Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 651

Chapter 651 Just for Tonight

Muchen's smile remained plastered on his face as he instructed, "Sit properly."

Ziyue had to stabilize herself by putting her hands on the hood.

Muchen slowly let go of his hands when he saw her seated steadily.

He returned to the car to turn off the headlights and grab his coat. After he closed the doors, he went to the front again and sat beside Ziyue.

He wrapped the coat around her back and assured her, "I'm sure there are stars tonight."

As they sat down, Ziyue felt her eyelids become heavier.

She yawned and laid her head on Muchen's shoulders. "Why do you want to see the stars today? There isn't any today. I've checked the weather forecast. It's going to rain tomorrow."

It was going to rain, so there wasn't a chance of seeing the stars that night, but she still drove him up here as it was rare for him to act this "recklessly." He seemed like he was in a jovial mood, so she couldn't bear to reject him.

The things she could fulfill for him were too little. When presented with a rare opportunity where he innocently requested to see the stars under the influence of alcohol, how could she reject him?

Many young couples enjoy spending their time up here. But despite being a Friday, no one was around due to the weather.

The only sound that filled the silence was the occasional rustle of the wind.

Ziyue leaned on him, her eyes slowly closing as she caved into her exhaustion that piled up over the night. That was when she heard a confident voice from Muchen, saying, "They will appear."

"If you say so…" Ziyue tried her best to stay awake, but her eyelids were getting heavier as time passed. After a while, she finally said to him, "I'm really tired."

"You're not allowed to fall asleep." Muchen was demanding and unbothered about her situation.

It caught her by surprise, and she shuddered away some of her sleepiness. She couldn't see Muchen's face clearly in the darkness, but she knew he was observing her.

"Why don't you let me take a nap?"

"You have to see the stars."

Ziyue was reluctant to repeat to him again that the stars would not appear tonight.

She was worn out, but she would get woken up by Muchen whenever she started dozing off.

Finally, she jumped down from the hood to walk while fighting away the drowsiness.

It was pitch black around her. Ziyue extended her arms out to fumble around in the dark before she caught onto his hands. She could sense that Muchen was still wide awake. However, she still couldn't understand why he insisted on seeing the stars.

"Muchen," called Ziyue.

She whispered, but her voice was amplified in the darkness.

She couldn't see Muchen's face as he was looking down. His voice was emotionless as he replied, "Stay by my side for one night. Just for tonight. I don't feel like sleeping tonight."

The realization finally dawned upon her after she regarded his words. He had purposely acted drunk from the start. And he wasn't here to see the stars; he didn't want to fall asleep.

As she mulled over the reason, she couldn't help but ask him, "Why don't you want to sleep?"

From what she could recall, she knew that Muchen had insomnia in the past when he found out she had suffered a "miscarriage."

However, she was confident he no longer had the same struggles recently.

She had the habit of waking up in the middle of the night to have a glass of water, and she would see him sleeping soundly by her side every time she woke up.

Moreover, he was having such a good time today.

She was struggling to figure out what could be the reason when he finally replied, "Because I'm happy."

"Alright. If that's the case, let's talk about random things." Ziyue attempted to jump into the car but couldn't get up despite exerting her full strength.

She felt embarrassed and wanted to erase Muchen's memories of her failed attempt.

She could hear a faint giggle coming from Muchen. After that, she heard rustling sounds beside her, and within a split second, she was carried into the car.

Muchen swiftly got up and sat by her side again.
