Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 158 Mr Lu, You Can Marry Whoever You Wants!

After making a deal with Xiao Qingqing, Lu Jinye burst out of the villa. He showed no sign of wanting to stay.

Lu Jinye’s Public Relations Department was a high performing team. In the blink of an eye, they managed to wipe off most news that was floating in the market. They also amended the reputation damages that could not be undone in the most proficient way possible.

At the same time, news of Xiao Qingqing and Lu Jinye’s marriage took City A by storm.

Xiao Qingqing announced that the post earlier was just the result of a quibble between the couple. Lu Jinye released a statement that was consistent with Xiao Qingqing’s.

…

Fast forward, although Mu Zhi rejected Jian Xiaoning’s suggestion to return to the country, there was a voice inside her head that urged her to search for the latest update regarding Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing.

However, the search results appeared to have gone through a filter. Every trace of Xiao Qingqing’s rumor had vanished into the algorithm, including her scandals from the early years of her career.

Mu Zhi was a little confused. Apart from Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing’s various intimate interactions in public events, she could not find anything else on him. Meanwhile, the clash between Lu Junnian and Lu Jinye’s big days were merely dubiously covered by the media.

Holding the phone in her hand, Mu Zhi continued to vigorously search for news about Lu Jinye and Xiao Thus, she sensibly forced herself to set her phone aside.

But it had barely been five seconds when the phone was put down before it started ringing. Mu Zhi promptly leaned towards it and realized that the call came from Lu Jinye’s number.

Umm…

She hesitated, and ultimately picked up the phone.

It wasn’t until Mu Zhi said the word ‘hello’ when she realized that she was subconsciously eager for the call.

However, instead of Lu Jinye’s voice, she could only hear a crisp sound of a laugh.

“Hello, Miss Mu Zhi, how are you? Xiao Qingqing here.”
