Marry Me Quick

Chapter 543

Ziyue was startled as she could recognize Jueyin's voice. What brings him here? Yesterday, Muchen bumped into Jueyin when he went back. Is he coming again now to stir up trouble?

At this thought, Ziyue entered the living room.

"Hey, Ziyue.” Jueyin put on a wide grin when he saw Ziyue.

I'm not that close to him. Why is he calling me by my first name? Did this guy become stupid after breaking his arm?

Jueyin looked rather antic with his arm sling.

Ziyue glanced at him and averted her gaze instantly to look at Muchen, who was sitting solemnly at the side.

She went to sit beside Muchen and whispered, "What brings him here?”

Muchen glanced at Jueyin, who was eyeing Ke. His eyes were filled with disdain as he hummed, "He has nothing better to do.”

"Miss…”

The moment Jueyin spoke up, Ke ignored him and turned to Muchen. "Boss, I still have some business to take care of. Please excuse me as I return to the study room.”

As Muchen's assistant, Ke's job was to handle both his business and private matters.

She had helped Muchen investigate the Mogwin family, especially Jueyin, so she knew he had a bad reputation.

Jueyin widened his eyes in anger when Ke brushed him off and left without another word. "Hey…”

"Please leave if there's not much to do here, and I don't expect you to visit regularly in the future." Muchen had no intention of entertaining him anymore and ordered him to leave.

"Come on, Muchen. You moved away without informing us yesterday. I came to visit because I was worried about you…” Jueyin drew close to Muchen and said in a fawning manner.

Ziyue was confused. Jueyin broke his arm because she tripped him, but why was he unconcerned?

Although she framed a servant at that time, Jueyin must have seen through her because he was not naïve enough to fall into such child's play.

After Muchen went to see Jueyin last night, Ziyue thought the latter would surely turn against Muchen. Little did she expect Jueyin to show up abruptly today, currying favor with Muchen.

As such, she could not wrap her mind around the sudden change in his behavior.

"Now that you've seen me, you may leave.” Muchen uttered coldly and stood up.

Just as he was about to continue saying something, his phone rang.

He darted a glare at Jueyin. The latter shrunk his shoulders and quickly stood up. "I'll leave right away.”

Satisfied, Muchen stepped away to answer the call.

However, Jueyin did not leave immediately. He lowered his body slightly to stare at Ziyue. Unlike before this, his eyes were not filled with sycophancy but with inquisitiveness.

"Did you learn martial arts?” He asked tentatively.

"What do you mean?” Ziyue did not deny it but answered with a question.

"Yesterday, you tripped me at the right spot with just enough force. I didn't think my leg would break.” Subtle fear appeared on Jueyin's face.

Ziyue recalled Jueyin had been avoiding her after he fell yesterday. So, he's afraid of me because he thinks I know martial arts?

Ziyue was amused at how people thought that citizens from Country Z knew martial arts.

Nonetheless, she felt it was good that Jueyin had this misconception and was afraid of her.

Ziyue narrowed her eyes and feigned a profound look. "Serves you right.” She blurted coldly.

Sure enough, Jueyin's expression froze.

Ziyue was secretly thrilled as she found it entertaining to be seen as a threat.

With that, Jueyin was about to leave, but he thought of something and turned back.

Ziyue gazed at him while thinking about what he was up to this time.

"Do you know Qin Wu, the female doctor at the clinic yesterday? You've seen her. She serves grandpa." Jueyin was clueless about the entanglement between Wu and Ziyue.

Ziyue asked indifferently, "Why?”

"She was bitten by a snake last night and is still in a coma. I heard that she'll be wasted even if she can come around. The snake's venom was extremely poisonous and has caused damage to her brain, so it won't matter whether she can regain her consciousness."

Jueyin observed Ziyue's expression as he said that, hoping to catch some clues from her expression.

Although he lived a frivolous life, he was sharp-witted because he had been finding his way around life before Yuchuan brought him back to Mogwin Castle.

Wu had been serving Yuchuan for many years and was unlikely to make an enemy in Mogwin Castle. Moreover, Yuchuan took her under his wing, so no one dared to mess with her.

Mogwin Castle had tight security control. Usually, they would hardly let a fly pass through, let alone a venomous snake.

As such, Jueyin was sure that someone had planted the snake in Wu's room, and the culprit was

obvious.

"A poisonous snake?” Ziyue looked shocked. She had just met Wu yesterday, but she did not expect her to encounter such misfortune at night.

"Why are you still here?” Just then, Muchen's voice emerged from behind.

When Jueyin heard Muchen's voice, he freaked out and immediately trotted out of the house. "I'm leaving now. Goodbye!"

"Why is he so afraid of you?” Ziyue looked at Muchen in confusion and felt comforted to realize that she was not the only one who would be intimidated by him.

"It's natural for a loser like him to be a scaredy-cat." Ke's voice came forth.

The Nan siblings had been following Muchen for a long time, so their English was fluent.

Ziyue thought Ke had a point. Jueyin was not a bold man, so he naturally feared Muchen.

Suddenly, Ke winked at Ziyue. Only then did Ziyue remember she promised Ke to help her ask about Xiyi.

She signaled the 'OK' hand gesture to Ke and walked over to Muchen. "Didn't Doctor Mo come back with you?” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Why did you ask about him out of the blue?” Muchen arched his brows and gazed at Ziyue.

"Nothing. I'm just asking. Shouldn't you care more for such a talent?” Ziyue held Muchen's arm and muttered in a soft and coquettish manner.

Muchen stared at Ziyue for a few seconds and uttered with a half-smile, "You're right. I should let him return to Country J.”

"Really?” Ziyue's eyes lit up. She never thought Muchen would be thoughtful toward the others besides her.

Muchen nodded. "Of course. There's something I want to discuss with him.”

Oh well, he's not that considerate after all. It's just a coincidence.
