Chapter 148 Am I That Unattractive

 

When Lu Jinye finally managed to free himself from the pack of thirsty women, he noticed that Mu Zhi had gone missing. He hurriedly scanned the ball venue but failed to pinpoint Mu Xiaomu. Thus, he deduced that Mu Zhi was no longer around.

He promptly wheeled around and strode towards the elevator.

When he came to the elevator, he caught glimpse of the elevator doors closing. Mu Xiaomu was left behind, weeping sorrowfully alone while Mu Zhi was carried into the elevator by a man.

Lu Jinye leaped forward to stop the elevator from shutting completely. He glared at the man with a pair of cold, apathetic eyes. The man was stunned, as though frozen from head to toe, and started trembling in response.

However, he picked up the remaining courage that was left in him, and warned Lu Jinye, “You better leave right now, mind your own business!”

Lu Jinye rooted his feet into the ground, standing by the elevator door, and would not let it close. He curled his lips into a faint smile. Without uttering a word, he launched a punch at the man.

The man did not react in time. He was knocked several steps backward, and almost stumbled to the ground. Mu Zhi slipped from his arms.

 

Lu Jinye swiftly caught Mu Zhi before she landed on the floor.

Mu Zhi’s face was oddly flushed all over. She fought to crack her eyes open to see at Lu Jinye before immediately letting her eyelids close.

She was powerless.

 

The contact between Lu Jinye’s arms and Mu Zhi’s body told him that something was not right with her. She was scorching hot!
