Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 45

Chapter 45 Someone She Used to Love

Mu Zhi panicked as looked at the notes on the walls.

She did not know how to answer Lu Jinye.

Should she tell the truth?

Or lie?

Mu Zhi clenched her teeth before replying, “I didn’t.”

Lu Jinye arched his eyebrow and stared her down, “Oh? Really?”

He was testing her. The hairs stood up at the back of her neck, but she stubbornly stuck to her statement.

She didn’t write a note. That was the story she was sticking to. She would never admit to having written one.

But Lu Jinye did not let up his stare.

His deep gaze was filled with emotions that Mu Zhi could not fathom. For a moment, she thought that maybe there were something more between them.

If there wasn’t, he would not be concerned with her past relationships.

So, maybe there was something more…

Just as this was running through her head, Lu Jinye smirked. He withdrew his gaze and pointed to a post-it note hanging in a corner.

It was obvious that that one had been there for a while. It was significantly faded from being exposed to the sun. But the words were still legible. Written on it was her name.

And the contents were, ‘Marry Mr. Lu!!!’

The Mr. Lu of her university years could not possibly be Lu Jinye. She had not met him then.

Lu Jinye was aware of that too.
