Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 70 Sharing a Bedroom

Mu Zhi was too embarrassed to ask Lu Jinye for a lift.

Mu Zhi disregarded it, advancing towards the gate “Looks like it’s raining soon, why don’t you stay here tonight?”

Behind her came Lu Jinye’s voice. There was no trace of emotion dwelling in his words. It was merely an offer to stay.

“It’s fine.”

Even though Mu Xiaomu was currently being taken care of by Jian Xiaoning, Mu Zhi was hesitant to spend time alone with Lu Jinye.

He gazed at the sky. Since Mu Zhi had no intention to stay, he figured he shouldn’t force her.

Mu Zhi continued walking out.

The manor was massive, while Lu Jinye’s villa was located deep inside the compound. When Mu Zhi arrived at the door, the violent wind did not subside. Instead, it became even stronger.

Mu Zhi started increasing her pace.

While Lu Jinye showed no intention to see Mu Zhi off. He remained at the door, silently watching at Mu Zhi when she insisted to leave.

This woman… Is she that eager to leave me after the divorce?

Even go as far as to deliberately keep a distance?

Hrm… Intriguing, interesting.

He watched as the woman desperately tried to hold her skirt down in the strong wind, frantically looking around at the gate.

It was difficult to find a cab at this hour.

And still, it did not seem like he was going to offer her a lift, watching her like a monkey.

Mu Zhi had no idea how long she had stood at the gate. As time passed, it became even unlikelier to get a cab. She was starting to second-guess herself!

That was not the point. The thing was that not only did the wind become more violent, it also started drizzling!

It started as droplets of water splashed on Mu Zhi’s body. She scowled in discontentment. She wanted to move closer to the road, but in the blink of an eye, a huge rain poured down.
