Chapter 157 Su Ziyue, You Liar
Su Ziyue raised her head to look at him; she became attracted to his eyes which were as deep and dark as a bottomless pit. She could no longer look away again.
Noticing how she didn’t say a word after a long time, Qin Muchen’s palm—which was placed against the wall—clenched into a fist. He narrowed his eyes slightly to hide the feelings within them so that Su Ziyue wouldn’t notice his peculiarity. “Say something.”
Su Ziyue pursed her lips. She unknowingly raised her chin slightly higher in a way that looked like she was forcing herself to be tough. “Of course I care about you.”
Qin Muchen’s heart skipped a beat as a faint, almost unnoticeable smile appeared on his face. “Really?”
Su Ziyue didn’t know what was on Qin Muchen’s mind. She turned and looked at his hand which he placed against the wall. Then, she held out her hands to hold his and pulled it hesitantly but without much difficulty.
Feeling happy, a smile crossed Su Ziyue’s face. “Of course, that’s because you’re my husband. Who else would I care about if I don’t care about you?”
As she finished speaking, Su Ziyue noticed a playful look flickering in Qin Muchen’s eyes. She turned her head and looked away in embarrassment; as she expected, she was no match for Qin Muchen when it came to being shameless.
She let go of his hand and raised her voice. “I’ve finished what I have to say, so I’m leaving.”
Su Ziyue panicked and sounded slightly disorientated. She noticed Qin Muchen was obviously moved by her words, but he didn’t say anything…
“Oh? Didn’t you just say that you cared about me? Why are you leaving me now? Su Ziyue, you’re a liar.”
Qin Muchen withdrew his hand from hers before ironing out the wrinkles on his suit, which was made of high quality fabric, reverting it back to its original and smooth appearance after several light strokes.
He took a step backward, and there was a cold and distant expression on his face as a hostile and aloof aura emitted from him; he appeared noble yet cold.
Su Ziyue looked at him in surprise and confusion. Actually, I was just…
Qin Muchen raised his wrist while lowering his eyes to look at the time. He then raised his head to look at Su Ziyue again. “Don’t do such meaningless things like this next time. I’m very busy.”
“I…” Su Ziyue shook her head. She had no idea how things turned out like this.
She was certain that Qin Muchen was touched by her words just now—in fact, she was telling the truth. She really cared about him very much and wasn’t a heartless person when she clearly knew Qin Muchen was nice to her…
“I’m leaving first—you go home yourself.” As soon as Qin Muchen finished speaking, he left straight away without any consideration for Su Ziyue.
Su Ziyue stood there motionlessly, seemingly as though her soul had left her body. She stared blankly after him as he walked away, unable to say anything.
When Qin Muchen reached the turn of the corner, he stopped in his tracks for a moment; his thin lips pursed into a straight line. Nonetheless, he decided not to let his emotions get the better of him and moved forward. Just moments ago, his heart had almost melted.
It was difficult to please an adult—especially Qin Muchen—who possessed over hundreds of millions of fortune and had been through all kinds of situations in his life.
However, the sudden happiness which followed the moment when Su Ziyue said she cared about him just now had disrupted his composure so much that he found it difficult to be accustomed to this feeling.
Nonetheless, he didn’t want to forgive her so fast. Even though he knew that he was acting irrationally, he wanted to know to what extent Su Ziyue could tolerate him; he wanted to know how much Su Ziyue cared about him.
At that moment, his cell phone rang; Bai Jingshu was calling him.
“Are you here yet? People from the other side are here.” Bai Jingshu sounded a little anxious.
Qin Muchen frowned. “I’m here. I’m heading there right now.”
…
Su Ziyue didn’t know how she managed to leave the hallway.
Instead of leaving the club, she booked a suite and ordered a dozen of liquor.
Although she didn’t like to drink, she could hold her liquor pretty well. During her graduation party, everyone in her class was so awfully drunk that they had to sleep overnight in a suite—only Su Ziyue managed to go back home safely.
Su Ziyue downed the whole bottle of wine without even requesting for a wine glass.
“Qin Muchen, you’re the real liar!”
“Shameless…”
“Jerk…”
“…”
Su Ziyue kept cursing Qin Muchen as she downed bottles of liquor.
By the time she finished drinking all the bottles of liquor, she was completely drunk.
She staggered unsteadily on her way out to the door. At that moment, she noticed that her hand was empty. Where was her bag?
“Where’s my bag?” She murmured to herself as she turned around and found her bag. After that, she pushed the door open and went out.
“Alright, I’ll go back myself… my car… key…”
Su Ziyue still remembered Qin Muchen telling her to go back herself. Hence, she lowered her head and rummaged in her bag for her car key. Why can’t I find my key? Is it missing? Is this even my bag?
As she walked, Su Ziyue looked for the key to her car in her bag at the same time, not noticing that there was a person walking toward her in front. Soon, she lost her focus and accidentally bumped into the person.
The man whom she had bumped into growled viciously and said, “Watch where you’re going! You b*tch—” The man suddenly stopped halfway without finishing his sentence.
Su Ziyue raised her head and looked at the man; since she was too drunk to think properly, she only saw the tattoo on the man’s neck.
She disliked the man intuitively. Su Ziyue went around him and continued to move forward while holding onto the wall.
Since she was 80% drunk now, her senses had become less sensitive. Nonetheless, the remaining 20% of alertness within her still made her aware of the danger around her.
“You want to leave after bumping into me?”
She was dragged back toward the man before she could move further away.
Su Ziyue shook off his hand impatiently. “Who are you? Let go of me!”
After seeing the beautiful Su Ziyue who was covered in an alcoholic smell, obscene thoughts crossed the man’s mind. He, of course, would not let her go so easily after noticing she was quite drunk.
At that moment, a waiter noticed the commotion here by coincidence. He hurried over and greeted the man. “Mr. Hong.”
“What Mr. Hong? Can’t you see he won’t let go of me? You, make him… go away…” As Su Ziyue grasped onto the waiter, she dropped her bag on the floor.
The man named Mr. Hong suddenly dragged Su Ziyue toward him. He then said loudly, “Everything’s fine. She asked me to buy her a new car yesterday, but the car I ordered hasn’t arrived yet; that’s why she’s drinking and throwing a tantrum at me.”
As he finished, Mr. Hong turned and caressed Su Ziyue’s face. “Quit fooling around, babe. I’ll make you feel really comfortable tonight…”
Su Ziyue smacked his hand away with a loud smack. “Who are you? Move! Why are you grabbing me? I want to find my husband…”
Getting his hand smacked away by Su Ziyue, a malevolent look flickered in Mr. Hong’s eyes. However, looking at her red pretty delicate face, the malignancy in his eyes turned into lust. “I am your husband…”
Su Ziyue narrowed her eyes and stared at him for a few seconds half-consciously. She frowned and commented, “You’re too ugly.”
“B*tch, don’t get cocky just because I’m being nice to you!” Mr. Hong finally lost his temper after being provoked by Su Ziyue. He lost his patience to put up with her drunk demeanor and dragged her along forcibly toward the elevator immediately.
There were guest rooms available on the first floor upstairs. He had come to this club so many times, but it was his first time meeting such a beautiful girl like Su Ziyue.
He felt sorry for himself if he didn’t take her to bed tonight.
Su Ziyue couldn’t win against him in terms of strength; Mr. Hong was tall and strong, and she was practically being dragged along by him.
Aware of the danger she would be in, Su Ziyue started to kick and punch Mr. Hong since she didn’t have the strength to wrestle with him.
When one was drunk, they would become unusually strong when hitting someone.
Mr. Hong snorted coldly and punched Su Ziyue in the stomach. “Be quiet.”
