Chapter 196

After packing their things, both of them went down to the lobby of the branch office.

As soon as they reached the platform, the bus that An Xia usually waited for arrived, so she waved at Su Ziyue and

hopped onto the bus.

After the bus drove off, Su Ziyue decided to go home in a taxi.

When she was about to hail a taxi, a familiar Rolls-Royce stopped in front of her.

Nan Chuan stuck his head out and asked warmly, “Just got off work, Miss Su?”

Su Ziyue was slightly stunned, surprised to see Nan Chuan here.

“What a coincidence!”

It seemed that Nan Chuan had expected what she would say, so he smiled and replied, “It’s not a coincidence. Mr.

Qin told me to come fetch you.”

Qin Muchen told Nan Chuan to come fetch her?

Su Ziyue remained unperturbed on the outside while she squinted as she asked Nan Chuan, “Is there something he

needs me for?”

Nan Chuan secretly sighed in his heart and exclaimed inwardly, Mr. Qin predicts things like a prophet. Then, he

grinned while replying, “Yes, it’s regarding the case that happened at the hot spring.”

With that, he got out of the car and opened the car door for Su Ziyue.

Once Su Ziyue heard that it was about the case, she got into the car with Nan Chuan.

She thought Qin Muchen would definitely meet her at Lumiere Jade House for this discussion. Unexpectedly, Nan

Chuan drove her directly to Cloud Bay.

As soon as Su Ziyue alighted the car after they reached the entrance of the hilltop villa, Nan Chuan directly left

after saying goodbye to her.

Su Ziyue turned back to take a glance, feeling perplexed as to why he rushed to leave.

It had been more than ten days since she last returned to this villa. Standing in front of the main door, Su Ziyue had

complicated emotions.

She took out the key to open the door. Once she stepped in, Beef appeared out of nowhere and pounced on Su

Ziyue.

“Hi Beef.” Su Ziyue crouched to pet its head.

“Woof!”

Beef nuzzled against Su Ziyue’s head while barking repeatedly, seemingly expressing its overflowing happiness.

Su Ziyue hugged and stroked its head while looking up to glance across the hall. Although she knew that Beef

couldn’t understand her, she still asked, “Tell me, is your father here?”

Beef blinked while staring at her, looking confused yet cute.

Smiling, Su Ziyue closed the door and walked up the stairs.

There was no one in the study, so Qin Muchen was probably not home yet.

Entering the study, Su Ziyue walked to the window and spotted a car driving in this direction from a short distance

away.

When the car approached, she realized that it was Qin Muchen’s car.

At that moment, Su Ziyue had a subtle weird feeling.

She turned to go downstairs, only to bump into Qin Muchen, who had opened the main door and was walking in,

looking hasty.

When he looked up and saw Su Ziyue, who was standing at the staircase, he was stunned for a second before he

said, “You’re here.”

“Yeah.” Su Ziyue replied flatly.

Then, silence permeated the air.

Qin Muchen went to the kitchen and poured two glasses of water. Then, he walked to the sofa to sit down, holding a

glass of water for himself while pushing the other glass to the opposite of him.

Su Ziyue instinctively sat across from him, but she didn’t take that glass of water, causing Qin Muchen’s eyes to

become dim.

“I—”

“You —”

Both of them didn’t expect that they would speak at the same time, so they were startled after hearing each

other’s voices.

After pondering, Su Ziyue said, “You go first.”

Upon hearing that, Qin Muchen said, “Sit here for now. Half an hour later, dinner will be ready.”

With that, he got up and headed to the kitchen.

Surprised, Su Ziyue quickly called him, “Qin Muchen.”

Qin Muchen turned back to look at her after hearing her calls, but he didn’t speak.

Opening her mouth, Su Ziyue wanted to ask him about what he wanted to discuss with her, but she found that the

question was stuck in her throat.

The way he looked at her made it impossible for her to say such words of rejection.

Half an hour later, three dishes and one bowl of soup were placed on the table.

There were two vegetable dishes and one meat dish, all looking delectable and mouth-watering.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Su Ziyue bowed her head and started to eat in silence.

Ever since that day at Lumiere Jade House, after what he did to her because of the child, she hadn’t returned to the

villa at Cloud Bay nor eaten the food he cooked.

Now that she was sitting at the same table with him again, she felt strange as if it had been a long time since they

did this.

Noticing that Su Ziyue was reluctant to move her chopsticks, Qin Muchen asked gloomily, “Is the food not to your

preference?”

“No, I’m not hungry. I’m already full, so after you finish your food, we’ll discuss matters.” With that, Su Ziyue put

down her chopsticks, waiting to discuss matters with him.

Anger appeared in Qin Muchen’s eyes when he saw how she couldn’t wait to get their discussion over with.

Clenching his chopsticks, he swallowed his words in the end.

He slowly munched on his food. Sitting across from him, Su Ziyue felt awkward to just sit and watch as he ate, so

she took out her phone to scroll.

However, a headline jumped into her sight when she turned on her phone and surfed the internet.

“Wealthy mistress involved in a murder case!”

Upon reading this title, Su Ziyue was intrigued so she tapped into it. As expected, it was about Zhou Lingyu.

Although the article didn’t clearly state the name, the readers could easily figure out that it was Zhou Lingyu

through the description.

There was already a group of ‘truth lords’ in the comment section.

“No wonder her daughter’s engagement was canceled!”

“Could it be that it’s because the young girl seduced her husband?”

“Wealthy families are indeed full of disputes. Fortunately, I’m poor.”

The commenters were randomly guessing, and all of their guesses seemed unbelievable.

After reading two pages of comments, Su Ziyue felt that none of them were even close to the truth.

In fact, she didn’t know why Zhou Lingyu murdered Xu Youran either.

She looked at the time that the news was released and realized that it was less than 20 minutes ago. Nevertheless,

the Su family must already know about this.

As expected, her phone vibrated when that thought crossed her mind.

It was a call from Su Yige.

After pondering, she muted her phone and put it aside, deciding not to answer the call.

Then, she met Qin Muchen’s dark eyes when she raised her head. “Who called you? Why didn’t you answer it?”

He asked as if he was interrogating her, making her feel uncomfortable.

“I don’t feel like answering it.” Su Ziyue turned her head to the side, averting her gaze.

Without uttering a word, Qin Muchen cleaned the table and turned to walk up the stairs.

Having no choice, Su Ziyue could only follow him into the study.

Qin Muchen walked behind the table and took out a booklet before handing it to Su Ziyue.

“What’s this?” Su Ziyue asked curiously while reaching out to take it.

“It’s Xu Youran’s diary.” While speaking, Qin Muchen took out a cigarette and lit it.

After the lighter was ignited, he put it down with a frown. He then crumpled the cigarette and threw it into the trash

can.

Meanwhile, Su Ziyue sat at a side and quickly read through Xu Youran’s diary.

The diary had turned yellow, and the first few pages were just about trivial girlish thoughts. Nothing special.

But she knew that there must be something important in this diary since Qin Muchen gave it to her.

After pondering, Su Ziyue rapidly flipped through the pages and stopped at the days four years ago, when Xu

Youran had framed her.
