Chapter 41: Mu Yuchen, Let’s Get Married?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The clouds in the morning sky were nowhere to be seen. Sunshine shone down and a cool breeze passed by. A black car slowly ambled up the cement road and soon stopped by the roadside.

The car door opened and a prestigious-looking man alighted from the passenger seat. He wore a silver suit with a long, black coat.

He took a glance at the warm sun in the sky and then sat down on a bench by the road.

“Get me the documents on South River. I’ll wait for here for you to deliver the gift.”

“Yes, Master!”

Ah Mo swiftly brought Mu Yuchen the documents from his briefcase. Then, he picked the gift up and went towards the back door of West Park.

They still had to go back to the office after this.

As he just crossed the road, the door suddenly opened from the inside.

“Director Xi!” Ah Mo was shocked.

The sudden voice startled Xi Xiaye as well. She raised her head and saw Ah Mo standing in front of her. After a short moment of being absent-minded, she acknowledged him, “Hello!”

“Director Xi, what happened? Why do you look so pale?”

Xi Xuaye shook her head. As she wanted to just walk past without saying anything, a thought went through her murky mind. She looked at Ah Mo and asked, “Is Mu Yuchen here as well?”

Surprised, he nodded after a while then he turned around and looked in a certain direction. Xi Xiaye looked where he was facing and saw Mu Yuchen sitting on the bench, reading some documents.

The golden sun added a tint of tenderness around him. At that moment, he looked extremely distant and unreal.

Xi Xiaye was pressing her painful wound tightly under her windbreaker as she crossed the road without any hesitation.

She hoped that she could find someone who could help to protect this fragile pride of hers and to bring her away safely before she fell.

Mu Yuchen noticed a faint shadow slowly approaching him and blocking the sunlight that fell on his documents. The sound of footsteps was getting closer, so he raised his head a little and saw a pair of feet coming closer.

Xi Xiaye halted several steps before Mu Yuchen as her hand tightened around her wounded arm slightly. Her eyes stared intently at him...

A faint memory went through her mind as she recalled what he had said to her the other day.

If you don’t mind, marry me. Be my wife. Be the head lady of Glory World. That way, you should be able to come out ahead.

“Sign it. As long as you sign this, we’ll compensate you accordingly...”

“Your mother has already told him about it and he’s accepted it.

“Xinyi, will you marry me?”

“Xiaye, Master Qi is a special guest of the Xi family. Take Master Qi out for a walk,”

“I’m just telling the truth. Isn’t it all because of her that our family has become like this today?”

The scenes replayed in her mind like a movie reel. She felt suffocated and finally closed her tired eyes. Inhaling a deep breath, she then opened her eyes again and looked at Mu Yuchen who was still focused on the documents.

She gave it some thought before saying in her exhausted voice, “Mu Yuchen, let’s get married?”

Mu Yuchen was surprised when he heard her hoarse voice. He did not look at her immediately, but his hands that were holding onto the documents clenched slightly.

Xi Xiaye was looking at him firmly, noticing that his already dark eyes slowly turned darker. Her face became paler as she suppressed the ache in her chest and the excruciating pain on her shoulder as she put on a bitter smile and was about to leave.

Suddenly, the silent Mu Yuchen took his eyes off the documents and gazed at her. Closing the documents, he walked towards her and passed them to her.

Xi Xiaye was confused. She turned around and asked him as she held the documents in her hands. “Where are you going?”

Mu Yuchen looked at the setting sun and his deep voice sounded warm. “Let’s go. The civil affairs bureau is closing soon.”

Xi Xiaye’s heart stopped when she heard him. She was only able to comprehend what he said after a while.

She felt a warmth blossom in her chest as she looked at him and found herself at a loss for words. Suddenly, she felt a sense of relief from all the pain she experienced. However, she might not be able to hold up long enough for them to reach the civil affairs bureau in time.

Her vision blacked out and she almost hit the ground. It was at that moment that Mu Yuchen felt something odd was brewing. He threw a sharp glance at Xi Xiaye and instantly noticed that something was not right with her.

Xi Xiaye, who had been holding up with just her will alone, was collapsing.

Mu Yuchen held onto her limp body and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”

Xi Xiaye let go of her hand that was pressing her wound. Looking at Mu Yuchen, her bloody hand clutched his collar as her voice sounded frail and hoarse. Instinctively, her eyes started to tear up a little and she blinked in order to focus on his eyes.

“Remember... what you said... I’ll marry you. Right now... marry... right now...”

She uttered those words before being engulfed by the dark. Finally, unable to endure it anymore, she passed out.
