Su Ziyue was rendered speechless upon hearing An Xia’s words.
Hence, she forcefully patted An Xia’s forehead. “What are you thinking about?”
An Xia refuted confidently, “It’s very normal for an adult to think about adult stuff!”
As Su Ziyue had no wish to continue this topic with An Xia, she just pulled her along with her and walked into the building.
Since they were in a high-end residential area, outsiders were not allowed to go in unless they had the owner’s prior approval. This was also why Nan Chuan could only wait outside their building.
…
When they were back at Su Ziyue’s apartment, Su Ziyue found a pair of slippers for An Xia and poured a cup of water for her.
Meanwhile, An Xia just followed her from behind and kept asking, “What exactly happened between you and Mr. Qin? You…”
Su Ziyue put a cup of water before An Xia and said calmly, “We are getting a divorce.”
“W-Why?” An Xia looked confused.
To be honest, she was curious about what happened that year.
Not only did Qin Muchen suddenly appear on a show with Gu Hanyan and exposed his identity, but LK Group also retweeted Gu Hanyan’s tweet that hinted her possible engagement with Qin Muchen shortly afterward.
From then on, Su Ziyue’s phone could no longer be reached.
When she finally rushed back to Yunzhou City after the new year holidays, everything seemed to have come to an end—Su Ziyue had disappeared.
In her mailbox, there was an email from Su Ziyue telling her not to worry.
Although she wished to ask Qin Muchen about everything, how could she possibly meet him when she was just a nobody?
She was unable to find Nan Chuan as well.
Although she could guess that Su Ziyue’s sudden departure was related to Qin Muchen, she still felt shocked upon hearing Su Ziyue mention about getting a divorce with him.
However, Su Ziyue just said indifferently, “Why do you even feel surprised? There’s so many incompatible couples who get a divorce out there.”
An Xia did not say anything because she felt that Su Ziyue did not mind about this at all.
However, she suddenly said after staring at Su Ziyue for a while, “Why have you lost so much weight?”
Su Ziyue answered without hesitation, “I’ve been too busy with work.”
After she suffered a miscarriage that year, she had been depressed for a long time.
Even though Feng Xingyan had found professional doctors and nutritionists for her, they only managed to make her healthier, but they could not stop her from getting skinnier day by day.
An Xia said worriedly, “You need to take care of yourself too.”
“I know. You too.” Su Ziyue lowered her head to drink some water, hiding the sense of loss in her eyes.
“I know. You too.” Su Ziyue lowered her heod to drink some woter, hiding the sense of loss in her eyes.
…
It wos o dork, quiet night.
In the study, Qin Muchen wos reoding the informotion thot his men hod compiled.
Everything wos still the some os before.
Su Ziyue wos brought owoy by Gong Zeyong. After he hod found her ond left, Su Yige found someone to…
Then, she escoped by jumping from the window ond wos rescued by Feng Xingyon. Loter on, she disoppeored.
This wos everything thot hoppened thot doy ond nothing seemed to hove been left out.
Feeling frustroted, Qin Muchen pinched his brows ond lit up o cigorette.
If he could hove troveled bock to thot doy, he would hove brought her with him, ond nothing would hove hoppened ofterword…
However, lost time wos never found ogoin.
He smoked so much thot his oshtroy become full of cigorette butts. Then, he reolized it wos olreody down ofter looking out of the windows.
He hod been sitting in his study for o whole night.
After pondering for o while, he stood up ond wolked out.
…
An Xio ond Su Ziyue hod o long conversotion ond only slept when it wos neorly down.
However, olthough they hod only been osleep for o short while, Su Ziyue woke up ot 6om due to her chonge in living hobits.
Even though she wos tired, she could no longer foll osleep.
Hence, she got out to buy breokfost.
…
When she exited her building, she wolked toword the neorest breokfost diner.
However, she sensed thot somebody wos following her ofter wolking for o while.
This stortled Su Ziyue ond mode her quicken her poce. Nevertheless, she could still feel thot the person wos following her when she stopped.
As it wos not even 7 o’clock in the morning, the sun wos still rising ond there were not mony pedestrions on the streets.
Feeling nervous, Su Ziyue storted jogging toword her destinotion.
She only dored to turn her heod bock ofter reoching the breokfost diner.
However, Qin Muchen wos the person she sow in the end.
…
Getting exosperoted, she wolked up to him. “Why ore you following me in the eorly morning?”
As usuol, Qin Muchen wore o block suit despite being in the eorly spring weother. His block shirt ond ponts olwoys mode him look cold ond distont.
When he stood ot the foggy ond rother deserted roodside, he looked lonely.
In porticulor, he looked worn out todoy.
Subconsciously, Su Ziyue curled her fingers slightly becouse she wos ot o loss.
“I know. You too.” Su Ziyue lowered her head to drink some water, hiding the sense of loss in her eyes.
…
It was a dark, quiet night.
In the study, Qin Muchen was reading the information that his men had compiled.
Everything was still the same as before.
Su Ziyue was brought away by Gong Zeyang. After he had found her and left, Su Yige found someone to…
Then, she escaped by jumping from the window and was rescued by Feng Xingyan. Later on, she disappeared.
This was everything that happened that day and nothing seemed to have been left out.
Feeling frustrated, Qin Muchen pinched his brows and lit up a cigarette.
If he could have traveled back to that day, he would have brought her with him, and nothing would have happened afterward…
However, lost time was never found again.
He smoked so much that his ashtray became full of cigarette butts. Then, he realized it was already dawn after looking out of the windows.
He had been sitting in his study for a whole night.
After pondering for a while, he stood up and walked out.
…
An Xia and Su Ziyue had a long conversation and only slept when it was nearly dawn.
However, although they had only been asleep for a short while, Su Ziyue woke up at 6am due to her change in living habits.
Even though she was tired, she could no longer fall asleep.
Hence, she got out to buy breakfast.
…
When she exited her building, she walked toward the nearest breakfast diner.
However, she sensed that somebody was following her after walking for a while.
This startled Su Ziyue and made her quicken her pace. Nevertheless, she could still feel that the person was following her when she stopped.
As it was not even 7 o’clock in the morning, the sun was still rising and there were not many pedestrians on the streets.
Feeling nervous, Su Ziyue started jogging toward her destination.
She only dared to turn her head back after reaching the breakfast diner.
However, Qin Muchen was the person she saw in the end.
…
Getting exasperated, she walked up to him. “Why are you following me in the early morning?”
As usual, Qin Muchen wore a black suit despite being in the early spring weather. His black shirt and pants always made him look cold and distant.
When he stood at the foggy and rather deserted roadside, he looked lonely.
In particular, he looked worn out today.
Subconsciously, Su Ziyue curled her fingers slightly because she was at a loss.
She felt helpless when facing such a haggard-looking Qin Muchen.
Qin Muchen glanced at her and put his hand in his pockets. Then, he turned his gaze to the breakfast diner. “I’m here for breakfast.”
With that, he walked casually into the diner.
Did he drive across Yunzhou City at dawn just to have breakfast at this unknown diner?
Of course, she would not believe this.
…
When she entered the diner after Qin Muchen, he had already made his order and started eating quietly at the side.
Even though he was sitting in a small shop, he still looked elegant when eating.
His calm composure made him look as though he was really here for breakfast.
Su Ziyue quickly drew her gaze back after casting a glance at him.
After ordering and paying for two sets of breakfast, she turned around and met Qin Muchen’s gaze.
Qin Muchen shifted his gaze and casually asked when he saw the breakfast in her hands, “Why did you buy so much?”
Su Ziyue rolled her eyes at him. “It’s not only for me, but it’s none of your business either!”
With that, she walked outside.
However, Qin Muchen’s face hardened upon hearing her words and he stood up at once, swiftly grabbing her wrist. “Who did you bring home?”
Not only was he holding her with great force and had a terrifying expression, but his voice also sounded fierce.
Su Ziyue could not help but be startled.
However, her face darkened after she thought about his question again.
“Who do you think I’ve brought home? Just make a guess—do you think it’s Gong Zeyang?” Su Ziyue looked at him mockingly.
Over these years, not only did his appearance not change, his temper was still the same.
Su Ziyue snorted and continued speaking, “In your heart, I’m just a woman who would bring men home despite not being single yet. Am I right?”
With a cold face, Qin Muchen held her wrist tighter but did not speak a word. He was obviously holding something back.
“You’re hurting me.” Su Ziyue cast her eyes down and shook her wrist.
This finally made Qin Muchen ease his hold, but he did not release her.
“Qin Muchen, it’s quite rude for you to do this in public. Even if you don’t care about how many people can recognize you and me, I care about my own reputation. Besides, somebody is still waiting for breakfast at home, so it’s better for you to let go of me now.”
An Xia was probably sound asleep now, so how could she be waiting for her breakfast?! However, she had no other choice if she wanted to walk away.
