Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 29 Let’s Go for a Round After Running in To My Husband

Mu Zhi thought that her smile was natural. But Xiao Qingqing’s eyes flashed with panic.

She stared at Mu Zhi for a few seconds before registering what she had said. “Thank you.”

She turned to look at Lu Jinye, “Jinye, your undereye circles are so dark. We have two more hours before we arrive. Do you want to go sleep a bit?”

“I can stay with Miss Mu. Cramps are normal for women. I’ll take care of her.”

Mu Zhi did not know if she was doing it on purpose, but she wasn’t happy with Xiao Qingqing belittling her pain.

Her facial expression showed little about how she felt but she replied saying, “I’m fine now. I just need some medicine to stop the cramps and I’ll be okay to go to work.”

Lu Jinye’s watchful gaze searched her.

Lu Jinye finally relented after Mu Zhi nodded at him. “Then I’ll have some breakfast before heading to the office.”

“Sure.”

Mu Zhi nodded. Xiao Qingqing who saw Lu Jinye walk out, hurried to follow him.

Mu Zhi wanted to reach out to stop her but on second thought, she decided not to.

No matter what anyone said… They were truly in love. She was just a wife in name. She decided that she would not intrude into their matters any longer.

However, everything Xiao Qingqing did made Mu Zhi feel that she was filled with uneasiness.

Didn’t she say that what they had was true love? Then why didn’t she have any faith in their relationship?

Xiao Qingqing finally caught up to him just as they exited the hospital building. The weather was overcast, and it was drizzling slightly. It was cold and gloomy.

Xiao Qingqing sneezed. Lu Jinye took off his coat and wrapped it around her.

She finally smiled even though she still felt uncomfortable inside. She asked him indifferently, “Has Miss Mu always suffered from bad cramps?”
