Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 731

Chapter 731 His Crimes Are Punishable with Death

Time passed as they waited for Ziyue to wake up.

Winter turned to spring. Then spring gave way to summer.

Meanwhile, Gricy's case finally concluded after more than half a year of trials.

Yunan came to see Muchen the day the case was completed.

It was rare to see Yunan not dressed in a suit. He wore casual clothes this time and seemed relaxed.

He and Muchen went to a café near the hospital and sat facing each other. Then, Yunan said, "The case is completed."

Muchen replied calmly, "Congratulations."

He knew Yunan was about to be promoted again.

Yunan arched his eyebrows in disagreement and took a sip of coffee. He thought briefly and wanted to say something but stopped himself.

"I'll return to the hospital if there's nothing else."

Muchen glanced at his watch impatiently. A few days ago, Xiyi said Ziyue's condition had improved tremendously. He believed she might wake up any time.

Coincidentally, Zixi's school was closed for the summer holiday, so Muchen did not have to leave the hospital.

Yunan could not resist snorting and said, "You have been staying in the hospital for half a year. Are you addicted to living there?"

Muchen ignored him and stood up without a word. Seeing that Muchen was about to leave, Yunan said urgently, "Lu Shichu. You know him, right?"

Muchen paused upon hearing the familiar name. He glanced at Yunan, indicating that he should speak.

Yunan crossed his arms. Who says Muchen's mood has improved significantly?

He is no different from before and is as rude as usual!

"Shichu joined Gricy for many years. I believe you and Ziyue knew about this. He has done so much for Gricy over the years. We can easily charge him with any of his crimes, which will be enough to sentence him to death."

After saying that, Yunan looked at Muchen attentively, waiting for his reply.

Muchen's expression remained calm. Yunan could not ascertain his emotions.

After a while, Muchen finally replied, "Shichu never wanted to do those things and is not evil. Furthermore, he was the leader of K7 Pharmaceutical Team, meaning he has immense knowledge and abilities in the medical field."

One of the benefits of conversation between intelligent people was that one did not have to say much, and the other would understand the message.

Muchen's words were clear. Gricy forced Shichu to commit all those crimes. Moreover, his immense knowledge and skills made him valuable to the authorities. Therefore, he should be treated with leniency.

In other words, Muchen was defending Shichu.

It seemed so unbelievable that Yunan wondered if he had misinterpreted Muchen's words.

"If my information is accurate, Shichu is your rival in love! He is Ziyue's childhood friend and is close to her. Why are you helping him?"

Yunan looked genuinely confused. He could not figure out what Muchen was thinking.

Could those people be right? Has Muchen turned kind and improved his temper?

I do not believe such nonsense.

Muchen looked at the time again. Then, he glanced at Yunan and replied indifferently, "Those who were never in love cannot understand."

Yunan raised his coffee cup to drink from it. However, Muchen's words so astounded him that he dropped the cup on the table, shattering it.

Thankfully, there was only a little coffee left. The tablecloth absorbed it and prevented it from dripping to the floor.

"How would you know whether I've fallen in love? Moreover, who are you to talk about love?"

"You never loved anyone. You only ever had bedmates."

Yunan wanted to retort, but Muchen had already left.

His expression turned livid. He stood to leave, but a waitress stopped him fearfully. "Sir… Will you be paying now?"

Yunan looked at the trembling waitress and asked with annoyance. "Why are you shivering?"

The waitress flinched and replied, "I'm not…"

Yunan was not in the mood to continue the conversation. He took out some money to pay the bill and left straight away.

Am I that scary?

But why isn't Qingyou scared of me?

As a military officer with outstanding achievements, it was not his habit to appear gentle. Moreover, he looked fierce and intimidating whenever he was serious. His looks could frighten a young lady.

…

Shichu came to the hospital two days later.

He used to come by frequently, only to look at Ziyue from afar. Muchen never bothered to talk to him then.

Later, Shichu was under investigation for his involvement in Gricy. He ceased to visit the hospital when the authorities restricted his movements.

Shichu was still in a wheelchair and looked unwell when he came to visit this time.

However, he did not come empty-handed but brought a remote control car. It was from an expensive toy brand.
