Marry Me Quick

Chapter 599 Get Rocky

Jueyin was too anxious. When he stood up, he accidentally hit the corner of the table. The dull thud of the impact made Ziyue squirm.

She just wanted to tease Muchen and didn't mean to scare Jueyin. She didn't expect Jueyin would get terrified by her meager prank.

Jueyin fled in terror. Ziyue was baffled by his reaction. She then served Muchen the other cup of tea, "Here, have some tea."

Muchen gave her a cold look, and Ziyue stared back at him.

Suddenly, Muchen picked up the teacup and threw it on the floor. He also threw out Jueyin's share.

'Crack!'

'Praak!'

Two crisp sounds echoed in the room, and the two teacups were shattered.

Ziyue was startled by his abrupt tantrum. Immediately, she took two steps back and exclaimed, "What's wrong with you?!"

Muchen was behaving like a woman, slamming and throwing things in a fit of anger.

She never acted so impulsively in her rage!

Wait a minute. To state the obvious, Ziyue's temperament was naught compared to Muchen's.

Muchen pointed to the door and uttered coldly, "Get out!"

"You..."

He was suddenly throwing a tantrum, smashing cups, and chasing her away from his office. Who could stand such absurd behavior?

Muchen was the one who started it all.

Ziyue was also enraged. She slammed the tray before him and stormed out of the room.

After exiting Muchen's office, Jueyin pulled up by the roadside and lit a cigarette; only then did he feel recharged.

He had never seen anyone more terrifying than Muchen.

Even Yuchuan had never seemed as terrifying as him.

At first, Jueyin didn't intend to return to Mogwin Castle that night. His friend had organized a rave party, and he was intrigued to join. But his plan was interrupted by Yuchuan's call.

Usually, Yuchuan wouldn't bother him. He had always been lenient with Jueyin and let him do whatever

he pleased with the condition of not going overboard.

But when he did call Jueyin, it was never auspicious. Even if it was up to no good, Jueyin had to obligate.

Previously, Yuchuan asked Jueyin to frame Ziyue in a sex scandal, but in the end, he failed.

This time, he was supposed to find out what Muchen was up to.

Despite Jueyin's lackadaisical attitude, he knew that the presidential election was approaching and things were about to get exciting. And, Yuchuan had also been unusually active in politics recently.

Jueyin had no interest in joining politics and was going through the motions.

After he finished smoking, he headed for Yuchuan.

Standing outside of Yuchuan's room, Jueyin felt like a subordinate reporting to his superior after completing a task.

"Is it you, Jueyin? Come on in." Yuchuan said. Jueyin smoothed out his clothes and staidly entered the room.

Yuchuan stopped his work and went and sat on the sofa, beckoning Jueyin to sit with him.

A hint of disdain flashed across Jueyin's eyes. What's with the beckoning? Am I a dog to him??

But on the outside, he wore a disingenuous smile, "Dad." He called out to Yuchuan before sitting

opposite him.

As soon as he sat down, Yuchuan queried, "What did he say?"

"Muchen said he will come and see you tomorrow. Dad, you should relax a bit. No matter his decision, he is still a Mogwin and bears the Mogwin's name. Plus, don't you already know his abilities?"

Jueyin said neither, indicating that he knew Yuchuan was looking for Muchen because of the presidential election, nor did he play dumb. But the truth went unsaid.

And Yuchuan liked this about Jueyin; he didn't pretend to be ignorant, nor did he poke his nose into things that he shouldn't be involved in.

Yuchuan's other sons, who were born to his lawful wife and grew up in the Mogwin Castle, inevitably became proud and self-righteous from a young age. He was disappointed with them for being bog- standard.

As for his other illegitimate children, they stubbed on his major pet peeve for being impractical and good-for-nothing, always coveting material and power. Upon reflection, only Jueyin was closest to his heart.

Yuchuan nodded, "Muchen did convey his meaning through Zheng earlier. He said he would see me tomorrow, but I'm worried what if..."

Although the presidential election seemed like a matter only concerning the royal family, there were too many factors involved behind the scenes, and Yuchuan couldn't afford to be careless.

Jueyin reassured him, "Don't worry, Muchen isn't dumb. He would know what to do."

"Alright, you should go back and rest now. Don't party too hard. Life ahead may get perilous and rocky." Yuchuan spared a tender glance at Jueyin.

Jueyin was stunned. He then nodded, "I understand."

After Jueyin left, Yuchuan sat idle and lost in thought. After some time, he summoned a subordinate and gave some instructions before calling it a day.

...

Ziyue came out of Muchen's study room, feeling hot and embarrassed. She knew she had to do something.

As she was going downstairs, she saw a servant carrying a cage and heading outside.

Ziyue stopped her and asked, "Do these hamsters belong to Uncle Jueyin?"

It was inappropriate for her to address Jueyin by name with the servant.

The servant pulled up, "Yes, Master Jueyin forgot to take it with him just now."

"Are you going to send this to him? It's okay. You can give it to me instead." Ziyue received the cage from the servant.

She brought the cage back to her bedroom. She crouched down to observe the hamsters and thought

they looked pretty cute. But not until she was reminded of rodents and linked the hamsters to the pesky creature.

Since Muchen like hamsters so much, I shall let him sleep with the hamsters!

Ziyue put the cage on the bed and covered it with a blanket. Then, she sneaked out to the opposite room.

Muchen came back and didn't see Ziyue in the room.

He checked the time on his watch and realized it was almost eleven o'clock in the evening. Where did she go?

Frowning, he randomly picked a servant downstairs, "Where is my wife?"

"Just now, Mrs. Qin went upstairs and hasn't come down since." The servant said nervously.

Muchen let go of the servant and went back upstairs.

Ziyue wasn't in their room. Muchen paced in the corridor, and his gaze landed on the opposite room.

He knocked on the door, "Get out now, Ziyue."

Ziyue was busy installing apps on her new phone. She heard Muchen's calling but ignored him and continued with her task.

There was no response at all. He repeated, "I know you're in there. Come out now." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

He sounded cold. Ziyue was determined to ignore him lest she gets burned by his mood swing.

However...

She suddenly remembered that Muchen knew how to pick locks!
