Marry Me Quick

Chapter 494

Muchen could not believe that he nearly tripped when Ziyue pushed him aside as she was not a physically strong

person. By the time Muchen could steady himself, Ziyue was already kneeling next to Shichu.

Looking up, Shichu saw Ziyue had offered her arm to help him up, but he was also aware that concern was written

all over her face.

He glanced at Muchen before smiling at Ziyue to assure her he was fine, but his smile was short-lived. Suddenly, he

felt something rise up his throat and began to cough.

Ziyue's eyes widened with terror as she gasped. "Let me take you to the hospital!"

However, Shichu merely waved her offer aside. "I'm fine. And please don't blame Mr. Qin. We had a minor

misunderstanding, so don't worry."

"I don't blame him. Now, let me take you to the hospital, okay?" Ziyue responded promptly

Shichu raised one of his eyebrows – he had a feeling that Ziyue blamed Muchen for beating him. Her insistence to

send him to the hospital merely solidified that gut feeling.

Shichu was unable to dissuade Ziyue from taking him to the hospital, but Muchen was not going to let them go

easily.

"Stop it, Ziyue." Muchen's tone could freeze one's blood.

"Get out of our way." Ziyue glared daggers at Muchen and watched as his brows drew taut and the muscles of his

jaw clenched. Muchen was a smoking volcano – she was sure he would erupt in anger soon, but she, too, was in a

terrible mood.

Although she was unaware of the misunderstanding between Muchen and Shichu, she believed that Muchen should

not have beaten Shichu up to the point of shedding blood.

She was also certain that Muchen had discriminated against Shichu since their first meeting.

Furthermore, she knew Shichu was even-tempered and would not have initiated a fight with Muchen.

Her defiance fanned Muchen's anger even further.

"You're coming with me." Muchen seethed as he grabbed Ziyue's arm, but Ziyue would not go down without a fight.

"What are you doing?!" She yelled as she tried to struggle out of his grasp, but she was weak compared to

Muchen's brute-like strength.

Muchen smirked at Shichu and began to drag Ziyue away from him. In the meantime, Ziyue was twisting around,

trying to free herself.

Shichu jogged ahead of Muchen to block him. "Can't you hear her screaming at you? Let her go!"

Shichu lost all respect for Muchen, he was not going to be polite to him.

Shoving him aside, Muchen began to stride toward Yuchuan's room with Ziyue in tow.

"Muchen, stop it!" Ziyue felt like she had never hated Muchen and his preposterous temper so much.

Detecting that Shichu was approaching him again, Muchen swung his fist at the other man. However, he did not

expect Ziyue to block the punch.

Ziyue knew that Shichu and Muchen's animosity must have been birthed by Muchen's disdain for Shichu. Hence her

first instinct was to protect Muchen from harming Shichu when she felt him swing his weight at Shichu.

Muchen unleashed his anger and resentment in his punch. Meanwhile, Ziyue was a slender woman. The weight

behind Muchen's fist caused Ziyue to stumble backward into Shichu's arms.

Clenching her chest in agony, Ziyue groaned quietly. She bit her lips to prevent any sounds from escaping, but she

felt like her chest would burst.

"Ziyue!" His voice trembled as he called her.

Ziyue patted her chest with one hand, but with her other hand, she pushed Shichu away gently. "I'll be fine. You're a

doctor, so you should know your condition is more severe. I won't be able to send you to the hospital, so you need

to do it yourself. I'll apologize properly next time."

Shichu knew that Muchen must have lost control, and the punch was fueled by anger and hatred toward him.

Despite the pain in her chest, Ziyue tried to keep a straight face and even asked him to leave.

However, Shichu also knew that Ziyue was more sorry for him than she was angry at Muchen. Almost everything

she had done was because she wanted to apologize to him.

At the same time, he knew that Muchen might not know what Ziyue was feeling.

"I'll go for now. I'm sorry – I was here for the birthday party, but my misunderstanding with Muchen got in the way."

Ziyue smiled wanly, but in pain, at him.

Glancing at Muchen, Shichu felt his expression break a little as he turned to leave.

Shichu turned around to leave, and the pain from the beating suddenly crashed upon him, causing him to limp a

little.

Muchen was really rough just now. He huffed.

Muchen and Ziyue stood a few feet apart, silently observing each other for a few moments as Shichu left them.

"You should go to the birthday party. We will talk about this later at night." Ziyue whispered in agony as her chest

was still hurting from the blow.

Muchen swallowed with concern as he contemplated Ziyue, pale with pain. Although she wore heels, she was still

much shorter than him. He also realized that her words did not have a cold bite to them anymore.

He pressed his lips together nervously. "Let me take a look in the room."

"I'm fine." Ziyue shook her head as she turned away, but Muchen quickly grabbed her arm.

He knew how strong he was and that he had hurt her badly this time. He recalled the times they were in bed

together – he would accidentally leave bruises on her body even when he was gentle with her. He must have hurt

her terribly this time because he did not hold back his punch.

However, Ziyue was adamant. "I'm fine. Let's talk about what happened between Shichu and you later tonight."

Although she was upset that Muchen beat Shichu, she knew that he would not have done it for no reason.
