Marry Me Quick

Chapter 199

At noon, Su Ziyue went to the police station to collect her cash.

She made use of the opportunity to glean some more information, but the police officer only offered her an

ambiguous answer, which cemented her opinion that it was Qin Muchen who had helped her.

She glanced down at her purse to find the cash that she had previously lost inside.

It baffled her as to what exactly Qin Muchen was thinking.

…

At the end of the day, she had still yet to make up her mind on whether she should seek Qin Muchen out to ask him

about the matter.

As she happened to have some unfinished work, she decided to work overtime for another hour.

By the time she left Su Tower, the sky was already dark, and all the street lights were already lit.

The sky always turned dark unusually early during winter.

Clutching her jacket closer to herself while she was on her way out, she looked up ahead and spotted a man who

was smoking, his body leaning against the head of his car.

Under the illumination of the street lights, she could see little puffs of smoke coming out from his mouth before it

dissipated in the air.

She halted, and her eyes landed on the man who had caused her to be preoccupied all day long.

Why was he here?

Qin Muchen, who seemed to have noticed that he was being stared at, turned around, and his eyes landed on Su

Ziyue.

The next instant, he stubbed out the cigarette in his hand before approaching her with large strides.

While he was walking, he removed the scarf which was wrapped around his neck before placing it around hers

when he reached her side.

The texture of the scarf, which came with his unique scent, felt comfy.

Su Ziyue was stunned for a moment by his actions, and her heart somewhat melted.

She moved her hand to feel the cold scarf around its edges and looked up at him with her lips pursed. At last, she

decided to voice her doubt. “How come you’re here?”

Because of what had happened at noon, deep down inside, she couldn’t help but look forward to meeting him.

Did he make this trip over here just to pick her up?

Her speculation was not groundless, because based on his cold scarf, he had been standing there for some time

already.

Qin Muchen said in a relaxed voice, “I need a female companion for a dinner I’m attending later.”

His voice was monotonous. Su Ziyue couldn’t see his expression clearly because he was standing against the light.

Disappointment started spreading in her heart.

“Oh, do you?” So, was he here to pick her up just because he needed a female companion?

Qin Muchen frowned slightly at her airy tone, but he did not explain to her that the dinner was actually hosted by

Bai Jingshu.

He had planned to bring Su Ziyue along, knowing that Bai Jingshu would invite Gu Hanyan to the dinner.

Feeling dejected, Su Ziyue held her head low and fixed her gaze on the ground without saying anything else.

Qin Muchen, who could sense her slightly downcast mood, only said calmly, “Get in the car.”

He turned around to get into the car and pushed open the door to the front passenger seat.

…

The inside of the car was so quiet that it felt slightly dreary as it was moving along the vast highway.

Brushing her hands against the scarf which was slowly losing its coldness, Su Ziyue turned to look out of the

window.

Suddenly, she lost the urge to ask Qin Muchen about why she had been asked to go and collect her cash by the

police.

Qin Muchen seemed to be focused on the road ahead, but in fact, part of his attention was on her.

A deep crease formed on his forehead when he noticed that she was leaning on the window, looking glum. Was she

really that reluctant to spend time with him?

“You…” can go home if you don’t feel like going.

Before he could utter the remaining part of his sentence, his car was suddenly encircled by several cars which had

charged in his direction out of nowhere.

Just now, he had slowed down his car because he had to divert his attention to Su Ziyue to talk to her. When he

noticed the cars which were surrounding him, the first thing he thought about was the fact that Su Ziyue was inside

his car, and he had no choice but to stop because he could not fight his way out.

Qin Muchen did not make it too far from Su Tower and the area was mostly occupied by office buildings. Because it

was nighttime, few pedestrians could be seen roaming around the area and few cars were on the road.

On top of that, the menacing look of these people would just further deter anyone who happened to pass by from

concerning themselves with the matter.

Su Ziyue came back to her senses as the car suddenly screeched to a halt. “What’s going on?”

There were three cars surrounding them. At that moment, the people in the car had already alighted, and there

were more than ten people.

Ignoring Su Ziyue’s question, Qin Muchen’s eyes turned pensive. He then tossed his phone to her, looking utterly

calm and composed. “After I get out of the car, lock the doors and stay inside.”

Without giving time for Su Ziyue to respond, he pushed open the car door and got out.

After that, he swiftly closed the door and confronted the men with a frigid voice, “Who sent you guys?”

Despite asking the question, he already had several suspects in his mind.

Every single one of them was wearing full black attire, a long stick in their hands. One of them stepped forward and

retorted, “Don’t you know who you offended? Is it even necessary to ask?”

Right after his question was heard, some of the bunch started sniggering.

Staring at the bunch of guys with an icy look, Qin Muchen’s hands, which were resting on both sides of his body,

slowly clenched. Once again, he cast a glance back at the car with concern.

He could not see Su Ziyue clearly, but she could see him from the inside.

She obediently locked the car as per his instructions right after he left.

The opposing party was made up of more than ten guys, each holding heavy wooden sticks in their hands. As she

knew nothing about fighting, she was sure that not only would she be beaten up as soon as she got out of the car,

she would be a burden to Qin Muchen too.

Feeling slightly anxious, she was unsure how good a fighter Qin Muchen was too because she had never seen him in

action before.

Although she could not hear their voices, they seemed like they were about to start fighting soon.

She kept telling herself to stay calm.

Yes, she needed to call the police during this kind of situation.

She dialed 999 on her phone but soon realized her decision was foolish before she actually called the number.

Under such circumstances, the police would not be able to reach them in time.

She took Qin Muchen’s phone and dialed Bai Jingshu’s number, which was the first number she came across in his

phone, but he did not answer after a long wait.

Therefore, she ended the call and called Nan Chuan instead, who picked up the call very quickly. “Mr. Qin, how can I

help you?”

Sounding anxious and urgent, Su Ziyue told him, “Nan Chuan, it’s me. A bunch of guys surrounded Qin Muchen and

I when we just made it out of Su Tower. They have more than ten men…”

Nan Chuan cut her off before she could complete her sentence by saying nonchalantly, “Do they? No problem, Miss

Su. Please don’t worry. I’ll bring our men over there now.”

“You have to act fast because they have more than ten people…” Su Ziyue emphasized.

“Miss Su, please don’t worry. Mr. Qin isn’t as amateur a fighter as you might think.” Nan Chuan hung up on her after

that.

Amateur?

She had never thought that someone who could not beat up ten guys all by himself was amateurish.

She knew that the odds were stacked against a man who was outnumbered.

Yet, she realized that Nan Chuan was right ten minutes later.

After everyone of the bunch was knocked out by Qin Muchen, Su Ziyue quickly opened the car door and urged, “Get

in the car now.”

Qin Muchen turned around to glance at her and instructed icily, “Stay in the car.”
