Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce

Chapter 569 The Sobering Fall of the Cannon Fodder Junior Schoolgirl (9)

After Mu Zhou explained her relationship with Jiang Chenbai, everyone finally understood.

It turned out to be the case.

Then everyone started asking her about her marriage, wondering why there was no news about it.

"We've only registered our marriage; we haven't held a wedding banquet yet. We were planning to tell everyone when we had the banquet."

She had a happy smile on her face.

Very dazzling.

Jiang Chenbai's face darkened.

The gentleness and nonchalance she feigned in front of Mu Zhou vanished, leaving only a harsh and vicious aura.

Mu Zhou seemed to have absolutely no desire to have anything to do with him.

His flirting these past few days has been a joke.

Even during the meeting, his face still looked extremely grim.

The meeting lasted until 9 p.m.

As Jiang Chenbai left Mu Zhou's company, he stopped and looked at Mu Zhou:

"It's too late, let me take you home."

Mu Zhou refused while putting on her scarf:

"Need not……"

Before he could finish speaking, a man was standing at the door.

He stood calmly at the door.

"Xu Ran?"

Mu Zhou never expected him to come here.

Her first thought was whether anyone else had seen it.

Xu Ran is a major client of the company, and many people know him.

Fortunately, most of his colleagues had already left by then, and Mu Zhou was finally able to relax.

Xu Ran watched the changes in her expression, and his brows gradually furrowed.

Then he saw Jiang Chenbai forcefully blocking Mu Zhou's path.

The moment the two men's eyes met, a strange spark seemed to fly between them.

They nodded to each other as a greeting.

Mu Zhou acted as if she hadn't seen anything, and went to Xu Ran's side, taking his arm:

"You're here."

She raised her head slightly, looking at him pleadingly, hoping he wouldn't reject her.

Xu Ran glanced at Jiang Chenbai without making a sound, then reached out and affectionately touched her scarf.

"Would you like a midnight snack?"

"it is good."

Xu Ran lifted her eyelids and looked at Jiang Chenbai on the steps, saying:

"Let's go first."

Then, under Jiang Chenbai's watchful gaze, the two left.

In the car, Mu Zhou explained:

"I'm sorry, Jiang Chenbai is too domineering. He always makes me feel suffocated, so when I saw you, I couldn't help but want to leave with you. Next time, next time I will definitely..."

Mu Zhou was afraid that he would think that he couldn't do anything, so he hurriedly explained.

But Xu Ran interrupted her.

"no need."

Xu Ran gripped the steering wheel slightly harder, her jawline taut.

"From now on, you don't need to do this anymore, and you don't need to apologize to me."

Mu Zhou looked at him blankly.

"But……"

Wasn't his marriage just a ploy to get me closer to Jiang Chenbai and prevent Jiang Chenbai and Lin Yumo's relationship from going too smoothly?

Faced with Mu Zhou's innocent question, Xu Ran felt even more guilty.

"It was my mistake to drag you into marriage; it's not fair to you."

Mu Zhou was clearly afraid of Jiang Chenbai, but she forced herself to do it for his sake.

Xu Ran could no longer convince himself, and fell silent after he finished speaking.

Mu Zhou bit her lip, her eyes gradually reddening as she looked at him.

I don't know whether I'm touched or feel guilty.

Xu Ran dared not look anymore.

Seeing Xu Ran awkwardly look away, Mu Zhou sneered inwardly.

So he knew all along.

He took advantage of the original owner's affection for him to satisfy his own desire for revenge.

The reason he dared to propose marriage back then was because he knew the original owner liked him and wouldn't refuse, right?

He was seized by a sudden urge for revenge and took advantage of the original owner's affection.

Once his anger subsided, he gave the person money to send them away.

It seems like things are even now.

They used it without any psychological burden.

That won't do.

The car stopped at a restaurant near the residential area that was open all night.

This place is famous for its late-night snacks, and it's always crowded at night.

The two found a place to sit down. After a moment of contemplation, Xu Ran said to Mu Zhou:

“Our marriage was a mistake from the start, and I don’t want to continue. Let’s get a divorce. It’s all my fault. I will compensate you, and you can tell me whatever you want.”

After saying all these things in one breath, Xu Ran felt much better.

He wanted to end this marriage, which was causing him anxiety and sleepless nights, as soon as possible.

He admitted that ever since Mu Zhou insisted on attending Lin Yumo's birthday party after having a high fever, he found it difficult to treat Mu Zhou with the same indifference as before.

He didn't like this change in himself.

Therefore, the best course of action right now is to sever this relationship as soon as possible.

Mu Zhou was not surprised by this.

These past few days, Xu Ran's gaze towards her has always been complex and obscure.

She guessed he was about to lose control.

However, she doesn't want a divorce yet, so that her upcoming tasks will be easier.

As for when to get a divorce, that's up to her.

So when Xu Ran proposed divorce, she was stunned for a moment.

Then she lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling, trying hard to hold back her tears.

A few seconds later, she concealed her emotions and said to Xu Ran:

"Could you wait a little longer? Today at the company, in order to distance myself from Jiang Chenbai, I told my colleagues about my marriage. Although they didn't know it was you, the fact that we're getting a divorce so soon... I..."

She bit her lip, her voice soft and pitiful:

"Wait another six months... oh no, three months, please wait another three months, okay?"

Xu Ran stared at her silently.

Her unadorned face was full of pitiful charm.

Her eyes were clearly filled with tears, but she tried hard to blink them away, pretending not to care.

In the end, he couldn't bring himself to say anything heartless.

"Okay, let me know when you think is a good time."

His voice was inexplicably hoarse.

Mu Zhou stood nervously in front of the mirror in the fitting room.

This was the first time she had ever worn such a formal dress.

It was a black, shiny, strapless princess dress that her colleague picked out for her.

The dress has a fitted waist and a slightly trailing hem; the style is simple yet exudes a cool and sexy vibe.

Soon, the other colleagues had also chosen their dresses.

They came to choose dresses because the client was holding a thank-you party tonight.

The manager felt it was a rare opportunity to broaden everyone's horizons.

Perhaps we can even meet more people and thus improve the group's performance.

So I notified everyone in the group that they had to participate and that no one could ask for leave.

They also reimbursed the cost of the dress.

So the group went to the shop.

After getting ready, Mu Zhou and the others arrived at the venue.

Upon arriving at the destination, Mu Zhou saw Jiang Chenbai surrounded by a crowd of people from afar.

And Lin Yumo, who was gazing at him from afar.

Mu Zhou withdrew his gaze, then glanced almost imperceptibly at a window on the second floor.

The entire venue was like an ancient castle, both magnificent and classic.

The second floor is a separate space with only a few windows.

The windows are specially designed so that you can't see inside at all.

But Mu Zhou knew that one could see clearly out from inside.

At that moment, a sharp gaze fell directly on her through the window.

The private rooms on the second floor are not open to the public at this time.

Shen Linshu sat on the sofa with his legs naturally crossed.

The room was very warm, and he was dressed in very thin clothes.

He wasn't even wearing a suit jacket, just a black shirt.

He rested his forehead on one hand, looking utterly bored, his gaze unfocused.

Such occasions are always extremely boring, and he doesn't even want to show up.

Just as they were about to leave, they spotted Mu Zhou, who had just entered the venue, hidden in the crowd.
