Marry Me Quick

Chapter 89

Qin Muchen raised his eyebrows and repeated, “With a man?”

Nan Chuan glanced at his boss's gloomy face before biting the bullet and replied, “Yes.”

Qin Muchen narrowed his eyes dangerously. He didn’t even have to think to know that this man must be Lu Shichu without a shadow of a doubt.

Not only did they have coffee together, but they also came here to have dinner together?

However, Bai Jingshu, who was not the brightest tool in the shed, asked, “Is it Lu Shichu?”

Nan Chuan had a puzzled look as his name didn’t ring a bell.

“It's Doctor Lu who treated Muchen before.” Bai Jingshu frowned, annoyed that he had such a bad memory.

“Doctor Lu and...”

Before Nan Chuan could finish his sentence, Qin Muchen had already got up and strode out.

Seeing Qin Muchen go outside, Bai Jingshu cheered, “Let’s go and catch them red-handed.”

Speechless, Nan Chuan twitched the corner of his mouth before turning around and following them.

Lu Shichu pushed the menu to Su Ziyue. “Ziyue?”

Su Ziyue looked up at him blankly. “What?”

“What are you thinking about? You look distracted. You didn’t respond even after I called you a few times. Are you feeling bad about having to pay for the meal?” Lu Shichu teased her.

“N-No.” Su Ziyue took the menu, ordered two random dishes and was about to call the waiter in here.

However, before she could do so, the private room door was opened.

It was not the waiter who came in, but Qin Muchen who she had just seen.

Nan Chuan did not follow him in there, while Bai Jingshu followed behind Qin Muchen and walked in together with him.

When Su Ziyue saw Qin Muchen coming in, her expression changed quickly. Her hands, which were under the table, gradually tightened.

Qin Muchen’s cold expression eased up as he walked to Su Ziyue and sat down. He then put a hand on her chair naturally and then held her shoulder, a cheerful look in his eyes. “You’re treating Doctor Lu, and yet you didn’t invite me too? Doctor Lu did a check-up for you yesterday. Truly, we should thank him.”

He looked handsome whenever he smiled, not to mention when he smiled so gently at her on purpose; his smile was so warm and comforting that it could even melt snow.

Thinking of the scene she saw just now, Su Ziyue smiled back at him with a cold look in her eyes. She leaned forward slightly and said with a voice so low that only the two could hear, “Don't touch me with your dirty hands.”

Hearing this, Qin Muchen's smile on his face stiffened before he quickly recovered. He leaned back slightly and increased the volume of his voice a little as he said, “Okay, I know that you and Doctor Lu have not seen each other for a long time so you want to have a nice chat with him.”

After that, he paid no regard to Su Ziyue's reaction and turned his head to look at Lu Shichu. “Doctor Lu, I would like to thank you for your help yesterday. I wouldn’t have felt at ease if it was someone else who gave her a check-up.”

Lu Shichu smiled and said politely, “You’re welcome, Mr. Qin.”

He was observant enough to tell that Su Ziyue's expression soured ever since Qin Muchen came in. However, since she didn't say anything about it, he just kept quiet as well.

The atmosphere was a bit strange.

Su Ziyue moved her chair, trying to stay away from Qin Muchen.

She didn't know why Qin Muchen came here suddenly, but she couldn't bear him touching her now.

But when she moved aside, Qin Muchen also moved aside.

Lu Shichu and Bai Jingshu both turned their heads to look at her, so she had to explain, “It was a little

crowded, so I moved here to get more space.”

Qin Muchen glanced at her with a half-smile and kicked Bai Jingshu with his long legs under the table.

Bai Jingshu reflexively turned his head to look at him, only to find Qin Muchen pretending that nothing had happened. He immediately understood what he meant.

He cleared his throat and asked Lu Shichu, “Doctor Lu, thank you for saving Muchen back then. I didn't expect that Doctor Lu and my sister-in-law would also be old acquaintances.”

When Bai Jingshu emphasised the word ‘sister-in-law’, Lu Shichu looked slightly startled.

Speaking of the last time he rescued Qin Muchen, Lu Shichu sighed. “I didn’t do much at all. Mr. Qin survived mainly because of his amazing willpower.”

Back then, Qin Muchen encountered a riot abroad and suffered a gunshot wound. He happened to meet Lu Shichu who was a volunteer, and he was operated on without anesthetic.

Lu Shichu knew Qin Muchen because of this incident.

Bai Jingshu stroked his chin and asked, “What a surprise that Doctor Lu is also from Yunzhou City. How did you and Ziyue meet?”

Since Lu Shichu didn't answer his indirect question, he had no choice but to ask him directly.

Lu Shichu glanced at Su Ziyue and said, “We were neighbors when we were young.”

When Bai Jingshu heard this, he gave Qin Muchen a complicated look. They were neighbors, which meant that they were childhood sweethearts who were very close with each other!

Qin Muchen obviously thought of this too, so his face darkened. A thought came into his mind, thereafter he raised his head and looked at Lu Shichu with a frown. “Yue doesn't have many friends. Since Doctor Lu has returned to China, you should hang out with her more often.”

Lu Shichu didn't expect Qin Muchen to say that. When Qin Muchen came in just now, he was clearly very upset. Why did his attitude suddenly change?

Although he had seen the changes in Qin Muchen's expression, Lu Shichu didn't say anything. His eyes met Qin Muchen's, and the two of them had a tacit understanding.

“Of course.”

The meal ended in a strange atmosphere.

After dinner, Su Ziyue went to pay the bill.

The cashier told her, “Miss, the order in your private room has already been paid.”

“Then I’ll pay again.”

When Qin Muchen entered the room, she already knew that he would definitely not let her pay, but why should she care? NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

She still paid anyway.

Su Ziyue took out a stack of money and put it on the counter. No matter how many times the cashier called her, she just turned around and walked straight into the private room.

In the private room—

After Su Ziyue went out, the three men sat there together awkwardly; only Bai Jingshu was trying to ease up the atmosphere.

When Lu Shichu saw Su Ziyue coming in, he quickly got up and said, “It's getting late, so I'll go back first. I’ll contact you later.”

During the meal, Su Ziyue didn't even throw Qin Muchen a glance. It was obvious the two had some matters to settle.

Being the sensible person he was, he took the initiative to leave.

When Su Ziyue heard that he was leaving, she picked up her bag. “I will send you out.”

Before Lu Shichu could refuse, Qin Muchen also stood up. “I will go send him off with you.”

“There’s no need for that. It's not like we won't see each other again,” Lu Shichu refused with a smile.

Bai Jingshu also said at this time, “I’ll send Doctor Lu off. I have some health issues recently, so I want to talk to Doctor Lu.”

Su Ziyue sneered when she heard his words. “Is it some embarrassing health issue? Why do you need

to talk to him privately?”

She clearly saw Bai Jingshu sitting next to Qin Muchen with a woman in his arms just now. All men are pigs.

As soon as Bai Jingshu heard the tone of her voice, he immediately noticed that something was wrong. He wanted to say something to diffuse the situation, but under Qin Muchen's extremely threatening gaze, he went out with Lu Shichu first so that the two could have some space.
