Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 27 A Man’s Tender Moment

He negotiated her forested chasm entire night. From the bathroom to the bedroom, and from the bathtub to the bed.

At the end of the battle, Lu Jinye walked to the bathroom, turned on the shower and washed up.

When he came out of the bathroom, he caught a glimpse of the phone that had just been left idle.

He picked up the phone and saw the name on it.

Looking at the time, he realized that the last call was made three hours ago.

He glanced at the time subconsciously. It was already one in the morning.

He picked up the phone once again and called Xiao Qingqing.

Xiao Qingqing had a habit of not willing to go to sleep if she could not reach Lu Jinye.

It was a habit that she developed since the day they got together.

Xiao Qingqing was different from Mu Zhi. Xiao Qingqing was a meticulous woman who needed to be enveloped in affection.

Mu Zhi, on the other hand, was an iron lady.

It seemed that the call was picked up within fractions of a second it rang.

“Jinye.” Xiao Qingqing’s crying voice could be heard from the other end of the call.

“What’s wrong? Are you crying?”

“No…”

Xiao Qingqing quickly denied it but her denial attempt was seemingly unconvincing.

“I miss you. Have you finished your work? I want to see you.”

From the other end of the phone came Xiao Qingqing’s reserved voice while Lu Jinye glanced at Mu Zhi for a moment.

Mu Zhi smiled at him, as if she did not care at all.

“Will you come and find me?”

Xiao Qingqing pleaded once again. All of a sudden, a woman’s voice could be heard, “My lady, stop standing by the window. Mr. Lu will not come at this late hour.”
