Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 48 Then Let’s Not Get a Divorce

“Because you’re rich, honey.”

Mu Zhi gave Lu Jinye a heart-melting smile as she continued to dry his hair with a towel.

Lu Jinye fixed his gaze at Mu Zhi. Despite the smile on her face when she spoke, it was different from the dazzling light she exuded when she was discussing medicine.

In the past, Lu Jinye always thought Mu Zhi was joking when she said this.

Thus, he never thought of pressing onto the real reason she had married him.

But this time, after Mu Zhi had finished drying Lu Jinye’s hair, he asked, “Why did you marry me just because I’m rich? Did you need a lot of money?”

“Yeah, nobody hates cash.”

Mu Zhi wore a smile and said before turning around into the bathroom, washing the towel, and hung it up for drying.

Lu Jinye followed behind. He gathered Mu Zhi into his embrace, “Let me, what happened to you that year? Why were you desperate for money?”

Mu Zhi was stupefied for a moment. The dazzling light in her eyes instantly disappeared. When she raised her head to look at Lu Jinye, there was an obvious unsettling expression in her eyes.

She hesitated before putting on the same smile, “Honey, there’s no need to bring that up, it’s all in the past, I’m just grateful that you appeared in my life to give me a second chance.”

“Then let’s forget about the divorce, let’s get an extension.”

Lu Jinye suddenly let go of Mu Zhi. He gazed at Mu Zhi, who was standing before him with a stern face.

Mu Zhi was frightened by the enigmatic expression in Lu Jinye’s eyes. Once again, she hesitated before saying, “Honey, let’s not extend.”

“Why?”
