Marry Me Quick

Chapter 42

Qin Muchen was sitting there lazily; his elegant posture and unique aura made it seem picturesque.

There was a cigarette in between his slender fingers. Separated by the circling smoke, Su Ziyue could not make out his face momentarily.

Her gaze then turned to the man standing at the side and her voice was almost trembling. "Mr. Nan? What did you address him as?"

The man standing beside Qin Muchen was indeed Nan Chuan.

Nan Chuan's expressions froze as he turned his head to gaze at Qin Muchen with a troubled look on his face.

Qin Muchen still maintained his pose when Su Ziyue came in, not even moving a muscle.

Nan Chuan was looking at him; similarly, Su Ziyue had turned her head to look at him as well.

Qin Muchen inhaled half a cigarette before he slowly got up. After brushing the creases on his suit, he lifted his gaze that was deep and serene to look at Su Ziyue.

"Didn't you go back home? Why did you come back?"

His voice was still soothing like the sound of water flowing, but it carried a hint of coldness.

Looking at Qin Muchen who seemed unbothered, she did not utter a word. Instead, she took a step back with a panicked look on her face.

Shouldn't I be staying at your place since we're married? I don't have a house in Yunzhou City.

This is my friend's car.

That bottle of wine has been paid by Mr. Qin...

There was a moment of silence.

She felt like she had discovered some flaws now that she recalled all those details which she had neglected.

However, he had helped her chase those reporters away and promised to marry her when she was at a loss; that was why she chose to trust him and had never doubted him before.

Seeing that she was hesitant and was not saying anything, Qin Muchen walked up to her. "It's all right now, so let's go home."

Su Ziyue screamed at him, "Don't come near me!"

Qin Muchen stopped walking forward.

"You're the boss of Lumiere Jade House?"

"That's me," replied Qin Muchen bluntly.

"Muchen, are you finished with your affairs? Su Ziyue's watch..."

Bai Jingshu spoke as he made his way into the room. The moment he stepped inside, he instantly saw Su Ziyue, who was standing nearby. He was so shocked that he stepped out of the room to look at the door number before re-entering the room once again.

"Everyone is here...." Bai Jingshu rubbed his nose as his voice got softer.

Hearing Qin Muchen's affirmation, Su Ziyue felt like a place in her heart had instantly crumbled.

Remembering that she was previously worried that Gong Zeyang would harm him, she was amused at the thought of this.

It was simply amusing.

The word 'why' was lingering in her throat, yet she had forcefully swallowed it.

The power behind the throne of Lumiere Jade House was putting in so much effort to approach a lady who had returned to the country with a bad reputation; he surely had his motives.

So, everything turned out to be fake.

The gentle caring was fake; the considerate actions were fake; sincerely marrying her was also fake.

Su Ziyue straightened her back and slightly lifted her chin. Her cold gaze was staring at Qin Muchen before she swiftly turned around and dashed out of the door; she had even forgotten to take her watch.

Nobody chased after her.

Very well.

Su Ziyue kept pressing the down button when she reached the lift, but the door to the lift still did not open. Then, she realized that the lift was still on the 17th floor.

Bang!

She kicked at the door of the lift fiercely but had exerted too much force, causing her foot to be in so much pain that she clenched her teeth.

She then circled to the other side and used the stairs instead.

After exiting Lumiere Jade House, she quickly hailed a cab and got into the car. She was feeling dizzy and her mind was blank.

When she lifted her head once again, she realized that something was wrong; it was not the modern street view outside the car window. Instead, it was a dimly-lit alley with only a handful of streetlights.

"Mister, this is not the way back to my home." Su Ziyue told the driver while probing for her phone in her bag.

The driver's voice sounded slightly suspicious. "There's no mistake-it's here."

With that, the driver let out a couple of deep chuckles.

Su Ziyue was suddenly alert so she hurriedly took out her phone. She opened her call log and simply dialed a number, not knowing who she was calling.

The next moment, the car door was opened and her phone was snatched away. Then, she was dragged out from the car.

She opened her mouth in an attempt to shout for help, but the person who dragged her out had prepared some duct tape to seal her mouth.

After that, she was tossed into another car-she was even blindfolded.

Su Ziyue felt a rush of coldness in her heart, making her hands and feet freeze.

Slam!

The car door was shut before she heard a deep, unfamiliar man's voice beside her. "Send her over. The rest of us are going out for some fun tonight..."

Another suspicious voice was heard. "I see that this one is good-looking..."

She heard a slap before hearing that voice again. "You don't get a share in this. We'll discuss more after we get the money."

Get the money? Who is paying them to kidnap me?

Su Ziyue struggled around and let out a few moans, wanting to attract their attention; she could not move or speak at all now, and escape was simply an impossible matter.

That man's hoarse voice yelled at her, "Why are you so noisy? We're almost there!"

Then, he gave her a pat on the buttocks.

Su Ziyue froze and did not dare to move anymore.

The car was shaky and it finally came to a stop after driving for quite some time; she was then carried for a distance before she was tossed out.

There was a soft cushion underneath her. It was a bed...

She was still blindfolded so she could not see where she was; she also could not make a sound and could not move her limbs either.

If someone came in and wanted to harm her, she would have no power to resist at all.

Su Ziyue then panicked at this moment, and drops of sweat had formed on her forehead.

The person who carried her inside had left; she could sense that she was the only person in the room.

After rolling on the bed for a moment, she rolled to the side of the bed and made her waist steady before using her legs-which had been tied up-to probe the floor.

After using so much effort, she finally stood up.

There was a carpet on the floor-the very soft type. It seemed like sheep's wool, and the quality was good as well.

This meant that the person who kidnapped her was surely a wealthy person.

As soon as this thought came to mind, Su Ziyue immediately thought of Mu Ninghui.

At this moment, there were footsteps outside the door followed by a coquettish voice. "Welcome in, Young Master Mu."

Su Ziyue froze at the spot and did not dare to move a muscle when she heard this voice.

It was Mu Ninghui.

With a click, the door was opened. Su Ziyue then sensitively tilted her to listen to the conversation.

"Tsk, what is this? Why did you tie and gag her? If you injured her, you'll never hear the end from me!"

"Alright, alright..."

The blindfold was then taken off and the tape on her mouth was also torn off; Su Ziyue shut her eyes to get used to the sudden light.

Su Ziyue instantly saw Mu Ninghui standing in the center, surrounded by a few other men.

Clenching her teeth, she cried out furiously, "Mu Ninghui!"

"I'm listening, so you don't have to shout. You're pretty, Miss Su. You're so beautiful even when you're angry; you're making my heart itch."

Ning Muhui's eyes ran wildly from her head to toe, and his gaze seemed like he wanted to execute her at the spot.
