Chapter 210
Walking in the yard, Su Ziyue still couldn’t feel at ease.
The three families in Yunzhou City had dominated the scene for years.
But, the Mu family had fallen in such a short time. Everyone was guessing who was behind it, but Su Youcheng, that
old sly fox, must have quickly thought of the president of LK.
Because in the whole Yunzhou City, no one had this power other than the president of LK.
That was why Su Youcheng hurriedly sought her out.
Su Ziyue felt that she had become more wicked because she had learnt to use Qin Muchen to threaten people. That
made her feel guilty.
She smiled self-mockingly and bowed her head while walking out.
Honk!
The honk of a car rang. Su Ziyue raised her head and saw a familiar black Bentley parked on the opposite side of
the road.
It was Qin Muchen’s car.
The next second, Qin Muchen opened the door and got out of the car.
After a pause, Su Ziyue walked toward him. “Why are you still here?”
“I was waiting for you to go home together.” While replying, Qin Muchen opened the door of the passenger seat
and motioned for her to get in.
In the car, Su Ziyue hesitated, and at last, she told him what Su Youcheng had said, including how she used him.
She told him everything.
Su Ziyue looked straight ahead. “I’m sorry I used you.”
“There’s no need to be sorry about that. I gave you the answer to this question a long time ago.” Qin Muchen
looked to the front with full concentration, the emotions in his voice unidentifiable.
I didn’t marry you with a sincere heart. I’m just using you!
It’s my honor to be used by you.

That was what he had said to her when he moved into her small apartment a long time ago.
What happened that day was still etched in her mind.
Su Ziyue finally couldn’t help but look up at him.
Qin Muchen paid attention to the road ahead. He was extremely steady with his driving, just like his character.
Hastily, Su Ziyue turned her head back, her heart a mess.
She really wanted to ask him what he wanted from her.
But, she didn’t have the courage.
It felt like after she found out that he didn’t love her, she lost the courage to talk to him about insignificant things.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to speak; she just didn’t dare to.
After all, no matter what she said, she couldn’t deceive her own heart because she knew that she had feelings for
him.
Silence took over the car again.
The following days were dull and common.
Su Ziyue didn’t request to sleep in different rooms, but although they slept on the same bed, he didn’t touch her.
She wasn’t sure if Qin Muchen was concerned about her unrecovered wound or he had other reasons.
He took great care of her meticulously and attentively.
However, they talked lesser and lesser to each other every day.
Until the day before Su Yige and Gong Zeyang’s marriage, when Xu Youran’s case was heard.
Waking up early, Qin Muchen walked out after changing his clothes and asked Su Ziyue, “Xu Youran’s case is being
heard in court today. Do you want to attend?”
Su Ziyue was stunned for a while, but recalling that diary, she nodded.
No matter what, she was once someone she knew.
Xu Youran’s actions were indeed selfish, causing her to gain infamy and get chased out of the country by the Su
family at the tender age of 18.
Although she was in great despair at that time, at least An Xia believed her.
Now that the past had been raked up, at least Qin Muchen believed her.
The people she cared about believed in her, and that was enough. Those criticisms from unrelated people couldn’t
hurt her.
When she and Qin Muchen arrived at the court, surprisingly, none of the Su family came.
Su Ziyue was astonished. Habitually, she turned to look at Qin Muchen when she couldn’t understand something.
Qin Muchen hugged her beside him with one arm, carefully protecting her.
Noticing her gaze, he said calmly, “The case was exposed by the media before the Su family did anything. Since the
Su family can’t do anything about it, it’s natural that none of them came.”
Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue nodded.
That made sense.
However, Su Yige came anyway.
Right before the court session began, Su Yige slowly came in.
Wearing a black coat, her face was pale. She looked haggard, completely unlike someone who was going to get
married tomorrow.
Seemingly sensing Su Ziyue’s gaze, Su Yige abruptly raised her head to look at her.
She set her gaze firmly on Su Ziyue for two seconds before averting it to Qin Muchen, and there was a subtle
change in her eyes. Then, she sat down and stopped looking at her.
Since the Su family didn’t try to intervene, there wasn’t any suspense in regards to the results of the trial. Zhou
Lingyu was sentenced to a 15-year fixed term imprisonment.
After 15 years, Zhou Lingyu would be an old woman in her sixties. Su Yuanming would definitely abandon her.
“Ahh!! I don’t want to go to jail. Where’s Su Yuanming? I want to meet him!”
The moment Zhou Lingyu was sentenced, she was dumbfounded. After that, she wailed and shouted.
Although it didn’t happen to her, and she wasn’t related to it either, she was the one who had started it.
Su Ziyue wasn’t a foolishly kind person.
Although everyone who acknowledged their mistakes and intended to mend their ways would be offered a chance
to be forgiven, one would have to reap what they had sowed.

Xu Youran was no exception. And neither was Zhou Lingyu.
What about herself? What was she going to sow?
Leaving the court, Su Ziyue was feeling rather down.
Qin Muchen turned to look at her and squeezed her hand. “It’s not your fault.”
Su Ziyue shook her head. “I don’t blame myself.”
Knitting his eyebrows, Qin Muchen didn’t say anything else.
Recently, both of them had been treating each other with respect.
They didn’t talk much to each other and didn’t quarrel either. Most of the time, Su Ziyue would agree to whatever
he said.
With that behavior, Su Ziyue spared him lots of worry, but he knew that this was not the Su Ziyue he liked.
He vaguely knew what the problem was, but…
“Let’s go back. I’m kind of tired.” With that, Su Ziyue quickened her pace.
The media quickly published news about Xu Youran’s court case.
Naturally, the news mentioned Su Yige.
The mother was sentenced a day before the daughter’s marriage.
These two matters would be the topic of public discussion for a long time.
Su Ziyue knew that the shares of Su Group might be affected, but it wouldn’t be serious. After this blew over, the
public would forget about it.
Su Ziyue read several news articles from different news sites in one shot. When Qin Muchen went back to the room
and urged her, only then did she put down her phone to sleep.
“It’s getting late. You should rest early.”
Lately, Qin Muchen hadn’t been going to the office and worked at home instead. After he settled all the documents
for today and realized that Su Ziyue hadn’t slept when he came over to check on her, he habitually frowned.
Yet, as soon as he said that, Su Ziyue put down her phone and lay down.
She had indeed been extremely obedient recently.
He even began to wonder if that woman from the past, who loved to lie and provoke him, was actually Su Ziyue.
This change seemed to be great, but in his heart, he knew that things would worsen if this continued.
However, Qin Muchen, who dominated the business world, couldn’t find a solution.
