Marry Me Quick

However, the thickness of his clothes made it difficult for him to put them on. Unintentionally, Zixi ended up rolling

up one of his sleeves layers within the top.

He tugged and struggled for quite some time, but his efforts to free the trapped sleeve were in vain. Frustrated, he

creased his forehead. Yet he managed to keep his composure and refrain from throwing a tantrum.

Over here, Ziyue found the sight adorable and contemplated her options. Hmm... Should I capture this cute

moment and share it with friends?

With this idea in mind, she retrieved her phone and approached Zixi, asking, "Zixi, are you trying to clothe

yourself?"

Zixi was oblivious to Ziyue's arrival as he was engrossed in battling the stubborn sleeve.

However, as soon as he saw Ziyue, his previous display of self-independence vanished instantly. He pursed his lips

and pitifully waved his hand, pleading, "Please help me, Mommy."

Ziyue couldn't hold back her laughter, "Alright, Mommy will help you to unroll the sleeve, and then you can carry on

doing it yourself."

After saying that, she skillfully untangled the rolled-up sleeve from within Zixi's top.

With the sleeve untangled, Zixi found that putting on the remaining clothes became much more manageable.

However, his arms and legs still wrestled with the task.

Ziyue shared the video with her friends on social media as she watched him succeed in clothing himself.

She then fetched a red jacket for Zixi, but the latter pushed her away and leaped off the bed, searching for a

specific jacket in the wardrobe.

So, it turned out that he was looking for the same outfit he had worn for yesterday's photo session.

Ziyue was startled then she burst into laughter.

After breakfast, as usual, she sent Zixi to kindergarten, but this time, she brought along a few bodyguards.

However, she didn't leave immediately after dropping him off.

Maybe Muchen will appear again.

Sitting in the car, she took out her phone and scrolled through her social media feed.

The video she uploaded about Zixi struggling with his clothes received likes and amusing comments from her

friends.

'You're like a wicked stepmother. The poor boy almost cried, and you didn't help him.'

'Yea! Only a stepmother would laugh and do nothing to help!'

'OMG! He's so adorable trying to clothe himself at such a young age. So cute!'

Ziyue responded wittily to each comment, saying, 'If you're so fond of him, go make a baby of your own!'

After her reply, a flurry of laughing emojis flooded in.

Her friends were simply envious of her being a young mom and blessed with an incredibly adorable son!

Putting her phone away, Ziyue turned her gaze toward the car window and scanned outside for an entire hour, but

there was no trace of Muchen.

There was a meeting scheduled at ten o'clock. She needed to hurry back to the office soon.

Once again, she instructed the bodyguards to ensure Zixi's safety before setting off for the office.

When Ziyue arrived at the office, Ke caught up with her and quipped, "Suddenly, I'm feeling the urge to have a son.

Well, a daughter would work too. Having a child might soften my strong personality!"

"Well, I'm really looking forward to it. After all, you'rea real catch here.. Since you joined, you've been receiving

flowers daily, right? Or has no one caught your eye yet?"

Ziyue didn't think Xiyi was worthy of Ke's hand in marriage.

While Xiyi had feelings for Ke, he was resolute in his decision to join MSF, and Ke had no clue when he would return

or if he would make it back safely.

Ke was beautiful and capable, highly regarded at LK headquarters, and equally popular at the LK branch in Yunzhou

City. Furthermore, Ke's admirers were some of the most exceptional and accomplished men. Ziyue believed that Ke

had the opportunity to pursue a fresh start without Xiyi.

"I don't entertain such thoughts for now. Getting married before the age of thirty might undermine the image of a

feminist, don't you think?"

Ke smiled and walked past Ziyue, making her way to the front.

"Wanting to get married at a certain age has nothing to do with being a feminist. If you say something like that

online, you'll be drowned by backlashes," Ziyue responded nonchalantly as she caught up from behind.

Ziyue knew that Ke was still pining for Xiyi.

To think of it, it was an uncanny discovery that Muchen was surrounded by two loyal and stubborn- natured

assistants to work for him.

Oh well, everyone had their own predetermined path to take.

Midway through the meeting, Ke excused herself to take a phone call.

When she returned, her countenance appeared distant, as if something was troubling her.

Ziyue knew something must have cropped up and decided to streamline the remaining matters, swiftly wrapping up

the meeting.

Once alone in the meeting room, Ziyue asked Ke, "What's wrong?"

Ke looked worried as she replied, "It was a call from LK headquarters. They said my brother hasn't been to the

office for several days."

Ziyue paused momentarily, then remarked, "Yesterday was the weekend."

"The person mentioned that they've been pulling overtime at headquarters for the past month. Each day, they

were buried in work. Given the busy schedule, it's hard to believe my brother wasn't at the office..."

After a brief pause, Ke reluctantly voiced her suspicion, "I have a feeling something might have happened to

Chuan."

Ziyue's face turned ashen upon hearing this.

The incident from last night suddenly rushed back to her mind.

Since it had already gotten late last night, Ziyue refrained from informing Ke at that time. And this morning, until

now, she didn't consider it anything significant, so she chose not to mention it to Ke.

Ziyue clenched her teeth and recounted the incidents from last night to Ke, including her own speculation, "I

suspect it could be someone sent by my grandfather. Even if they weren't directly affiliated with him, these people

must have sinister intentions."

Ke's face paled, her expression filled with worry.

Being currently away in Yunzhou City and couldn't return immediately. There was no word from her boss, and she

couldn't just leave. What was she supposed to do now?

Suddenly, Ziyue recalled that she hadn't informed Ke about Muchen still being alive.

"Oh, but I forgot to tell you the good news."

"What is it?" Ke asked.

Ziyue locked eyes with Ke and said with conviction, "Muchen is still alive, and he's in Yunzhou City."

"Really?" Ke still had some doubts.

Ziyue assured her confidently, "No doubt about it!"

"Wonderful!" It was a tremendous relief to know her boss was still alive.

"Let's get in touch with our contacts in Country J and ask them to investigate right away. We shouldn't panic at this

moment."

Ziyue comforted Ke and started making phone calls.

When Ziyue informed Yichen about the situation, he immediately returned to the office.

Yichen's expression mirrored concern, "I tried getting in touch with Chuan a couple of days ago but couldn't reach

him. I figured he was caught up with work and didn't think much of it."

"Who could be behind this?"

"Could be anyone."

Yichen's response was vague, but Ziyue suddenly had an inkling. She asked him, "Has Muchen mentioned anything

to you?"

"To be precise, he hasn't shared much. But during our conversations, I sensed something unusual,

and..."xo.com fast update

Ziyue's frustration grew, "Spill it. No need to keep any suspense."

"There's no need to hold back at a time like this."

Yichen obligated and came clean, "Mr. Qin's assets have already been transferred back to the country. Chuan has

been staying there recently, dealing with the remaining matters. He could have wrapped things up and come back

in these past few days."

"What are you talking about?" Ziyue was puzzled.

She had no idea about any of this.
