Marry Me Quick

Chapter 184

Su Ziyue’s unit was located on the seventh floor. Although An Xia had quite good vision, she could only guess based

on her intuition because the sky was getting dark at the moment.

The only thing she was sure was that the figure was a man. Dressing in full black, he was seen looking up at the sky

every now and then from where he stood, looking very sorrowful.

An Xia stayed by the window for a long while until Su Ziyue called for her. “An Xia, come on and have a taste of the

fish dish I just made.”

“Okay, I’m coming.” An Xia twisted her head to give the figure standing below the lamp post one last glance,

thinking that she was probably imagining things.

As busy a man as Mr. Qin, why would he do something so meaningless?

…

Although she did not think the man was Mr. Qin, she still found an excuse to persuade Su Ziyue to head downstairs

after dinner.

“You’ll take out the trash while I do the dishes.”

After glancing at the dustbin which was full, Su Ziyue tied it up and told An Xia, “I’m not bringing the keys with me

so you’ll have to open the door for me later.”

“Okay,” An Xia responded to her without turning around.

Su Ziyue then took the trash downstairs. When she was on her way back after getting rid of the trash, she bumped

into Li Jingqi who was walking toward her.

Su Ziyue had no idea what she had done to offend her again to deserve the icy snort from her as soon as she saw

her. “Do you guys really have to take out trash together? I’ve never seen a couple so clingy with each other. Mind

you, couples who love to show their affection to the public tend to break up faster!”

After that, she stole a glance at somewhere behind her and stared at Su Ziyue disdainfully before walking away

with her hips swaying left and right.

When Su Ziyue looked in the direction where Li Jingqi had just glanced, she immediately saw a pair of dark and

gloomy eyes.

It belonged to Qin Muchen.

Dumbfounded, she stood rooted to the spot.

Standing there somewhat apprehensively, she was at a loss of what to do at the moment.

Qin Muchen stared at her unflinchingly. After pausing for one second, he strode off in her direction.

Even though it was winter now, he was only wearing a suit with a shirt inside; his full and pure black attire gave him

a stern and somber look.

At that juncture, a wind came blowing their way, causing Su Ziyue to pull the standing collar of her down jacket

closer to herself to cover her chin.

When he got closer to her, she asked with her eyes blinking, “Why are you here?”

Qin Muchen, who was wearing a poker-face, answered, “I dropped my keys to the mansion at your place.”

His voice sounded slightly aloof but he did not hold back from giving her a thorough once-over.

Her body was wrapped in a thick and heavy down jacket with no special design and her long wavy hair was tied

back in a ponytail. As her chin was covered by the down jacket, only her soft and tender face was revealed, and the

eyelashes which covered her watery eyes fluttered as though she was very nervous.

She looked more mellow and soft than usual at the moment.

Under his stare, Su Ziyue couldn’t resist but gulp before mumbling softly, “Oh, did you?”

From what Su Ziyue knew, he had always been a steady man and he was not the sort of person who would be

careless enough to drop the keys to their house.

Qin Muchen did not answer her question.

After giving it a thought, Su Ziyue questioned, “So, do you want to go and look for it yourself or do you want me to

go and look for it and bring it down to you?”

He didn’t answer her and just walked ahead of her.

Tucking both hands into her pockets, she followed him with her head held low and at the same time, she

deliberately kept a distance between them.

Qin Muchen turned sideways slightly and noticed her behavior; his eyes turned bleak but he did not make any

comment.

…

They then made a peaceful journey back to the unit.

When Su Ziyue went on to press the doorbell, she explained herself after noticing the impatience in his face, “I

didn’t bring the keys with me because An Xia is here.”

Qin Muchen did not respond to her when the door was pulled open by An Xia from inside.

An Xia was not surprised to see the two figures, one taller than the other, standing outside.

Yet, she still reflexively shuddered at the sight of Qin Muchen, who was wearing too little for the weather and

standing there with a deadpan look.

“Hi, Mr. Qin! Were you passing by? Come on in and take a seat.” All smiles, An Xia greeted Qin Muchen before

quickly pulling Su Ziyue, who was not looking too happy, inside.

Qin Muchen merely cast a frigid glance at An Xia, who was behaving like the owner of the place, before stepping

into the unit.

Shrinking into herself in fear, An Xia still bit the bullet and put herself in front of Su Ziyue.

Although Mr. Qin was a very intimidating man, she needed to help Su Ziyue because she was her best friend.

In fact, she had already spotted him from the windows just now.

At that time, she had only made a wild guess and she had never thought it would be him.

Noticing how listless and dejected Su Ziyue appeared while she was standing next to Qin Muchen, An Xia was sure

that he must have bullied her. Thinking that Qin Muchen was here to make peace with Su Ziyue, she had decided to

create a chance for them to bump into each other just now, which was a decision she regretted making now.

Su Ziyue patted An Xia’s hands and shook her head at her before approaching Qin Muchen and saying, “I have no

idea where you put the keys. You’re free to look around yourself.”

With that, she switched on the television and pulled An Xia over to take a seat at the sofa.

Qin Muchen frowned.

Had he just been ignored?

He turned around to cast Su Ziyue a glimpse with his brows raised before making his way straight to the bedroom

where he removed his suit jacket and started changing the bedsheets.

Although Su Ziyue was watching the television together with An Xia, her attention was still on him.

Assuming that he was only looking for the keys, she did not overthink when he was seen flipping the bedsheets.

It was An Xia whose curiosity was piqued. “What is he looking for?”

Su Ziyue answered her listlessly, “Keys.”

“Oh.” Cautiously, An Xia cast another glance at the bedroom before pressing on, “In that case, why is he looking for

it on the bed?”

Su Ziyue was left stumped and speechless by her question.

With her lips pursed, An Xia put on a grin before taking another look at Qin Muchen. “What are you guys arguing

over this time? Mr. Qin doesn’t seem like he is genuinely angry because he wouldn’t have come all the way here to

get the keys then. He can always ask Nan Chuan to get it done for him.”

An Xia’s words made a lot of sense. If it was any other day, Su Ziyue would definitely be convinced by her to patch

things up with Qin Muchen.

However, this time was slightly different to all the previous arguments they had.

“Yes.” Su Ziyue only nodded without making any comment.

Thinking that she was convinced, An Xia patted her shoulder soothingly and said, “Alright, I’m off then.”

“No, you should stay since it’s late.” When Su Ziyue was pulling her back, she saw Qin Muchen walking out of the

bedroom.

With the suit jacket removed, he was now only wearing a thin shirt with his sleeves rolled up which added some

warmth to him.

“Did you find it?” she asked.

“Nope.” While he was talking, he shot a look at An Xia which was an obvious signal for her to go.

Yet, it went unnoticed by Su Ziyue who was eager for him to leave. “Tonight…”

Speaking at a slow speed, he cut her off by saying, “I’m spending the night here and I just changed the sheets.”
