still and the other holding the toothbrush to brush her teeth, he did the task in a very serious and meticulous manner with a slight frown on his forehead. Every now and then, he would remind her to keep her mouth open and not to grit her teeth.

He then helped her clean her face…

After getting everything done, he helped her lie down and tucked in the corners of her blanket. “Sleep.”

Not taking into account his not-so-gentle face and icy tone, he behaved just like the perfect husband, treating her even better than before.

Su Ziyue, who was served by him like a child, pulled up the blanket and tried to cover her face with it as soon as she lay down.

She thought this whole situation was embarrassing no matter how she looked at it.

Qin Muchen made her lay on her side. Noticing that she did not close her eyes, he asked stiffly, “Does your wound hurt?”

Although she could not gauge much of his emotions from his voice, she could still detect a slight trace of worry and anxiety after listening to him more attentively.

“I’m okay…” As soon as he mentioned her wound, she immediately felt pain radiating from her back. Yet, it was bearable probably because of the effects of the drugs.

“Go on and sleep then.” Qin Muchen caressed her head and watched her to make sure she went to sleep.

Su Ziyue had no choice but to close her eyes obediently. Everything which had transpired so far felt so surreal as though she was in a dream. She had gotten injured then patched things up with Qin Muchen all of a sudden.

Yet, had she really just made peace with him just like that?

She closed her eyes and dozed off again.

Standing by the bed, Qin Muchen fished out his phone to give Nan Chuan a call after he was sure she had fallen asleep. “Come to the hospital now.”

…

Su Ziyue was staying in a VIP ward which was a spacious room which included a living room.

When Nan Chuan entered the ward and saw that the living room was empty, he went deeper inside and found Qin Muchen still staying beside the bed.

He approached him and called, “Mr. Qin…”

Qin Muchen turned around and shot him a look with his poker-face, signaling for him to keep quiet.

Nan Chuan had no choice but to oblige. In fact, his voice was not that loud at all.

Qin Muchen threw one last concerned glance at Su Ziyue before heading out with Nan Chuan.

“Who hired them?” He made his way to the living room and bent his tall and slender body to sit down on the sofa. Sitting cross-legged, his face looked somber.

“It was Mu Ninghui and Su Yige,” Nan Chuan reported the results of his investigation to his boss.

Qin Muchen fell into a lengthy silence after he heard Nan Chuan. With his eyes narrowed, no one knew what he was thinking because his expression was complicated and indecipherable.

Nan Chuan, who was standing next to him, held his head slightly low because he dreaded seeing his boss in this state the most.

He understood that his boss was furious because Su Ziyue was injured, but he was unsure how his boss was going to deal with the two culprits.

As Qin Muchen had not responded after a long while, he asked tentatively, “How do you think we should deal with them?”

Qin Muchen merely lifted his hand, an indication for him to be quiet and patient.

“You stay here. I’ll go and handle it myself.” With that, Qin Muchen stood up and smoothed out the creases on his suit jacket.

It was after midnight, and it had been around six to seven hours since Su Ziyue woke up from the surgery. As he had been staying at the hospital all that while, his clothes no longer looked neat and tidy.

But, he couldn’t care less about his attire.

“Mr. Qin.” Nan Chuan was slightly taken aback to learn that Qin Muchen was going to handle the matter himself.

Qin Muchen fixed him an intent gaze and ordered, “Get a maid to take care of her and to stop her from flipping and hurting her wound. You have to stay here too, and you’re not allowed to leave until I come back.”

“Okay…”

…

With his men, Qin Muchen headed straight to the Mu Residence.

It was three in the morning. Some of the street lamps in the courtyard and some lights inside the mansion were still on.

One of his men then pressed the doorbell, which was then answered by a maid who was on night duty. “May I know who you are looking for?”

After working at Mu Residence for years, the maid knew that the Mu Family enjoyed a very respectable social status in Yunzhou City. Because the family used to have visitors who came in the middle of the night, the maid never expected that Qin Muchen and his guys were here to look for trouble.

Without thinking too much, she opened the door for them.

“Sir and Madam have gone to sleep. The Young Master is also…”

Just as the maid was trying to explain something to them after she opened the door, one of Qin Muchen’s men shoved her away and snapped, “It’s none of your business.”

Then, they charged toward the living room, causing a stir which woke the butler up.

As soon as the butler saw Qin Muchen and his men walking over in a menacing manner, he soon realized that they didn’t come with good intentions.

“Sir, what are you doing?”

Qin Muchen approached the butler and demanded with a blank look on his face, “Get Mu Ninghui here.”

“Sir, the Young Master went to sleep very early today. If you have anything to discuss with him, you can do it tomorrow…”

Qin Muchen only responded to him with a sneer before directly making his way upstairs.

The butler yelled at him from behind, “Sir, you’re trespassing, and you should know that the Mu Family is not somebody you can afford to offend.”

Qin Muchen turned around to cast an icy glance at the butler, who took two steps back without him realizing before he was seized by Qin Muchen’s men.

“I’ve never given a damn about the Mu Family.” Penetrating coldness emerged in Qin Muchen’s eyes.

In fact, he had never taken the Mu nor the Su Family seriously at all. He had been cautious all this while just because he was in the middle of getting to the bottom of things, and he did not want his intentions to be exposed.

Yet, the gravest mistake they had made was hurting Su Ziyue.

Although he had been furious at the time when Mu Ninghui nearly raped Su Ziyue, he had merely crippled one of his legs as his punishment.

The main reason was because at that time, Su Ziyue was not as important to him compared to now. Therefore, he deemed that punishment sufficient to assuage his anger.

But this time, he even had the urge to kill him.

After heading upstairs, Qin Muchen’s men started searching the rooms one by one and finally located Mu Ninghui in one of them.

Mu Ninghui, who woke up with a start when they kicked open the door, sat bolt upright in his bed. Still fuzzy-minded, he mumbled, “Who the hell are you guys…”

The next instant, Qin Muchen walked over to haul him out of bed and threw him on the floor before stepping on his face.

Sneering, he asked, “Young Master Mu, can’t you recognize me anymore?”

Shock flickered on Mu Ninghui’s face when he saw Qin Muchen’s face. “It’s you!”
