Marry Me Quick

Chapter 549

It had been a long time since Enyang entrusted Enxue to Muchen. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

He and Muchen had agreed to meet again in a month. However, he went out of contact a month later.

Furthermore, many things happened after that. Thus, Ziyue was briefly confused when she heard his name.

She tilted her head and looked at Chuan before asking uncertainly, "Did you say Enyang?"

Chuan nodded silently.

Ziyue was stunned briefly before saying, "Muchen is in the bath. I'll tell him later."

…

Later, Muchen came out of the bathroom and heard Ziyue's explanation. He went to the living room with her.

Chuan and Ke had already been waiting there for a while. They were going through a stack of documents and whispering between them.

Seeing Ziyue and Muchen, they immediately stopped their conversation and greeted, "Boss, Mrs. Qin."

Ziyue and Muchen sat down. Then, Chuan placed a stack of photos before them.

"These photos were taken at a jetty before dawn today. The images are unclear, but you can tell it's Enyang." After explaining, Chuan flickered his eyes between Muchen and Ziyue before finally resting on Muchen.

Muchen took a photo unhurriedly and narrowed his eyes to check it. It was hard to ascertain what he was thinking.

Ziyue leaned closer to look at the picture.

It was taken late at night. Thus, the image was unclear.

As Chuan explained, even though the photo was unclear, it was still possible to confirm that the person was Enyang.

Ziyue had lived with 'Feng Xingyan' for a long time. Thus, she recognized him instantly.

A jetty was in the photo's background, and Enyang tilted his head to say something to a subordinate beside him. Behind him, moonlight shone onto the uneven river surface, making it sparkle. The whole scene was dark and tranquil.

"Was this taken before dawn yesterday?" Muchen finished checking the photo and was about to put it down. Then, he noticed Ziyue was still looking at it, so he continued to hold it for her.

Ziyue looked at the photo for a few more seconds before turning away. Only then did Muchen put it back on the table.

"Yes, this photo was taken before dawn yesterday…" Chuan paused and did not continue out of concern for Ziyue's presence.

"Continue." Muchen leaned into his seat and seemed unbothered.

Chuan explained, "As our return is short, I've sent some people to gather information on the surroundings and dispatched others to search for Enyang. However, I did not expect to obtain something like this."

Muchen rubbed his fingers and sank into deep thoughts.

I thought Gricy had gotten rid of Enyang since we had lost contact for a long time.

Yet, after so long, Enyang unexpectedly appeared.

Enyang had an essential position in Gricy. He was astute and incredibly skilled at what he did. Therefore, it would be a waste to get rid of him.

Thus, Gricy likely meted out some punishment before sending him to work for them again.

Furthermore, Enyang loves Enxue tremendously. How can he bear not to meet her?

All these indicated that Gricy did not abandon Enyang. Therefore, Enyang is not worried about Enxue's safety. It is also why he did not show up all this while.

Ziyue looked at the photo again and asked, "What was he doing at the jetty?"

Gricy had always been involved with shady dealings. Therefore, Enyang would most likely be up to no good if he showed up at the jetty before dawn.

Muchen suddenly reached out to grab Ziyue's hand. He looked at her calmly and said, "I'm hungry. Can you make me a sandwich?"

Ziyue glanced at the clock on the nearby wall. It was nearly lunchtime.

Judging from Muchen's habits, he would not ask her to make him a sandwich at this hour. Instead, he would want to have lunch earlier.

Thus, she understood why he made such a request. It was to get her to leave.

Ziyue was disappointed. Although she knew Muchen did not want her to know about troubling matters, she still felt bewildered. She wondered when everything would finally become peaceful again.

"Sure, please wait for a moment. It will be ready soon," Ziyue said and was about to leave.

However, Muchen suddenly added, "Wait a second."

"Why…"

Her word disappeared into Muchen's kiss.

His kiss was comforting but brief.

They separated as soon as their lips touched.

He was concerned that she would worry. That was why he kissed her to comfort her.

But…

Ziyue glanced at Chuan and his sister and found them looking out the window. Her face flushed in embarrassment. She glared at Muchen before heading to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Ziyue sent the maids away and began to prepare lunch.

She knew Muchen was not hungry. Therefore, she decided not to make him a sandwich but cook lunch for everyone.

…

Meanwhile, after Ziyue left the living room, Chuan gave Muchen a few documents.

They were rarely in Country J during the past two years, but Ke had always lived here. However, she did not have the skills or time to gather information from various aspects.

While Muchen's companies and properties were ethical, he had resorted to unclean means. Thus, having been in Country J for many years, he needed to pay attention to changes in power and various situations within the country.

Especially since the presidential election was near, and people from each side had already begun making their moves.

Muchen ceased to be able to rely solely on ethical means since Aika dragged him into this mess a long time ago.

Thus, he could only act according to the situation to preserve his interest and safety.

Muchen looked down to hide the turbulent emotions in his eyes.

Then, he took the documents Chuan placed before him and briefly flipped through them before putting them down.

He raised his chin slightly, and his expression was hard to read. "I need you to continue following Enyang. Don't confront him unless it is necessary. Also, I need you to check whether Enxue came to Country J recently."

Chuan's expression changed slightly upon hearing him. He looked at Muchen as if to confirm something with him.

Usually, Muchen would not bother to explain, but he gave Chuan a definite answer this time. "It's as you think."

When Chuan heard Muchen's order to keep track of Enxue's movements, he thought Muchen planned to use her to threaten Enyang when needed.

People like them were skilled in using others' weaknesses for their aim.

It was a despicable method. Muchen had not resorted to it for a long time.

Therefore, Chuan was unsure just now and had to confirm it with Muchen.

Unexpectedly, he received confirmation from him.

"I understand. I'll make the necessary arrangements." Chuan nodded slightly and left right after that.

Ke also left with Chuan. Before leaving, she looked at Muchen as if wanting to say something but stopped herself.
