Chapter 310

Amused by the dog, Su Ziyue held Beef as she stretched out her arms and caressed its head. She comforted the dog by saying softly, "Alright, it's okay now. Stop jumping around. Stay put and be quiet; we're home now."

Qin Muchen stood beside and stared at Su Ziyue and Beef coldly.

After a while, he snorted and went into the bathroom.

Su Ziyue released Beef only after she heard the bathroom door closing. She grabbed its ear and whispered in a low voice, "You're finished. Your daddy is very angry with you. He wants to deal with you later."

As if Beef could understand Su Ziyue, it glanced in the direction of the bathroom before circling in the room twice. It then jumped onto the bed quickly and started to chew on the bed sheet.

Su Ziyue goggled at Beef's behavior with her jaw dropped in surprise. Is Beef challenging Qin Muchen now?

At that moment, the bathroom door sprung open. Qin Muchen opened the door from inside the bathroom and saw Beef that was chewing on the bed sheet immediately.

He had already removed all his clothes and was only wrapped in a towel.

Beef barked twice before it jumped off the bed quickly and dashed out of the room. Su Ziyue pulled the door open, followed it out of the room and took a look. She saw that Beef already ran downstairs in a haste.

Su Ziyue couldn't help but chuckle. "Exactly how did you mistreat it to make it so scared of you like that?"

Qin Muchen smirked and remarked, "If it is really scared of me, it wouldn't have dared to make such a mess around the house anymore, just like somebody."

He looked at Su Ziyue suggestively.

Su Ziyue blinked innocently. What did he mean by somebody? Perhaps he didn't mean me?

As Qin Muchen finished, he went to take his clothes. Then, he turned around and looked at Su Ziyue. "Do you want to take a bath together?"

"N-No, you should take your shower first!" As Su Ziyue finished speaking, she turned and went out.

Qin Muchen stood there motionlessly for a while before he turned and went back into the bathroom again.

Although Su Ziyue agreed to start all over again with him and even followed him back, he knew everything would be completely different now. There was a layer of invisible obstacles in between them.

After Su Ziyue went downstairs, she still half-heartedly taught Beef a lesson.

Beef lowered its ears while pretending to look innocent. It sat down in front of her obediently and stared at her with its cute glistening eyes, looking extremely pitiful.

Su Ziyue let out a snort. You just know how to pretend to be pitiful.

By the time Qin Muchen finished showering, Su Ziyue was almost done tidying up the living room.

Standing in the corridor on the second floor, Qin Muchen glanced downward at Su Ziyue, who was in the living room. He appeared slightly sullen when he saw her tidying up the living room swiftly.

His little woman, whom he used to worry about all the time, had changed so much within these two years. She became a lot more independent, mature and steady now. She could manage everything well in her work and life now.

For some unknown reasons, it made him feel somewhat dejected. It seems... she doesn't need me so much now.

"You've finished showering?"

Su Ziyue felt someone was looking at her. She turned around and saw Qin Muchen, who stood in the corridor on the second floor.

"Yeah." Qin Muchen came down. "You take your shower first. I'll take it from here." Qin Muchen walked toward her, held out his hand and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

When Qin Muchen prepared the meal, he purposely cooked according to Su Ziyue's preferences. He made two extremely spicy dishes.

In the end, when they had their meal, he noticed that Su Ziyue had barely touched those two dishes at all.

Su Ziyue noticed the way he looked at her and realized what he was thinking. She smiled and explained, "I lived with my uncle before this. Since he doesn't like spicy dishes, I seldom have them too."

This wasn't the real reason at all. In fact, it was because she had been taking care of her health for the past two years. She wasn't allowed to eat certain things due to her health. So, after she got used to her new lifestyle, she didn't like spicy dishes so much anymore.

Qin Muchen froze. For the past two years, he thought he had always watched her closely and secretly from the dark. He thought he had never strayed very far away from her at all. However, reality hit him; he realized that two years had passed and everything that happened in between was real. Her gradual changes over the two years had shown throughout every detail in her life.

Su Ziyue wasn't aware of Qin Muchen's unusual expression.

At that moment, her cell phone rang. She was taken aback when she saw who was calling. It was a call from Feng Xingyan. She thought she would call him right after the meal, but she didn't expect he would call her first.

Su Ziyue put down her chopsticks and clicked to answer the call. "Uncle Xingyan."

"Why didn't you call me when you came back to Yunzhou City?" There was a slightly angry tone in Feng Xingyan's voice.

Su Ziyue was slightly puzzled. What happened that caused Uncle Xingyan to talk to me in such a tone?

Su Ziyue glanced at Qin Muchen before she continued, "I just came back. I was planning to call you just now. I'm sorry for making you worry about me."

Feng Xingyan asked, "You don't know about the news yet?"

"I'm not so sure about that at the moment." Although Lu Shichu called to tell her about the news before, she hadn't checked it out on the Internet yet.

"Ziyue, I never thought of meddling in your personal life before, but you're the Executive Director of Yanyue Media now; everything you do and say concerns Yanyue Media's reputation. I believe you can settle all these by yourself."

Feng Xingyan didn't reprimand her. As he finished saying those words, he hung up the phone after reminding her several things and asking her to settle the problem carefully.

She remembered that Feng Xingyan had always been a gentle man who was usually mild-tempered, but he was an extremely strict man when it concerned work.

Su Ziyue lost her appetite after hanging up the phone. She had several mouthfuls of rice in a haste and said, "I'm full. I'd liked to go upstairs first and take a rest."

Suddenly, Qin Muchen called out to her, "Wait a second."

Su Ziyue raised her eyes and looked at him. Her eyes were bright and clear as she asked him, "What's the matter? Is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

After a pause, Qin Muchen said, "You don't have to go and check the news. I'll just tell you about it."

Of course, he knew she wasn't in the mood of having her meal. He knew she would certainly go and search for the news on the Internet too. It was better for him to tell her about it rather than let her see the news herself. Even if she would be angry, at least she would get angry right in front of him.

Upon hearing that, Su Ziyue turned around and sat down again.

"It's about us and Gu Hanyan. The news was published two days ago. Now, even the Su Family, the Gong Family and Yanyue Media were being dragged into the scandal..."

Some media made things even more complicated and dragged LK Group into the scandal as well. However, LK Group was after all a large corporation with powerful influences and well-connected resources, so it couldn't possibly be affected by just some insignificant entertainment news.

Su Ziyue could roughly guess what the news was about after she heard that.

Without waiting for Qin Muchen to finish his words, she picked up her cell phone and checked the news.

The earliest news was published three days ago. The news title was ambiguous, which would definitely cause readers to have their imaginations run wild. 'A movie star and her fiancé are about to face a crisis in their relationship-speculations about an involvement of a third party in between them...'

The news was published with several photos featured down below along with some comments that discussed who was in the right and who was to blame. There were a bunch of speculations in the discussion forum.

Another news update was published on the second day. The news directly indicated the movie star was Gu Hanyan, while her fiancé was Qin Muchen, the President of LK Group, and the third party was Su Ziyue, the second eldest daughter of the Su Family and the newly appointed Executive Director of Yanyue Media.

She read through the newest piece of news.

'According to the report, Su Ziyue went to a village for a charity project not long ago. Soon after that, the President of LK Group, Qin Muchen followed her to the village too. It was unknown whether they went on a secret date under the pretext of work, or they really went there for work...'
