Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 74 Egregious Yet Real

Mu Zhi woke up to a vibrant morning sunray. She jumped to her seat and realized that Lu Jinye had disappeared.

Sitting on the bedside table was fresh, new clothes.

Mu Zhi held them against herself and they were just the right size. She promptly changed into them and dashed into the bathroom to wash up.

Afterward, she left Lu Jinye’s villa spontaneously, preparing to set off to work.

However, she had just stepped into the yard after closing the door when she noticed a stealthy figure flash before her eyes. Before she could come to her senses, the person splashed a pot of green, slimy liquid at her face.

She was left in despair.

Hurriedly mopping the green something off her face, she rebuked, “Are you out of your mind?!”

“How do you like it? If you keep pushing it, it won’t be vegetable juice next time!”

Mu Zhi scowled as she looked at Xia Shaner, who was behaving arrogantly, as though standing on the moral high ground. It was difficult to comprehend.

“What have I done?”

“What have you done? Aren’t you clear with what you’ve done?”

Xia Shaner scoffed, “After hooking up with Lu Junnian, how do you have the audacity to stay at Jinye’s villa?”

Mu Zhi stared at Xia Shaner and felt she was hilarious.

“Me hooking up with Lu Junnian? Even if it’s true, Miss Xia Shaner, who are you to judge me? May I know what’s your relationship is with Jinye? Oh… I remember you are just one of the nobodies who Jinye abandoned.”

Mu Zhi intentionally took on an enigmatic tone to jeer at her.

Xia Shaner could feel her blood boiling in anger. She could only stomp on the ground.

“So what?!”

Struggling to articulate an argument, that was all Xia Shaner could say.
