Marry Me Quick

Chapter 81

“It’s fine. I’ve been wearing it for years. It’s still working, and I’ve gotten used to it.” Su Ziyue looked at her wrist and smiled radiantly. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Lu Shichu couldn’t help but smile and reach out to pat her head.

Sitting at a side, Qin Muchen narrowed his eyes and stared gloomily at their intimate interaction. Then, he walked over and wrapped an arm around Su Ziyue’s shoulder while saying in a frosty voice, “I didn’t expect that you’re an old friend of my wife.”

Upon hearing the word ‘wife’, Lu Shichu looked surprised. He then turned to look at Su Ziyue, seemingly trying to get her affirmation. Su Ziyue didn’t expect that Qin Muchen would say that, so she didn’t know how to react at that moment. Under Lu Shichu’s gaze, she bowed her head.

Lu Shichu took it as her admitting it. Although he was extremely astonished, he knew this wasn’t the time to talk about it. Therefore, after packing his things and saying a few words, he left.

Su Ziyue walked him to the door to send him off. After watching him leave, she was about to turn back when she heard Qin Muchen’s voice from behind her. “He’s already gone. Are you that reluctant to let him go?”

Upon hearing his tone, Su Ziyue sensed that something wasn’t right. But Qin Muchen was right that she was reluctant to let Lu Shichu go. “It’s been years since I’ve met Shichu. I’m indeed sad to see him go.” Su Ziyue sighed, mixed emotions on her face.

Shichu? What an intimate form of addressing him, and she was even sad that he left. Qin Muchen took a few deep breaths before finally suppressing the rage in his heart. After giving Su Ziyue a cold glance, he turned to go upstairs.

“Qin—” Su Ziyue wanted to call him, but she swallowed her words after looking at his indifferent back.

She then turned to look at Beef, who was in the cage. “Your father has a bad temper.”

Beef glanced at her before lowering its head and continued to sleep. Su Ziyue couldn’t help but mutter softly, “Your temper is just as bad…”

…

Too much had happened tonight, so Su Ziyue was exhausted. Qin Muchen must have gone to sleep since he went upstairs. Should she stay here overnight? She suddenly recalled what had happened when she came to this villa previously and blushed. But then, she recalled that she and Qin Muchen had made things clear, so he probably wouldn’t do anything to her. With that thought, she went upstairs as well.

Once she got upstairs, she bumped into Qin Muchen who was walking out from the bedroom in a bathrobe.

“You’re not asleep yet?” Looking at Qin Muchen’s poker face, he somehow felt unfamiliar to her, and she even felt a tinge of fear. But as soon as she finished her sentence, Qin Muchen turned and directly closed the door.

She was speechless. Why did she feel that Qin Muchen was throwing a tantrum? Having no idea why Qin Muchen was angry, Su Ziyue could only find a room beside the master bedroom to sleep. When she opened the closet, she realized that it was empty, and she didn’t have clothes either. What should she do? Should she knock on Qin Muchen’s door again? That was the only solution.

She walked to Qin Muchen’s door and knocked on it. He probably wouldn’t be so angry to the point of refusing to open the door for her, right?

Half a minute later, Qin Muchen finally came to open the door. Seeing Su Ziyue standing at the door, a dim light flashed across his eyes while subtle anticipation could be heard in his voice. “What?”

His eyes were scorching, causing Su Ziyue to bow her head in uneasiness. “Can you lend me your clothes? I don’t have clothes to change into…”

Qin Muchen’s face sank, and he slammed the door shut. After a few seconds, the door was opened again. Before Su Ziyue could see Qin Muchen clearly, a shirt was hurled at her, and it landed right on her head. After Su Ziyue took down the shirt from her head, the door was closed again.

Su Ziyue frowned, confused. Did he regret saving her after recalling those harsh words she said previously? The more she thought about it, the more convinced she was that her suspicions were right. She then brought that shirt back to her room.

After bathing, she changed into that shirt and washed her bra, thinking that she would wear it tomorrow. However, with this weather, it wouldn’t dry even if it was left until the next morning. Yet, she didn’t dare to knock on Qin Muchen’s door again. She tip-toed and searched around. Fortunately, she found a dryer on the first floor. After she dried her bra and went to go upstairs, she ran into Qin Muchen, who was walking down.

Su Ziyue tried to hide her bra in her arms while greeting him, “Qin Muchen.”

He didn’t look sleepy, so it seemed like he wasn’t asleep. He probably came down for a glass of water. Qin Muchen didn’t expect that she would still be downstairs at such a late hour. His eyes wandered to her fair legs.

He had given her a black shirt. Since her skin was fair and her height was only slightly above his shoulders, the black shirt looked loose and wide on her, making her seem even more slender and skinny. That black shirt and her fair skin. Qin Muchen could not look away.

Finally, he turned his head away. Feeling that his throat was dry, he lifted his hand to his neck and realized that he didn’t have a necktie on. His expression sullen, he asked coldly, “Why are you wandering around instead of sleeping?”

“Nothing.” Su Ziyue bowed her head, trying to hide her bra deeper in her arms.

Qin Muchen realized that she was hiding something in her arms too, but he didn’t ask about it and just continued to walk down the stairs.

Without looking at him, Su Ziyue lifted her feet to walk up. When she walked past him, she sensibly shrank to the side, keeping a distance from him. Unfortunately, her slippers were too large, so she missed a step on the stairs. Slipping, she fell backward.

“Ahhh!” Su Ziyue screamed and spread her arms, trying to grab something, and the bra in her arms flew off.

Fortunately, Qin Muchen had sharp eyes and reacted fast. He swiftly caught her, and with a pull, she landed in his arms. Out of reflex, Su Ziyue wrapped her arms around his waist and let out a long sigh of relief, the fear still lingering. Then, she suddenly realized that she was hugging Qin Muchen’s waist. Recalling her embarrassing moment when she almost fell down just now, she instantly let go like she got electrocuted.

However, Qin Muchen’s arms on her waist became even tighter, so she couldn’t leave his embrace. As such, she tried to push him. “Qin Muchen…” Her voice still had some lingering fear, so it was slightly trembling. It pulled at Qin Muchen’s heart, making his heart race.

Their eyes met. Su Ziyue’s eyes still had a trace of fear, while Qin Muchen’s eyes were deep, seemingly burning with flames. The large hand on her waist felt scorching hot, and only a thin layer of fabric separated them.

Qin Muchen didn’t utter a word while Su Ziyue opened her mouth and struggled slightly. “L-Let me go… Mm—” Her remaining words were blocked by a deep kiss.

Qin Muchen’s hand ran through her hair before gripping the back of her head. His hot lips sealed her mouth while his other hand grazed her waist before it roamed naughtily. It only stayed on her waist for a few seconds before it instinctively slid down. His kiss was deep and passionate, while his breath was heavy and impatient.
