My Secretary is a Little Sweet

Chapter 573: Failure

Mu Qing chuckled, leading her along. “Why is she not a good person?”

“She...”

Zhao Anan could not continue after uttering that one word.

She stalked her for two days in a row but had just denied that. She would expose herself if she told him what she had seen.

“She is a foxy bitch!”

Mu Qing smiled brightly, “What makes you say so? Is she seducing someone else?”

Zhao Anan’s eyes were widened. “How do you know?”

Mu Qing crickled his eyes. “She told me that she would not eat lunch with me today because she is on a date with a good looking guy. My turn is tomorrow.”

“What?!” Zhao Anan gasped!

How could this woman be so shameless?

She took turns in eating meals with men!

So Mu Qing knew about the ridiculous behavior of this woman and was still going ahead with her?!

Zhao Anan got furious and ordered. “You must not eat with her!”

“Sure, if you eat with me, I won’t go even if a fairy asks me to.” Mu Qing was very happy, as he caressed her face.

“We have broken up. Why should I eat with you?!”

“Oh, yes, we have broken up. Then I will eat with that foxy bitch. Not sure if I will be able to compete with that young guy at my age.”

Zhao Anan got annoyed and bit his chest fiercely.

Mu Qing unbuttoned his shirt, exposing his chest where rows of clear toothprints were seen, looking very suggestive.

“Look at what you have done! You are so ruthless. Should I punish you?”

“Stop switching the topic! I told you – don’t go and eat with that woman, don’t marry her! Marry someone who is nice and who can take care of you...” Zhao Anan said in a low voice.

Mu Qing placed his fingers on her chin and forced her to look at him whilst speaking through gritted teeth. “I never knew that you are so broad-minded that you can push me towards another woman. Are you so worried about which kind of wife I am marrying? Do you not care about me at all?”

Zhao Anan felt tears coming to the edge of her eyes. “I don’t know how much time I have and I can’t have babies. Your family don’t like me either. So, I don’t want to marry you.”

“Stop talking nonsense!” Mu Qing felt his eyes go red as he bellowed. “You have a lot of time and you are healthy.”

“I am not talking nonsense, the doctor said that...”

Mu Qing interrupted Zhao Anan. “Which doctor? I am the best doctor and I am telling you that you will be able to live upto 100 years. You will!”

Normally, when one party got furious, the other would turn down her or his temper. That was what happened between Zhao Anan and Mu Qing as well. The more gentle Mu Qing was to her, the more unruly she would become.

But if Mu Qing truly got furious, she would turn docile and stop arguing with him, otherwise Mu Qing would spank her hard.

“Stop being stubborn, Anan. You are 28 years old. Are you planning to marry me at 38?” Mu Qing softened his voice, seeing that she did not respond to him. Then he put his head against hers, tiredly.

Zhao Anan still did not talk. She thought that she would not live for more than ten years. But Mu Qing would surely get angry, if she said those words.

“Oh! Do you think that you won’t live to see your 38th year, also?” Mu Qing seemed to have seen through her.

He said softly, “I can promise that you will definitely live for many years, and I can help you do that, not the top-notch experts in Germany!”

“Are you sure that you won’t marry me?” Mu Qing lowered his head and looked straight into Zhao Anan’s eyes.

He was trying his best for the very last time.

If he was able to move Zhao Anan’s heart and get her to agree to marry him, then Shangguan Ning’s plan could be cancelled and Zhao Anan would not need to suffer any more.

If he failed, then he would definitely and firmly carry out Shangguan Ning’s plan until he managed to convince her.

Seeing Mu Qing’s eyes, Zhao Anan said against her will, “No. You can marry someone else!”

Mu Qing got so annoyed that he let out a sneer, “I am very stupid, ain’t I? I have asked you hundreds of times and I still believe that the answer will be the opposite!”

He released Zhao Anan, and went to sit down on his chair. He said calmly, “Alright, you can leave now. Don’t come and beg me to marry you in a couple of days.”

It seemed that Shangguan Ning was right. Zhao Anan needed to be cornered.

He had not wanted to push her or play tricks on her, because that seemed unfair to Zhao Anan.

But was it fair when Zhao Anan treated him in this way?

When Jing Yichen wanted to marry Shangguan Ning back then, he had been really dominating. He did not care about Shangguan Ning’s rebellion and did not even care about her having a fever but took her straight to the Civil Affairs Office for the registration.

If he had been less considerate, he and Zhao Anan would not have ended up being stuck in the present situation.

Luckily, it was not too late.

He was going to break the vows about not forcing her. Vows were not important. Marrying her was what mattered above everything else.

Nothing was going to stop him anymore.

He was going to ask Shangguan Ning what he needed to do. He had, as a matter of fact, not cared much about the plan up till now. Nor had he thought it over carefully. But now, he was going to pay attention. He must not allow the plan to fail just because of him.

Zhao Anan was startled by Mu Qing’s cold tone.

She was not worried if Mu Qing got furious. Spanking her was a minor thing as well. But when he was calm, it meant that he was really pissed.

Mu Qing had a similar personality as she did. They were not able to conceal their emotions, be it delight or annoyance.

He was not pretending to be cold at this moment, either.

She felt chill attacking her heart, but still walked out of the office without saying anything else.

The moment she walked out of the office, she bumped into Zheng Jing.

Zhao Anan was in a bad mood, so she ignored him and walked past as if he didn’t exist.

Zheng Jing shook his head helplessly, gestured to Mu Qing and caught up with Zhao Anan. He said with a smile, “Anan, what a coincidence! We meet again. Are you here to see Mu Qing?”

Zhao Anan did not feel weird to have run into Zheng Jing twice in a row. Zheng Jing was a regular visitor at the hospital as well.

But what was weird was that he was following her!
