Chapter 124

"I'm fine." Gu Hanyan shook her head.

Qin Muchen nodded. "Thank you."

Gu Hanyan lifted her gaze to look at him before she softly said, "I know Ziyue is important to you. If she's hurt, you'll surely be distressed..."

A gauze was still wrapped around her head and her face was ghastly pale. However, she still spoke in such an earnest manner, which would definitely move other people's hearts if someone else were to hear her.

Su Ziyue found it hard to think that this Gu Hanyan was the same Gu Hanyan who had previously told her that she was not worthy of him at the Su Group.

There was a world of difference between those behaviors.

Subconsciously, she had leaned against Qin Muchen.

Although Qin Muchen was looking at Gu Hanyan, he still interlocked fingers with Su Ziyue when she neared him.

Feeling an inexplicable sense of warmth, Su Ziyue pursed her lips and lowered her head. She kept quiet, silently listening to his conversation with Gu Hanyan.

"Hanyan isn't like someone we know. She's a loving and affectionate person. Mr. Qin..." Meng, who had been quiet all along, suddenly spoke up. However, she was interrupted halfway.

Qin Muchen looked to the side to take a glimpse at her. His gaze was filled with unfamiliarity. “Who are you?"

"I..." Meng was stuttering, but she still forced out a smile. "I'm Meng, Hanyan's manager. We met when we were overseas."

Meng widened her eyes, as if she was hoping that he could remember her.

Qin Muchen briefly looked at her before turning back to Gu Hanyan. "Since you're fine, we'll take our leave first."

His gaze seemed cold and distant. The concern that was previously in his eyes only seemed like a hallucination.

Gu Hanyan subconsciously clenched her hands that were hidden under the blanket, balling them into fists.

After exhausting much effort, she finally got a hold of her expression. "Sure. It's getting late. You guys better head home and take a rest. Ziyue must have gotten a scare today."

Su Ziyue could not describe how she was feeling. Regardless, Gu Hanyan had saved her, so she should be thanking Gu Hanyan. However, after Qin Muchen had arrived, she felt like Gu Hanyan did not save her out of sincerity.

That feeling was as if Gu Hanyan had purposely rescued her so that she could use it as an excuse to get closer to Qin Muchen.

Su Ziyue was terrified by her own thoughts. Gu Hanyan was a movie star. Of course, Su Ziyue understood how important her body and face were. So, she felt that the possibility of this happening was small.

"I will handle the aftermath of the matter. Just focus on recuperating."

The moment Qin Muchen finished talking, he pulled Su Ziyue away, wanting to leave the scene. However, he suddenly stopped when he almost reached the door.

Su Ziyue was looking at him in a puzzled manner, but he was looking at Meng who was behind them.

Meng had a look of shock on her face. Before she could say anything, Qin Muchen softly said, "You're Meng, right? I've remembered you."

With that, he pulled Su Ziyue away and left the ward.

In the ward, Meng was still knitting her brows, trying to figure out what Qin Muchen had meant. Then, she suddenly heard Gu Hanyan snort. "Idiot."

Her voice was filled with disdain. She wasn't behaving like her usual self-generous and elegant-anymore.

"Who are you scolding?" Meng turned around to glare at her. "Gu Hanyan!"

"I'm scolding you of course. Is there anyone else here?" Gu Hanyan coldly chuckled. "Qin Muchen now treasures Su Ziyue. He is a person who is extremely protective of his loved ones. Since you've been my manager for so many years, let me give you some advice. Be careful."

With that, Gu Hanyan started laughing sarcastically.

How would she not notice the concern Qin Muchen had for Su Ziyue? But how could she willingly accept the situation? She was the one who knew Qing Muchen first after all.

She could endure it if Qin Muchen hadn't taken notice of her love for him, but she could not stand to watch Qin Muchen, who had never fallen for anyone else, suddenly catch feelings for another woman.

Her word successfully struck terror in Meng's heart.

Seeing her behavior, it was as if Gu Hanyan had let out her discontent. She lifted her head and leaned backward, shutting her eyes and feeling relaxed.

Pursing her lips, Meng's expression suddenly turned sullen. "Then what good intentions do you have? So what if you've become an international movie star? Qin Muchen still won't fall for you. Don't think I don't know that the reason you purposely shoved Su Ziyue away is because you wanted to use the opportunity to seek some attention from him."

Upon hearing this, Gu Hanyan abruptly opened her eyes. "Shut up!"

"I'm right, aren't I?" A mocking smile emerged on Meng's face. "In the end, he didn't even bother to care about you."

Gu Hanyan turned her head to look at her; her gaze was frosty. "Are you any better than me? You're just that man's dog that he had put beside me so that he can keep an eye on me."

"You..."

Seeing that Meng was so furious that she was at a loss for words, Gu Hanyan felt slightly better.

Then, as she recalled Qin Muchen's previous reaction, she furrowed her brows. Although he still seemed cold, at least he looked her in the eye, right?

She was certain that nobody understood Qin Muchen better than she did. Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen had only known each other not long ago. If Qin Muchen paid more attention to Gu Hanyan, he would see the good in her.

Who was Su Ziyue compared to her?

It was still not that late when they arrived home.

Su Ziyue did not get much to eat when she was at the hospital. Hence, she was hungry the moment she got home.

The second she entered the house, she ran straight toward the dining hall.

While she was moving, she asked Qin Muchen, "You said you cooked my favorite dishes. Where did you put it?"

Following her from behind, Qin Muchen patted her on her head when he saw her greedy look. "Go and have a seat. I will heat up the food for you."

"Sure." Upon hearing this, Su Ziyue demurely sat down in front of the dining table and waited for Qin Muchen to heat up the food for her.

Soon, Qin Muchen had heated up the food, so he brought them to the dining table.

Su Ziyue couldn't wait to start eating, but she suddenly remembered that when he called her just now, he said that he had finished cooking. Not long after that, he was already at the hospital. So, he probably hadn't had his dinner yet as well.

She then put down her chopsticks at the thought of this.

After Qin Muchen had finished washing his hands, he noticed that she was still sitting there without touching the food. So, he asked her, "Why aren't you eating?'

"I'm waiting for you." Su Ziyue was biting on the chopsticks while looking at him.

Qin Muchen was slightly stunned when he heard this. Then, he sat down across her. "You can eat now."

After they had finished dinner, the both of them then went to their bedroom.

Su Ziyue immediately lay on the bed after taking her shower.

She had been so exhausted for the past few days and with the incident on this day, the APP collaboration event would not be completed for the time being. She was too tired to think about the follow-up matters as well.

Hence, she lay on the bed and immediately shut her eyes.

A few moments later, she felt a cold sensation at the swollen spot on her face which was hit by Meng earlier.

She opened her eyes and saw Qin Muchen sitting beside her.

Qin Muchen moved the ice bag and pressed down on the blanket. In a soft voice, he asked, "Does it still hurt?"

"No." Su Ziyue shook her head. She was already feeling a little drowsy. "Sleepy."

"Go ahead and sleep. Don't bother about me." Qin Muchen helped her comb the hair that was in front of her forehead. There were no emotions on his face, but his voice was soothing.

Su Ziyue reached out one of her hands to grab Qin Muchen's other empty hand before contentedly shutting her eyes.

Seeing that she had shut her eyes, Qin Muchen's expression turned sullen instead.
