Marry Me Quick

Chapter 298

Leaning back against the headboard, Su Ziyue raised her hand to press the back of it against her forehead. As the

cool back of her hand touched her fevered forehead, she sighed comfortably before saying in a feeble voice, “I’m

sorry to have troubled you. Just put the medicine here; I’ll drink it when it has cooled down a little later.”

i Qingluo had a look of concern in her eyes when she saw Su Ziyue in such a state. She knew that Su Ziyue knew

her manners; even though Su Ziyue was physically a little delicate, she wasn’t finicky. Instead, she conformed to

local practices very readily.

The house in which they were staying right now was very simple and crude. The roof was made of thatch grass and

its walls were made up of mud bricks.

The houses here were all thatched because tiles were too much of an expense for the families here. Moreover, this

place was difficult to reach by transport.

The floor inside the room was full of bumps and hollows, and there were no windows. When Li Qingluo came in

earlier, she even saw rats…

Even Li Qingluo, who grew up in the countryside since her childhood, couldn’t help but sigh when she saw such

surroundings.

Worried, she urged again before leaving, “In that case, I’ll put the medicine here. Remember to drink it.”

“I got it,” said Su Ziyue as her lips curled up into a faint smile.

Li Qingluo was too clumsy in dealing with things, but she was very diligent and eager to learn. Su Ziyue was grateful

to her no matter whether she was sincere or not when she showed her concern for her at this moment.

Meanwhile, back at LK Group’s branch in Yunzhou City, a top management executive was analyzing the data for this

quarter in the meeting room. After finishing his speech, he turned to look at Qin Muchen, who was sitting in the

head seat.

Obviously, he was asking for Qin Muchen’s opinion.

Still clad in a well-pressed pure black suit, Qin Muchen leaned back in his chair with a pensive look in his eyes.

Everyone thought he was contemplating something.

After waiting for an entire ten minutes, Qin Muchen slightly raised his eyelids to look at the top management

executive, who was standing in front of the projector with an embarrassed look on his face.

However, what Qin Muchen said after that surprised everyone. Staring at the top management executive for half a

second, he asked, “Have you finished your speech?”

Only then did everyone come to the sudden realization that their President wasn’t thinking about the data analysis

just now.

“Yes…” The top management executive stealthily clenched his fists as it was apparent that he was feeling nervous.

“Then that’s it for now. The meeting is over,” said Qin Muchen as he stood up and went out before everyone else.

After Qin Muchen left, everyone shifted their gazes to Qin Muchen’s secretary, who also looked a little embarrassed

as she said, “I’ll be leaving first as well…”

She had no idea what was wrong with the President lately. Qin Muchen did not look much different from before on

the outside, but the secretary, who had been in more contact with him, knew that something seemed to have

happened to him recently, for he was a little absent-minded.

However, as a well-trained secretary, she couldn’t possibly ask the President about his matters.

After leaving the meeting room, Qin Muchen walked while taking out his cell phone.

Only when he took out his cell phone did he recall that he did not have the phone number of the person-in-charge

of the partnership project with Yanyue Media.

He pinched the space between his eyebrows and returned to his office in displeasure.

His secretary came in after him with a stack of documents in her hands that the executives had told her to hand

them to the President. “President, these are the documents submitted after the meeting just now…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Qin Muchen interrupted her right away, saying, “Put them over there. You

may go out now.”

The secretary could only put down the documents and left.

After a while, the person-in-charge came to see Qin Muchen. “President.”

“Have a seat.” Qin Muchen sat firmly on the executive chair behind his work desk with an unusually calm

expression.

The person-in-charge knew that Qin Muchen was waiting for him to report the progress of the partnership project.

“The project plan given by the liaison from Yanyue Media…”

Qin Muchen raised his hand to cut the person-in-charge short. Then, he asked, “Where’s their director?”

The person-in-charge was perplexed in his mind, but he still answered honestly, “Yanyue Media’s team set out a few

days ago after deciding on all the matters last week. I heard that Director Su went with them as well.”

He thought that Yanyue Media attached great importance to this project, for the company’s executive director even

took charge of it personally.

She set out a few days ago? Qin Muchen’s face darkened a little when he heard what the person-in-charge said.

Upon seeing Qin Muchen’s darkened expression, the person-in-charge dared not speak for a moment, for he

couldn’t figure out if he had just said something wrong.

Qin Muchen asked him coldly, “Why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”

“It was my mistake…” The person-in-charge thought he only had to tell Qin Muchen the progress on the partnership

project regularly. Right now, though, it seemed what the President cared about was not the progress on the

partnership project, but Director Su of Yanyue Media.

As the person-in-charge hit upon this possibility, he was stunned deep down inside, and he hung his head even

lower.

Qin Muchen then said with a wave of his hand, “Go out first, and give me a copy of the information about that

place.”

Upon hearing Qin Muchen’s words, the person-in-charge gave him all the documents about the remote mountain

village that Su Ziyue went to.

Qin Muchen’s face darkened as he read the document. There’s no television and cell phone reception in this place?

Also, the power supply there is unstable and breaks down from time to time? What the hell is this place?

Pressing his lips together, Qin Muchen crumpled the document up into a ball and flung it out forcefully.

She was so skinny as if she could be blown away by the wind. Therefore, what was the point of her going to a place

with such rough conditions?

Qin Muchen could hardly sit still as the thought flashed across his mind, so he grabbed his cell phone and went out.

Qin Muchen’s secretary was in her cubicle when she saw him whizzing past her like the wind. She immediately tried

to stop him, asking, “President, may I know where you are going? Would you like me to get something ready for

you?”

Qin Muchen ignored her since he had no time to even answer her.

As a result, his secretary could only watch him leaving the office. She sat down silently while thinking to herself, In a

moment, the top management executives will ask me again where the President went and why he didn’t read the

data analysis they submitted… It isn’t easy to be a secretary with high pay when one has a willful boss who likes to

leave as he pleased.

Qin Muchen went back right away to the villa in Cloud Bay. After packing a simple piece of luggage, he drove

straight to the airport.

When he was halfway to the airport, Bai Jingshu called him. As soon as he answered the phone, Bai Jingshu said, “I

found something interesting.”

“Get straight to the point.” Qin Muchen had no time to listen to Bai Jingshu’s nonsense.

Bai Jingshu had long since accustomed himself to Qin Muchen’s bad temper, so he continued to keep Qin Muchen in

suspense. “Guess who was the one that secretly messed about with Su Group over the last two years?”

Beep... Qin Muchen had hung up the phone right away.

“Sh*t!” said Bai Jingshu to his cell phone on the other end of the line.

F*ck, what a bad temper Qin Muchen has! Bai Jingshu thought to himself. Still, he called Qin Muchen again.

This time, Bai Jingshu broke the suspense as soon as the call was put through. He said hastily, “It was Feng Xingyan,

the President of Feng Group in Jingcheng City!”
