Marry Me Quick

Chapter 654

Chapter 654 It Would Put Everyone in a Difficult Position

There were more bodyguards than needed to stop one lady.

And within the airplane, the only one they would listen to was Chuan.

She turned around and begged Chuan to let her off.

Chuan's face was clouded with guilt and worry. He seemed to be moved by her earnest request.

But he was reminded of the difficulties Muchen had to go through for her to return to her country.

He had to take Ziyue back to her country, no matter the circumstances. It was Muchen's direct order to him.

"Mrs. Qin, the plane has already taken off. There's no way for it to stop now. Why don't you take a seat, as the flight will be long."

Chuan wasn't going to be easily swayed by her anymore.

"What about Muchen? What is he up to? Why aren't you staying here?" She still couldn't wrap her head around everything.

Ziyue was bewildered by the sudden change of events. Muchen had planned all this, and she had no clue about it.

Was he good at deceiving her, or was she too naïve to trust his every word?

Chuan's eyes froze at the flood of questions. He then answered dryly, "Mr. Qin will settle everything here."

In reality, Chuan was also kept in the dark as to Muchen's unforeseen plans for Ziyue's return.

His only clue was the recent information he had received from Muchen. He told him that the assets would be transferred back to their home country and he would find a suitable time to send her back to her home country.

Muchen didn't specify the reason.

Before this, they were preoccupied with work.

"He will settle it! He will settle it! It's easy to say, but he's only human. He has been busy with LK Group, and Princess Aika got him involved in the presidential election. Moreover, who knows what trouble Gritty would cause him? Not to mention even his grandpa is against him. He's all alone in Country J, constantly getting targeted. He wouldn't have anyone to talk to if I left him."

Ziyue felt overwhelmed thinking about the hardships he had to go through by himself. Her palms covered her face as she said, "Although I couldn't help him much when I was around…"

She couldn't help him much if she had stayed, but she could at least care and provide companionship by his side.

He had to work from day till night and suffered from stomach problems.

Ziyue felt more emotionally tormented as she mulled over her dreadful thoughts. The feeling was suffocating, as if a lump of cotton was stuck in her throat.

She rubbed off her tears, and with her visibly bloodshot eyes, she pushed the bodyguard away and walked straight to Chuan to grab him. "Ask them to land the plane back where we came from. I need to get down!"

Chuan didn't move an inch from where he stood.

Suddenly, he waved his hands at the bodyguard to make them leave.

His face turned stone cold when he said solemnly, "Mrs. Qin, you must calm down. Mr. Qin has been informed of your departure. If you return right now, it will put everyone in a difficult position."

The underlying meaning of his message was that Muchen had decided on this date and time for a specific reason.

Based on how much Muchen cared for Ziyue, he wouldn't want her to leave his side for a second. His decision to send her home would only mean her staying in Country J was no longer safe.

Or he wasn't able to protect her anymore.

Chuan had his head all over the place with his work. But now that he had time for a breather, Ziyue's words triggered him to think of this alternative reason.

Following the realization, he kept his guard up no matter how earnestly Ziyue begged him to reveal the truth to her.

Although what he concluded from his observation of Muchen's actions wasn't positive, he didn't let it show on his face.

He felt uneasy and worried about Muchen's circumstances. Despite his sincere concern and best wishes for Muchen, there was a lingering sense of resentment towards him.

He had been through thick and thin with Muchen for over ten years, but he chose to hide something crucial from him.

While returning to Yunzhou City, Ziyue didn't exchange a single word with Chuan.

Chuan had wanted to speak up several times but decided to keep his mouth sealed.

… This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

The plane landed at Yunzhou City.

It was a last-minute trip back to Yunzhou, where no one knew about their arrival. Hence, there wasn't anyone there to receive them from the airport.

Ziyue felt jittery throughout the journey and couldn't get any rest on the plane.

Once they landed, she immediately called Muchen.

She couldn't care less about the time difference when she made the call.

"Have you arrived?" Muchen's voice sounded hoarse and exhausted. That was when she realized it was in the middle of the night in Country J.

Although Muchen was feeling drowsy, it wasn't because he was woken up from his sleep.

Instead, it was because he hadn't been sleeping all this while.

Ziyue felt a knot in her chest when she heard his voice. Her grip tightened on the handphone. Although she had contemplated the questions she wanted to ask him during the flight, the only sentence she could express at that overwhelming moment was, "How can you do this to me?"

How could he send her home without saying a word?

Didn't he say they would discuss everything together, no matter how difficult it was?

How could he make this decision without considering her feelings?

The night was getting darker on the other end of the phone call.

Muchen could sense her tears welling up from the tone of her voice. His face tensed up at that thought. After a while, he moved his body to relieve the sore in his back from sitting too long.

He took a deep breath before replying, "Haven't you missed Zixi? Aren't you happy you can see him soon?"

When his last word left his mouth, the call ended abruptly as she scolded, "Jerk."

Muchen's eyes quivered slightly. After a few moments of silence, he finally laid his handphone on his table.

He raised his arms to rub his eyebrows. He felt the exhaustion weighing on him after recently dealing with a heavy workload.

…

Ziyue regretted ending the call.

He sounded tired and hadn't gotten any rest despite how late it was there.

Before he let her go, he pretended to be drunk to spend more time with her at the mountaintop. He even pestered her the whole night, wanting to talk to her. Recalling what had happened that night, he must've felt sad to let her go.

Regardless, she couldn't speak to him calmly after being tossed into a plane without her consent.

"Mrs. Qin, it's time to get off the plane." Chuan suddenly appeared beside her.

Ziyue looked outside the window. It was the view she grew up with.

She nodded, "Alright."

Soon after, she left her seat and went down the private jet.

Ziyue stood in the middle of the airport. She lifted her head and saw the unique landmarks of Yunzhou City, but it felt like she was in another world.

In reality, she had only left this place for a few months.

Chuan reminded her, "Mrs. Qin, head this way."

Although they didn't inform anyone about their arrival, they prepared a driver to fetch them from the airport.

Ziyue lifted her head and saw a few black cars lined up at a distance with bodyguards on standby.

Bodyguards followed her wherever she went, making her seem like an upper-class lady from an affluent family background.

Ziyue was no longer resisting them as she was already here.

Even her passport was with Muchen, so she could do nothing to escape.
