Marry Me Quick novel Chapter 741

Chapter 741 Happily Ever After

He glanced at Ziyue to confirm she was sound asleep before striding out of the room.

He skimmed through the news article – it was obviously fabricated. Initially, he thought someone exposed the incident about Ziyue being forcibly injected with drugs by Yige, but it turned out to be a nonsensical article with no credibility.

Fortunately, the article was released at midnight, so only a few had seen it.

Muchen made several calls and instructed his subordinates to handle the matter but was not rest assured, so he headed out too.

By the time he settled the matter and returned home, it was almost four in the morning. He tip-toed into the house and found that the bedroom light was on. His heart skipped a beat, worrying that Ziyue had seen the news.

He stood in the living room for a while before going upstairs. After entering the bedroom, he saw Ziyue scrolling through her phone.

Ziyue looked toward him when she heard the sound of the door opening.

"You went out? Where did you go in the middle of the night? I was about to call you…" She asked and put down her phone. She looked sleepy, and her voice was tinged with drowsiness.

Muchen was relieved. It looks like she has just woken up and isn't aware of the news.

The next day was their wedding. He didn't want her to be troubled on the happy day.

He walked over to kiss her and hugged her tightly.

Ziyue struggled slightly, so Muchen let go of her.

"You haven't told me where you went!" Ziyue completely sobered up.

Noticing Muchen was dressed formally rather than in pajamas, she was sure he had gone out.

Muchen stared at Ziyue briefly and hesitated upon remembering his promise to always be truthful to her.

He sat on the bed and said, "Would you believe it if I say I went out for a walk because I couldn't sleep?"

Ziyue was puzzled. "Why couldn't you fall asleep?"

Before Muchen could answer, she had a guess. "Are you nervous?"

Seeing Muchen's flushing cheeks, Ziyue stared curiously at him as if she saw something rare. "Are you really nervous?"

"Not really…" Perceiving Ziyue's doubtful gaze, Muchen had no choice but to be honest. "Slightly."

Ziyue laughed in spite of herself.

When she saw Muchen's stiff expression, she controlled herself and hugged him. "There, there. Hope you're feeling better now."

Muchen snorted arrogantly but quickly reached out to hug her back.

Neither of them felt sleepy – Ziyue had had enough sleep while Muchen was wide awake after staying up throughout the night.

Cuddling each other on the bed, the couple chatted aimlessly and dozed off for a while before sunrise.

…

The wedding day is the most important in a woman's life. When Ziyue sat in the dressing room, she finally felt the excitement and nervousness of being a bride.

"Mrs. Qin, your skin is so smooth. I can't tell you're a mother of a child." The makeup artist praised Ziyue while applying makeup for her.

Ziyue was delighted despite knowing the makeup artist said so to please her.

She replied with a smile, "Thank you. You're beautiful too."

The makeup artist smiled shyly, thinking Ziyue was friendly despite being the president's wife.

Previously, outsiders only knew about their divorce but didn't know Muchen had transferred all his assets to Ziyue. Little did they expect the couple to remarry half a year after they divorced.

Xia came into the room with a tray of food while humming a song.

She laid down the tray and took a piece of cake. Then, she sat down and ate the cake while observing Ziyue putting on makeup.

After staring at Ziyue for a moment, she suddenly tutted and commented, "It feels like the story of 'Beauty and the Beast'."

"Are you saying Muchen is a beast?" Ziyue glanced at Xia.

Xia alertly looked around the room and patted her chest when she realized Muchen wasn't around. "I didn't say that."

She was just feeling sentimental. Although Ziyue and Muchen had registered their marriage before, she only felt like Ziyue was truly getting married now that their wedding was happening.

Ziyue chuckled.

Just then, Zixi, who was dressed in a suit, skipped in.

"Mommy!" He held a bouquet of flowers in his hand. The suit fit him perfectly, and his hair was neatly combed.

Meanwhile, Ziyue's makeup was done. She carried Zixi and observed him carefully.

"You're so handsome today, like a little prince."

"You're beautiful, Mommy, like a little princess."

Ziyue smiled. This boy used to be taciturn; since when did he learn to fawn over others?

Before Ziyue could say something, Zixi added, "The little prince and little princess live happily ever after in fairy tales."

Suddenly, someone carried Zixi and put him on the ground.

Ziyue lifted her head to see Muchen's striking face.

Muchen looked at Zixi and uttered tauntingly, "I can't believe you're still reading fairy tales at this age, like a little girl."

At this age? But everyone says I'm a kid… Zixi was confused.

Xia was sheepish due to her remark about Muchen just now. She pointed at the food on the tray and said, "Ziyue, please have some first. It might be late before you have a chance to eat later."

Then, she slipped away with Zixi. Zixi was reluctant to leave but was pulled away by Xia.

Muchen gazed at Ziyue carefully and smiled. "You're beautiful today."

"Only today?" Ziyue asked coquettishly.

Muchen's smile didn't waver. "I can say it every day if you like my compliment."

As a single lady, the makeup artist was awkward to witness the couple's display of affection. So, she silently retreated and left the room in perplexity. They seem to be very close to each other; why did they divorce previously?

Outsiders might have many doubts, but the parties involved didn't have to answer their questions.
