Chapter 68

The elevator finally stopped at the level where Su Ziyue’s unit was located.

Li Jingqi and her walked out of the elevator one after another and went back to their respective units.

The moment Su Ziyue stepped into her unit, she could no longer control her facial expression.

As she had walked barefoot all the way from Qin Muchen’s mansion, it seemed like she had stepped on something

along the way which had caused a mild piercing pain on the soles of her feet.

After taking a quick shower in the bathroom, she slumped on her bed right away. Amidst her drowsiness, she

dreamt of things in her childhood, and it was only until almost dawn did she manage to fall asleep.

She woke up with a start when the doorbell of her unit started ringing.

Flipping over, she sat upright and draped a jacket over herself before going to answer the door.

As soon as she opened the door, she was greeted by the sight of Nan Chuan, who was all smiles. “Miss Su, good

morning,” he greeted.

As humans tended to be emotional, Su Ziyue couldn’t help but feel annoyed with Nan Chuan too because he was

Qin Muchen’s assistant.

Yet, it was common courtesy that one shouldn’t be rude to another who was smiling. Therefore, she tried hard to

suppress her displeasure and greeted him back coldly before she got ready to close the door.

Quickly and accurately, Nan Chuan managed to squeeze a carrier bag inside through the crack of the door.

Obviously, he had already foreseen that Su Ziyue would react in this way.

Su Ziyue looked up at him, rage in her eyes.

Smiling brightly, Nan Chuan said, “Mr. Qin was busy with work for the whole night yesterday, but he still went to the

shopping mall himself to get this for you at first light. Please do check it out…”

Check it out…

As a foreigner, it was really impressive of him to be able to speak the language so well.

Su Ziyue took a look at the logo printed on the bag—it was the logo of the clothing brand she had worn yesterday

which she had bought when she first returned to the country.

She only needed a brief moment of thinking to realize what was inside the carrier bag.

“Mr. Nan, thanks for making this trip over.” Suddenly, Su Ziyue put on a gentle smile. Her slender and fair fingers

rested on the shopping bag and pushed it slowly back to him. “Goodbye,” she said.

Nan Chuan, who had only ever seen Su Ziyue’s frigid face, had never come across such a gentle smile on her face.

Su Ziyue made use of the several seconds he was stumped to shove the bag back to him.

Then, she closed the door.

“Miss Su! Please open the door! Before I came, I pledged to Mr. Qin that I’d pass this to you by hook or by crook, or

I’ll end up very miserably when I go back…”

He knocked on the door and sounded woeful.

Why was he always on the receiving end of all the bad things that happened ever since Mr. Qin started a

relationship?

Su Ziyue, who was listening to Nan Chuan with her back leaning against the door, smiled unsympathetically.

Because she was in a foul mood, she decided that it was only fair that everyone should share a bit of her misery.

At last, Nan Chuan had no choice but to carry the untouched carrier bag back to his boss.

Qin Muchen was standing before the aquarium, holding a handful of fish food which he slowly sprinkled bit by bit

into the water.

He knew Nan Chuan was back as soon as he heard light footsteps coming from behind him.

Nan Chuan waited for Qin Muchen to speak first, but he did not seem to notice his presence as he continued

feeding the fishes without giving him a glance.

Finally, Nan Chuan could not bear the silence and spoke dejectedly, “Miss Su refused to take this.”

Qin Muchen kept his eyes on a surgeonfish in the aquarium, and he did not turn around to face Nan Chuan as he

asked in a rather icy tone, “Did she open the door?”

“Yes.” Nan Chuan had no idea why he asked that, but despite his curiosity, he decided to answer him honestly.

After pouring the remaining fish food in his hand back into the container, Qin Muchen turned around to face Nan

Chuan. “Did she speak to you?”

“She said two sentences.”

The expression on Qin Muchen’s face froze slightly before he walked away to wash his hands. “Okay.”

With that, he made his way back to his desk and started dealing with work.

Nan Chuan was left alone, puzzled.

Is that all? Where’s the shouting?

Why didn’t he lash out at me?

Is Mr. Qin a changed man?

Nan Chuan returned to Qin Muchen’s office from Su Ziyue’s place, feeling uneasy, but now, he walked out of the

office, feeling bewildered.

Although Qin Muchen had his eyes on the document which he was flipping through as he sat before his desk, his

mind was absent.

Since Su Siyue had opened the door and spoken with Nan Chuan, it was better than what he had expected, and he

reckoned that she was not very angry.

Su Ziyue did not feel sleepy anymore after being disturbed by Nan Chuan.

She was just getting ready to head out to have a meal after washing up when she received a call from An Xia, who

wanted to invite her out for a meal.

When she reached the agreed place, An Xia had already started looking at the menu.

An Xia pushed the menu to her as soon as she sat down.

The moment she caught sight of her face, she went wide-eyed with shock. “You look pale and you have dark circles

under your eyes, and you didn’t bother with makeup. Since when have you allowed yourself to look like such a

mess?”

“I didn’t see the need for it.” Su Ziyue looked weary because she did not sleep well last night.

After taking the menu, she chose two dishes without thinking much before leaning back against the chair, looking

weak and frail.

“What did you do last night?” An Xia eyed her suspiciously.

“I didn’t do anything.” Su Ziyue’s eyes turned dodgy under her stare.

Technically, she had basically done everything with Qin Muchen except the most important part.

At that thought, she couldn’t help but feel guilty.

Knowing that something was fishy judging from the guiltiness on her face, An Xia decided to bombard her with a

deluge of questions, to which Su Ziyue succumbed and spilled everything about last night to her.

After listening to her, An Xia raised her eyebrows. “After getting almost naked and even doing it before such a nice

view in a luxurious mansion, he actually went to pick up a call, and you actually ran away?”

Su Ziyue clarified, “That’s not the point…”

“I know. The point is, you guys didn’t get to do it.”

Su Ziyue was speechless. She clapped a hand to her forehead, having no idea how to explain to her what was really

on her mind.

Su Ziyue went to the office early Monday morning.

After joining the morning meeting, she returned to her office and started preparing some documents.

There were plenty of things she needed to learn about the follow-ups subsequent to the signing of an agreement.

At that juncture, An Xia pushed open the door to her office and walked inside before placing a huge stack of

documents on the table right in front of her. “These documents are going to be used today. You may want to have a

look at them first.”

“Okay, just leave them here.” Su Ziyue looked up and flashed her a smile.

An Xia seemed to have something more to say because she did not leave the office right away.

“Anything else?” Su Ziyue asked.

“LK Group called. They want us to arrange a meeting with them in the afternoon to talk about the collaboration.”

Su Ziyue’s eyes flickered as soon as she heard her. “Okay, I’ve got it,” she said nonchalantly.

“They gave us the number of their person in charge of the agreement and you probably should contact the person

personally. After all, this is our first time working together, and it’s better for us to take the initiative to call to show

our sincerity.”

With that, An Xia placed a note on which a phone number was written in front of her.

Stunned for a second, Su Ziyue took the note and gave it a fleeting glance before telling An Xia with a smile, “I’ve

got it. You should get back to work because things will get very busy after this.”

After looking at her and seeing that she was unruffled, An Xia had no choice but to walk out of her office.

As soon as An Xia left, the smile on Su Ziyue’s face vanished in the blink of an eye and was replaced by a look of

iciness while she examined the phone number.

Usually, it was not necessary for the president of the company to attend such a meeting personally, or he would not

need all those employees he had hired.

She had been trying her best to make sure she had nothing to do with Qin Muchen, but when Qin Muchen really

started treating her like a work partner, she actually did not feel relieved at all.

On the contrary, she felt indescribably depressed because of it.
