Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304

She wanted to tell him what had happened last night, but when the words came to her lips, she restrained herself.

What had happened last night was her problem, and Qin Muchen and her were only business partners...

She had warned herself continuously, but she almost let it slip all the time.

“What’s weird?” Qin Muchen became interested as he spoke while walking into the classroom.

Because it was a rock cave, it was very humid inside, and the lighting was poor. The tables and chairs were mostly brought by the kids from home.

The condition was really bad.

“His gaze.” Su Ziyue thought about it and said, “I think someone like Mr. Lee is really admirable, but his gaze made me slightly uncomfortable…”

And she was unable to describe how uncomfortable she felt exactly.

She believed that one’s facial features always reflected who they were.

For someone to be able to resist the temptations outside and return to the poor village to teach, he must be an open-minded and open-hearted person.

But sometimes, Lee Yannan’s gaze was really weird...

Qin Muchen was walking forward as he said, “Most of the time, trusting your own instincts is right.”

He stood in front of a table and looked at the thick layer of dirt on top. He stopped and didn’t walk deeper as he turned around to look at Su Ziyue.

Su Ziyue was still thinking about what he had said earlier.

When she saw Qin Muchen turning around, she asked, “Does that mean, you think so too?”

“Did you forget what I said earlier?” Qin Muchen returned the question.

What he said earlier… To trust my instincts?

Su Ziyue asked immediately, “You think so too? If so, what do you think is the problem with Mr. Lee?”

Qin Muchen did not answer, but he asked her instead, “Didn’t you say he was admirable?”

He admired this kind of person as well, but she praised some other man in front of him...

“What he did was indeed admirable, but his gaze really looked weird sometimes, so that’s why I’m confused.”

If it was the old Su Ziyue, she wouldn’t overthink it, but since the incident two years ago, she was becoming really careful and cautious.

She wouldn’t dare to do anything carelessly after that.

When Qin Muchen saw that Su Ziyue was conflicted, he finally said, “I’ll handle it. Just stay further away from him, and don’t go out alone.”

And he was not planning to tell her that Lee Yannan was secretly following her.

He was afraid she would be worried.

The two bumped into Li Qingluo when they got back.

The moment Li Qingluo saw them coming back together, she couldn’t hide her surprise, but she knew her boundaries, so she didn’t mention anything.

“President Qin, Director Su.”

Su Ziyue knew Li Qingluo would definitely misunderstand her and Qin Muchen again. So, she walked over and asked, “Is there any problem?”

Li Qingluo muttered, “There are some things that I wanted to consult you…”

She was still slightly afraid of her boss.

“You can ask as we walk.” Su Ziyue finished her sentence and turned to Qin Muchen. “We’ll be going first. You can roam around on your own.”

With that, she went away with Li Qingluo.

Qin Muchen watched as they entered the house, only then did he turn around and went the other way.

He saw Lee Yannan again.

But this time, it was not Lee Yannan who was following him. When he was walking back earlier, he noticed Lee Yannan’s house by chance.

When Qin Muchen went over, Lee Yannan was sweeping the floor.

His house had two rooms—a kitchen and a bedroom. The bedroom and the kitchen were connected.

The kitchen was small, and it would be a tight fit for two people. The bedroom was slightly bigger, furnished with a bed, a worn down wooden cupboard, and a desk.

It was very simple and crude. There was nothing special to it, but it was very clean.

After hearing the footsteps, Lee Yannan looked up immediately.

He was stunned when he saw Qin Muchen. He stopped sweeping and asked, “Mr. Qin? What brings you here?”

Qin Muchen glanced around the house, and he noticed an old and shabby chair at the corner.

He pulled over the chair and sat on it.

But before he could sit properly, a loud creak was heard coming from the chair.

Qin Muchen knitted his eyebrows but continued to sit on it.

“There’s no entertainment here, and since I am free, I thought I’d come and chat with you, Mr. Lee. I realized that you seem to be... different than the rest of the villagers.”

Qin Muchen intentionally paused for a moment, so he’d look as if he was thinking about it before he spoke.

He had just finished his sentence, and indeed, he noticed that Lee Yannan’s expression had changed.

“Well, aren’t we all the same? We’re all poor after all.”

Lee Yannan was talking as he swept the rubbish into the dustpan and dumped it outside before walking into the house again.

“You’re different from them; you’re knowledgeable, and you have your own visions.” Qin Muchen’s tone sounded as if he was testing him.

All of Lee Yannan’s behaviour so far had made Qin Muchen conclude that he wanted to stand out among the villagers.

This showed that he was someone who was ambitious and had his own vision. However, due to the environment he grew up in, he needed to work harder than ordinary people in order to stand out.

As Lee Yannan heard his words, his eyes lit up, but dimmed soon after. He shook his head as he said, “I am grateful to be able to teach in the village.”

Qin Muchen smiled enigmatically when he heard his reply. “Mr. Lee, you’re indeed a selfless person.”

When Lee Yannan looked at the smile on Qin Muchen’s face, his face suddenly went pale. “I’m sorry, Mr. Qin. I feel slightly unwell today and I would like to get some rest now.”

“In that case, Mr. Lee, please get some rest, and take care.” After Qin Muchen finished speaking, he got up and left.

On the way back, Qin Muchen reorganized everything in his head, including the things Lee Yannan had said as well as his reactions.

A human trafficker, a fugitive on the run, and a teacher in a poor village… Interesting indeed. However…

The people who did these kinds of things definitely didn’t have any good intentions, so regardless of whether the Lee Yannan mentioned by Nan Chuan was this person, he had to alert Su Ziyue about it.

Women get confused easily sometimes.

During dinner, Qin Muchen and Su Ziyue sat on the same table.

The rest didn’t join them.

Qin Muchen was slowly eating the sweet potatoes when he suddenly said, as if he was casually chatting, “I have asked Nan Chuan to search on it and there is a fugitive on the run named Lee Yannan.”

Qin Muchen spoke softly, and only Su Ziyue could hear him.

Su Ziyue thought she had heard wrongly as she replied, “What?”

“Regardless of whether he is that person, just stay further away from him. And don’t go running about the place.”

After Qin Muchen had told her everything in a concise manner, he didn’t speak again, but Su Ziyue no longer had the appetite to eat.

She thought Lee Yannan was a little weird previously, as his behaviour was contradictory with his character.

However, after hearing what Qin Muchen had said, she thought it was outrageous.
