Chapter 199 An Honorable Love!

Mu Zhi glanced at the time. When she was preparing to leave the bed, Lu Jinye reached out to hold her hand.

“Where are you going?”

Mu Zhi rolled her eyes at u Jinye, “This dating thing isn’t really working out. I need to pick up Mu Xiaomu from school.”

Shuffling towards Mu Zhi, Lu Jinye did not stop her from leaving. He brought Mu Zhi into his embrace and breathed into her ear, “I think this dating thing works out perfectly. We should do it every day.”

“…”

Mu Zhi was left with no words.

Once a day?!

She had the intention to refuse him earlier…

But unfortunately, Lu Jinye knew her too well. Her body was not able to resist what was coming at her.

Mu Zhi then glared at him in the end and hopped off the bed, disregarding Lu Jinye completely. She headed into the bathroom, took a shower before starting to dress up. “Xiaomu is finishing class soon, I need to fetch her.”

Lu Jinye followed suit. He looked stunning as always after getting dressed. “I’m coming with you.”

His phone went off as soon as he finished those words.

Lu Jinye was buried in endless work lately. Mu Zhi was aware of it. She glanced at the phone and said to him, “You should get to work first. If you could bring it home, I can bring Xiaomu home and the three of us can have a meal together.”

Mu Zhi grabbed her coat and prepared to leave right after.

But before she could step out of the door, her phone suddenly went off.

Mu Zhi took a look at the caller’s name, answered it, and said, “How is it, Xiaoning?”
