Chapter 370
Aika raised an eyebrow. She was about to say something when Su Ziyue tugged at her arm.
She frowned and glanced at Su Ziyue.
Su Ziyue shook her head at her, "Ignore her."
Aika snorted. She leaned back and stayed silent.
Su Yige didn't know Aika's identity. Her target was Su Ziyue.
"Su Ziyue, what do you mean by that? No matter what happened in the past, I am your cousin!" Su Yige was not
intimidating at all.
She just felt like it was unfair.
She used to be proud of being the oldest daughter of the Su family. However, Su Group was acquired.
After that, she found solace when she married into the Gong family. She'd still have some influence in Yunzhou City.
However, Gong Shuzhe turned out to be a murderer who tried to frame Su Yizi.
She lost everything in a blink of an eye.
And now all that she had left was this b*stard in her belly.
Su Youcheng had accidentally pushed her when she went to see him. She had almost lost the baby then.
But it survived.
And then when the entire thing happened with Gong Shuzhe, she had wanted to abort the child.
But the doctor had told het that if she got rid of it, she'll have difficulty getting pregnant in the future.
She did not not want to be a mother. At least after giving birth to this child, the Gong family would claim this child.
Gong Zeyang wasn't dumb enough to reveal that he had been cheated on.
Gong Zeyang was the only person she could count on now.
"Cousin?" Su Ziyue raised an eyebrow at her. "My father is dead. I no longer have any ties with the Su family." She
said calmly.
Ding-
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe elevator doors opened.
Su Ziyue pulled Aika out with her.
For some reason, this hit a sore spot with Gong Zeyang. He rushed at her and cried out, "My father is dead. I guess
you're happy!"
"I'm not so sadistic that I'd be happy that someone died." Su Ziyue felt annoyed with Gong Zeyang.
"If only you and Qin Muchen did not force my father to make a public apology back then, he wouldn't have died in
prison! It's all in the past so why couldn't you let sleeping dogs lie? You…"
Su Ziyue glared at him and interjected, "Are you really upset because your father died? Or the real reason you're
upset is because you are no longer the young master of the Gong family; instead, now you're the son of a
murderer?"
"You!"
Su Ziyue had hit the nail on the head. Gong Zeyang's face paled as he stared at her.
"In any case, it doesn't matter how many years has passed. Even though my father has passed away, it doesn't
matter. I want my father's name to be cleared!"
Su Ziyue raised her voice at him.
She was thankful that Gong Zeyang did not return the feelings she had for him in the past.
Imagined if she had ended up with him. She would rather die.
"Aren't you the same?! You kept looking into your father's business because you didn't want to live your life as the
daughter of a murderer!"
Gong Zeyang didn't see any difference between the both of them.
"Please do not force your twisted opinions on me. If my father had really done those things, I would have atoned for
them on his behalf. But he was innocent. Naturally, I had to investigate to prove his innocence. Gong Zeyang, the
Gong family will be destroyed if you continue down this path."
He disgusted her so much that Su Ziyue could not look at him a second longer.
Back in their room, Aika did not inquire about what had just happened. Instead they started to chat about other
things.
When Qin Muchen arrived to see them chatting away happily, his face became stormy.
He squinted at them and there was a glint to his eyes, "Weren't you supposed to arrive half an hour later?"
Aika glanced at him. Her clear blue eyes were earnest. "But I wanted to come a bit earlier to talk to Ziyue. You
know I don't have any friends in Country Z."
"What do you not having any friends have anything to do with my woman?"
"Your woman is my friend." Aika tilted her chin up at him.
Su Ziyue coughed lightly. "That's enough. Let's go eat."
Both of the quietened down.
During dinner, Qin Muchen made sure that Su Ziyue's bowl was never empty because of her wounded arm. He took
good care of her.
Aika's eyes were so wide that one would fear that they would fall out.
Was he really the Qin Muchen she knew?
What in the world?!
Now, she kind of understood what Su Ziyue meant when she said that Qin Muchen would not hit her.
This was just… Insane!
The door to their room opened.
Nan Chuan entered.
He came to deliver them some wine.
It was rare for his boss to entertain guests in person. Which was why he didn't really think that much into it when he
was told to bring them some wine.
"Boss, would you like me to pour everyone a glass?"
"Go ahead." Qin Muchen had a strange look in his eyes.
Nan Chuan started pouring into Aika's glass.
He looked up at Aika and was shocked. "Princess Aika!"
"Do you know me?" Aika's eyes were oddly bright.
"Of course." Nan Chuan's voice was trembling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was from Country J. Of course he knew the royal family's only princess.
Princess Aika! His idol!
Qin Muchen pursed his lips and pretended that he did not see the entire exchange. He continued to assist Su Ziyue
with eating. "This is from their new menu. Do you like it?"
"Oh." Su Ziyue turned to watch Aika and Nan Chuan. She was more interested in what was happening between
those two.
Qin Muchen physically turned her head away. "Pay attention on your food."
…
After eating, Aika said 'goodbye' to Su Ziyue and quickly disappeared.
Su Ziyue was confused. Didn't Aika say that she enjoyed spending time with her? Why was she in such a hurry to
leave now?
Qin Muchen knew immediately what she was thinking about when he saw her hunched shoulders.
"She went to look for Nan Chuan." He said as he patted the top of her head.
"Why is she looking for him?" Su Ziyue was befuddled.
Qin Muchen gave her a meaningful look. "Because he is a man."
"…"
What kind of answer was that?
Su Ziyue turned to look back at Qin Muchen. Why did he look so ominous when he said that?
Even though she didn't quite understand what that mean, she had an inkling that Nan Chuan had fallen into Qin
Muchen's trap.
"Let her be. She'll find her own enjoyment elsewhere." Qin Muchen held her hand and led her out.
"Oh." Su Ziyue seemed to understand what he meant. She just wasn't sure if the 'enjoyment' Qin Muchen spoke of
was the same 'enjoyment' she was thinking of.
Qin Muchen turned to see her deep in thought. He pinched her cheek in frustration. "I told you to stay away from
her. Why won't you listen to me?"
"Didn't you say that she went to her man to look for some enjoyment? It's unlikely that she'd come looking for me
again." Su Ziyue was slightly displeased.
"Are you trying to say something?" Qin Muchen asked. He had an odd look about him.
