Chapter 395
Su Ziyue tightened her hands on her chopsticks, and her face grew hard under the shadows cast by the lamppost.
An Xia continued to talk but realized that Su ZIyue wasn't pasying attention to her. She waved her hand in front of
Su Ziyue's face.
"Are you there? I'm talking to you."
Su Ziyue awoke from her trance and replied, "What did you say?"
She then turned back to look at Qin Muchen again.
Qin Muchen sat with his back facing her a few tables away. The girl was still talking to him excitedly, but Su Ziyue
could not hear what she was saying. An Xia had realized that Su Ziyue was paying attention to something behind
her. She turned around, but at that exact moment, two waiters walked by, and they were obscuring her view of Qin
Muchen.
She turned to Su Ziyue and asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"
Su Ziyue saw that she wasn't able to see Qin Muchen, "I'm just thinking about work, let's eat." She replied with a
smile, but her gaze was still on Qin Muchen.
Who is that girl that she could make Qin Muchen, that doesn't care about women to come to this place?
After finding out about Qin Muchen's serious digestive issues, Su Ziyue had never asked him to come with her to
these kind of food stalls. Although the food was delicious, it was unsanitary and would probably cause more
problems for Qin Muchen's weak stomach.
Su Ziyue continued to eat without really paying attention to her surroundings and An Xia. After a moment, she lifted
her head to look at where Qin Muchen was sitting to see that he and the girl were not there anymore. She looked
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtaround and saw that they had walked a distance away.
The girl had long hair wrapped in a shawl and wore a white shirt with a short skirt. Judging from her looks, she must
be a cute and innocent girl.
Su Ziyue bit her lip, her heart was troubled.
…
The injury on Su Ziyue's arm had healed quite well, so she returned to work at Yanyue Media. Since she had been
away for quite some time, her work had piled up, and she needed to work overtime. Her life went back to being
busy once more.
Likewise, Qin Muchen did not call her or text her at all during this time.
She would constantly think about the image of him and that girl leaving together from that day at the night market
and Qin Muchen telling her not to make something out of nothing.
Just because we have a difference of opinion, I'm making something out of nothing? And then, there's Lin Zixi…
Su Ziyue threw down the documents in her hand out of irritation, put on a jacket and left the office. She felt
strangled with those thoughts and planned to have lunch before returning to work.
She walked by Li Qingluo's desk and saw her biting her finger while looking at her phone with undivided attention.
"Li Qingluo." Su Ziyue called.
Li Qingluo quickly threw her phone to the side and stood up.
"Director Su." She greeted loudly.
Su Ziyue frowned. I only wanted to tell her I was going for lunch. Why is she being so serious?
Su Ziyue looked at the phone that was thrown to a side, "What were you doing?"
"I… I was…" Li Qingluo's voice got softer, "Reading a …"
"Oh?"
It was not a big deal. Li Qingluo had approved a lot since entering the company. It was not a problem for her to
make a few small mistakes. Yet, she looked frightened from being spotted as slacking.
Su Ziyue continued with a laugh, "What is it? Is it good?"
"Hmm?" Li Qingluo lifted her head and released a breath she was holding when she saw that Su Ziyue was not
going to scold her. "The male lead is older, and the female lead is still in school. They're ten years apart, it's rather
cute…" The details rushed out of Li Qingluo's mouth.
Older, ten years apart. Su Ziyue couldn't help but think about that girl, and her heart dropped.
"I'm going on my lunch break; you should make time to go too." Su Ziyue said and then left.
…
Su Ziyue went to a random restaurant and ordered food. She sat by the window and started to space out.
It's so laughable that the world's hardest thing to do is knowing a person's heart, yet it is always changing, so how
can I guess what that person is thinking? And even if I do know what they're thinking what am I going to do? Go
look for Qin Muchen…? Then what will I say? That I am willing to accept Lin Zixi? That it's alright for him to deal with
Su Yige? Or ask him about his relationship with that girl?
She couldn't do it. It was always her who went to look for him first, who willingly gave in to him, but yielding to him
would not solve the problem.
"Hi, do you mind if I sit here?" A clear female voice suddenly rang out.
Su Ziyue lifted her head and saw a familiar-looking young girl. She gave her a brief look, then lowered her eyes

"Sorry, I like to eat by myself."
The girl pretended not to have heard anything and sat down with a stiff smile on her face.
"How are you? I'm Yun Xianxian."
Su Ziyue was on her phone, and continued to ignore her.
Yun Xianxian had thought that Su Ziyue would be curious enough to ask what she was doing here, yet she was
being ignored.
"Hey, I'm talking to you! You're being really rude." Yun Xianxian had raised her voice and her once clear and crisp
tone turned jarring to the ears, it made Su Ziyue uncomfortable.
"Did you not hear me, Miss Yun? I like to eat by myself and not with strangers." Su Ziyue looked at her with cold and
displeased eyes.
"You know my name now, so I'm not a stranger anymore. Also, I know who you are." Yun Xianxian was pleased that
Su Ziyue had finally answered her.
Su Ziyue could not be bothered dealing with Yun Xianxian anymore, so she called out to a waiter. The waiter quickly
came over.
"I don't know this lady, yet she insists on sitting here." Su Ziyue told the waiter while staring straight into Yun
Xianxian's eyes.
Seeing that Su Ziyue was going to chase her away she quickly blurted, "Hey! I do know you; you're Su Ziyue, Qin
Muchen's wife."
Su Ziyue could not quite remember what the girl at the night market looked like since she had only seen her once.
She couldn't be sure that Yun Xianxian was that girl, although she looked familiar.
Is this girl so full of curiosity that she came to look for me herself?
"Do you know me?" Su Ziyue asked with feigned shock.
