Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 216 It Was Not the Normal Spicy, It Was Goddamn Spicy!

Mu Zhi glanced at Lu Jinye surprisedly. However, Lu Jinye did not seem to be agitated at all. It was as if this matter did not bother him as much as it did to Mu Zhi.

Lu Jinye acknowledged Linda, who was at the other end of the phone, “I see.”

“Mr. Chairman, the directors are waiting for you to start the meeting.”

Linda continued with a hint of reluctance. She was hemming and hawing whether she should speak up or not.

After a while, Lu Jinye replied, “I’ll be there in a while.”

When he had cut off the phone call, Mu Zhi reached out her hand and put it on top of Lu Jinye’s, “I’ve asked Xie Xiu for help just now to force the truth out of Linda. I worsened the situation.”

Mu Zhi breathed in deeply and tried to let herself calm down. But she still felt on edge after she had unloaded herself.

Lu Jinye simply consoled her, “It’s not your fault. I gave Xie Xiu a simplified version of the agreement two days before. The agreement literally states a zero profit towards Xie Xiu’s company as a guideline for negotiation, so it is totally normal for him to refuse it.”

“Why did you do this?”

Mu Zhi could not read Lu Jinye’s mind. But she saw the certainty in his eyes.

He glanced at the time. “I need to go to the company. Looks like we can’t stargaze together anymore. It will be a hectic day at the company today.”

“It’s alright.”

Mu Zhi replied composedly. She got off from the car to let Lu Jinye leave.

However, on second thought, she got back onto the passenger’s seat and declared, “I’m accompanying you to the company.”

Lu Jinye raised his head and stared deeply into Mu Zhi’s eyes.

“Why?”
