Marry Me Quick

Chapter 119

Su Ziyue stopped in her tracks after hearing that.

The two people were carried away by their own conversation and did not notice the strange look that Su Ziyue had

put on at all. They still continued with their conversation.

“Gu Hanyan has returned to the country?”

“You didn’t know? There’s already news about it yesterday. Moreover, it’s a scandal. However, everything vanished

by the afternoon. What a shame. I wanted to gossip more about it but the news was taken down before the man

was revealed.”

“Is she really going to endorse the application? Does that mean that we’ll be able to see her in real life by then?”

“I have no idea as well. I’ve only heard rumors saying that she was doing great overseas. She didn't have to come

back here to grow her career.”

“Makes sense…”

After the two people walked past her, Su Ziyue finally came back to her senses, putting on a sullen look.

Gu Hanyan wants to grow her career back in the country?

She did not believe that Gu Hanyan would want to return to the country since she had been doing a great job

overseas.

Although she was clear in mind that Gu Hanyan might have wanted to return the country for the sake of Qin

Muchen, she could not ask her to leave too, so she would just have to let her be.

Qin Muchen drove his car back to LK Group, still putting on a gloomy look.

Even his secretary dared not too audibly heavily when she went in to report his itinerary for the day.

Fortunately, Qin Muchen only replied with a sentence, “Please bring me a cup of coffee.”

The secretary then left after receiving his order. She immediately ran into Bai Jingshu right after she went out, so

she felt truly happy in her heart, as if she had met her savior. “Mr. Bai, you’re here,” greeted the secretary joyously.

“What’s the matter? Am I not welcomed?” Bai Jingshu had tucked both his hands in his pockets. His tall figure made

him look like a graceful and noble young master. Nonetheless, the smile on his face was rather lackadaisical.

The secretary waved her hand. “Of course not. You’re definitely welcomed. However, the President isn’t in a good

mood today. Go in and take a look at him.”

With that, she turned away to make a cup of coffee for Qin Muchen. Nonetheless, she did not forget to turn around

and added, “You must go in and take a look.”

As a secretary, she was mentally burdened for having to serve a boss with an unpredictable temper like him. Even

though his temper was not that bad, the look of his when he stayed quiet was terrifying enough. She would feel

suppressed and suffocated whenever she was around him when he acted like this.

She was fortunate to have Mr. Bai around. Whenever Mr. Bai showed up, even though the President would not

immediately be in a great mood, it would always be slightly better.

Bai Jingshu had already pushed the door open with a puzzled look while the secretary was still imagining things.

“Good morning, President Qin.” Bai Jingshu slowly walked toward Qin Muchen’s office desk.

Qin Muchen glanced at him coldly before he looked the other way. “You still have the audacity to come looking for

me?” asked Qin Muchen in a frosty tone.

There was a moment of silence. Bai Jingshu gulped as he pulled over a chair and sat down in front of him. “Don’t

act like this. Hanyan is still a friend of yours no matter what, right?” said Bai Jingshu in an obvious attempt to please

him.

“I’ve treated her to a meal and found a hotel room for her on the day she came. Is that not enough?” To him, he

had treated her well enough as a friend by doing all these.

Bai Jingshu rubbed his nose. To Qin Muchen, it was indeed his way of showing that he treated Gu Hanyan as a friend

by doing all that.

“No more next time,” Qin Muchen warned him. He was a person who was overly possessive. His house was a place

for himself and Su Ziyue. He did not like anyone else being at his house.

“Hanyan is a girl after all,” said Bai Jingshu.

Qin Muchen did not show any mercy when he refuted, “You can bring her home if you like her so much. After all,

you’ve never rejected any woman before.”

“Hey!”

Qin Muchen couldn't be bothered by how furious Bai Jingshu was. “By the way, about that matter of Su Yizi, you

don’t have to investigate any further.”

“What?” If Bai Jingshu could still say that he roughly understood Gu Hanyan’s matter, then he definitely could not

understand this decision of his.

“You don’t understand me?” Qin Muchen gave him a cold look before he started chasing him away. “I meant it

literally. Stop investigating.”

“You’re stopping this investigation just for the sake of Su Ziyue?” Bai Jingshu’s face had turned a tad serious. “Don’t

forget about your purpose of returning to the country!”

Qin Muchen did not respond to whatever Bai Jingshu said.

Bai Jingshu felt Qin Muchen was being ridiculous, so he left after seeing his behavior.

Su Ziyue was having a complicated feeling when she walked out from the conference room.

She could only hope that Gu Hanyan endorsing the application was not real. Otherwise, she felt something bad was

going to happen.

Gu Hanyan was not someone easy to deal with and she was not a coward either.

Moreover, Su Ziyue was handling the collaboration.

Su Group was a large company in Yunzhou City and was doing well in all aspects. If Su Group took the initiative to

seek collaboration with the company that had developed the application, it was almost a guarantee that they would

get it.

That afternoon, Su Ziyue headed to the company that had developed the application to further discuss the

collaboration.

The company that had developed the application was not a large company. However, the application was well-

known for that time. Many other companies were looking forward to collaborating with them.

The discussion on the collaboration went really well.

After Su Ziyue had gotten back to Su Group after signing the contract, she could sense a strange atmosphere in the

company the moment she went in.

She could sense excitement in the atmosphere. What is all this excitement about? she thought.

Su Ziyue looked for An Xia. “What’s happening?”

“Gu Hanyan is here.” An Xia had a hint of excitement in her eyes as well.

Su Ziyue put on a frown after listening to her. It seemed to her the endorsement of the application would definitely

be taken over by Gu Hanyan.

Su Ziyue’s prediction was right. Su Youcheng’s secretary called her through the office phone after a short while,

saying that Su Youcheng had asked her to go over.

Su Ziyue hung up the call as she put up a sardonic grin on her face. It seemed like Su Youcheng held Gu Hanyan

with high regards.

If Gu Hanyan was only an ordinary movie star, it would not have meant much.

Nevertheless, it was rumored on the Internet that she had an extraordinary background. Su Youcheng must have

caught on to this, which was why he met up with her personally.

Su Ziyue tidied up her clothes before heading toward Su Youcheng’s office.

“Grandpa.”

Su Ziyue walked inside and greeted Su Youcheng first. She swept a gaze at Gu Hanyan, but she did not utter a word.

She did know what the two of them had been talking about, but Su Youcheng then stood up with a wide smile on his

face. “Ziyue, come here quickly. Let me introduce you to Miss Gu Hanyan!”

“Nice to meet you, Miss Gu. I’m the project director of the project department, Su Ziyue.” Su Ziyue reached out her

hand toward Gu Hanyan.

However, Gu Hanyan had only reached her hand out with a smile after staring at her for a while. “It’s my pleasure

to finally meet you. Miss Ziyue, you sure look gorgeous. I’ve come back for two days and have heard rumors about

you. I suppose those are all misinformation.”

Gu Hanyan’s tone of speech and her actions seemed very decent, but her movements suggested condescension.

That form of condescension was one that needed no words, for it showed through the way she held herself.

Nevertheless, her calm look still managed to make everyone feel that she was a decent person.

Although Su Ziyue was feeling uncomfortable, she did not show it through her facial expressions. “Miss Gu, you sure

are exceptional. Rumors seem to always lose credibility after being spread around. Only someone as intelligent as

you, Miss Gu, would know that those rumors cannot be trusted.”

The both of them let go of each other’s hand after they were done talking. An invisible war of nerves was going on

between them.

After Su Youcheng had said a few pleasantries, Gu Hanyan made up an excuse to leave the office. She even wanted

Su Ziyue to see her off.

Of course, Su Ziyue would not refuse.

The both of them left the office as Su Ziyue counted down in her mind. Three, two, one…

When she had reached ‘one’, she then heard Gu Hanyan’s voice. “You don’t deserve him.”
