Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 187 Belly-ache

Lu Jinye understood Mu Zhi’s concerns. He gently placed both hands on her shoulders, stared into her eyes fixedly, and said, “Not only do I want to give Xiaomu a home, but I also want to give you a home too.”

Mu Zhi looked at Lu Jinye.

It was rare for him to express his feelings. She could not sense anything odd from his facial expression.

She wouldn’t notice it even if a man like him tried to deceive her.

Thus, Mu Zhi turned her face away.

She drew a quiet, deep breath, turned around, and walked towards the window, opening it to air the room. She desperately needed a breath of fresh air.

Lu Jinye watched her for a long while before slowly headed towards her, “What are your worries?”

Before Mu Zhi could respond, Lu Jinye’s phone went off.

He lowered his head to glance at the screen. It was from Master Lu. So, he promptly answered it.

The butler came from the phone, “Master wishes to see you, he’s just been discharged from the hospital.”

Lu Jinye looked at Mu Zhi reluctantly, then responded, “Got it, I’m on my way.”

After hanging up the call, he came next to Mu Zhi, “I need to visit master Lu, can you please wait for me?”

Mu Zhi raised her head to gaze at him. She was hesitant but ultimately nodded at him.

Lu Jinye embraced her before leaving.
