Marry Me Quick

Chapter 201

After Nan Chuan left, Qin Muchen went to the washroom to wash his face.

Examining his own reflection in the mirror with a blank look, he found himself still looking slightly flustered, then he walked out after a while.

By the time he came out from the washroom, Bai Jingshu and Gu Hanyan, who had been waiting for him at Lumiere Jade House just now, had arrived.

He reckoned they had made their way over after calling Nan Chuan.

“Muchen, are you alright?” Gu Hanyan approached Qin Muchen anxiously as soon as she saw him, a look of concern on her face.

Qin Muchen only responded to her indifferently, “I’m alright.”

“Why…” Just as Gu Hanyan was about to pose him another question, the door of the surgery room was pushed open.

Qin Muchen immediately turned around and walked over. “Doctor, how’s she doing?” he asked anxiously.

“We’ve taken care of her wound and stitched it up. Luckily, the wound isn’t too deep so the injury isn’t too serious. After…”

The doctor was interrupted by Qin Muchen’s icy voice, “Are you sure it’s not serious when it requires stitching?” He frowned deeply, his eyes brimming with concern and rage. As a person who had gotten used to giving orders to his subordinates, he started giving out an intimidating air, causing the doctor to hold his head slightly down to avoid his eyes as best as he could.

“But… it’s not life-threatening. All she needs is enough rest and she’ll be able to leave the hospital after some time.” The doctor looked up at Qin Muchen apprehensively right after that as he was unsure whether what he said was to his satisfaction.

It was only when Qin Muchen heard that Su Ziyue’s injury was not life-threatening did he feel slightly relieved.

…

He followed Su Ziyue’s stretcher all the way to the general ward, where he verified her condition with the doctor and nurses again before allowing them to leave.

He then turned around to face Bai Jingshu and Gu Hanyan, who had been following him all that while. “You guys should head home first.”

Because Gu Hanyan was still here, he reckoned the sight of her wouldn’t please Su Ziyue when she woke up.

He still remembered the sarcastic tone Su Ziyue had used to talk to Gu Hanyan when she visited them last time.

Although what she had done was not something glorious, he still found her adorable when she was at it.

Bai Jingshu, who knew his presence was not going to be helpful, nodded in agreement and said, “Well, we’ll get going then. Just call us if you need help.” With that, he told Gu Hanyan to come along with him.

After Qin Muchen finished dealing with them, he took a seat beside the bed to check on Su Ziyue.

As she was lying on her side, he needed to lower his body in order to see her face clearly.

Her face, which was usually fair and rosy pink, looked as pale as a sheet at the moment. Both her eyes were closed, but her long and curly eyelashes were not fluttering like how they usually were.

Most of her body was enveloped in the white blanket which made her look low-spirited.

The sight of her brought a throbbing pain to his heart and caused his chest to tighten. He brushed away her hair which had scattered over her forehead before giving her a soft peck. Then, he grabbed hold of her hands and stayed that way.

That was what Gu Hanyan saw when she suddenly turned around at the entrance.

No matter how good she was at bluffing herself, all she could see in Qin Muchen’s eyes now was love and affection.

Without her realizing, she clenched her hands tightly into two fists.

Qin Muchen, a guy who she had had a crush on for years but did not reciprocate her feelings, had actually fallen in love with a girl who had appeared in his life out of nowhere.

Moreover, the girl had a bad reputation and she did not come from a prominent background; her mother had passed away when she was little and her father was a prisoner.

Gu Hanyan did not see herself inferior to Su Ziyue in any way. Why did Qin Muchen fall in love with Su Ziyue but not her?

She wouldn’t give up that easily!

…

When Su Ziyue regained consciousness, she was greeted by a stretch of whiteness as soon as she opened her eyes. She stared blankly for a moment before she decided to get up from bed.

To her surprise, a searing pain surged through her back as soon as she moved.

She let out a soft groan, which startled and awakened Qin Muchen who was sprawled by the edge of the bed.

While he pulled himself together, his eyes gleamed with hope when he saw that both her eyes were open, and his face broke into a smile without him realizing. “You’re finally awake.”

Suddenly, she thought of what had occurred before this. “Are you alright?” Her weak voice sounded unusually soft and gentle.

The smile on Qin Muchen’s face slowly vanished when he heard her question. Tightening his grip on her hands, he gazed at her intently and answered her, “I’m fine.”

Su Ziyue, who was unconvinced, questioned him again, “Really?”

Qin Muchen’s voice turned slightly raspy this time. “Yes.”

It was only after she got his confirmation did she let her eyelids droop and mumbled, “That’s great.”

Qin Muchen heard her although her voice was barely audible.

Throughout his life, he too had been injured and admitted to the hospital before. Everytime he suffered such a misfortune, there had never been a shortage of people showing concern for him.

Being different from the young masters of other wealthy families, getting injured and sick was common back in those early days when he was on his own, trying to build his own career. At that time, there were many people around him who would always remind him to take care and be careful…

In his opinion, getting injured and sick were inevitable.

Yet, there had never been anyone who actually felt relieved to see he was fine after “taking a knife” for him.

It was as though in Su Ziyue’s eyes, shielding him from the attack was something she ought to do. Yet, she was just a delicate girl while he was a strong man who wouldn’t be affected much by small injuries.

At that moment, waves ravaged Qin Muchen’s heart, causing the barriers and walls in his heart to

crumble. In the end, the waves headed straight to the deepest corner of his heart, and Su Ziyue’s name was left in its wake.

…

After he calmed himself down, he asked her whether she was hungry in a gentle voice.

With her eyes half-closed, Su Ziyue thought there was something different with Qin Muchen’s voice compared to his usual tone. Yet, she still nodded at him because she was indeed slightly hungry.

Seeing her reaction, Qin Muchen helped her up and carefully helped her lean sideways on the head of the bed before turning around to fetch a thermal flask which he had brought early that morning.

A mouthwatering scent permeated the air inside the ward as soon as he opened the cap.

Taking a deep breath, Su Ziyue asked in a weak voice, “Is it shredded chicken porridge?”

“Yes.” After answering her, he edged closer to her and spooned some porridge to feed her.

Su Ziyue was stunned for a second when she remembered that she had yet to patch things up with him prior to this. Because of that, she did not feel comfortable to let him feed her the porridge because it was something quite intimate.

After a pause, she suggested, “I can handle it myself…”

This time, Qin Muchen did not say anything. Holding the spoon in midair with no intention to withdraw it, persistence was written all over his handsome face.

Su Ziyue had no choice but to open her mouth so that he could send the spoonful of porridge into her mouth.

Throughout the process, she dared not glance at him too much, and her pale face was tinged with a layer of pink.

After she was full, Qin Muchen then used the same spoon and started having the porridge too.

Su Ziyue parted her mouth, intending to make some comments, but in the end, she dropped the idea because after all, it was not his first time doing something like that. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

He looked like he was slightly hungry judging from how fast he ate despite his elegant table manners.

Su Ziyue fixed her gaze on him, amused by how he looked when he was eating from the thermal flask.

Soon, he finished the remaining porridge after quickening his speed so that he could move forward and claim her lips.

His kiss felt somewhat eager as he pried open her lips to capture her tongue, sucking on her.

After the kiss, Qin Muchen said calmly, “It’ll be more than just a kiss next time if you look at me that way again.”
