Marry Me Quick

Chapter 288

Compared to Qin Muchen, Lu Shichu was considered a typical wealthy kid; things had always been smooth-sailing for him since young.

Regardless of the path he took, the profession he studied or the career he pursued, he never had to put much consideration into them. He was the only son in the family, and there was only one path ahead of him—which was to inherit his father’s business.

But since he was 14, Qin Muchen had traveled overseas by himself.

Although Qin Yuchuan had wanted to help him, he turned down everything.

In other words, these two were men of different principles.

Lu Shichu had never gotten into a fight, so when he was lifted into the air by Qin Muchen at this moment, he was completely stunned as he did not see this coming.

“Let go of him, Qin Muchen!”

Su Ziyue did not know why Qin Muchen would show up here or what he had misunderstood, but he was being completely unreasonable at that moment.

With a cold look on his face, Qin Muchen gazed at her. “This is a matter between men. Don’t come over.”

“You…”

Although Lu Shichu was still being grabbed by the collar by Qin Muchen, he did not panic at all. “You can leave first, Ziyue.”

He was hoping that Su Ziyue would leave right away because there were some things which he wanted to ask Qin Muchen about.

If he had gone to look for Qin Muchen personally, Qin Muchen wouldn’t have entertained him. Moreover, it would seem contrived if he did so.

Hearing this, Su Ziyue could not help but swear at him, “Hell no!”

Lu Shichu was left speechless.

Su Ziyue couldn’t be bothered by it.

She walked up to Qin Muchen and extended her arms to tug at him. “Let him go. Do you hear me?”

Nevertheless, Qin Muchen did not budge.

“I’m going to count to three. If you don’t let go, you’ll bear the consequences!” Su Ziyue was starting to get mad too.

She thought she had made things clear with Qin Muchen in the afternoon.

However, what was the meaning of his behavior now?

Besides, Lu Shichu was a very important friend to her.

Now that he was looking for a fight with Lu Shichu for no reason, she felt very apologetic and awkward.

A hint of restraint then flashed across Qin Muchen’s face.

Pursing his lips, he was feeling displeased all over. Nonetheless, he still let go of Lu Shichu in the end.

The moment Qin Muchen let go of Lu Shichu, Su Ziyue pulled Qin Muchen away before standing between the two men.

“Excuse me, sorry for interrupting. Do you want to refill your water?”

A man wearing a suit and a badge walked over while holding a flask in his hands.

Su Ziyue took a glance at him. This person was clearly the supervisor or manager here.

A waiter must have seen Qin Muchen and Lu Shichu on the verge of getting into a fight, but he did not dare to stop them. So, the waiter must have gone to find someone else.

Coincidentally, Qin Muchen had already let Lu Shichu go.

“No thanks.” Su Ziyue pursed her lips and put on a faint smile. She was already scolding Qin Muchen inside.

When the person had left, Su Ziyue turned around once again.

Looking at Qin Muchen in a furious manner, she only uttered a word, “Sit.”

Although Qin Muchen seemed reluctant, he still took his seat.

However, he sat down beside the seat where Su Ziyue was sitting previously.

Su Ziyue knitted her brows.

To prevent Qin Muchen from acting aggressively again, she decided to sit back down.

At the very least, she would be able to stop him if Qin Muchen wanted to have a fight.

She did not know that Qin Muchen was a person who liked getting into fights so much before this.

Su Ziyue felt like she should be grateful instead.

After all, she was so cowardly when she was in front of Qin Muchen back then…

After sitting down, Su Ziyue put on a frown because she smelled the alcohol on Qin Muchen.

“You had a drink?” She turned her head to look at Qin Muchen.

Lowering his gaze, he replied calmly, “I only had one glass.”

“What would you like to order, Mr. Qin?” asked Lu Shichu at an appropriate time. While he was asking

Qin Muchen, he handed the menu to him.

However, Qin Muchen did not take the menu from Lu Shichu. It was plain to see that he was still displeased with the latter.

Su Ziyue felt exhausted all of a sudden.

When she was still with Qin Muchen, he had always acted in a hostile manner toward Lu Shichu.

Now that she had discussed divorce and wanted nothing to do with him anymore after this, Qin Muchen still treated Lu Shichu in an impolite manner.

Lu Shichu did not owe him anything.

“I’m full, Shichu. Let’s make a move.” Still feeling discontented, Su Ziyue stood up and headed out.

After taking a glance at Qin Muchen, Lu Shichu also stood up and followed her from behind, exiting the restaurant.

Looking at the couple’s leaving back with jealousy, he stood up and kicked the chair beside him after staying silent for a moment.

The chair which he kicked crashed into another table, causing the glasses that were on it to shatter on the floor.

The sound of shattering glass was not unfamiliar; it was similar to the sound of his heart.

…

“I’m very sorry,” apologized Su Ziyue in the carpark.

“It’s fine. He didn’t lay a finger on me, did he? Besides, Mr. Qin did not harbor any bad intentions.” Of course, he said all of it just to console Su Ziyue.

The initial killing intent on Qin Muchen’s face only vanished when he was looking at Su Ziyue.

Su Ziyue did not know what to say; Qin Muchen’s actions were already bearing evil intentions.

Since young, Lu Shichu had always been this gentle, kind and understanding.

“You’d better head back first. It’s already late, and you still have to go to work tomorrow.” Lu Shichu patted her shoulders. “Since you drove here, I won’t be sending you home.”

“So… I’ll leave first?”

“Sure, go ahead.”

After seeing Su Ziyue entering her car and driving off into the distance, Lu Shichu took out a cigarette and lit it.

As soon as he finished smoking his cigarette, he turned around and threw the cigarette butt into a trash can. It was then when he heard some heavy footsteps behind him.

He turned his head and saw an expected silhouette—it was Qin Muchen.

“You’re here.” Lu Shichu dusted his shirt because there were some creases from smoking. There was a sense of hostility in his eyes that usually did not exist.

“Follow me.”

After saying those two words, Qin Muchen turned around and returned to his car.

…

The two of them then drove their own cars—one following the other—as they cruised along the road.

The evening street light poured in from the car window, but the drivers’ expressions were vague.

After driving to an abandoned basketball court, Qin Muchen then parked his car.

Following him from behind, Lu Shichu got down from his car as well.

The two of them did not have any conversation with each other; they just entered the court in silence.

After taking off his suit and tossing it aside, he said, “Let’s begin.”

Although this basketball court was already abandoned, the street lights from the road by the side still shined over. As Qin Muchen’s back was facing the light, his face was hidden in the shadow, difficult to be made out.

Furthermore, he was wearing a suit of black clothes, making him seem even more dull and… creepy.

When they were at the restaurant before this, Qin Muchen had no intention of doing anything despite feeling angry when he saw Su Ziyue together with Lu Shichu.

However, he saw Su Ziyue obviously becoming upset after Lu Shichu had said something to her—she even started weeping after that.

On the other hand, Lu Shichu was wearing a white shirt. Qin Muchen and him were indeed contrasting people.

After putting his coat on the basketball stand, he said, “You don’t have to show me any mercy, Mr. Qin.”
