Marry Me Quick

Chapter 555

The two traced their steps back to the car, only to see two bodyguards standing by their vehicle.

Ziyue and Muchen did not request bodyguards to come along on their excursion, meaning the men might be Enyang's bodyguards.

Ziyue turned to Muchen, who looked serene as if he was indeed out for a walk in the park.

"Mr. and Mrs. Qin." The bodyguard called out to them in a foreign language.

They're being polite - it must be because we're from Country Z.

"Where is Enyang?" Muchen asked stoically, but a voice rang out immediately.

"Mr. Qin, good day!" Enyang responded. "We have not met for a long time!"

Enyang stepped into the light with a smile, radiating the same elegance he carried when he met Ziyue.

Ziyue blinked slowly - for a moment, she thought she had met her uncle Xingyan instead of Enyang, but that was a momentary vision.

She had never met Xingyan and would not have known what he was like.

The person before her could only be Enyang.

Enyang and his men greeted them as if they were long-lost friends.

"I knew that you were in the country. Pardon me for not inviting you for dinner - I've been occupied with work."

Enyang's smile froze as he turned to Ziyue.

"Thank you for your interest, Mr. Lin," Muchen responded coldly before guiding Ziyue to the car.

Enyang and his men moved to a side as if they never meant to make Muchen and Ziyue's life hard.

Ziyue got into the car and glanced out the window, only to see Enyang staring at her. She shuddered slightly - there were no emotions on his face. She could not tell whether he was sincere or pretentious.

"You don't have to overthink." Muchen interrupted her deep thoughts.

Ziyue turned to him and observed his serene expression, which reminded her of Enyang's smile. No one would be able to guess their emotions.

"Do you know what I'm thinking about?" Ziyue raised a brow questioningly.

She had a feeling that Muchen was hiding something from her. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"I know everything about you," Muchen responded.

Ziyue fell silent. Their days in Country J appeared peaceful, but it was slightly unnerving.

With Muchen keeping secrets, she felt her mood cloud.

…

After Muchen left for work the next day, Ziyue received a phone call from Shichu.

"I have not met you for a long time! I haven't been eating well and wondered if we could have lunch together."

Ziyue missed the teasing tone in his voice and felt that he was nonsensical, but she was keen to meet him too. "Let's have lunch if you're around!"

"Deal! Let's have lunch at noon!" Shichu said before abruptly ending the call.

"Hello?" Ziyue asked, but she only heard the phone beeping.

Shichu invited me for lunch, then hung up. What an odd thing to do... Wait a minute, does that mean he is in Country J?

Ziyue quickly dialed Shichu's number. After just one ring, Shichu picked up his phone.

"What's up?" Ziyue could hear the chuckle in his voice.

"Are you in Country J?"

"Yes," Shichu responded promptly.

Shichu and Ziyue decided on a place, then hung up.

Ziyue was overjoyed – she was bored with Muchen being so busy, but now that Shichu was here, she would have a companion!

…

Meanwhile,

Shichu felt a scalding gaze burning into him after he had ended the call in an airport in Country J. He turned towards Enxue, but the woman turned away from him.

"Did you call Ziyue?"

She had never seen Shichu speak so caringly towards anyone other than Ziyue.

"Your brother is on the way to pick you up. We should consider to part ways here."

Enxue could tell he was slightly desperate, and she knew he was desperate because he wanted to meet Ziyue.

Most people would think that Shichu was a lovely man, but Enxue knew better than anyone that his caring demeanor was a wall he put up to separate him from everyone else. The only person he would reveal his true self was Ziyue.

Enxue clenched her fists together involuntarily, her lips pale with pressure. When she realized what she

was doing, she unclenched her fists and stared back at him. "You can stay with me. My brother has prepared a place for me..."

"Thank you for your kindness, but I have a lunch appointment. Goodbye." Shichu interrupted her politely, creating distance between them.

Enxue watched as Shichu left with his luggage for a moment before dashing up to him again, unwilling to let him go.

"You need to stay with me! What would happen if I am unwell again? With you around..."

"The only thing you need to do is to keep a good regiment. You'd only get into trouble if you chose to make your life difficult." Shichu responded sternly.

Enxue felt the words that she wanted to say die on her lips. Her eyes glittered with painful tears, but she could not speak as she watched Shichu turn away from her and walk down the hall briskly.

The painful rejection gave birth to burning hatred for Ziyue.

Why does he like her? She's married with a child, yet he could not tear his heart away from her. Am I not better than her? I might have had bad health, but now that I'm healthy, I can live a long life! I love him and him only, and yet he never treasured me!

"Enxue!" Someone yelled, tearing her out of her seething anger. Enxue turned around to see her brother striding towards her, and her anger evaporated. A smile bloomed on her face.
