Chapter 242
The room sank into a strange silence.
Qin Muchen’s eyes flickered while he pursed his thin lips and stared straight at Su Ziyue for a few seconds. Then, he
suddenly averted his gaze. “I met a very important person.”
Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue didn’t even bat an eyelid and asked coldly, “With Gu Hanyan?”
Facing Su Ziyue’s interrogation, Qin Muchen furrowed his eyebrows and replied calmly, “Yes.”
“For the whole day?”
“Yes.”
Every question that Su Ziyue asked, Qin Muchen would answer it.
He looked extremely sincere, and it seemed like he would answer any question that she asked.
However, she stopped asking. He should be explaining himself, so why should she ask again and again?
Su Ziyue slowly clenched her fists. She believed that with Qin Muchen’s meticulousness, he definitely knew what she
wanted to know the most.
Who did he meet with Hanyan? Was it a very important person? Was he the current person in power of the Mogwin
family? And how was Qin Muchen related to him?
Su Ziyue closed her eyes, looking tired. “I see. I’m tired and I’m going to bed now.”
Qin Muchen’s intelligence was obvious to all, so how he was behaving now clearly indicated that he didn’t want her
to know who he had met.
After that, she walked to the bed and climbed into it. Then, she covered herself with the blanket and closed her
eyes.
She thought that she would suffer from insomnia and couldn’t sleep. Unexpectedly, she dozed off not long after she
lay down.
The next day, it was already quite late in the morning when Su Ziyue woke up.
When she lifted the blanket to get out of bed, she inadvertently turned her head and spotted a small blood stain on
the bed sheets.
Hmm…
Su Ziyue felt abashed. She counted the days and it seemed like it was her menstrual period.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe hastily went to the bathroom, and when she got out again, she removed the bed sheets and put on new ones.
“You’re up?”
Right at that moment, Qin Muchen walked in. Noticing that she was changing the bed sheets, his eyes flickered and
he soon understood why.
“Yes.” Carrying the bed sheets, Su Ziyue looked at him awkwardly. Somehow, she felt that Qin Muchen had figured
out what had happened.
“Come down and have some breakfast.” Sensing her uneasiness, Qin Muchen turned and left after telling her that.
Su Ziyue felt relieved. She then carried the bed sheets into the bathroom and washed away the blood stain. After
that, she threw the bed sheets into the washing machine.
When she went downstairs, Qin Muchen was talking on the phone. Hearing the noises from behind, he turned to
look at her. Then, he lowered his voice.
There was still a distance between Su Ziyue and him so she couldn’t hear what he was saying.
When she got down, Qin Muchen had already ended the call and was walking toward her.
Then, both of them went to the dining room.
Looking at the delicious yet nutritious breakfast in front of her, a multitude of feelings surged up.
Actually, Qin Muchen was a great man…
Except that he loved to keep everything to himself.
He wouldn’t tell her what he did, as well as what he was thinking and why he was angry.
Although he didn’t tell her who he had met with Gu Hanyan yesterday, Su Ziyue knew that it must be someone
extremely important. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have left her alone at the hospital without informing her.
However, it was still depressing.
He had gone to meet an extremely important person with someone who had been coveting him, and he hadn’t
brought her along. Moreover, he didn’t even want to tell her about it.
“Still not feeling like eating?” Qin Muchen asked Su Ziyue after noticing that she didn’t eat after a while.
Su Ziyue came back to her senses and came up with an excuse. “I didn’t sleep well, so I feel sleepy.”
Perhaps Qin Muchen had scruples for her digestive system, he didn’t make western breakfast that he usually liked.
Instead, he made congee and two side dishes with a few dim sums.
Su Ziyue ate with great appetite, and she only stopped after devouring two and a half bowls.
At that moment, Qin Muchen put a cup of brown sugar water in front of her and advised her, “Don’t take those
medicine anymore.”
Su Ziyue didn’t reply to him and just quietly drank the brown sugar water. After drinking, the subtle pain in her
lower abdomen had vanished.
“I have to go now. If you need any help, just call me… Or Nan Chuan and Jingshu.”
The brief pause in Qin Muchen’s words was noticed by Su Ziyue.
Su Ziyue didn’t say anything, so he thought that she was listening to him attentively. Without him knowing, his face
became gentle. “If you want to go out, just call the driver. I’ve saved their number for you previously. Do you
understand?”
“Yeah.” Su Ziyue lowered her eyes and nodded.
Qin Muchen was enchanted, so he bent down and lifted her chin. Then, he kissed her.
The kiss was mixed with the sweetness of the brown sugar.
Qin Muchen’s face instantly relaxed, and he seemed cheerful at once. His nice-looking eyes were filled with smiles
as well. “Wait for me at home. I’ll come back as early as I can to accompany you.”
After that, he pinched Su Ziyue’s face before reluctantly leaving.
Even after the sound of the car leaving could be heard, Su Ziyue was still maintaining the posture from before
without moving an inch.
Just now when Qin Muchen said that he would come back as early as he could to accompany her, she felt like she
was a pet that was being raised in a confined area.
Beef ran up to her when she wasn’t paying attention, and it was anxiously circling her.
Su Ziyue knew that Beef wanted to have a walk outside because it had become a habit lately.
Su Ziyue reached out her hands and hugged Beef while muttering to herself, “I think I’m just like you now…”
Waiting passively without making any effort was never a solution.
Even if Qin Muchen had a thousand reasons not to tell Su Ziyue who he was meeting, she would still proactively
seek the truth with just one reason.
Just because he was Qin Muchen.
Ever since she got into a minor accident, Qin Muchen had forbidden her from driving. However, there were a few
cars in the garage at home.
Su Ziyue picked a car that wasn’t so eye-catching and drove to Lumiere Jade House.
She was just trying her luck. If the person in power of the Mogwin family was indeed the person he and Gu Hanyan
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmet, he would definitely be at Lumiere Jade House.
Out of her expectation, Su Ziyue didn’t see Qin Muchen and Gu Hanyan even after waiting at Lumiere Jade House
until noon.
On the contrary, she bumped into An Xia and Bai Jingshu.
“Yunteng offers such remarkable benefits that even a boss will bring his employee to have a meal in this kind of
place.” Su Ziyue grinned while looking at the two people who were walking toward her and teased them.
An Xia shouted to explain, “That’s not true. He’s only treating me to a meal because he lost a bet!”
“Oh, I see.” Su Ziyue pretended to be enlightened.
Bai Jingshu glared at her. Su Ziyue suddenly realized that if it was someone important to Qin Muchen, Bai Jingshu
would know him too!
Therefore, Su Ziyue shamelessly sat at the same table with them.
When An Xia went to the bathroom, Bai Jingshu finally couldn’t hold it in. “Tell me, did I offend you?”
He finally had a chance to have a meal with An Xia alone but Su Ziyue had interrupted them and became the third-
wheel.
“You didn’t, but I actually want to ask you something…” Su Ziyue smiled gently at him.
That made Bai Jingshu’s skin crawl. “Save your smile and just spit it out.”
Her smile was as horrifying as Qin Muchen’s smile.
“Well… Qin Muchen said that he will be bringing me to meet a very important person tonight but he is keeping that
person’s identity a secret. I’m just feeling a little nervous…”
Su Ziyue held the glass of water with both hands while a trace of nervousness appeared on her face.
“Qin Muchen wants to bring you to meet—” Bai Jingshu suddenly paused in the middle of his sentence.
Su Ziyue was inwardly delighted because Bai Jingshu definitely knew who it was.
Frowning, she continued to look nervous. “Can you tell me who is he bringing me to meet? He’s being so secretive
and it’s making me extremely nervous.”
The look on Bai Jingshu’s face became stern as he doubtfully asked, “He really wants to bring you to meet
someone?”
“Of course! Why would I lie to you?” Su Ziyue rolled her eyes at him.
Glancing at her and pondering, Bai Jingshu finally said, “If I tell you, you must leave immediately and stop
interrupting us!”
“Alright!”
Su Ziyue agreed readily, and Bai Jingshu replied at once too. “The person he wants you to meet is his grandfather.”
Qin Muchen’s grandfather?
