Marry Me Quick

Chapter 574

"Huh?" The servant was confused. She came to ask Ziyue for a meal; she wouldn't know where her phone was.

Seeing the servant standing dumbfounded at the door, Ziyue strode toward her and roared, "Are you deaf?! I'm

asking if you've seen my phone!"

The servant was scared stiff with a helpless and fearful look.

Realizing that she should not intimidate the servant as such, Ziyue inhaled deeply and softened her tone. "Please

leave first."

"Sure… Mrs. Qin, please remember to come downstairs for lunch." The servant muttered and trotted away quickly

as if she was chased by a ghost.

She bumped into Ke, who was walking in from the outside when she reached downstairs.

Noticing the servant's panicked look, Ke lifted her brows and asked calmly, "What happened?"

"N-Nothing." The servant was relieved to see Ke return.

Currently, Ke was the person with the best temper in this household.

She would occasionally joke with the servants. She was normally busy, so she never put the servants in a difficult

spot.

Since Muchen and Ziyue came, the servants' lives were no longer peaceful.

Initially, Ziyue was rather good-tempered. However, she was becoming more like Muchen recently, which made the

servants suffer.

Ke did not continue probing the servant but waved her hand to dismiss the servant.

After the servant left, Ke lifted her head to look upstairs.

Hearing a commotion from Ziyue's room, Ke strode upstairs.

Ziyue rummaged through the room but still did not find her phone.

Just as she was about to search underneath the bed, Ke walked in.

When Ziyue heard the sound of footsteps, she thought it was the servant. Before Ke could approach her, she

blurted, "I don't feel like eating. Leave me alone."

Ziyue was kneeling on the floor, groping for her phone under the bed. Her arms were tensed up as if she wanted to

flip the bed over. Ke was startled for a second when she saw the scene. "Mrs. Qin." She called out to Ziyue.

Ziyue turned to look at Ke upon recognizing her voice. She looked vacant for a second before standing up quickly

and tugging at Ke's arm. "Please help me find my phone. It went missing. I searched every corner of the room. The

only place left is beneath the bed. Please help me…"

She led Ke to the bedside while babbling on.

Ke furrowed her brows. She had heard about the morning's incident. Although she was not present, she could

imagine the scene.

She observed how Muchen's temperament changed lately. Nonetheless, she agreed with Muchen on Shichu's

matter. She thought Shichu deserved death.

"Your phone can't possibly be under the bed…" Ke uttered.

Slightly stunned, Ziyue turned to look at her and mumbled, "I've searched everywhere except under the bed..."

Ke moved her lips but was at a loss for words when she saw Ziyue in this state.

"Let me check for you. Please wait for me in the dining room." Ke said and led Ziyue downstairs.

Ziyue calmed down when Ke offered to help her find her phone.

Upon arriving at the dining room, Ke settled Ziyue down and walked away.

When she came in earlier, she noticed dozens of bodyguards inside and outside the villa. The tense atmosphere

was no different from when LK Group offended a notorious local gang not long after it was established.

At that time, they were too weak. Even though Muchen had Yuchuan, a powerful grandfather, he was arrogant and

barely reached out to him.

It had been many years since the incident happened. Ke couldn't remember how the situation was resolved as she

was young back then, and Muchen and Chuan handled the incident.

But now...

Muchen went this far just to prevent Ziyue from escaping.

Despite having undergone a dramatic change in temperament, his care toward Ziyue remained the same. But at

the same time, the old him wouldn't have acted so differently.

Muchen had his own standpoint on this incident, but so did Ziyue. In Ke's opinion, both were not wrong but had

different perspectives.

"Why do you guys have to guard Mrs. Qin here? Can't you stand guard at the main gate? It's unreasonable to lock

Mrs. Qin in the house and not allow her to leave!" If it was Ke, she couldn't stand being confined in the house.

The bodyguards were in a quandary. "This is Mr. Qin's order."

Ke snorted coldly and shot a glare at the bodyguard with her blue eye. "Did he order you to stop Mrs. Qin from

walking out of the door? Can't she even go to the yard? She can get depressed being cooped up in the house!"

The bodyguards stepped aside upon being questioned by Ke.

Ke felt more comfortable seeing them give in.

She walked to the yard to give Chuan a call. She could have called Muchen, but she didn't dare to.

Chuan only picked up the call after a while and spoke softly, as if he was afraid someone might overhear him. "Can

we talk after I get off work? I'm about to knock off soon. Try to pacify Mrs. Qin for now."

Ke had a hunch that Chuan was about to hang up, so she blurted, "Don't you hang up."

"Hurry up and tell me what it is, then." Nan Chuan looked through the door gap and saw Muchen standing before

his desk, hurling all the files in his hand.

Chuan felt his scalp tingling. Boss' temper is getting stranger… I wonder if I can survive until I get married and have

children.

"What does Boss want to do? Not only did he kill Shichu, but he also confined Mrs. Qin in the villa and didn't even

allow her to leave the main door. Does he want to drive Mrs. Qin crazy?"

Ke's tone was rough as she was annoyed.

Chuan was distressed, perceiving his younger sister venting her anger on him.

"If I could read Boss' mind, I wouldn't be talking to you now."

"You're with Boss every day. Don't you know his intention?!"

Chuan snorted inwardly and uttered, "Go and ask him yourself if you're so good!"

"You…"

Only then did Ke remember her initial intention of calling Chuan. "Do you know where Mrs. Qin's phone is?"

"Do you think Boss will leave Mrs. Qin's phone with her now that he has decided to lock her up? It's most probably

confiscated or thrown away."

Ke was rendered speechless.
