Marry Me Quick

Chapter 62

Looking at Qin Muchen with a serious face, Nan Chuan said, "Mr. Qin, I didn't know that Miss Su would be coming."

If Su Ziyue bought into the absurd words of these two people, that would make her the lunatic.

Without even taking a look at Su Ziyue, Qin Muchen said calmly, "That's alright."

Instantly, Nan Chuan eagerly poured a glass of water for Qin Muchen.

"Take a seat, Ziyue. What would you like to order? We haven't ordered because we were waiting for you." An Xia dragged her to a seat and passed her a menu as if to appease her.

Looking at her coldly, Su Ziyue merely smiled dryly as she had nowhere to release her temper when An Xia was all smiles at her while pouring her a drink.

Nan Chuan said beside them, "You can order anything. Don’t worry about us. We can eat anything."

"You can eat anything?" Su Ziyue raised her head quizzically at Nan Chuan, and her gaze swept to Qin Muchen unintentionally.

In his expensive suit, Qin Muchen looked out of place sitting here, although not a trace of discomfort was on his usual expressionless face.

Luckily, he never appeared in front of the media, nor did anyone recognize him.

Even so, compared with the other guests, their table seemed rather eye-catching.

Nodding, Nan Chuan replied, "Mr. Qin and I can eat anything. We’re not picky eaters."

Su Ziyue nodded as she agreed to place the food order.

Besides recalling the last time when they had hot pot and Qin Muchen did not touch anything from the spicy soup, she also remembered that he rarely added anything spicy when he was cooking at home.

Gesturing for the stall owner to come take her order, she named her dishes, "One spicy hot pot, grilled fish, spicy beef…" Flipping through the menu, she added a few more dishes before finalizing her order. "That's all, thank you."

The stall owner left after jotting down the order, and she saw a strange look on Nan Chuan's face the moment she lifted her head.

It seemed like she had guessed correctly—Qin Muchen could not really take spicy food.

Although she had no idea how these people managed to get together, she knew it was not a coincidence at all that Qin Muchen had come along.

With a courteous smile on her face, she fixed her eyes on Qin Muchen. "Don't you have a flight this evening, Mr. Qin?"

"The flight departs at 1 a.m., so there’s still time to finish dinner before I go."

His voice was a little low when he spoke, pleasant to the ears as it reverberated slowly in the air.

However, it was not pleasant to Su Ziyue’s ears. After a sip of water, she stopped speaking, and the food was served a little while later.

Only bright red, flaming colors could be seen on the table. One glance and anyone could tell they were all spicy food.

Su Ziyue had deliberately ordered only spicy dishes since he was the one who started with the tricks!

Even though Nan Chuan was a foreigner, he had been living here for years and was great at eating spicy food, and it was much more so for An Xia and herself.

Only Qin Muchen, who had lived abroad for more than a decade, narrowed his eyes when the food was served.

And then, as Su Ziyue and Nan Chuan stared in surprise, Qin Muchen picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

Startled, Su Ziyue thought that she had guessed wrongly. So he could actually handle spicy food?

When they were almost finished, An Xia stood up abruptly, announcing that she would like to buy milk tea. Nan Chuan then promptly stood up, saying, "I'll accompany her."

Afterward, there was only Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen left at the table.

With her head buried in food, Su Ziyue continued eating as if Qin Muchen was not around. But he called her name suddenly, "Su Ziyue."

She raised her head, and he continued, "Due to certain reasons, I can't appear in front of the media, and neither do I want to show up in front of Su Youcheng, but the LK branch has only been in China for a short while, so it needs to collaborate with a strong company."

Slowing down her chewing, she wondered why he was bringing this up at this time.

"So you chose me on purpose and refused to meet Su Yige because they've met you before, and you don't want them to know that you're the president of LK."

It was not because he wanted to help her retrieve her shares; it was because he already had his eyes on the Su Group.

Without showing his face and to prevent LK from losing the opportunity by being too proactive, he staged a front to make Su Youcheng and the rest believe that he was interested in Su Ziyue, specifically asking for her for negotiations and pretending he was not actually interested in cooperating with the Su Group.

Coldly, she asked, “Why the Su Group?”

Could it be that his motive since the beginning was that simple, that he just wanted to cooperate with the Su Group?

Despite that, Su Ziyue found this a little illogical. For this simple objective, it seemed a little far-fetched that he would go through the pain of living with her in that small apartment.

His reply was very simple. “The Su Group is the most suitable.”

As a businessman, he meant business when speaking about it, so she believed what he said was true.

Soon, An Xia and Nan Chuan returned, each with two cups of milk tea in their hands.

“Miss Su, this is for you.” Nan Chuan handed her a cup and inserted a straw into another cup before placing it in front of Qin Muchen.

Qin Muchen shot him an icy look, and Nan Chuan retracted his hand awkwardly, mumbling under his breath, “Except for the slightly strong flavoring, it doesn’t taste that bad at all…”

His eyes got even colder, and Nan Chuan went silent, which immediately made Su Ziyue feel sorry for him.

Since Qin Muchen and Nan Chuan had to go to the airport, they all split up after the meal.

In the car.

Squinting his eyes as he sat in the backseat of the car, Qin Muchen appeared a little unwell, the back of his hand supporting his forehead.

Through the rearview mirror, Nan Chuan stole a glance at him but did not say anything. When he passed by a pharmacy, he stopped the car and got out.

Soon, he came back with a cup of warm water and a box of medication and passed it to Qin Muchen with knitted brows.

He took a look at it and swallowed two pills before saying, “Thank you.”

“Hmph!” Nan Chuan grunted and ignored him.

As a person with gastric problems, he still ate so much spicy food. After working with him for so many years, it was the first time he realized how stubborn Qin Muchen could be.

Su Ziyue drove An Xia back home, and when they reached her place, An Xia got off with a smile. "I'm leaving now."

Su Ziyue shot her a look. "Get out quickly."

After she alighted, she bent over at the window and said in a cutesy tone, "See you tomorrow!"

A shiver went through Su Ziyue’s body and goosebumps appeared on her skin. She smiled back at An Xia and suddenly averted her gaze to look behind her, her expression abruptly changing. "An Xia, behind you…"

An Xia's heart stopped. "What is it?"

Knowing that An Xia was a superstitious person, Su Ziyue burst into laughter when she saw her

frightened face. "I'm just messing with you. I'm going home now."

Stepping on the pedal, she drove off and left An Xia behind, fuming.

It was Friday the next day, and there happened to be a summary meeting in the company.

Arriving on time at the company, Su Ziyue went to the meeting room when the meeting was about to begin. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

When she arrived, she saw that Su Yige had also just come. Her face froze as the look in her eyes became cold.

Seeing Su Ziyue entering the room, an unreadable smile spread across Su Yige's face. "Ziyue is here."
