Marry Me Quick

Chapter 147

Hearing Gong Zeyang mentioning 'that night', Su Ziyue's expression changed slightly as she shouted, "Shut up!"

Although she and Qin Muchen had met each other and for some reason had sex that night, it was still Su Yige who had caused everything to happen. Whenever anyone brought it up, she still felt anguished about it.

Gong Zeyang was stunned for a moment as he looked at Su Ziyue's cold expression. A kind of gentleness flashed across his eyes as he said with an understanding tone, "The past is in the past. You don't need to avoid it on purpose as I won't mind your past."

Su Ziyue narrowed her eyes as she asked, "What business is it of mine whether you mind about it or not?" Then, she thought to herself that she didn't need to waste time explaining to Gong Zeyang after all, so she demanded again expressionlessly, "Give me back my phone."

However, Gong Zeyang appeared not to have heard her as he continued, "It's just that you shouldn't have married him so recklessly."

Su Ziyue didn't know how he could be so self-righteous and kept wanting to control what she did in her life. Hearing his tone, it felt as if he believed that if she used to like him in the past, she wouldn't have fallen for any other men now. She mocked, "Oh? If I don't marry him, am I supposed to marry you instead?"

Gong Zeyang's heart pounded as he called out to her, "Ziyue..."

Seeing his moved expression, Su Ziyue only felt extreme disgust at it. However, she still smiled and said mockingly, "Are you willing to break off the engagement with Su Yige?" She knew that he was unwilling to do that, therefore she dared to ask him out loud.

Marriage was never a simple matter between two people, but between two families instead, especially between aristocratic families at that. If Gong Zeyang insisted on breaking off the engagement, not only would the Gong Family and Su Family not agree to it, but Su Yige herself wouldn't either.

When Gong Zeyang heard her words, his eyes lit up. As Su Ziyue thought he would immediately reject the idea, Gong Zeyang replied, "I knew it. I have always been in your heart."

Upon hearing this, Su Ziyue suddenly thought of Gu Hanyan. Who knew that Gong Zeyang could be so egotistical as well? She didn't know what Gong Zeyang was thinking about, but all she knew was that she had to get home quickly. Usually, Qin Muchen would call her three times if she didn't pick up the first time. However, he had only called once just now and had stopped calling, which made her feel worried.

She took a deep breath and decided not to keep arguing pointlessly with Gong Zeyang. "Think whatever you want. Give me back my phone; I want to go home now."

Gong Zeyang's expression was stubborn as he replied, "Let's have dinner together."

Su Ziyue pressed her lips together in displeasure as she said, "Fine, just give me back my phone first." I'll get my phone back and go straight home when we get downstairs. I don't believe that he will drag me to dinner by force!

"Don't lie to me..."

Outside the door, Qin Muchen was standing there with an expression that was extremely dark and fearsome. He couldn't hear whatever they continued to talk about later anymore. He had wanted to open the door and take Su Ziyue away with confidence and without any apprehension in front of Gong Zeyang just like before. However, this time he found that he couldn't do it. His legs felt as heavy as tonnes of steel. His dignity wouldn't allow him to do such a thing.

Since young, whatever that he had gotten through his schemes, he had always succeeded. He had never lost anything, except for his mother who had died suddenly. But after this day, there would probably be another thing for him to lose-a woman's heart. To him, success wasn't difficult to achieve. He had also thought that it wouldn't be difficult to win a woman's heart, as he felt that he had done well enough. But sometimes, whether a woman's heart only contained oneself wasn't up to whether one did well enough or not.

He curled his hands into fists and unclenched them repeatedly, then he simply left without any expression on his face. As he walked out of the Su Group office building, his tall silhouette merged into the unending darkness; it looked especially lonely.

Qin Muchen stared in front of him, his face covered with frostiness. His black suit caused him to exude an even colder aura, as if he had become one with the winter chill and could not separate himself from it.

Back in his car, Beef that had waited for him patiently barked happily at his arrival and tilted its head to look at him inquisitively. Qin Muchen ignored it and looked straight ahead as he started his engine and stepped on the accelerator. The black Bentley burst forward with speed and sped away, leaving only a cloud of dust behind. A moment later, only silence was left.

It was already ten minutes later when Su Ziyue and Gong Zeyang left the Su Group building. Su Ziyue held her bag and walked in front, ignoring Gong Zeyang who was following closely behind. She stepped into the elevator while Gong Zeyang stepped in after her quickly.

"Don't be angry. I'll give your phone back after dinner." Gong Zeyang entered the elevator behind her, his expression calm and his tone soft. He knew that Su Ziyue had a bad temper. However, the more she was upset, the more he felt interested in pursuing her.

She was unlike Su Yige, who always listened to what he said. After some time, he had felt bored in their relationship. What was more, Su Yige had suddenly gone overseas without informing him. She only told him when she was already there. On this day, she suddenly called to say that they should hold their wedding after the New Year. He had felt frustrated at that and wanted to see Su Ziyue.

Su Ziyue's expression was cold as she hugged her bag in her arms and chose to ignore his words.

Ding! The elevator doors opened and Su Ziyue hurried out quickly. As Gong Zeyang followed behind, his phone suddenly rang.

Su Ziyue stopped in her tracks as an idea flashed through her mind. She looked back at Gong Zeyang, pretending to wait for him. Gong Zeyang smiled at her and picked up the phone while walking toward her

Su Ziyue's gaze landed on his other hand which was holding her phone. She was going to wait for Gong Zeyang to come nearer to her before grabbing the phone from his hand.

"Yes, I'm at home now. You take a good rest..." As Gong Zeyang talked on the phone, he suddenly felt his hand being held by a pair of cold but soft hands. His heart fluttered as he was distracted momentarily.

Seeing that he wasn't prepared, Su Ziyue had grabbed her phone away from him. She had heard what he said just now and knew that it was Su Yige who had called. As Su Ziyue had managed to take her phone back, she glanced at Gong Zeyang mockingly as she left quickly in her heels.

Su Yige had heard the sound of a woman's heels on the other end of the line. She immediately asked cautiously, "Are you really at home? Why did I hear the sound of a woman's heels?"

Gong Zeyang frowned slightly as he replied after a slight pause, “I'm watching TV."

However, Su Yige intuitively felt that he was lying to her and felt worried at once. However, she didn't confront him directly but said softly, "Then you should rest early and take care of your health. I'll be back very soon."
