Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 102 Are You Desperate For Man or Money

After shower!

Mu Zhi’s hair was half-dried, spontaneously draped over her breast, hardly covering her fair, silky skin, giving a captivating demeanor.

Xiao Qingqing burst into the hotel room infuriated. Seeing Mu Zhi in the current state made her clench her fists, fuming in burning fury.

She had always kept an obsequious character before Lu Jinye, but in this instance, she was resisting herself from charging at Mu Zhi to slap her across the face.

She kept her fists clenched tightly for a very long time, profusely telling herself to stay calm before she managed to steady herself.

With a faint smile, she said, “Jinye, what are you doing with Miss Mu?”

Lu Jinye looked at Xiao Qingqing, who had shown up uninvited by the door, and then turned to Mu Zhi, who was standing behind him before he realized that Xiao Qingqing might have misunderstood.

He explained, “Mu Zhi and I have a peaceful divorce, but the incident has a large impact on her so I thought I’d go and check on her. I arrived just as she was running away from the reporters.”

He did not elaborate further. It should fall in place for Xiao Qingqing that he later helped Mu Zhi escape and hid in the hotel.

Lu Jinye clarified himself, but it was not satisfying for Xiao Qingqing.

But since he had given a solid justification, it would be insensible for Xiao Qingqing to pursue further.

Meanwhile, Mu Zhi was standing still awkwardly.

She did not intend to interfere with Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing’s relationship.

Besides, she was clear that after the divorce, regardless of Xiao Qingqing’s likability, she would never seduce Lu Jinye.

But with the way things unfolded… The situation was a little tricky to defuse.

“Umm, I was overly excited when I ate earlier, so I got a poached pork slice on myself.”

Mu Zhi awkwardly explained, “Umm, Mr. Lu, thank you for keeping me here. You may go, I need my rest too.”

She was subtly chasing them away, hoping to clear Xiao Qingqing’s misunderstanding.
