Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 343

Chapter 343

Qin Muchen had a cold expression on his face as he stared at her and asked, “If I don’t come to you, should I just wait for you to come to me?” I’m afraid that I won’t even get to see her after she gets off from work.

Su Ziyue could hear Qin Muchen’s dissatisfaction from his high pitched voice as she held onto the tea cup properly. Then, she flipped over the document in front of her and sat upright before she carefully glanced at Qin Muchen and explained, “I have been a little busy for the past few days…”

“Yes, I can see that you’re even busier than me.” As Qin Muchen spoke, he sat down opposite her.

His dark gaze locked upon Su Ziyue, as if he wouldn’t just let it go if she didn’t explain herself in a satisfactory way. Hearing this, Su Ziyue felt a little guilty. Qin Muchen didn’t stand her up even when he was at his busiest times. On the other hand, she was so occupied and exhausted from her own affairs lately that she didn’t have time to worry about him at all.

She took a careful sip of her tea and just when she was about to speak, Li Qingluo knocked on the door. “Director Su, I brought you your food delivery.” When Qin Muchen heard this, he looked even more upset. With an eyebrow raised, he asked, “Haven’t you eaten?” It was almost 2pm.

“Ha ha…” Su Ziyue chuckled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer.

At that instant, Qin Muchen suddenly got up and prompted, “Let’s go.”

Su Ziyue was startled. “Where are we going? What are we going to do?”

“We’re going for lunch.” Without turning his head around, Qin Muchen answered her and left.

Li Qingluo, who was standing outside the door waiting for Su Ziyue’s reply, was about to enter when the door was swung open from the inside. When she saw Qin Muchen in front of her, she was shocked. “Mr… Mr. Qin…”

“Mm.” Qin Muchen still remembered Li Qingluo, who was the woman that went to the village in the west with Su Ziyue for some charity work. After that, he left.

Su Ziyue followed behind him and said to Li Qingluo, “Thank you. Please put it on my desk.” As soon as she finished speaking, she chased after Qin Muchen. Qin Muchen seems to be really angry… At that time, she didn’t consider anything else. All she wanted to do was to finish the work on hand, so that she could buy out some time to deal with the matters about Su Group. She almost forgot how volatile Qin Muchen was!

Qin Muchen was tall with long, slender legs, so Su Ziyue had to run to the elevator door to catch up with him. Finally, when she did, she pulled on his arm tightly and uttered with a pant, “Don’t walk so fast. I almost couldn’t keep up…”

Qin Muchen glanced at her and didn’t say anything. Just then, the elevator door opened and Qin Muchen reached out to carry her into the elevator. Indeed, he actually lifted her up. He pulled her up by the back collar, lifted her off her feet, and placed her directly into the elevator. It was after Su Ziyue’s feet touched the ground only did she realize that Qin Muchen actually carried her!

“Hey!” Su Ziyue turned around and glared at Qin Muchen angrily. Seeing this, he calmly stretched out a finger and tapped on her lips, motioning her not to speak. After he saw that Su Ziyue had calmed down, he casually reached out to sort out the creases on the back of her collar. “There’s a crease here. Don’t move.”

Su Ziyue was speechless. The crease is only there because of you.

After a few seconds, Qin Muchen let her go and said, “Done.”

Su Ziyue snorted and didn’t even want to look at him. Seeing this, Qin Muchen reached out and pinched her cheeks. “I waited for you for the whole afternoon but you didn’t show up for our lunch appointment. I had no choice but to come looking for you. I haven’t even had lunch yet.”

He hasn’t eaten his lunch yet? Su Ziyue turned to look at him with a trace of guilt on her face.

Qin Muchen rubbed her head as his lips curled into a faint smile with a hint of triumph.

……

Qin Muchen brought Su Ziyue to a newly opened private dining restaurant. The environment was great with a strict sense of privacy. While waiting for the dishes to be served, Su Ziyue asked, “Why did you think of coming here?”

Qin Muchen pushed the bowl in front of him and calmly said, “Bai Jingshu owns this place, so we don’t have to pay.”

Su Ziyue was startled by Qin Muchen’s words. He speaks as if he enjoys being a freeloader.

“Why did he suddenly decide to open a private dining restaurant?” Su Ziyue asked.

Qin Muchen raised his eyebrows, pretending to think about it. Then, he slowly said, “He failed to pursue Miss An, so he has a lot of time and energy.”

What kind of an answer is that? Su Ziyue was left speechless. After giving it some thought, she pressed on, “What if he wants to steal away some of your business?”

“That’s impossible.” There was a hint of disdain in Qin Muchen’s tone.

Curious, Su Ziyue asked, “Why is it not possible?”

Qin Muchen sneered, “You’ve overestimated him.”

Su Ziyue decided to change the subject. “Aren’t you busy lately?” She thought that it was a safe topic to talk about. However…

A gloomy expression appeared on Qin Muchen’s face and he secretly gave Su Ziyue a despised look. “I’m the boss, so I’m naturally not so busy until the extent of having no time to eat, like you.”

Hearing this, Su Ziyue felt offended. “You’re the boss all right, but I work for other people. There’s certainly nothing to compare with.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Muchen suddenly yelled at her sternly, “Su Ziyue!”

“What?” Su Ziyue looked at him, puzzled.

“Do you really think that I have no idea what you’ve been up to lately?” As long as he wanted to find out, she couldn’t hide it from him no matter what. Not to mention, her actions of investigating the Su Group were pretty obvious. If he hadn’t secretly helped her out in the dark and gave a little pressure, the people at Su Group would have already started to notice.

“W-What? I’m just busy…” However, Su Ziyue was defeated by Qin Muchen’s stern gaze. She then confessed, “I have been investigating the Su Group lately.”

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Qin Muchen folded his arms, leaned backward, and lifted his chin slightly with an interrogating posture.

Su Ziyue secretly thought to herself, He’s doing it again…

She lowered her head and looked at her finger. “I can handle it.”

“I don’t care if you can handle it. The matter is related to my father-in-law, so I naturally have to contribute too.” With Qin Muchen’s ability, once he made a move, there wouldn’t be anything else left for Su Ziyue to do.

Qin Muchen saw that she hadn’t spoken for some time and there was a confused look on her face. Dissatisfied, he asked, “What’s with your expression? You don’t want me to interfere?”

After a moment’s consideration, Su Ziyue shook her head and replied, “No, I don’t.”

I might have been too gentle lately. I can’t believe that my wife wants to rebel against me.

“Of course I know that you have the ability to bring down Su Group in a short time, but I want to take action myself…” She believed that Qin Muchen would understand her. After all, she had lived in the Su Residence for a few years when everything happened. Su Yizi’s affair was the most difficult for her to accept. She felt upset and heartbroken, and she needed a place to vent. To her, that place was the Su Family.
