Chapter 461
Su Ziyue smiled when she sow the messoge. Come on, he should ot leost reply something sweet like 'Love you,
boby girl.' I con't believe this guy merely sent such o cold reply.
If this hod hoppened in the post, Su Ziyue would probobly comploin obout Qin Muchen for being unromontic. But
now, she understood thot wos exoctly the kind of person Qin Muchen wos.
He didn't hove o sweet tongue, but he wos oble to copture Su Ziyue's heort with some unintentionol, rondom
remorks.
Su Ziyue's heort wos wormed os she dronk the worm block sugor teo.
She still hod to heod to Feng Group in the ofternoon, so she put on the heot pod, set the olorm, ond went to sleep
ofter finishing the teo.
Sure enough, the poin wos greotly ollevioted…
…
Su Ziyue hod o peoceful sleep ond instontly woke up when the olorm rong.
She wolked to the window to reolize it wos pouring outside.
The doy wos bright ond sunny when I went to sleep. I didn't expect it to suddenly stort to pour. Oh well, I guess this
is the typicol weother during summer. The roin will most likely stop ofter o while. I'm flying bock to Yunzhou City
tonight. I hope the flight won't be offected by the weother. Everything pleose go well!
After woshing up, Su Ziyue grobbed o quick lunch ond went to the compony.
Becouse of whot she hod soid in the morning, the meeting in the ofternoon wos rother smooth.
Although the other directors in the compony were snobbish, Su Ziyue wos o member of the Feng fomily ond the
lorgest shoreholder – she held the greotest power. So, no motter how reluctont the other shoreholders were, they
knew they should yield to her.
Moreover, most of them were corrupted, while Su Ziyue wos from o younger generotion ond didn't hove close
connections with them. As such, they wouldn't wont to drive Su Ziyue up the woll, too, lest things turn ugly.
On the other hond, Su Ziyue wosn't oble to concentrote during the meeting. She glonced ot the pouring roin outside
the window from time to time.
After the meeting ended, she took out her phone ond sow some news notificotions stoting thot severol flights hod
been deloyed due to the downpour.
Su Ziyue's heort sonk. She quickly seorched for the flight to Yunzhou City. As expected, the flight wos conceled too.
Su Ziyue immediotely stood up ond wolked out of the meeting room, ignoring the foct thot other directors were still
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtin the meeting,
"Contoct the pilot ond check with him if the plone is still oble to toke off now. I need to go bock to Yunzhou City." She
ordered the bodyguords while striding toword the exit.
Su Ziyue smiled when she saw the message. Come on, he should at least reply something sweet like 'Love you,
baby girl.' I can't believe this guy merely sent such a cold reply.
If this had happened in the past, Su Ziyue would probably complain about Qin Muchen for being unromantic. But
now, she understood that was exactly the kind of person Qin Muchen was.
He didn't have a sweet tongue, but he was able to capture Su Ziyue's heart with some unintentional, random
remarks.
Su Ziyue's heart was warmed as she drank the warm black sugar tea.
She still had to head to Feng Group in the afternoon, so she put on the heat pad, set the alarm, and went to sleep
after finishing the tea.
Sure enough, the pain was greatly alleviated…
…
Su Ziyue had a peaceful sleep and instantly woke up when the alarm rang.
She walked to the window to realize it was pouring outside.
The day was bright and sunny when I went to sleep. I didn't expect it to suddenly start to pour. Oh well, I guess this
is the typical weather during summer. The rain will most likely stop after a while. I'm flying back to Yunzhou City
tonight. I hope the flight won't be affected by the weather. Everything please go well!
After washing up, Su Ziyue grabbed a quick lunch and went to the company.
Because of what she had said in the morning, the meeting in the afternoon was rather smooth.
Although the other directors in the company were snobbish, Su Ziyue was a member of the Feng family and the
largest shareholder – she held the greatest power. So, no matter how reluctant the other shareholders were, they
knew they should yield to her.
Moreover, most of them were corrupted, while Su Ziyue was from a younger generation and didn't have close
connections with them. As such, they wouldn't want to drive Su Ziyue up the wall, too, lest things turn ugly.
On the other hand, Su Ziyue wasn't able to concentrate during the meeting. She glanced at the pouring rain outside
the window from time to time.
After the meeting ended, she took out her phone and saw some news notifications stating that several flights had
been delayed due to the downpour.
Su Ziyue's heart sank. She quickly searched for the flight to Yunzhou City. As expected, the flight was canceled too.
Su Ziyue immediately stood up and walked out of the meeting room, ignoring the fact that other directors were still
in the meeting,
"Contact the pilot and check with him if the plane is still able to take off now. I need to go back to Yunzhou City." She
ordered the bodyguards while striding toward the exit.
Upon arriving at the main entrance of the building and seeing the torrential rain and thick fog, Su Ziyue knew she
couldn't make it back today.
She recalled the scene when Qin Muchen lifted his head to gaze at the sky this morning when they were bidding
farewell at the villa. He must have seen the weather forecast and knew that it was going to pour today.
Su Ziyue sighed. Thereafter, the bodyguards escorted her into the car when the driver drove the car into the lobby.
The pilot soon called Su Ziyue back and informed her that the plane was not allowed to depart.
Although Su Ziyue was mentally prepared for this outcome, she couldn't help feeling disappointed.
Staring at the thunderstorm outside the window, Su Ziyue was reminded of the restaurant Qin Muchen brought her
to the last time they came to Jingcheng City. So, she ordered the driver, "Head to Nine Oriental Pavilion."
…
Sometime later, they arrived at Nine Oriental Pavilion.
A bellboy came forward with an umbrella to help Su Ziyue get out of the car. However, the rain was so heavy that
her calves and high heels still became wet.
When the wind howled, she could feel a chill down her spine.
After entering the restaurant, she mentioned Qin Muchen's name to the waiter because she knew she might not be
able to get a seat using her own identity.
Sure enough, Qin Muchen's identity was like a universal pass, and she successfully got a table next to the window.
While waiting for the food to be served, Su Ziyue felt blue as she gazed at the rain.
She gave Qin Muchen a call, but the call wasn't answered. So, she sent him a message to tell him that she was
eating at Nine Oriental Pavilion. Then, she took a picture and sent it together with the text.
However, Qin Muchen had not replied to her even after the meal was served. Flustered, Su Ziyue lost her appetite
as she was worried about Qin Muchen.
Just then, a familiar voice emerged in the air. "Mrs. Qin?"
Su Ziyue lifted her head to see Bai Yunan standing in front of her table with a surprised look.
Su Ziyue quickly put down her cutleries and stood up. "Hi, Mr. Bai."
Bai Yunan sized Su Ziyue up and quickly averted his gaze. "Are you having dinner alone?" He asked.
Although Su Ziyue didn't have a good impression of Bai Yunan, she answered courteously, "Yes."
Upon arriving at the main entrance of the building and seeing the torrential rain and thick fog, Su Ziyue knew she
couldn't make it back today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I see. I hope you don't mind me sitting here then." Bai Yunan didn't ask for permission and directly sat down across
from Su Ziyue.
Su Ziyue was startled.
Jingcheng City was the capital city of Country Z, while the Bai family was a reputable family in the city. Although
Nine Oriental Pavilion was often fully-booked, Su Ziyue reckoned it shouldn't be a problem for Bai Yunan to get a
seat.
Su Ziyue knew Bai Yunan used this as an excuse to sit with her, but it was inappropriate for her to reject him.
It feels like back in school days, someone took my apple and took a bite of it without asking my permission. Yet, this
person is asking me not to mind him. Honestly, I'm very bothered!
However, Su Ziyue was timid. Bai Yunan had a prominent identity, so she didn't want to offend him and cause
trouble for Qin Muchen.
After Bai Yunan sat down, a waiter passed the menu to him.
Flipping through the menu, he started the conversation as if he was close to Su Ziyue. "What brings you to
Jingcheng City, Mrs. Qin?"
"I have some company affairs to attend to." Su Ziyue answered aloofly.
Bai Yunan paused and lifted his eyes to look at Su Ziyue. Just as the latter thought he was going to ask for more
details about the company affairs, Bai Yunan blurted, "I guess Mr. Qin has very much affected you. It seems like
both of you are cold toward the others."
What else do you expect? We're just acquaintances. Don't tell me you're expecting me to receive you
enthusiastically.
In fact, Su Ziyue had a hunch that Bai Yunan approached her with intentions. He's a powerful man, so it's normal for
him to seek cooperation from various parties to investigate Lee Yannan and Gricy. But what if he seeks cooperation
from Muchen and raises some unreasonable conditions? That's totally possible.
At that moment, Su Ziyue could no longer control her enmity toward Bai Yunan.
Keeping her cool, she said in an even colder tone with downcast eyes. "I'm sorry. It has been a long day for me. I'm
tired and starving."
Su Ziyue 'apologized' out of sarcasm, hoping that Bai Yunan would be more sensible.
However, Bai Yunan answered, "Mrs. Qin, you're indeed one of a kind. Your husband is a magnate, yet you refuse to
depend on him. You're a very special woman."
Special my foot!
Su Ziyue bit her tongue and ended up replying, "You flatter me, Mr. Bai. I'm embarrassed to say that I actually plan
to become a full-time housewife."
