Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 83 The Only Chance to Grow Closer to Them

It was near midnight during the hottest part of summer. The heavens were too stingy to even grant them a breeze.

There was a natural lake nearby that was part of the estate. That was the only reason why the surrounding air was cooler and moist.

However, as she was walking towards Liang Yunzhan, Mu Zhi could not help but still feel frustrated.

Whenever she thought about what Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing may have done earlier, she became frustrated.

She walked up to Lu Jinye and Liang Yunzhan, made sure her voice was calmer before saying, “Yunzhan, Xiaomu may be a little tired. Xiaoning wants to bring her home. We’ll be leaving soon.”

Mu Zhi smiled softly.

Liang Yunzhan looked at his watch and urged them to stay, “It’s getting late. This place becomes a great natural resort at night. How about staying for a night? Tomorrow, I’ll send Xiaomu and Jieyi to school.”

Mu Zhi hesitate before declining, “We won’t be staying. We’ll be leaving now.”

Prior to this, there had been not a hint of wind, but after Mu Zhi spoke, there was a gust of wind.

Liang Yunzhan smiled, “Look, even the heavens won’t let you leave. It’s windy.”

Mu Zhi looked up at the sky helplessly and quickly said, “It’s okay. It’s just a breeze. We’ll be fine.”

She then turned to call Xiaomu and Jian Xiaoning.

Xiaomu wasn’t too far away, barely a dozen steps away from where Mu Zhi was. But before she had taken a few steps, it began to rain.

By the time Mu Zhi had gotten to Xiaomu and was tugging her, the heavens opened up.

The owner sent umbrellas out to everyone. The fireworks went out and everyone had an umbrella. Liang Yunzhan then walked towards Mu Zhi again.

He had a mischievous smile on his face. “Looks like the gods know I would like you to stay and lent a hand. This road will be particularly difficult to maneuver after the rain. Why don’t you just stay the night and leave tomorrow?”

Mu Zhi hesitated.
