Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 577

Chapter 577

Xiyi was momentarily startled when he saw Muchen.

He never thought Muchen would look for him.

He took off his gloves and turned to look at Muchen. "What are you doing here, Mr. Qin?"

He looked at the time carelessly and wrinkled his brows slightly.

What is Muchen doing here instead of eating dinner at home?

In any case, he didn't believe that Muchen dropped by for no reason.

Xiyi sat across from Muchen. He raised his brows slightly when he saw Muchen's cloudy expression.

Muchen thought of something, and his brows furrowed tightly. After a moment, he asked, "Did you tell Ziyue?"

"What do you mean?"

After that, Xiyi came to his senses and understood what Muchen meant.

Xiyi had known Muchen for years. Muchen didn't like to speak, and he never explained himself when he did. An average person wouldn't be able to understand him.

Xiyi nodded solemnly. "Yes. I told her."

Muchen was referring to the side effects of the K1LU73 antidote.

With Muchen's question, Xiyi knew why he came here.

"How are you feeling now?" Xiyi asked. He got up and fiddled with some apparatuses, wanting to examine Muchen.

The side effects of the K1LU73 antidote were unusual. It could affect the mental state.

Muchen was a proud man through and through. The antidote's side effects had affected his emotions. He didn't think it was anything to be proud of.

Therefore, when Muchen didn't say anything of his own accord, Xiyi didn't ask to examine Muchen.

How are you feeling?

Muchen said expressionlessly, "I killed Shichu."

Xiyi had never cared for gossip. He didn't know about their grudges, but 'Shichu' sounded familiar.

He furrowed his brows and thought about it momentarily before it came to him. Isn't he Mrs. Qin's childhood friend?

Shichu is supposedly a doctor as well.

Muchen used to pamper his wife. Now, he didn't care about her feelings and killed Shichu…

He was more heartless than he used to be.

"Mrs. Qin must be sad." Xiyi moved the apparatuses away before he turned to look at Muchen.

Muchen looked at him coldly. "She hates me now."

Although Xiyi never feared Muchen, he still shivered a little after being suddenly swept by Muchen's bone-chilling gaze.

He took a different approach. "Why did you kill him?"

"He was the leader of K7, and the K1LU73 virus started because of him. He hadn't given up on Ziyue either. What was wrong about me killing him?"

Muchen's last question sounded slightly inquisitive. It seemed like he was trying to get Xiyi to empathize with him.

Xiyi didn't say anything for a long time.

When he finally absorbed the surprising news, he nodded. "Nothing. You didn't do anything wrong."

He had been by Muchen's side and saw things like these happen, so he could accept it.

But…

"To you, he had to die. But he's important to Mrs. Qin." Xiyi wasn't afraid of angering Muchen. He said what came to mind.

Sure enough, Muchen narrowed his eyes dangerously at the next moment. He hurled a glass beside him fiercely. "Important person? I'm the most important person to her."

"Shichu and Mrs. Qin grew up together since they were young. Even if she had no more feelings for him, she wouldn't want to see him die."

"What feelings does she have for Shichu? She's my woman. It's enough for her to have feelings for me!" Muchen's expression grew darker, and his tone was serious.

"That's true." Xiyi adjusted his glasses. "So, why did you come and look for me today, Mr. Qin?"

Muchen paused. "Since I'm right, why does she hate me?"

"Because other than being your wife, she has other identities, friends, and people she cares for…"

"The only identity she needs is being my wife. How is anything else important?"

When Muchen thought of how Ziyue had cried for Shichu, he couldn't quite restrain the anger in his heart.

Xiyi didn't say anything.

It was as though he gained first-hand knowledge of the K1LU73 antidote's side effects.

It truly changed a person's temperament. Muchen was like a completely different person.

In the past, Muchen was thorough and cautious. He would never say such unreasonable and tyrannical words.

"Since you're here, let me examine you." Xiyi didn't want to argue with him.

"No need. Just give me a lotion for bruises." Muchen furrowed his brows. A reflective gaze flickered across his eyes. He thought of something else.

On the way here, he was doubtful and wondered if he had been affected by the side effects of the K1LU73 antidote. But Xiyi also said that he wasn't in the wrong.

Since that was the case, he didn't want to be examined.

Upon hearing it, Xiyi sighed ever so slightly before he grabbed some lotion for Muchen.

…

After Muchen left, Ke came to the room with food.

At the time, Ziyue had showered and changed into pajamas.

"Thank you."

When she saw Ke send food in for her, she didn't turn it down. She thanked Ke and started eating.

It was an issue between her and Muchen. She didn't want to trouble others.

Although it was hard for her to accept Shichu's death, Ke cared about her. There was no need to upset Ke.

When Ke saw Ziyue eat, her heart relaxed a little.

"You've lost weight. You should eat more." Ke sat at one side and beamed at Ziyue.

Ziyue pursed her lips. She wanted to say something and hesitated momentarily before she hung her head again.

Ke was a woman, and she was attentive. Even if Ziyue didn't say anything, she knew what Ziyue wanted to ask.

"I've asked Chuan. Everything had ended when he returned, and he only saw Shichu being carried away. Chuan asked some subordinates and discovered that the bullet had hit Shichu right in the chest, but Shichu was still breathing. Chuan couldn't confirm if Shichu really died."

She had also asked some of the subordinates who were at the scene. Although Shichu had still been breathing, he couldn't have survived.

But Ziyue and Muchen were in a deadlock. By saying such things to Ziyue, perhaps Ke could ease the tension in their relationship a little.

No matter what, they couldn't be in a deadlock about Shichu's death for the rest of their lives.

She could understand Ziyue, but in her heart, she was on Muchen's side.

After all, Muchen was her and her brother's savior. They had been working together for so many years and were basically family.

Muchen cared deeply for Ziyue, so Ke and Chuan had to help Muchen.

"Is everything you're saying true?" When Ziyue heard what Ke said, she couldn't be bothered to eat. She put down the cutlery in her hands and looked at Ke in astonishment.
