Gong Zeyang turned around to look at her. With a gloomy expression on his face, he coldly said, “You’re here.”
“Do you feel unwell? Did Qin Muchen and Su Ziyue do anything to…” Su Yige said as she reached out to fumble around his body, afraid that he got injured again.
After Gong Zeyang heard her mention Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen’s name, his expression became even more gloomy. “I’m fine.”
Then, he pushed Su Yige away and sat upright. With a note of bitterness in his voice, he said, “I will not let this go so easily.”
“Qin Muchen beat you up so badly. You must not let them get away with it!”
Deep down, Su Yige hated Qin Muchen and Su Ziyue to the core.
Gong Zeyang ignored her. Instead, he squinted his eyes and his expression turned blank.
It was only after Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen returned to the car did they remember that they forgot to bid Lu Shichu farewell.
“I haven’t said goodbye to Shichu…”
“There’s no need. He’s a really busy man so let’s not disturb him.”
Qin Muchen instantly cut her off, as if he knew what she was about to say.
After giving it some thought, Su Ziyue felt that Qin Muchen was right. At first, she was planning to call Lu Shichu but after hearing Qin Muchen’s words, she only sent him a text.
Meanwhile, Lu Shichu was looking at a patient’s medical records when he received her message.
It was just a simple cholecystitis operation but the patient had insisted that he performed the surgery. Due to the identity of the patient, Lu Shichu had no choice but to patiently go through his records. While reading, he kept tapping on the table with his other hand, indicating his impatience.
When his phone buzzed, there was an obvious pause in his hand movements. Seeing that it was a message from Su Ziyue, he paused for a moment before he picked his phone up. After he saw the expected message content on his screen, he grinned helplessly before he let out a sigh and replied, ‘Okay, feel free to contact me if you need me.’
After he finished typing this sentence, he added, ‘No matter what happens.’
He suddenly felt a strong sense of loss. The little girl is now all grown up. She even has somebody she likes. I feel like I’m being left out.
After Su Ziyue received Lu Shichu’s message, she smiled. Just when she was about to reply to him, her phone was snatched away by a hand that suddenly appeared.
Qin Muchen looked at the content of the message and raised an eyebrow slightly.
What kind of matter that I can’t handle that she’ll need to find Lu Shichu?
He snorted coldly and threw the phone aside before he turned to look ahead and said, “There’s no need to reply to him. He’s busy.”
It was the first time Su Ziyue had seen Qin Muchen’s ‘considerate’ side.
As soon as Qin Muchen brought Su Ziyue home, he received a call from Bai Jingshu.
He knew why Bai Jingshu was calling him so he turned to glance at Su Ziyue, who was playing with Beef, and said, “I’m heading to the study.”
“Go ahead,” Su Ziyue replied without even looking up.
Seeing this, Qin Muchen frowned slightly. With a cold expression on his face, he glared at Beef and saw that Beef was rubbing onto Su Ziyue, acting as if it had never smelled her before. With that, he sneered and turned to head upstairs.
Seeing that you’re just a dog, I’ll let you go this time.
Qin Muchen entered the study and made a call to Bai Jingshu.
“I’ll treat you to a meal. We’ll talk about it when we meet.”
On the other end of the phone, Bai Jingshu said something and Qin Muchen simply mumbled in reply before hanging up.
When it was time for dinner, Qin Muchen went downstairs to look for Su Ziyue and found her sleeping on the sofa with Beef in her arms.
Qin Muchen stared at her childish sleeping posture for a while before he picked up Beef with a frown.
Dogs had good hearing. Even though Beef had long heard his male master’s footsteps, it still panicked when Qin Muchen picked it up.
However, Qin Muchen, who had prepared in advance immediately reached out to pinch the dog’s mouth shut and glared at it coldly.
Beef could sense the malice from its male master so it drooped its eyelids pitifully and didn’t dare to make a sound.
“Leave.”
Qin Muchen placed Beef on the ground and patted its back to signal it to leave.
Perhaps it was because Beef felt that its male master still loved it, it forgave him and happily left.
With that, Qin Muchen went upstairs to grab a coat to cover Su Ziyue. Then, he glanced at the time and sent a text message to Bai Jingshu before he sat at the side and waited for Su Ziyue to wake up.
Fortunately, Su Ziyue wasn’t in deep sleep and she woke up pretty soon.
“Why are you here?”
As soon as Su Ziyue opened her eyes, she saw Qin Muchen and a look of shock flashed across her face.
Qin Muchen got up and pulled her up too. Then, he grabbed the coat that covered her body and as he helped her put it on, he said, “We’re heading to Lumiere Jade House for dinner.”
“Why?” Su Ziyue lazily put her hands into the sleeves and even yawned.
All of a sudden, she seemed startled. Is Qin Muchen helping me put on my coat?
Qin Muchen buttoned up her coat, grabbed a scarf and wrapped it around her neck before he said, “Okay, let’s go.”
After she finished speaking, he took her hand and they walked out of the house.
Su Ziyue followed him out of the house like a puppet. Deep down, her heart was beating fast. She suddenly had a feeling that she wasn’t Qin Muchen’s wife because she was clearly being treated like a daughter!
He helps me put on my clothes, he cooks, and he handles everything….except… Ahem! What am I thinking?!
Fortunately, Qin Muchen was driving attentively all the way and didn’t notice the expression on Su Ziyue’s face.
“You let me wait for twenty minutes.”
They heard Bai Jingshu’s lazy voice as soon as they entered the VIP room.
Hearing this, Su Ziyue looked up to glance at Bai Jingshu.
Oh, so we’re eating with Bai Jingshu. Qin Muchen is usually quite punctual but he is late today. Is it because he was waiting for me to wake up?
Su Ziyue felt ashamed at the thought and she only grinned and pretended to not know anything.
Seeing this, Bai Jingshu raised an eyebrow and dramatically leaned on his chair. “Don’t smile at me. It’s scary.”
As he spoke, he even purposely widened his eyes and put on a scared expression.
Bai Jingshu had always been a joker.
“Don’t worry, we’re friends.” Su Ziyue patted his shoulder and she looked amiable.
Qin Muchen silently walked over, pulled Su Ziyue’s arm back, and made her sit beside him. Then, he sat in between them to separate the two.
When Bai Jingshu saw this, he rolled his eyes and despised Qin Muchen’s pettiness.
While they waited for the dishes to be served, Bai Jingshu and Qin Muchen talked about business matters. Su Ziyue listened but after a while, she didn’t understand what they were saying.
She couldn’t be bothered to continue listening so she pulled out her phone.
As soon as she opened her social networking application, she received a message from An Xia.
The Adorable Miss An: ‘Ziyue, where are you now?’
Seeing this, Su Ziyue immediately replied, ‘I’m having a meal at Lumiere Jade House. What’s wrong?’
To which An Xia quickly replied, ‘Are you with Mr. Qin?’
‘Yes.’
‘I’m in the VIP room on the third floor. Come together with Mr. Qin. Quickly.’
When Su Ziyue noticed that An Xia’s tone seemed strange, she hurriedly called An Xia.
