Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 346 The Overprotective Husband

She surfed the net and shortlisted three companies before submitting her resume to each of them. It took her only a few moments to receive her first interview.

The application process went smoothly from the beginning till the offer. Mu Zhi was happy with it, so she accepted the offer without considering the other companies.

This company looked trustworthy to Mu Zhi. Everyone was inviting, and she mixed in blissfully.

Mu Zhi did not know why she had started to love working.

And undoubtedly, she would never dare to inform Xie Xiu about getting a job.

Xie Xiu did not spend any time in the country since they last met.

She enjoyed a week of work seamlessly. During the first day of the second week, she returned home to – lo and behold – seeing Xie Xiu sitting on the couch.

Mu Zhi froze and stared at Xie Xiu in disbelief.

Then asked with a frown, “What are you doing back here?”

She put up a nonchalant front so that Xie Xiu wouldn’t notice her nervousness.

But when Xie Xiu met her eyes, then casually turned his gaze to the clock on the wall, he said, “Just finished work?”

Xie Xiu spoke bluntly on purpose to give Mu Zhi a chance to explain.

True enough, Mu Zhi chuckled awkwardly upon hearing his words, then said, “Honey, didn’t you put me out of work last time? How could I still be working? I’m jobless.”

“You’re not a good liar.”

Seeing how nervous Mu Zhi was, Xie Xiu muttered with furrowed brows.
