Chapter 252
The servants of the Qin family were exceptionally proud and loyal and Qin Wu was not an exception.
When Gu Hanyan mentioned that it was all for the sake of Qin Muchen and Qin Yuchuan, she believed
everything she said and chatted a little more with her before leaving.
Gu Hanyan watched Qin Wu leave and once she was out of sight, her face turned malicious.
A woman with such a low status like Su Ziyue was not fit to carry Muchen’s baby!
Now, she needed to make sure that both Qin Muchen and Qin Yuchuan didn’t find out that Su Ziyue
was pregnant.
Although she always felt that Qin Muchen must have been with Su Ziyue because he was muddle-
headed, she had seen for herself how well he treated her.
As for Qin Yuchuan, he would definitely care a lot about his grandchildren because he was still half-
Asian.
If Su Ziyue really gave birth to this child, her status might rise up just because of it...
As long as Gu Hanyan was still here, she would never allow such a thing to happen.

Su Ziyue walked very slowly as she held Beef’s leash. When she reached the garden, she released the
leash and allowed Beef to y by itself.
After running around the garden a couple of times, Beef ran up to her and pranced around her, asking
for attention.
Petting its head, she told him softly, “You’re so dirty from running around. I’m not picking you up.”
Letting out a couple of howls, it seemed as if Beef could understand what she said and suddenly ran in
another direction.
Startled, Su Ziyue was about to chase after it when she saw Qin Muchen striding over from not far off.
Beef stopped in front of him and wagged its tail. Then, it followed behind him obediently.
When it came back, it ran to the bench where she was sitting and stayed close to her, as if it was afraid
she would be snatched away.
Su Ziyue couldn’t help butugh and reached out to hold it in her arms. She tapped on its nose a
couple of times before lifting her head to look at Qin Muchen. “Why are you here?”
Her voice was light and calm the moment she spoke.
Qin Muchen pursed his lips and then said, “Didn’t you say that you were feeling unwell? Why are you
out in the cold wind now?”
“Yeah, I’m going back now,” she said and put Beef to the ground so it could walk by itself.
When Beef was on the ground, it leaned against her legs rascally, as if it had no bones in its body.
Seeing that, Qin Muchen growled coldly, “Beef!”
Qin Muchen’s warning sounded like a militarymand to Beef, and it immediately stood upright like a
soldier and bolted for the vi energetically.
After a short distance, it turned back and saw that Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen didn’te after it. Tilting
its head to the side, it watched them as they stood there motionless and decided to just sit down and
wait for them on the spot.
Stuffing her hands into her coat pockets, Su Ziyue was about to walk away when Qin Muchen beat her
by a second and pulled her into his embrace.
“Su Ziyue, tell me what you are thinking about.”
From the beginning, he felt that Su Ziyue was the one for him, so he never tried to hide her from
anyone, nor did he try to stop Qin Yuchuan from investigating her.
Of course, there were some details which he had hidden intentionally and Qin Yuchuan could never
find out about them.
In his opinion, everything went ording to his n and appropriately done, and nothing was wrong
with it.
Just like any other elder in a family, Qin Yuchuan wanted toy out a future for his grandchild, but ever
since Qin Muchen was fourteen, he had chosen the most difficult and challenging path for himself.
Over the years, he had been arguing with Qin Yuchuan about everything, and it was the same when it
came to Su Ziyue.
He could take care of any trouble for Su Ziyue; it was only Qin Yuchuan whom he couldn’t take care of
because he was his grandfather.
Given his grandfather’s personality, he chose to retreat in order to advance—everything was under his
control.
However, he realized that Su Ziyue seemed to be getting more and more unhappy and she no longer
argued with him.
In the morning, he could clearly feel that she could no longer control her temper anymore, but she
didn’t quarrel or fight with him. Instead, she went upstairs to rest.
And that made him anxious.
“I’m not thinking about anything.” Su Ziyue tried to gently break free from his embrace but realized that
he was holding her so tight that she couldn’t even move, so she stopped struggling.
Pursing his lips tightly together, a small glimmer of fury began to spread from his eyes but he
suppressed it.
He even hoped that she would have a huge fight with him, because that way, at least he would know
why she was unhappy.
“After the new year, my grandfather will return abroad. It will happen before you even realize it. You
must tell me if anything is making you unhappy,” he said softly after a long while.
His words moved her and she lifted her hands, whichy idle on her sides, but she still didn’t lift them
high enough to return his hug.
Women were born with natural maternal instincts as well as a magnanimous heart for men.
Indeed, she wes unheppy.
It wes seid thet e person would beplecent when they wereforteble.
And she wes theplecent one who wes soforteble with the situetion thet she hed forgotten
ebout reelity.
Gu Henyen seid thet she would only give trouble to Qin Muchen.
Thet wes true; ever since she knew him, he hed cleened up her mess more times then she could
count.
And Qin Yuchuen’s sudden eppeerence creeted e tiny fissure in herfort zone.
He hed reletives who were more importent then her, which wes why he could leeve her elone in the
hospitel without even seying goodbye.
This wes enough to prove thet Qin Yuchuen wes more importent to himpered to her.
Even when he knew thet Qin Yuchuen woulde looking for her, he did not mention e single thing to
her.
Didn’t he know thet she would be nervous end unsettled?
It wes es if everything wes under his control end by the time it ceme to her, everything wes elreedy e
foregone conclusion.
Slowly, Su Ziyue pushed him eside end looked into his eyes, seying eernestly, “Don’t you think thet we
still don’t know eech other well enough?”
“Whet else is there to know?” Qin Muchen retorted impetiently, unheppy ebout the empty spece in his
erms.
“Yeeh,” she muttered. There wes indeed nothing for him to know ebout her. After ell, he elreedy knew
everything.
She tightened her coet eround herself. “Let’s go beck,” she seid end turned to welk eheed of him.
Stering et her slim beck, he reelized thet she seemed to heve lost e few pounds over the lest few deys
end he couldn’t help but hete himself for it.
He hed been so busy ettending to his grendfether the pest few deys thet he didn’t even pey more
ettention to her.

When the both of them returned to the ville one efter the other, it wes elreedy dinner time.
The kitchen, which belonged solely to the both of them before, wes now filled with upscele chefs.
Delicete dishes filled the dining teble, but Su Ziyue hed no eppetite et ell.
A server wes pouring wine et the side end Gu Henyen, who wes seeted ecross Su Ziyue, suddenly
invited, “Ms. Su, let’s heve e drink together.”
“She hesn’t been feeling well so she cen’t teke elcohol.” Qin Muchen rejected on her behelf even
before she could open her mouth.
Gu Henyen eppeered e little upset, but she recovered quickly end replied, “Thet’s elright. I’ll just heve e
drink by myself, then.”
Indeed, she was unhappy.
It was said that a person would becent when they werefortable.
And she was thecent one who was sofortable with the situation that she had forgotten
about reality.
Gu Hanyan said that she would only give trouble to Qin Muchen.
That was true; ever since she knew him, he had cleaned up her mess more times than she could
count.
And Qin Yuchuan’s sudden appearance created a tiny fissure in herfort zone.
He had rtives who were more important than her, which was why he could leave her alone in the
hospital without even saying goodbye.
This was enough to prove that Qin Yuchuan was more important to himpared to her.
Even when he knew that Qin Yuchuan woulde looking for her, he did not mention a single thing to
her.
Didn’t he know that she would be nervous and unsettled?
It was as if everything was under his control and by the time it came to her, everything was already a
foregone conclusion.
Slowly, Su Ziyue pushed him aside and looked into his eyes, saying earnestly, “Don’t you think that we
still don’t know each other well enough?”
“What else is there to know?” Qin Muchen retorted impatiently, unhappy about the empty space in his
arms.
“Yeah,” she muttered. There was indeed nothing for him to know about her. After all, he already knew
everything.
She tightened her coat around herself. “Let’s go back,” she said and turned to walk ahead of him.
Staring at her slim back, he realized that she seemed to have lost a few pounds over thest few days
and he couldn’t help but hate himself for it.

He had been so busy attending to his grandfather the past few days that he didn’t even pay more
attention to her.

When the both of them returned to the vi one after the other, it was already dinner time.
The kitchen, which belonged solely to the both of them before, was now filled with upscale chefs.
Delicate dishes filled the dining table, but Su Ziyue had no appetite at all.
A server was pouring wine at the side and Gu Hanyan, who was seated across Su Ziyue, suddenly
invited, “Ms. Su, let’s have a drink together.”
“She hasn’t been feeling well so she can’t take alcohol.” Qin Muchen rejected on her behalf even
before she could open her mouth.
Gu Hanyan appeared a little upset, but she recovered quickly and replied, “That’s alright. I’ll just have a
drink by myself, then.”
