Chapter 233
Forty minutes had passed by the time Qin Muchen and Su Ziyue came out of the kitchen.
Su Ziyue was holding a glass of hangover tea while Qin Muchen held the breakfast.
She placed the glass of tea in front of An Xia and watched as she finished it before asking her, "How does it taste?"
"It's alright," she said although it tasted weird.
Chuckling, Su Ziyue passed the breakfast to her. "Eat up now."
Qin Muchen came back with two more portions of breakfast. After placing one in front of Su Ziyue, he then took a
seat and started eating slowly.
After taking a sip of juice, she pushed it to him. "It's too sweet. I've told you not to add sugar. It tastes better if it's a
little more sour."
Expressionless, he took the glass from her, took a sip and furrowed his brows. It tasted like usual and not anymore
sweeter as she claimed.
He simply thought that she had a bad appetite as she had woken up earlier than usual today.
Staring at the glass, An Xia silently lowered her head and ate her breakfast. Didn't they find it unhygienic to share
the same glass?
A person who was single couldn't understand this.
Luckily, they didn’t act lovey-dovey anymore and everyone finished their breakfast shortly after. An Xia helped out
with the dishes and Qin Muchen returned to his study so that the girls could have the space to themselves.

Su Ziyue decided to take a stroll outside with Beef.
An Xia was a dog-lover as well, and Beef appeared as if it had found a new best friend and kept playing chase with
her.
When the both of them stopped for a rest, Su Ziyue said, "Yesterday, Bai Jingshu turned up as well."
"Huh?" An Xia reached out and grabbed Beef's paw, which was clawing at her, and turned to look at Su Ziyue in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtconfusion.
"He-"
Su Ziyue had just started speaking when she was abruptly cut off by the car horn. Both of them turned toward the
source of the sound just in time to see Bai Jingshu lowering the car window and looking at them.
Fixing his gaze on An Xia, his eyes suddenly lit up. Then, he opened the car door and strode toward them.
With a cynical smirk on his face, he said in an irritated tone, "You're still a flat-chested girl after a change of
clothes."
Su Ziyue kept her silence and didn't say a thing as she watched.
If she hadn't seen how he had gone into a mad rage last night at Lumiere Jade House, she would have thought that
he was now here to tease her on a whim.
He obviously cared a lot for her, but acted otherwise by saying something like this the moment he saw her. Of
course he would receive a beating from An Xia.
Sneering, An Xia chuckled mockingly with her comeback, "After getting a different hairstyle, it still didn't change the
fact that you're a small stallion with a huge ego."
"Explain yourself! Who are you calling a small stallion? Recently, I've-" Bai Jingshu stopped mid-sentence as though
something just crossed his mind and threw his hand into the air. As An Xia glared at him, he snorted and turned to
play with Beef.
Recently, he was always going out and coming home early. He had quit going to nightclubs and stopped messing
around with women, but he didn’t want to tell An Xia about it.
She would think that he had become impotent.
He couldn't know the personality of this annoying woman any better than this.
Looking at how energetic she looked, it seemed like she was alright now.
He wondered what she was made of; how could she wake up fine after drinking so much the night before?
An Xia gave a snort and stroked Beef's head. "You're a dog, Beef. Don't hangout with a horse. Good boy."
Beef stared at Bai Jingshu with its big, puppy eyes and tilted its head. Wiggling its butt, it then turned to An Xia and
pawed at her feet, asking for attention.
As Bai Jingshu stood there speechless, Su Ziyue couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Bai Jingshu couldn't understand why Beef was so obedient to An Xia, so he rushed right into the study to look for
Qin Muchen once he stepped into the villa.
"Muchen, is Beef a male dog?"
Sitting in front of the computer and typing away on the keyboard, Qin Muchen merely muttered ‘yes’ calmly without
lifting his head to look at him.
"Damn it! I knew it!" Annoyed, he strutted over, sat across Qin Muchen and knocked on the desk loudly. "Why do
you have a male dog?"
"You can't even compete with a dog?" Qin Muchen cast him a cold look without hiding the disdain in his eyes.
"I-" The cat got Bai Jingshu's tongue and he didn’t know what to say.
A relaxing sensation washed all over Qin Muchen as he gloated over his misfortune.

For the next few days, everything was peaceful except for Su Ziyue's appetite which had turned a little odd. Things
were going smoothly at work and the Su family did not stir up any trouble for them.
She wasn't feeling anything from the wound on her back anymore and thought that she could return to work at Su
Group before the new year.
But when she told Qin Muchen this, he slammed her down coldly.
"I think I can return to work at Su Group before the new year," she said while pouring a cup of tea for him that she
had prepared in the study.
Taking a sip from the tea, his face relaxed and he said after a while, "Are you sure you want to return to Su Group?"
"I don’t have any plans to leave Su Group currently." Although she had completely fallen out with the Su family, she
still wanted to find out about her father. She could even use her special relationship with the President of LK as her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtrump card against the Su family so they would think twice about harming her.
Knitting his brows slightly, he said, "I'll acquire Su Group and you can be the boss."
Speechless, she wondered if there was any possibility to get through to him and that was how the topic ended.
It was indeed a critical period now; the fallout with the Su family was so thorough this time that nobody knew what
they would do out of desperation.

In the afternoon, Qin Muchen received a summon from the court. After taking a look at it, he threw it directly into
the bin.
"What's that?" Su Ziyue asked curiously.
"A summon from the court," he said calmly with a nonchalant expression on his face.
Her heart tightened at the mention of the word ‘court’. "Was it from Gong Zeyang?"
"Yes." He leaned on the chair and saw the concerned and worried look on her face. "Don't worry, I can deal with
this," he comforted.
"I'm worried about An Xia." After all, she was the one who had implicated her.
For a person like Su Yige, it didn't matter to her who was innocent as long as she could achieve her aim. Regardless
who she had to make use of, she would never feel any guilt.
For instance, poor Zhou Lingyu was still alone and locked up in jail. Although she deserved what she got, Su Yige
had still been too heartless toward her.
Just then, her phone rang and she whisked out her phone to see that it was An Xia.
"Let's go for dinner! It's on me!" An Xia's voice was energetic as usual, but she found it a little suspicious that she
was going to buy her a meal.
"Okay," Su Ziyue agreed without asking any questions because she could ask her when she saw her anyway.
After she hung up, she saw that Qin Muchen was looking at her composedly. He waited until she was looking in his
direction before asking in a quiet voice, "Going out for dinner?"
"That's right, so take care of your own dinner tonight." The hidden meaning was that she was going out for dinner
and wouldn't be bringing him along.
