Chapter 716 Don&apost Think of Leaving This Room
Yunan looked over, and his gaze casually swept across Ziyue and Muchen.
Ziyue glanced at Jingshu, and he responded with a frustrated stare.
Yunan had called Jingshu, but the latter told the former that he was eating in Lumiere Jade House and that they would talk later. However, Yunan came to Lumiere Jade House instead.
The atmosphere in the room was slightly strange.
Jingshu didn't want the air to be awkward, so he deliberately tried to make conversation.
However, Muchen and Yunan ignored his attempts at small talk, and Ziyue wasn't in the mood, so only Xia answered him.
Jingshu felt a headache coming.
His brother must have been crazy. Besides Muchen, Jingshu also noticed that Yunan kept looking in Ziyue's direction.
He was staring at Ziyue unblinkingly.
But Muchen didn't lose his cool.
Jingshu finished his meal fearfully and thought it was safe when he suddenly heard Yunan say something baffling.
"Are you still living with Miss Su, Mr. Qin?"
Jingshu wrinkled his brows and looked at Yunan. "Bro!"
"I don't have bad intentions. I'm just curious. After all, you've terminated your relationship, haven't you?" Yunan's words were more surprising than usual.
Ziyue was surprised. Until now, only Yichen and Ke knew about her and Muchen's divorce.
Too many things had happened during this time, and she hadn't had time to mention it to Jingshu and Xia. Furthermore, she couldn't say something like that out of the blue.
Moreover, their divorce was temporary.
She pondered for a moment. In all likelihood, Bessalyn had told Yunan about her and Muchen's divorce.
Yunan clearly had evil intentions for suddenly appearing here. Jingshu would have never invited Yunan on his own accord. Yunan's words just now were also meant to provoke. It was evident that he harbored hostile intentions.
Ziyue was no longer polite with Yunan and didn't bother with formalities.
"Mr. Bai, our living situation and marital status has nothing to do with you. I'm sure your job isn't related to this."
Perhaps Yunan wasn't angry because Ziyue had never been polite to him.
It was frightful that he had grown accustomed to such behavior of hers.
"Your words are rather indifferent, aren't they, Miss Su? We've worked with each other and known each other for a long time. Can't I be concerned for you as a friend? Moreover…"
Yunan suddenly paused and looked at her meaningfully.
An awful premonition rose in Ziyue's heart.
The next moment, she heard Yunan slowly say, "As your admirer, Miss Su, I'm very concerned about anything related to you."
When Ziyue heard it, her first reaction was to look at Muchen.
His solemn face was dark and cold.
Ziyue's expression changed as well. She reached out to hold his hand, and he grabbed hers tightly.
Jingshu was about to go mad. What the heck is going on?
Is my brother going to push my best friend into a corner?
No. More importantly, how could Muchen and Ziyue get a divorce?
When he sensed that the atmosphere in the private room was on the verge of erupting, he turned and saw Zixi, who was sitting obediently in a children's highchair.
"Go out if you want to talk about it. Zixi is still here. Don't frighten the child."
As he spoke, he signaled Xia with a glance.
Xia knew what to do. She picked Zixi up and walked out.
At the door, Xia turned and glanced at everyone worriedly.
Ziyue saw that Muchen was about to snap at any time and felt uneasy.
No matter how much Muchen changed, she naturally couldn't abandon him.
She wouldn't have been so worried if only she and Jingshu were in the room.
But Yunan was different. He was an outsider and highly perceptive.
Ziyue couldn't let Muchen explode at that moment.
She suddenly stood up and sneered. "Get to the point, Mr. Bai. Beating around the bush only shows your despicable character. Do you feel at a disadvantage if you admit your motives? You found out Enxue returned to Yunzhou City, so you want information about her, right? Do you have to go this far?"
Yunan's expression changed, but he miraculously didn't get angry.
"What do you want to find out from us? Be honest with us. Otherwise, we won't tell you anything even if we know everything."
She didn't give Yunan a chance to react. She turned to Muchen after that and said gently, "Let's go home."
This entirely different attitude relaxed Muchen's expression. He loved it when Ziyue was indifferent to other men and only smiled and treated him gently.
It satisfied his possessive desire over Ziyue.
"Mm," Muchen answered indifferently. After he got up, he glanced at Yunan indifferently. His lips curved into an unbelievably taunting smile.
So what if Ziyue and I aren't legally husband and wife now?
Not any random person can come between us.
Yunan's face was tense. When Ziyue and Muchen's figures disappeared outside the door, he violently slammed the table with his fist.
The table shook viciously. A glass fell onto the floor and shattered.
Jingshu silently glanced at the smashed glass. He thought about it and said, "Bro, although I'm close to Muchen, you still have to pay for the glass. It costs around a few hundred. After all, a debt is a debt."
Yunan was dumbstruck in rage. He pointed at Jingshu for a long time before he said, "You better be prepared. Dad is investigating your affairs in Yunzhou City these days. You better deal with your secretary girlfriend."
After that, he snorted coldly and left.
Jinghsu's expression changed slightly when he heard Yunan mention 'Dad.'
Xia opened the door and saw Jingshu's poor complexion. She walked to him in small steps. "Did you argue with your brother? You don't look well."
Jingshu reached out to pinch her cheeks. "With his nasty temper, arguing with him is beneath me."
"So why… Mmph…"
Jingshu was feeling slightly restless. Before she could speak, he held her face and kissed her.
…
On the way back to Cloud Bay, Ziyue didn't say a word to Muchen.
Zixi sat obediently in the child car seat and seemed to be daydreaming.
Back at the villa, Ziyue handed Zixi to the servants before going to the study room with Muchen.
Muchen realized what Ziyue was going to discuss with him. When she shut the door, he turned and wanted to leave.
She wanted to talk to him, but he didn't.
Ziyue had long expected that it wouldn't be easy for Muchen to have an honest conversation with her, so she stood before the door and blocked it. "Qin Muchen, don't think of leaving this room if you don't clarify certain issues today."
