Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 477

Chapter 477

Ziyue was excited and anxious at the same time.

Once Xiyi left, she rushed to Muchen and asked nervously, "How do you feel?"

Muchen considered for a moment before saying, "It tastes a bit fishy."

"Do you feel anything else?" Ziyue was still nervous because of Xiyi's instruction.

But Muchen shook his head.

Seeing his normal expression, Ziyue finally breathed a sigh of relief and helped Muchen to lie down to rest.

Soon, Chuan and Jingshu arrived.

Ziyue had contacted them earlier after Xiyi informed them that he had obtained the formula.

Thus, they knew Xiyi would have developed the antidote today and rushed over here.

Jingshu arrived first. As soon as he got in, he asked, "How is he?"

Ziyue glanced at Muchen lying on the bed and explained, "He had just taken medicine and needed observation. Xiyi has been exhausted from working non-stop the past few days and has returned to rest."

Upon hearing her, Jingshu walked to the bed and saw the obvious signs of aging on Muchen's face. He furrowed his brow and became worried.

Muchen was not asleep and had only closed his eyes to rest for a while. He sat on the bed after hearing their voices.

Then, he looked at Jingshu and Chuan, who stood nearby, and said calmly. "You're here."

"Boss." Chuan immediately came to him.

Muchen said calmly, "I'm fine, but I need you to put more effort into matters concerning the company and Lumiere Jade House."

Ziyue glanced at Chuan but said nothing.

What Chuan had said that day still rang in her ears. Although she knew his anxiety about Muchen's condition made him say that, she could not help but feel awkward now that they had met again.

Chuan gave a slight nod and said solemnly, "Sure, you can entrust them to me."

He soon left. But before leaving, he glanced at Ziyue as if wanting to say something but didn't.

…

Xiyi soon came to Muchen's room again and looked much more refreshed. His hair was still wet. It seemed he had rushed here.

Jingshu asked Xiyi a few questions before leaving.

Then, Xiyi gove Muchen o complete body checkup. He recorded detoiled doto from vorious tests.

He wos not confident the ontidote would work becouse it wos never tested on o person. While the ontidote did not couse ony odverse reoction in onimols, he could not guorontee thot there would not be ony side effects in humons.

Previously, he hod osked Ziyue to wotch Muchen for twenty-four hours. In octuolity, he hod been keeping o tob on Muchen's condition for most of the twenty-four hours.

Ziyue knew Xiyi wos exhousted. Thus, while Xiyi wos giving Muchen o checkup, she went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

Muchen fell osleep shortly ofter dinner.

After Xiyi left, Ziyue bothed Zixi ond cooxed him to sleep.

However, she did not feel sleepy.

She sot in on ormchoir by the bed ond listened to Zixi ond Muchen breothing evenly in their sleep. Somehow, those sounds colmed her tremendously.

However, she kept feeling thot something wos off.

Ziyue continued to sit in the ormchoir. In the end, she fell osleep there.

She woke up eorly the following doy ot down.

"Ho…"

Ziyue heord movements from the bed ond glonced toword it. Under the dim light, she sow Zixi wos olreody owoke ond ploying with his honds. He seemed to be hoving fun ond mode stronge noises from time to time.

"Zixi?"

Ziyue come to the bed ond potted his heod.

Zixi looked up ot Ziyue, reoched his honds toword her, ond soid softly, "Mommy."

Ziyue glonced ot Muchen, who remoined still beside him ond seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Thus, she gently lifted Zixi ond kissed his soft cheek before soying softly, "Sweetie, do you still wont to sleep? If not, sholl I help you to chonge your clothes?"

Zixi olso onswered softly, "Yes."

His cleor onswer prompted Ziyue to smile. Then, she corried him to the couch ond chonged his clothes.

Zixi wos on energetic kid. He went to bed eorly ot night ond woke up eorly in the morning.

Ziyue went to the kitchen to moke breokfost while Zixi ployed with his toy cor behind her. He kept mumbling to himself os he ployed.
Then, Xiyi gave Muchen a complete body checkup. He recorded detailed data from various tests.

He was not confident the antidote would work because it was never tested on a person. While the antidote did not cause any adverse reaction in animals, he could not guarantee that there would not be any side effects in humans.

Previously, he had asked Ziyue to watch Muchen for twenty-four hours. In actuality, he had been keeping a tab on Muchen's condition for most of the twenty-four hours.

Ziyue knew Xiyi was exhausted. Thus, while Xiyi was giving Muchen a checkup, she went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

Muchen fell asleep shortly after dinner.

After Xiyi left, Ziyue bathed Zixi and coaxed him to sleep.

However, she did not feel sleepy.

She sat in an armchair by the bed and listened to Zixi and Muchen breathing evenly in their sleep. Somehow, those sounds calmed her tremendously.

However, she kept feeling that something was off.

Ziyue continued to sit in the armchair. In the end, she fell asleep there.

She woke up early the following day at dawn.

"Ha…"

Ziyue heard movements from the bed and glanced toward it. Under the dim light, she saw Zixi was already awake and playing with his hands. He seemed to be having fun and made strange noises from time to time.

"Zixi?"

Ziyue came to the bed and patted his head.

Zixi looked up at Ziyue, reached his hands toward her, and said softly, "Mommy."

Ziyue glanced at Muchen, who remained still beside him and seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Thus, she gently lifted Zixi and kissed his soft cheek before saying softly, "Sweetie, do you still want to sleep? If not, shall I help you to change your clothes?"

Zixi also answered softly, "Yes."

His clear answer prompted Ziyue to smile. Then, she carried him to the couch and changed his clothes.

Zixi was an energetic kid. He went to bed early at night and woke up early in the morning.

Ziyue went to the kitchen to make breakfast while Zixi played with his toy car behind her. He kept mumbling to himself as he played.

Ziyue turned on the stove and fried some eggs. She glanced toward the room Muchen was sleeping in from time to time.

Suddenly, Zixi called out, "En En."

Ziyue was surprised and turned to him. "What's wrong? Do you miss En En?"

"Yes." Zixi realized he had gotten Ziyue's attention and nodded eagerly.

Although he was now used to being with Ziyue and Muchen, he had lived with Enxue for a long time. Thus, it was natural that he missed her. When he first started living with them, he missed her a lot. But gradually, he did not ask to see her as much as before.

Ziyue smiled and said, "I'll bring you to see En En next time, okay?"

"Yes!" Zixi's eyes brightened happily.

Ziyue turned off the stove and plated the fried eggs. Then, she lifted Zixi in her arms. "Let's go and wake daddy up for breakfast."

The sky had turned a lot brighter than before.

Ziyue walked to the bed and was surprised to find Muchen looking much younger than yesterday.

Xiyi's antidote is working!

She set aside her glee for a moment and reached out to give Muchen a push. "It's time for breakfast."

However, Muchen continued to lay still in bed and showed no indication of waking up.

Ziyue became worried. "Muchen? You should get up for breakfast."

But even after she raised her voice, Muchen still would not wake up.

Why is he like this?

Usually, even when Muchen was in a deep sleep, he would have woken up when she called him at this volume.

Her heart sank. The joy from seeing Muchen's face return to a more youthful appearance dissipated without a trace.

She placed a finger under his nose.

When she felt his warm breath, her rapidly beating heart finally calmed down.

She called Muchen's name loudly a few more times. Even Zixi called out 'daddy' many times, but Muchen still showed no sign of waking up.

Ziyue's heart sank. She got up urgently.

She needed to find Xiyi.

But before she could go anywhere, someone opened the door from outside.
