Marry Me Quick

Chapter 566

Ziyue was stunned. She bit her lip and froze.

Muchen's face darkened. He narrowed his eyes and asked Ziyue, "Did you not hear what I said?"

Ziyue felt guilty when she saw Muchen like that.

But Muchen felt less distressed when he realized that Ziyue had gotten hurt because of him.

Muchen had always been temperamental. Moreover, he did not like Shichu. He had told her that Shichu might be Gricy's K7 team leader.

So when he saw Ziyue with Shichu, he could not control his anger.

Ziyue had initially felt angry toward him for doubting her. But she felt so much better when she thought of it the other way.

"Is there anything you'd like to eat?" Ziyue raised her head and smiled at Muchen as if nothing had happened.

The doctor had told them that Muchen could have liquid food tomorrow, so Ziyue wanted to make him something he was craving.

Ziyue pursed her lips and sighed in relief.

Don't take him to heart. He isn't able to control his temper now. Ziyue comforted herself.

Muchen stared at her for a while before closing his eyes to rest.

Ziyue did not wake him up. She waited quietly beside him.

But she could not stay awake long because she hadn't slept all night.

She held her head with one hand and began to nod off.

At that moment, Muchen, who was asleep, opened his eyes.

Ziyue looked exhausted to him. Without hesitating, he reached out and held Ziyue's head.

With Muchen's support, Ziyue finally felt more comfortable and naturally fell asleep.

Muchen watched her sleep quietly. He slowly lowered his hand, supporting her head until it rested on the bed.

He stared at her for a few moments before he removed his hand. Then, he slowly pushed himself up and reached for his phone at his bedside.

He took his phone and called Chuan.

The call got connected a long while later.

Chuan sounded a little surprised when he answered the call. "Boss?"

He had worked for Muchen for many years. So he naturally knew what he should do now that his boss was unavailable for work.

Something urgent must have popped out for Muchen to call him.

Muchen spoke in a low voice. "Find Shichu and bring him to me."

"Huh?" Chuan thought he had misheard Muchen.

Although they had always been suspicious of Shichu, they never did anything because of Ziyue.

Yet Muchen wanted him to catch Shichu now.

"Can you do it? I will get someone else to do it if you can't." Muchen did not give Chuan time to think at all. His voice deepened.

Chuan could hear Muchen's dissatisfaction and quickly answered, "All right, I get it."

…

Muchen did not speak to Ziyue for a week.

However, he did not refuse Ziyue's care.

He would eat the food Ziyue made and let Ziyue clean his body. They looked all right like they were in

the past.

Chuan and Ke, who visited Muchen occasionally, could feel the awkwardness between Ziyue and Muchen.

Muchen, especially, seemed weird.

Muchen did not speak to any of them for the whole week.

It was as if he had become dumb.

But he would still listen to Chuan and Ke's work reports. His responses were merely nodding or shaking of his head.

Today was the day Muchen would get discharged from the hospital. Ke and Chuan came.

Even Xiyi came.

Xiyi looked at Muchen as soon as he entered the ward.

Muchen raised his head and saw Xiyi.

The two exchanged glances, and Xiyi could not help but frown.

A complicated expression filled his face before he greeted Muchen. "Mr. Qin."

Muchen nodded solemnly.

After Ziyue tidied Muchen's belongings, she helped him put on his coat. Then, she helped him out.

But before they could go further, Muchen pulled away from her hold. Ziyue quickly turned around and looked at him. She watched as Muchen held her hand.

Ziyue was taken aback for a while. Then, she smiled.

They went back to the villa together. Ziyue brought Muchen back to his room to rest.

She saw Xiyi at the door as soon as she left Muchen's room.

Xiyi was waiting for her.

Ziyue was surprised. "Dr. Mo."

"Where is Mr. Qin?" Xiyi peeked through the gap in the ajar door.

Muchen is nowhere to be seen. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"He needs proper rest. Let him have some rest." Ziyue closed the door as she spoke.

Xiyi nodded solemnly.

Ziyue closed the door and walked down the stairs with Xiyi. "Dr. Mo, do you have anything on your mind?"

"How did Mr. Qin… Get into an accident?"

"I'm not sure." Only then Ziyue realized that she had never asked Muchen about his accident.

Xiyi hesitated before speaking, "Mrs. Qin, did you and Mr. Qin fight recently?"

His question took Ziyue by surprise.

But Ziyue knew that Xiyi was a tactful person. He would not ask about someone else's private life out of the blue.

Ziyue pursed her lips quietly in tacit agreement.

Xiyi's face turned solemn once more. "Do you still remember the side effects of 'K1LU73,' which I told you before?"

"Yeah…" Ziyue's face turned pale instantly. She understood what Xiyi was trying to say immediately.

"Mr. Qin has always been a collected person. He has a strong ability to control himself. But…" Xiyi turned to Ziyue and looked at her.

"Are you implying that I was the one who triggered his side effects…"

Xiyi had told her about the side effects of 'K1LU73' before.

But she never took caution of it because Muchen always acted as usual.

"What if I explain it to him properly? Will it be fine then?" She thought Muchen acted like that because he had misunderstood her and Shichu.

"It depends on his opinion about you two. If it's the same as I predicted, we cannot treat him like a normal person."

But Xiyi did not tell Ziyue that Muchen was already behaving abnormally. It was indisputable that he was entirely affected by the side effects of 'K1LU73'.
