Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 49 The Last Night

Lu Jinye could not help but peer at the Volkswagen Polo with scrunched brows. The few scratch marks and the dull color of the car suggested that it was not brand new.

As he was sizing up the car, Mu Zhi, who was in the house, noticed Lu Jinye’s return. She hurriedly walked out, stood by the door, and greeted obsequiously, “Honey, you’re home.”

Lu Jinye turned around and found Mu Zhi in a white dress shirt, indicating that she had just returned home.

“Did you hire a maid?”

Lu Jinye asked with a frown.

“Nope.”

Mu Zhi kept her jolly expression, as usual.

Besides, after uttering the word, she approached the yellow Volkswagen Polo smugly and said, “Honey, what do you think of my car?”

With that, Lu Jinye’s scowl deepened, “So that’s your car?”

Mu Zhi nodded.

Lu Jinye then stared at Mu Zhi, “Why would you buy a car like this? Don’t we have enough cars at your disposal?”

“Pick up.”

Lu Jinye pointed at the general direction of the fleet of luxurious cars. Mu Zhi barely took a glance before turning away. She must admit that she was touched.

Lu Jinye was considered a great husband. At the end of their marriage, not only did he leave a house for her, but he also offered a car. That alone was a testimony of a great husband.

Unfortunately, he did not belong to her.

She was thankful to Lu Jinye for the past years. Lu Jinye provided a haven for her, taking her under his wings so she could enjoy a few years of peace.

But, it was time for him to go.
