Chapter 113 Bully Me Again?
After lunch, Su Ziyue took out the phone and put it in her bag without even looking at it. She then went back to the company with An Xia. An Xia was still talking about Gu Hanyan, but Su Ziyue was preoccupied with other things on her mind.
Before they reached the company, An Xia tugged at Su Ziyue’s arm and asked, “Ziyue, is the person in that car Mr. Qin?” When Su Ziyue heard the words ‘Mr. Qin’, she was taken aback and instinctively looked in the direction of An Xia’s gaze only to see a black Bentley parked in front of the company.
The car was parked against the traffic flow, its window wound down to reveal the outline of the person inside. The person was holding a cigarette in his hand with his arm resting on the edge of the car window, but because of the distance, his expression could not be seen clearly.
An Xia trotted forward. Then, she turned around and said to Su Ziyue with a smile, “It’s really Mr. Qin!”
Su Ziyue smiled expressionlessly before turning away and walking back to the company.
An Xia stood rooted to the spot, stunned. What’s going on?
Mr. Qin was probably here for Su Ziyue, but she thought that there was something wrong with her good friend’s attitude.
Did they get into a fight?
Seeing that Su Ziyue had already walked into the company, An Xia didn’t stay any longer; she trotted to catch up with her, but still she couldn’t help but glance back.
Unexpectedly, she turned around and met Qin Muchen’s eyes.
Although she couldn’t see his expression clearly, An Xia was sure that Qin Muchen was looking at her.
To be precise, he was looking at Su Ziyue. An Xia smiled at him and ran after Su Ziyue.
…
In the car, Qin Muchen’s eyes followed the figure of the slender woman closely, opened the door and got out of the car.
When Su Ziyue was about to pass through the company’s door, he stepped forward to catch up.
At that moment, his phone rang; it was a call from his assistant. Qin Muchen picked it up. He frowned when he heard what the caller said and turned to get into the car.
Su Ziyue, who had reached the entrance of the company, turned around abruptly only to see that the Bentley had turned around and was about to leave.
Biting her lip, she glared at it bitterly; she then turned and walked toward the elevator.
Very good.
He didn’t go home the whole night, and was even spotted being with Gu Hanyan. Yet, he only called at noon.
Nonetheless, why did he come and go so quickly?
Su Ziyue returned to the office in a sulky mood. Noticing her unusual expression, An Xia didn’t ask any further.
Upon returning to her seat, an idea came into An Xia’s mind as she thought of something.
She took out her phone and searched the news about Gu Hanyan again while recalling Qin Muchen’s Bentley in her mind.
She then took a closer look at the profile of the man in the photo, feeling the similarities between the two.
She widened her mouth in disbelief and murmured, “No way. Mr. Qin cheated on her with my goddess, Yan?”
No wonder Su Ziyue looked distant after seeing the news in the restaurant just now; this was what had happened.
…
Back at the office, Su Ziyue took out her phone and saw only three missed calls displayed on her screen.
Su Ziyue put down the phone with a scornful smile. He is indeed a steady and restrained man. He didn’t come home for the entire night and created a scandal with a female celebrity, but he only called me three times.
Su Ziyue was a little absent-minded throughout the afternoon.
When it was time to get off work, she drove toward Cloud Bay habitually, but she abruptly slammed on the brakes halfway.
She stopped on the side of the road and thought for a moment before turning around to return to the previous small apartment.
Fortunately, she didn’t take away all the things in the apartment; she would be able to live there now after cleaning up a little.
She didn’t want to see Qin Muchen for the time being, for she was afraid that she could not help but quarrel with him.
It wasn’t going to work with people like Qin Muchen, and she didn’t like to kick up a fuss either.
However, she didn’t expect that she would find Qin Muchen inside her apartment.
When she opened the door and went in, she didn’t notice anything off about it. After she changed her shoes and walked to the living room, she saw Qin Muchen sitting calmly on the armchair.
He was meticulously dressed in his suit with a calm expression on his face. He might have been sitting there for some time; his voice was slightly hoarse when he spoke, seeming as though he had not spoken in a long time.
“You’re home.”
His tone was flat, void of emotion.
“Why are you here?” asked Su Ziyue instinctively.
Qin Muchen glanced at her and replied concisely, “Waiting for you.”
“Oh, I’m here already. Can you leave now?” Su Ziyue said as she took a step back and gestured for him to go out.
She had the same calm expression on her face similar to Qin Muchen’s.
Qin Muchen stared at her deeply. After a while, he spoke again in a slightly helpless tone, “Are you going to bully me again?”
Bully him?
Su Ziyue was stunned at this. How could she possibly bully him? She couldn’t help but sneer. “You’re exaggerating because I dare not to do so. If you’re not leaving, I’ll go.”
I can just stay in a hotel. It’s not a big deal!
“Su Ziyue!”
Qin Muchen called her name and approached her with a few strides before grabbing her arm with a touch of anger on his face.
Su Ziyue had been with him for so many months, so she knew that he was angry when he called her name using a stronger tone of voice.
However, there was nothing for him to be angry about. She wasn’t the one who didn’t go home all night without calling in advance and even had a scandal with someone else the next day.
“Let go.” Su Ziyue didn’t shake off his hand, but she glared at him.
He was very tall, and she was still a bit shorter than him even when she wore high heels.
Qin Muchen locked his dark eyes on her with his lips pursed into a straight line, his expression a little tensed.
After a few seconds, he suddenly relaxed his expression slightly, and his tone became a little sad as he said, “You don’t let me explain anything, nor do you go home. You also didn’t answer my phone and ignored me. Aren’t you bullying me?”
Su Ziyue was rendered speechless.
Although she thought there was something wrong in his words, she couldn’t refute him somehow.
“Okay.” Su Ziyue nodded her head. “You’re going to explain, aren’t you? Let go of me first. We can sit down and talk.”
When Qin Muchen heard her words, he was dumbfounded for a split second; he didn’t believe that she would be so agreeable.
Su Ziyue stared at him impatiently. “Get off me. Why are you still grabbing my arm?!”
Qin Muchen noticed her serious expression and let go of her hand.
Su Ziyue shook her arm off, walked to the sofa and sat down. Throwing her bag away and crossing her slender legs, she spoke with her arms folded across her chest, “Say it.”
She looked at Qin Muchen with her seemingly glistening eyes; she looked like she was all ears without any signs of anger at all.
Qin Muchen didn’t seem to believe her peace at the moment, and a trace of suspicion flashed across his eyes.
Is she no longer mad at me?
