MY LOVING MARRIAGE - Season 20 Episode 53

The night was getting late. Su Chen was worried about Ji Zitong at home, so he had to get up and go home early.

When he saw Su Chen get up, Mu Yuchen slowly got up as well—

“Wait a moment. You drank quite a lot. It’s not safe to drive on a rainy day. I’ll get Xiaye to send you home.”

Mu Yuchen did not wait for Su Chen’s reply as he walked towards the pantry.

‘Knock, knock’

Mu Yuchen still knocked on the door politely before opening the pantry door. As expected, the three women inside seemed to be chatting happily.

“Excuse me, sorry!”

“What’s wrong?”

Xi Xiaye looked at her husband who had suddenly appeared.

“Send Su Chen back. It’s not safe to drive at this time. He even drank quite a lot of wine. Remember to put on your coat. It’s very cold outside.”

Mu Yuchen looked at Xi Xiaye as he instructed her.

Xi Xiaye then nodded and quickly got up. She turned around to tell Dongfang Liuyun and Qin Su, “Well I’ll send Su Chen home. You guys chat for a bit first. The expressway on the southeast main road has opened. It’s less than an hour to and fro, I’ll be quick.”

Dongfang Liuyun and Qin Su nodded happily.

Xi Xiaye then got up and walked out.

Mu Yuchen had drunk quite a lot tonight, so it was not convenient for him to drive, so he could only let Xi Xiaye do it for him.

“Be careful too, it’s raining heavily. Your phone is out of battery. Take my phone with you. Don’t call your son so late. You’ll see them tomorrow morning.”

Mu Yuchen followed Xi Xiaye out as he handed her the car keys. He even gave her his large windbreaker.

Xi Xiaye quickly took it. “Got it. Don’t worry. I promise to send him to Ji Zitong’s place safely. You can go back now. I’ll be back soon.”

She realized that this man seemed to be getting more and more naggy. Every time she went out, she would hear him nag for a while. It was very different from his usual reserved manner in the company, those employees probably could not believe that their Chairman Mu was such a person at home!

Xi Xiaye suddenly smiled, then she walked towards the door.

…

After Su Chen left, Zhou Zimo chatted with Qi Lei for a while, then he got up to go back. Qin Su still had to go back to the Qin residence tonight, so Zhou Zimo still had to send her back.

Qi Lei and the others’ Grand Lake Villa area was very close to Maple Residence, so it did not matter if they were late. However, when they saw Zhou Zimo leave, they did not want Mu Yuchen to send them off one by one, so they left too.

Mu Yuchen sent Zhou Zimo and Qin Su out of the door.

It was still chilly outside, so Qin Su felt extremely cold.

“Zimo is a person worth cherishing. Qin Su, I hope you two can be happy.”

While Zhou Zimo walked over to talk to Qi Lei, Mu Yuchen said to Qin Su in a low voice, “I admit that I wanted to set the two of you up back then.”

Qin Su was silent for a moment before replying, “I know. Thank you. Now that I’m married to him, of course I’ll treat him well. I hope that I can be like all of you and have a relationship that goes with the flow. Do you think he’ll give me such a relationship?”

Qin Su smiled calmly. Even though she asked, she did not seem to care too much about the answer. Before Mu Yuchen could answer, she had already taken two steps forward, opened the driver’s seat door, and sat in the car.

Mu Yuchen thought about it for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Zhou Zimo. There was a smile on his handsome face, and that smile was naturally meaningful.

The two cars drove forward one after the other in the storm.

There were not many cars on the road, especially on such a cold rainy night.

“They’re my good friends, you got along with them just fine, right?”

Zhou Zimo suddenly asked as he looked at Qin Su who was focused on driving.

“Fortunately, Xiaye and Liuyun’s personalities are pretty straightforward and they aren’t petty. In time, we’ll get to know each other more and we’ll naturally become good friends.”

Qin Su admired Xi Xiaye and Dongfang Liuyun.

“I was worried that you won’t have many friends here. They’re all pretty good people. I won’t worry if you’re with them. You can come visit them often in the future.”

Qin Su rarely stayed in City Z, so she did not have many friends here. Zhou Zimo naturally wanted to help her find a few more friends to talk to. Xi Xiaye and Dongfang Liuyun were pretty good.

Qin Su turned on the music player. The deep and low singing voice sounded very clear and natural in this narrow space.

“I understand how you feel about me. Actually, you don’t have to be so accommodating with me. You are Zhou Zimo, you are you. Since we’re married now, I don’t think too much about it. I just know that you’re going to be with me, Qin Su, for the rest of your life. I’m an indifferent and uninteresting person. I’m not as gentle as you expect me to be. I have a lot of flaws as well. The further I go, the more flaws I’ll expose…”

“I have a lot of flaws as well. Before I found you, my mother kept whispering in my ear that marriage is mostly about two people getting used to each other and transitioning into family. Do you think…”

“I know, I think so too. When I agreed to your proposal, I actually knew the inevitability of my answer. It’s not that I haven’t had a chance to step into marriage after all these years. It’s just that every time I struggle, there’s a little more unwillingness. My ideal marriage is a union that’s because of love.”

“Isn’t our current marriage because of love? There’s no entanglement of interests, and there’s no farsightedness of compromise. My feelings for you aren’t something that happened in a day or two. Your feelings for me…”

“I admire you too. I know that you might not be satisfied with this answer, but since you’ve become my husband, of course I’ll treat you wholeheartedly.” Qin Su said.

“From your tone, it sounds like you’re carrying out a mission. Do you feel wronged marrying me?” Zhou Zimo said somewhat helplessly.

Qin Su gave him a sideways glance. “Do you feel wronged marrying me then?”

“Of course not.” Zhou Zimo replied.

“I won’t marry someone I don’t like, Zhou Zimo.”

Qin Su thought for a moment before saying this. Then, she increased the speed of the car—

“I hope that we can have a relationship that goes with the flow. There won’t be any sudden feelings of burden, guilt, and self-blame. There will only be a subtle delay of feelings deepening. Can you give me that?”

Zhou Zimo thought for a long time before he finally understood what she meant. He could not help but be stunned for a moment before he narrowed his eyes and looked at her—

“You mean, you do like me a little too?”

“You are a very outstanding person to begin with. It’s not very strange for me to like you.”

Qin Su could not be bothered to be pretentious.
