Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 201 How Selfess Is Mu Zhi for Doing That?

Mu Zhi gaped at Lu Jinye in astonishment, then gulped.

She was caught off guard by Lu Jinye’s love confession.

Staring at him solemnly, Mu Zhi could see his eyes gleaming with determination.

In the end, she did not know what to say to him anymore.

She loved Lu Jinye. While Lu Jinye’s gesture was moving for her, apart from being courageous, she had no clue what else to think. In fact, she had no idea what else she could do.

Mu Zhi gradually walked up to Lu Jinye, wrapped her arms around him, tiptoed, and gave Lu Jinye an amorous kiss.

“Thank you.” She said.

Lu Jinye knitted his brows slightly, gazing down at Mu Zhi with incredibly gentle eyes, “Thank you? Is that all?”

“What else could there be?”

“Aren’t you supposed to appreciate me with some actions?”

Lu Jinye curled his lips into a playful smile.

Mu Zhi gave him a coy look, then softly escaped from his embrace and headed into the kitchen. “Fine, what would you like to eat tonight? What about ginger and clam soup to go with some home-cooked dishes?”

Lu Jinye fixed his eyes at Mu Zhi and followed her into the kitchen. “Whatever you want to cook, let me lend you a hand.”

“Nah, work is in a mess for you right now, you should put all of your focus on work.”

Finishing what she had to say, Mu Zhi skipped into the kitchen and busied herself with the cooking preparation. Meanwhile, Lu Jinye plunged himself into work in the study room.

When dinner was served, the two of them sat across from each other by the dining table. Mu Zhi enjoyed the meal with a dazzling smile.
