Chapter 141


    Qin Muchen raised his eyebrow when he noticed her behavior. He took the thermometer from her and


    put it under his armpit.


    After a while, he took it out and passed it to Su Ziyue.


    Su Ziyue pursed her lips before she passed the thermometer to Lu Shichu.


    Lu Shichu took it and had a look. He frowned slightly. “39.6 degree Celsius, high fever.”


    However, Qin Muchen seemed very conscious and wide awake.


    “Give me my medicine please.” Qin Muchen’s voice was a little dry and hoarse.


    Su Ziyue passed a ss of water by the side to him immediately.


    Lu Shichu took a nce at Qin Muchen before giving him his medicine. Then, he reminded Su Ziyue


    about some precautions that needed to be taken before he left the house, because he still needed to


    go back to work at the hospital.


    After sending Lu Shichu out the door, Su Ziyue fed Qin Muchen his medicine.


    Qin Muchen swallowed the pills without even blinking. Hey down on the bed after taking his


    medicine. Su Ziyue held a ss of water in her hand, thinking of getting him to drink more water.


    “Qin Muchen?” Su Ziyue patted him on his face. “Have some more water.”


    Qin Muchen merely uttered a single word without even opening his eyes. “No.”


    His reaction made Su Ziyue suddenly realize that he had been forcing himself to remain in a seated


    position since just now. She found his behavior rather annoying and funny at the same time. She


    thought it was ridiculous for Qin Muchen to act tough for no particr reason.


    Although she didn’t know the exact reason for Qin Muchen’s antagonism toward Lu Shichu, she


    decided not to call Lu Shichu toe over next time he fell sick again. Another reason for her decision


    was that Lu Shichu was very busy with all the matters he had to attend to as the Deputy Director of the


    hospital.


    Qin Muchen started sweating after sleeping for a while. Su Ziyue took a towel and wiped the sweat off


    his face. She then took another wet towel and ced it on his forehead.


    Qin Muchen just had his medicine. He should feel much better after a rest. I suppose he will want to


    have something to eat after he wakes up?


    After pondering for a while, Su Ziyue poured him a huge ss of water and ced it on the table


    beside his bed. Then, she carried her tabletputer and went downstairs.


    Usually, he was the one who took care of her and cooked for her. On this day, it was her turn to take


    care of him instead. Although she didn’t know how to take care of people, she could learn to do it after


    several practices, like the way she did when she prepared the steamed fish with scallion oilst time.


    Su Ziyue frowned when she thought of that dish. After that, she went into the kitchen.


    A patient should have a light and mild meal. Lu Shichu suggested that she could make some chicken


    soup before he left.


    Su Ziyue hurried into the kitchen after calling the office to apply for a leave.


    Three hours had passed after she finished preparing the chicken soup.


    She prepared the soup ording to the simplest recipe she could find. When it was done, she thought


    the soup tasted alright.


    She didn’t put any salt in the soup, so it was very nd after tasting it. However, Lu Shichu reminded


    her that Qin Muchen should have a light meal now. So, she decided not to put salt in the soup and let it


    be nd instead.


    She came out of the kitchen with arge bowl of chicken soup and ced it on the dining table. She


    was about to take it upstairs after it had cooled down for a bit when she heard someone knock on the


    door.


    Su Ziyue was a little surprised. She wondered who it would be since it was almost lunch time.


    She walked over to open the door and saw the beaming Nan Chuan.


    “Miss Su.” Nan Chuan nodded at her politely.


    Su Ziyue knew he woulde. He must havee here to look for Qin Muchen to discuss work.


    “Qin Muchen is down with a fever. If you have any work-rted matters, talk to him after he gets


    better.” As soon Su Ziyue finished, she asked, “He’s sleeping in the bedroom. Do you want to have a


    look at him?”


    “A fever?” Nan Chuan walked inside while murmuring to himself at the same time.


    Su Ziyue closed the door behind him, but someone hade again, so she had to open the door once


    more.


    However, Su Ziyue would never ask the person who came this time if she would like to take a look at


    Qin Muchen.


    “Anything you want, Miss Gu?” Su Ziyue asked while blocking her entrance at the doorway.


    This was her house and she had the final say in everything. She just didn’t want to let Gu Hanyan


    come into the house.


    Gu Hanyan studied her carefully from head to toe, a disdainful look shing through her eyes. “Of


    course I’m here for Muchen.”


    Su Ziyue knew what the look in Gu Hanyan’s eyes meant after she lowered her head and took a look at


    herself.


    This morning after she woke up, before she even had the time to have breakfast, she simply washed


    her face and straight away called Lu Shichu toe over to check on Qin Muchen. She was still


    wearing in casual home wear without much designs on it. She just had a pair of slippers on and


    didn’t even put any makeup on her face. Since she had been busy preparing soup and cooking in the


    kitchen, her forehead was drenched in sweat, which dampened her bangs and made her appear


    disheveled.


    “Oh, he’s sick. So, he’s unfit to see any guest now.” As she said that, Su Ziyue made a move to close


    the door.


    However, Gu Hanyan knew Su Ziyue would do something like that, so she stepped into the house


    directly and stopped her from closing the door. “Of course I need toe and visit him since he’s sick.


    Even though you’re his wife, don’t you think you’re being too strict and care a tad bit too much? As his


    friend, I don’t even have the right to visit him?”


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Su Ziyue gave her a look. Without waiting for her to say anything, Gu Hanyan spoke again. She inched


    closer toward Su Ziyue and said in a low voice which only the both of them could hear, “Or, you’re not


    afraid of me seeing him, but you’re afraid that I’ll snatch him back?”


    Snatch… him back? Haha! What a shameless woman!


    “Mrs. Qin, Miss Gu…” Hearing Nan Chuan’s voice from behind, Su Ziyue suddenly remembered that


    they had another guest in the house.


    Nan Chuan had been working with Qin Muchen for some time now, so he knew Gu Hanyan too.


    Su Ziyue was very pleased with him addressing her as Mrs. Qin. She turned around and looked at Nan


    Chuan. “You go inside first. I would like to say a few words with Miss Gu.”


    “Mr. Nan.” Gu Hanyan greeted Nan Chuan, to which he replied with a faint nod before turning around


    and walking inside.


    “Miss Gu, I’m afraid what you said earlier was incorrect. Has Qin Muchen admitted that you are his


    girlfriend before? Or did both of you get married before?” Su Ziyue raised her eyes and looked at Gu


    Hanyan. A gleam of natural confidence flickered in her bright and energetic round eyes. “If something is


    yours, it won’t escape your reaches; if it isn’t meant to be yours, you’ll lose it someday even after you


    get it. But of course, all of us know Qin Muchen really well. If that’s something he really wants, he won’t


    wait until over ten years to get it, right?”


    Gu Hanyan, of course, knew Su Ziyue was mocking her by saying that. Her expression changed


    slightly before it quickly returned to normal again. She smiled. “Oh, is that so?”


    “Aren’t you here to see him? Come on in.” Su Ziyue took a step backward, turned around and walked


    toward the dining room. She sounded as if she was showing mercy to Gu Hanyan and was giving her


    the opportunity to see Qin Muchen.


    Gu Hanyan’s hands clenched tightly around her bag. One day, I will snatch Qin Muchen from Su Ziyue.


    Qin Muchen is mine; he used to be, and will always be mine.


    Su Ziyue went into the dining room to take the chicken soup and went upstairs without paying further


    attention to Gu Hanyan. Nan Chuan followed behind Su Ziyue.


    As she reached the entrance, Su Ziyue turned and took a nce at the doorway. As expected, she saw


    Gu Hanyan following her upstairs as well. It must be difficult for her to be so shameless!


    Su Ziyue pushed the door open and entered the bedroom. Coincidently, she saw Qin Muchen, who just


    got out of the bathroom.


    He just had a pair of long pants and his upper body was bared. He looked normal when he saw Su


    Ziyueing in, but a slight change shed through his eyes when he saw Nan Chuan and Gu


    Hanyan standing behind her.


    Su Ziyue turned around immediately and looked behind. She noticed that Gu Hanyan was staring


    attentively at Qin Muchen without blinking her eyes.


    Bang! Su Ziyue mmed the door shut with a loud bang after ring at Gu Hanyan.
