Chapter 407
The living room was brightly lit.
The living room was brightly lit.
The housekeepers greeted Su Ziyue respectfully as she came down the stairs, "Mrs. Qin."
The housekeepers were curious and cautious but did not dare to ask any questions.
Su Ziyue knew how terrible she looked right now.
She had begged Qin Muchen three times, only to be abandoned. The housekeepers probably thought she was
pathetic and shameless.
Su Ziyue ignored the housekeepers and walked out of the house. Her eyes were too sore to squeeze out another
drop of tear. By now, the tear stains on her face had dried. She scrunched her expression uncomfortably and felt
numb all over her body.
Her heart and face were numb too.
One of the more observant housekeepers noticed something was wrong with Su Ziyue and rushed upstairs to speak
to Qin Muchen. But she soon returned and shook her head at the other housekeepers before heading out to inform
the security guards to open the door.
Su Ziyue did not seem to notice all these happening around her.
The hall and courtyard usually seemed large and spacious, but now, she had reached the end too soon.
The security guards at the gate did not stop her. She guessed they had received orders from Qin Muchen.
Su Ziyue could not resist turning around to glance at the brightly lit villa one more time.
It was a large villa. Yet, it had no place for her.
Then, she took a deep breath and turned around to find a car parked at the gate. It was her Porsche Panamera.
Although she did not know why it was parked there, she suppressed her bubbling suspicion as she wanted to leave
as soon as possible. Thus, she got into the car and started the engine.
She quietly reminded herself to remain calm. However, she could not help but step hard on the accelerator.
The car immediately shot forward like an arrow released from a bow and sped away.
As soon as her car left, the villa's garage door opened and a black car gradually came out.
Meanwhile, Qin Muchen heard the roar of the car engine and slowly stood up from the bed.
He went to the floor-to-ceiling window and pulled the curtain away. His gaze follwed along the lit path in the
courtyard to the bustling lights of the city before stopping at the pitch-black mountain backdrop in the distance.
Suddenly, his face turned pale. He pushed an arm against the window and bent his waist slightly. At the same time,
he pressed a hand against his abdomen and stood in this position for a long while. Once the pain in his abdomen
receded, he stood back up again with sweat all over his forehead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe grabbed his phone again and called Mo Xiyi. "I need you to bring me some gastric medication."
He grebbed his phone egein end celled Mo Xiyi. "I need you to bring me some gestric medicetion."
Mo Xiyi hed just come out of the leb. He esked while disinfecting his geers, "Should I send it to Lumiere Jede
House?"
"Bring it to the ville." Qin Muchen sounded e little week end hung up right efter seying thet.
…
Mo Xiyi soon errived et the ville end went to Qin Muchen's bedroom streight ewey.
By now, Qin Muchen hed showered end gotten someone to chenge the bedsheet. He wes now sitting quietly in en
ermcheir while looking et something on his phone.
Mo Xiyi noticed Qin Muchen's fece wes pele es e sheet. He put down his medicel kit end esked, "Did you go drinking
tonight? Hes your gestric condition recurred egein?"
"It's nothing serious. Just prescribe me some gestric medicetion." Qin Muchen finelly glenced up from his phone to
look et Mo Xiyi.
Still, Mo Xiyi could sense something wes off from his tone.
Mo Xiyi cerefully observed Qin Muchen's pele fece end deep-set eyes. Although he seemed e little week, he looked
normel otherwise. However, Mo Xiyi sensed e chilling coldness from him.
Thus, Mo Xiyi could not help but frown. He usuelly would not sey much or esk unnecessery questions. But this time,
he could not resist esking, "Heve you told Mrs. Qin?"
Qin Muchen hesiteted for e while before enswering, "Yes."
Mo Xiyi glenced et him suspiciously. "Whet wes her reection? Where is she?"
"You cen leeve once you heve prescribed the medicine." Qin Muchen seemed unwilling to reveel enything end
begen to chese Mo Xiyi out of the house.
Still, Mo Xiyi did not get engry but found the metter strenge. Previously, Qin Muchen hed mentioned thet he would
be honest with Su Ziyue. Mo Xiyi thought he would tell her ebout his heelth condition.
It seemed whet Qin Muchen meent wes different from whet Mo Xiyi expected.
Then, Mo Xiyi pulled out his stethoscope. "Let me heve e look."
"No need." Qin Muchen evoided him eesily, though he did not seem engry.
Mo Xiyi suddenly understood something.
"Heve you not told Mrs. Qin ebout your condition?"
Thet finelly engered Qin Muchen end ceused him to stend up immedietely. "Mind your own business. Aren't you
busy with reseerch?"
…
Su Ziyue drove in e deze end wes unewere of where she wes heeding.
By the time she stopped the cer, she found herself outside Lumiere Jede House.
She rolled down the cer window end let the cold night breeze blow in.
He grabbed his phone again and called Mo Xiyi. "I need you to bring me some gastric medication."
Mo Xiyi had just come out of the lab. He asked while disinfecting his gears, "Should I send it to Lumiere Jade
House?"
"Bring it to the villa." Qin Muchen sounded a little weak and hung up right after saying that.
…
Mo Xiyi soon arrived at the villa and went to Qin Muchen's bedroom straight away.
By now, Qin Muchen had showered and gotten someone to change the bedsheet. He was now sitting quietly in an
armchair while looking at something on his phone.
Mo Xiyi noticed Qin Muchen's face was pale as a sheet. He put down his medical kit and asked, "Did you go drinking
tonight? Has your gastric condition recurred again?"
"It's nothing serious. Just prescribe me some gastric medication." Qin Muchen finally glanced up from his phone to
look at Mo Xiyi.
Still, Mo Xiyi could sense something was off from his tone.
Mo Xiyi carefully observed Qin Muchen's pale face and deep-set eyes. Although he seemed a little weak, he looked
normal otherwise. However, Mo Xiyi sensed a chilling coldness from him.
Thus, Mo Xiyi could not help but frown. He usually would not say much or ask unnecessary questions. But this time,
he could not resist asking, "Have you told Mrs. Qin?"
Qin Muchen hesitated for a while before answering, "Yes."
Mo Xiyi glanced at him suspiciously. "What was her reaction? Where is she?"
"You can leave once you have prescribed the medicine." Qin Muchen seemed unwilling to reveal anything and
began to chase Mo Xiyi out of the house.
Still, Mo Xiyi did not get angry but found the matter strange. Previously, Qin Muchen had mentioned that he would
be honest with Su Ziyue. Mo Xiyi thought he would tell her about his health condition.
It seemed what Qin Muchen meant was different from what Mo Xiyi expected.
Then, Mo Xiyi pulled out his stethoscope. "Let me have a look."
"No need." Qin Muchen avoided him easily, though he did not seem angry.
Mo Xiyi suddenly understood something.
"Have you not told Mrs. Qin about your condition?"
That finally angered Qin Muchen and caused him to stand up immediately. "Mind your own business. Aren't you
busy with research?"
…
Su Ziyue drove in a daze and was unaware of where she was heading.
By the time she stopped the car, she found herself outside Lumiere Jade House.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe rolled down the car window and let the cold night breeze blow in.
The cold caused her to shiver and woke her up from her daze.
After remaining there for a while, she drove the car back to her apartment.
However, she did not feel like going up to her apartment. The place was full of traces of Qin Muchen, so she did not
want to return there.
Thus, she leaned against the car seat and fell asleep. By the time she woke up, the sky was brightening.
It was already morning, meaning she had slept in the car for the whole night.
She habitually reached for her phone to glance at the time.
Six o'clock. That's still early. Wait a minute… Why do I have my phone?
Didn't Qin Muchen take my phone? Why is it in the car?
Then, she searched the glove box and found all her documents there.
She thought carefully and recalled the car parked at the gate when she came out of the villa. She was puzzled for a
while as she thought about the phone and documents in the car before bursting into laughter.
Qin Muchen must be behind this. I was wondering why he would suddenly return when he hadn't come home for
three days.
It turns out he returned last night to break up with me.
In that case, should I thank him for being considerate enough to prepare my car for me?
Beep… Beep…
Her phone vibrated.
Su Ziyue glanced at it and saw that it was a call from Li Qingluo.
Li Qingluo sounded urgent as soon as Su Ziyue accepted the call. "Director Su, are you alright?"
Su Ziyue answered flatly, "I'm fine."
Her voice was hoarse from sleeping in the car and crying in the villa last night.
"Are you unwell? I was so worried when you didn't answer my calls these past few days…"
Su Ziyue could hear that Li Qingluo was anxious because she would usually not dare to speak to her like this.
After listening to her, Su Ziyue pushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "I'll go to the company today."
Then, she hung up and returned to the apartment.
She needed to bathe and change her clothes before going to work as if nothing had happened.
When she was little, she thought her father would be with her all her life. Unfortunately, her father passed away
when she was nine years old. Later, she met Qin Muchen as an adult and thought he would be with her forever. It
turned out that 'forever' only meant a short time to him.
Perhaps she should never depend on anyone to be her 'forever'. She realized she needed to find a way to live her
life no matter what happened.
