Marry Me Quick

Chapter 141

Qin Muchen raised his eyebrow when he noticed her behavior. He took the thermometer from her and put it under

his armpit.

After a while, he took it out and passed it to Su Ziyue.

Su Ziyue pursed her lips before she passed the thermometer to Lu Shichu.

Lu Shichu took it and had a look. He frowned slightly. “39.6 degree Celsius, high fever.”

However, Qin Muchen seemed very conscious and wide awake.

“Give me my medicine please.” Qin Muchen’s voice was a little dry and hoarse.

Su Ziyue passed a glass of water by the side to him immediately.

Lu Shichu took a glance at Qin Muchen before giving him his medicine. Then, he reminded Su Ziyue about some

precautions that needed to be taken before he left the house, because he still needed to go back to work at the

hospital.

After sending Lu Shichu out the door, Su Ziyue fed Qin Muchen his medicine.

Qin Muchen swallowed the pills without even blinking. He lay down on the bed after taking his medicine. Su Ziyue

held a glass of water in her hand, thinking of getting him to drink more water.

“Qin Muchen?” Su Ziyue patted him on his face. “Have some more water.”

Qin Muchen merely uttered a single word without even opening his eyes. “No.”

His reaction made Su Ziyue suddenly realize that he had been forcing himself to remain in a seated position since

just now. She found his behavior rather annoying and funny at the same time. She thought it was ridiculous for Qin

Muchen to act tough for no particular reason.

Although she didn’t know the exact reason for Qin Muchen’s antagonism toward Lu Shichu, she decided not to call

Lu Shichu to come over next time he fell sick again. Another reason for her decision was that Lu Shichu was very

busy with all the matters he had to attend to as the Deputy Director of the hospital.

Qin Muchen started sweating after sleeping for a while. Su Ziyue took a towel and wiped the sweat off his face. She

then took another wet towel and placed it on his forehead.

Qin Muchen just had his medicine. He should feel much better after a rest. I suppose he will want to have

something to eat after he wakes up?

After pondering for a while, Su Ziyue poured him a huge glass of water and placed it on the table beside his bed.

Then, she carried her tablet computer and went downstairs.

Usually, he was the one who took care of her and cooked for her. On this day, it was her turn to take care of him

instead. Although she didn’t know how to take care of people, she could learn to do it after several practices, like

the way she did when she prepared the steamed fish with scallion oil last time.

Su Ziyue frowned when she thought of that dish. After that, she went into the kitchen.

A patient should have a light and mild meal. Lu Shichu suggested that she could make some chicken soup before he

left.

Su Ziyue hurried into the kitchen after calling the office to apply for a leave.

Three hours had passed after she finished preparing the chicken soup.

She prepared the soup according to the simplest recipe she could find. When it was done, she thought the soup

tasted alright.

She didn’t put any salt in the soup, so it was very bland after tasting it. However, Lu Shichu reminded her that Qin

Muchen should have a light meal now. So, she decided not to put salt in the soup and let it be bland instead.

She came out of the kitchen with a large bowl of chicken soup and placed it on the dining table. She was about to

take it upstairs after it had cooled down for a bit when she heard someone knock on the door.

Su Ziyue was a little surprised. She wondered who it would be since it was almost lunch time.

She walked over to open the door and saw the beaming Nan Chuan.

“Miss Su.” Nan Chuan nodded at her politely.

Su Ziyue knew he would come. He must have come here to look for Qin Muchen to discuss work.

“Qin Muchen is down with a fever. If you have any work-related matters, talk to him after he gets better.” As soon

Su Ziyue finished, she asked, “He’s sleeping in the bedroom. Do you want to have a look at him?”

“A fever?” Nan Chuan walked inside while murmuring to himself at the same time.

Su Ziyue closed the door behind him, but someone had come again, so she had to open the door once more.

However, Su Ziyue would never ask the person who came this time if she would like to take a look at Qin Muchen.

“Anything you want, Miss Gu?” Su Ziyue asked while blocking her entrance at the doorway.

This was her house and she had the final say in everything. She just didn’t want to let Gu Hanyan come into the

house.

Gu Hanyan studied her carefully from head to toe, a disdainful look flashing through her eyes. “Of course I’m here

for Muchen.”

Su Ziyue knew what the look in Gu Hanyan’s eyes meant after she lowered her head and took a look at herself.

This morning after she woke up, before she even had the time to have breakfast, she simply washed her face and

straight away called Lu Shichu to come over to check on Qin Muchen. She was still wearing plain casual home wear

without much designs on it. She just had a pair of slippers on and didn’t even put any makeup on her face. Since

she had been busy preparing soup and cooking in the kitchen, her forehead was drenched in sweat, which

dampened her bangs and made her appear disheveled.

“Oh, he’s sick. So, he’s unfit to see any guest now.” As she said that, Su Ziyue made a move to close the door.

However, Gu Hanyan knew Su Ziyue would do something like that, so she stepped into the house directly and

stopped her from closing the door. “Of course I need to come and visit him since he’s sick. Even though you’re his

wife, don’t you think you’re being too strict and care a tad bit too much? As his friend, I don’t even have the right to

visit him?”

Su Ziyue gave her a look. Without waiting for her to say anything, Gu Hanyan spoke again. She inched closer

toward Su Ziyue and said in a low voice which only the both of them could hear, “Or, you’re not afraid of me seeing

him, but you’re afraid that I’ll snatch him back?”

Snatch… him back? Haha! What a shameless woman!

“Mrs. Qin, Miss Gu…” Hearing Nan Chuan’s voice from behind, Su Ziyue suddenly remembered that they had

another guest in the house.

Nan Chuan had been working with Qin Muchen for some time now, so he knew Gu Hanyan too.

Su Ziyue was very pleased with him addressing her as Mrs. Qin. She turned around and looked at Nan Chuan. “You

go inside first. I would like to say a few words with Miss Gu.”

“Mr. Nan.” Gu Hanyan greeted Nan Chuan, to which he replied with a faint nod before turning around and walking

inside.

“Miss Gu, I’m afraid what you said earlier was incorrect. Has Qin Muchen admitted that you are his girlfriend

before? Or did both of you get married before?” Su Ziyue raised her eyes and looked at Gu Hanyan. A gleam of

natural confidence flickered in her bright and energetic round eyes. “If something is yours, it won’t escape your

reaches; if it isn’t meant to be yours, you’ll lose it someday even after you get it. But of course, all of us know Qin

Muchen really well. If that’s something he really wants, he won’t wait until over ten years to get it, right?”

Gu Hanyan, of course, knew Su Ziyue was mocking her by saying that. Her expression changed slightly before it

quickly returned to normal again. She smiled. “Oh, is that so?”

“Aren’t you here to see him? Come on in.” Su Ziyue took a step backward, turned around and walked toward the

dining room. She sounded as if she was showing mercy to Gu Hanyan and was giving her the opportunity to see Qin

Muchen.

Gu Hanyan’s hands clenched tightly around her bag. One day, I will snatch Qin Muchen from Su Ziyue. Qin Muchen

is mine; he used to be, and will always be mine.

Su Ziyue went into the dining room to take the chicken soup and went upstairs without paying further attention to

Gu Hanyan. Nan Chuan followed behind Su Ziyue.

As she reached the entrance, Su Ziyue turned and took a glance at the doorway. As expected, she saw Gu Hanyan

following her upstairs as well. It must be difficult for her to be so shameless!

Su Ziyue pushed the door open and entered the bedroom. Coincidently, she saw Qin Muchen, who just got out of

the bathroom.

He just had a pair of long pants and his upper body was bared. He looked normal when he saw Su Ziyue coming in,

but a slight change flashed through his eyes when he saw Nan Chuan and Gu Hanyan standing behind her.

Su Ziyue turned around immediately and looked behind. She noticed that Gu Hanyan was staring attentively at Qin

Muchen without blinking her eyes.

Bang! Su Ziyue slammed the door shut with a loud bang after glaring at Gu Hanyan.
