Chapter 115
Gu Hanyan was embarrassed by Su Ziyue’s attitude. She turned to look at Qin Muchen and asked, “Muchen, does
she not welcome me?”
Qin Muchen raised his head and glanced at her, but he said to Bai Jingshu, “Did I agree to let you come to my
house?”
There was an obvious tone of reproachfulness in his voice.
Having known Gu Hanyan for so many years—together with the fact that she was a girl—he didn’t want to
embarrass or humiliate her.
However, he could just say whatever he wanted to Bai Jingshu.
He brought Su Ziyue back forcibly to explain to her properly at home.
Yet, when he arrived at the door of his house, Bai Jingshu gave him such a ‘big surprise’ like a best friend always
did.
Bai Jingshu was speechless.
Bai Jingshu had always been soft hearted toward girls. Gu Hanyan was beautiful, and they were friends, so he
couldn’t bear to let her down after she pleaded with him coquettishly; he had no choice but to bring her over.
In reality, he was filled with regret in his heart. Judging by Su Ziyue’s reaction just now, he realized that they were in
a fight.
He seemed to have done a stupid thing.
“Don’t blame Jingshu; I insisted on coming over.” Gu Hanyan clutched the bag in her hand. Although she looked a
little anxious, she defended Bai Jingshu nonetheless.
Qin Muchen turned his head and glanced at her with a slightly cold look on his face, causing Gu Hanyan to feel a
little guilty.
As he thought of Su Ziyue’s reaction just now, Qin Muchen smiled inwardly.
When she was about to lower her head, Qin Muchen retracted his gaze. “Since you’re already here, you should just
come in.”
With that, he walked inside the house.
After he went in, he realized that Su Ziyue was not in the living room.

He went upstairs to look for her and heard the sound of water running from the bathroom after he went into the
bedroom.
With his hand on the doorknob, a hint of confusion flashed across Qin Muchen’s face. He was a little confused about
what Su Ziyue was thinking now.
He paused before walking into the room and knocked on the bathroom door. He then asked, “What do you want to
eat for dinner?”
The sound of water inside stopped for a moment, and Su Ziyue’s voice was heard saying amidst the water vapor,
“Whatever I want.”
Then, the sound of running water was heard again.
Qin Muchen paused for a while, but he suddenly smiled.
He turned to leave the room in a good mood.
…
Bai Jingshu and Gu Hanyan were already in the living room downstairs.
The latter had even poured Gu Hanyan a glass of water and was talking to her, but it was obvious that Gu Hanyan
was absent-minded as she glanced at the stairs behind her from time to time.
When she saw Qin Muchen coming down, she stood up and said, “Muchen.”
Then, she looked behind him again and found that he was alone, so she asked curiously, “Where is the girl just
now?”
“She’s my wife.” Qin Muchen glanced at her indifferently.
At this, Gu Hanyan was taken aback. However, she soon smiled calmly without saying anything.
Bai Jingshu felt that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing. When he was about to say something else, Qin
Muchen said, “I’m going to eat. You should keep Miss Gu company.”
His tone was unarguable.
Almost immediately, Gu Hanyan lost her cool.
He addressed her as Miss Gu.
For so many years, he still addressed her as Miss Gu—just like a stranger.
Even Bai Jingshu would call her “Hanyan”. It seemed like she would never win this man’s heart even though she
could make so many people like her and her movies.
Although Bai Jingshu felt that Qin Muchen was being too indifferent, he also knew that Qin Muchen was a little angry
and did not dare say anything more.
Qin Muchen went into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. In addition to the groceries he had bought before,
there were also a few other foods and a piece of fish.
Su Ziyue had actually bought an extra fish yesterday because she was afraid that she might botch her first attempt
at cooking the fish, but unexpectedly, she succeeded on her first try.
Why did she suddenly get groceries?
This question flashed across his mind, but Qin Muchen didn’t dwell on it too much and started cooking.
…
Su Ziyue took a shower and calmed down a lot.
I am Qin Muchen’s wife, okay?
So what if Gu Hanyan is an international movie star? What does she want by coming to our house? It’s all because
she’s into Qin Muchen.
I haven’t even settled the account with Qin Muchen last night!
Yet, Bai Jingshu brought her here today!
If Qin Muchen really cheated on me last night, I’ll just get a divorce. Then, I can get a large amount of alimony—just
like what An Xia said.
However, she was still willing to believe Qin Muchen subconsciously; she believed that Qin Muchen was different
from other men.
Even Bai Jingshu knows Gu Hanyan, and he even brought her to our house. Presumably, they have known each
other for some time.
Since they have known each other for some time, they would have been together long ago if they wanted to. Why
do they have to wait until now to hook up? It’s not like Qin Muchen is a fool.
While thinking about this, she dried her hair, changed her clothes and went downstairs.
There was only Bai Jingshu in the living room.

As soon as Bai Jingshu looked up, he saw Su Ziyue and his eyes narrowed into slits with a flattering smile. “Mrs.
Qin!”
Su Ziyue sneered. “I’m flattered.”
He knew that this girl must be angry.
“There’s nothing between Hanyan and Muchen; we’re all friends. She has been abroad for the past few years and
just recently returned to China, so…”
As he finally caught sight of Su Ziyue’s deepening smile, Bai Jingshu couldn’t continue with his words any longer. It
was impossible that he didn’t know how Gu Hanyan felt toward Qin Muchen. After all, he was a womanizer.
“Don’t you want to continue?” Su Ziyue asked him.
Looking at Su Ziyue’s composed expression, Bai Jingshu somehow felt that she and Qin Muchen were getting more
and more alike, still feeling rather timorous. “Umm… I have nothing much to say.”
Not wanting to listen to him anymore, Su Ziyue turned around and walked toward the kitchen.
“Are you cooking steak?”
Before she even entered the kitchen, she heard Gu Hanyan’s gentle voice.
People with good looks generally had nice voices, and Gu Hanyan was one of them.
Su Ziyue paused before walking in.
She would not even let her dog be touched by others without her permission, let alone her man.
Su Ziyue walked in and leaned against the door. She then said, “Of course he’s making stir-fried beef. Just like
before, please put lots of chili in it!”
Hearing her voice, the two people inside turned to look at her.
Qin Muchen was cutting something, whereas Gu Hanyan stood beside him wearing an apron with her sleeves rolled
up and her long hair tied up, looking neat and homely.
If it hadn’t been for one of them to be her husband, she would find this sight very heartwarming and pleasing to the
eye.
Seeing her sudden appearance, Gu Hanyan said hesitantly, “But, Muchen doesn’t eat spicy food.”
“But I like spicy food.” Su Ziyue tilted her head and smiled innocently.
The expression on Gu Hanyan’s face changed slightly, but she smiled again instantly. “He…”
“He likes what I like, and besides, he is happy to spoil me.” Su Ziyue watched with satisfaction as Gu Hanyan’s face
changed drastically.
