Marry Me Quick

Chapter 550

Muchen sat in the living room alone for a long time before getting up and heading to the kitchen.

Ziyue was cooking steak in a pan.

She had hastily tied her long, curly hair into an untidy ponytail, revealing her ears. Furthermore, she wore an apron. It made her look like a housewife and appear even more gentle than usual.

Muchen quietly approached her from behind. As he was about to hug her, she suddenly sensed something and turned around.

The sudden sight of Muchen standing behind her caused her to jump in shock.

"You scared me. Can't you make some noise when you walk?" Ziyue complained. She still looked frightened.

Muchen raised his eyebrows and blinked. Although his face remained expressionless, one could sense a hint of helplessness in him.

Ziyue pursed her lips. She thought she must be delusional to think that Muchen seemed helpless before her.

"Is lunch ready?" Muchen glanced at the pan and commented indifferently, "The steak is nearly overdone."

Ziyue immediately turned around and found the steak had been cooked until it lost all trace of redness. She shouted, "Argh! My steak!"

Then, she rushed to remove it from the pan.

"It's overcooked. You can have this one." Ziyue served him the slice of steak and glared at him hatefully.

Muchen had been living here all year round and had grown to prefer his steak medium done. Ziyue had timed the cooking of the steak, but Muchen interrupted her and caused it to be overcooked.

Ziyue was about to cook another one for Chuan. She noticed Muchen standing still at the side and asked, "Have you finished the discussion?"

"Yes," Muchen replied but remained still in his spot.

"I would like to visit Qin Wu in the hospital." Ziyue decided to voice out her thoughts.

As expected, Muchen did not oppose but asked, "When?"

She asked him, "When will you be free to go with me?"

"Anytime."

"Sure."

…

During lunch, Muchen expressionlessly pushed his steak to Chuan. "I heard the doctor say you have gastric issues and must eat well-cooked food."

Chuan looked at the well-done steak Muchen pushed to him and gave his medium well steak to Muchen without protest. "Thank you for your concern, Boss."

Medium well steak is the best! How can it not be well-cooked?

But a well-done steak is terrible! It's like chewing on grass.

Also, since when did I have gastric issues? Which doctor said it?

Still, Chuan only kept these complaints in his mind.

He had lived under Muchen's iron rule for a long time and did not dare to protest.

"Chuan, are you having gastric issues?" Ziyue looked up at Chuan with concern.

But Muchen interrupted Chuan before he had a chance to speak. "Xiyi is around. He can easily deal with such a minor issue."

Ziyue thought his words made sense and nodded. She did not ask any more questions.

Chuan had no choice but cut into his steak dejectedly.

He tried to garner pity from Ziyue just now.

Unfortunately, Muchen would not even allow him the chance.

Is there a subordinate who suffers more than me?

…

Ziyue told Muchen at noon that she wished to visit Wu at the hospital. Muchen kept it in mind and went with her that afternoon.

Wu spent most of her life working as Yuchuan's personal doctor and never married. Therefore, Yuchuan was grateful for her dedication.

Thus, he arranged for her to be admitted into an elite private hospital when something happened to her.

When Ziyue exited the car before the hospital, she looked at the building and said, "Grandpa values Dr. Qin a lot."

Muchen stood behind her and smirked before replying indifferently, "Yes."

His grandfather indeed cared about his subordinates.

They then headed to Wu's room and saw two bodyguards guarding the door.

Yuchuan arranged for the bodyguards to be there. Thus, they knew Ziyue and Muchen.

They saw Ziyue and Muchen and bowed respectfully. "Master Muchen, Ms. Su."

Ziyue let go of Muchen's arm and stepped forward with a smile. "We would like to see Dr. Qin."

The bodyguards immediately opened the door for them.

"Thank you." Ziyue nodded and pulled Muchen into the room with her.

The room was spacious and bright.

Ziyue approached the bed and saw Wu attached to various medical tubes.

Her face was pale and devoid of any color. She looked fragile and lifeless on the hospital bed.

Ziyue's heart trembled slightly.

She was filled with hatred for Wu in the past and even wondered when Wu would drop dead.

Although she went to see Wu and said something harsh that day, she never considered seeking revenge against her.

Ever since Zixi returned to Ziyue, she began to revere the miracles of life.

She believed Zixi's return was a gift from God and was immensely grateful. Therefore, she never thought of doing anything to Wu.

In actuality, she did not have the chance.

Wu now lay lifelessly in bed. Ziyue would never do something to harm a patient.

Ziyue and Muchen had only been in the room for less than five minutes when Wu's lead doctor arrived.

The doctor was a bespectacled middle-aged woman.

She had prominent facial features and looked like someone from Country J. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Her hair was perfectly curled without a stray strand in sight. She wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on her high nose bridge. The lenses were clear as glass, but her eyes seemed dull due to age. She wore a white coat and appeared emotionless and unfriendly.

However, she was surprised as soon as she saw Muchen. "Mr. Randy!"

Ziyue rarely heard anyone call Muchen by that name and found it strange.

It seemed the doctor knew Muchen and said excitedly, "Is it you? It must be my lucky day."

The doctor spoke in a foreign language and kept chatting non-stop. She sometimes sounded incoherent.

Ziyue sighed. She almost forgot that Muchen was also known as Diamond King and was highly revered by many.

Muchen's expression remained stern, and he said indifferently, "Doctor, we are here to visit the patient."

"I'm sorry. It's my first time meeting you in person. I was too excited." The doctor appeared apologetic.

Then, she walked to the bed and checked Wu's condition. "Ms. Qin's condition is unoptimistic. Until now, she had only woken up once and was incoherent."

The doctor sounded regretful as she explained.
