Chapter 182 Sleeping in Lu Jinye’s Embrace

 

Lu Jinye’s raised his wide, captivating eyes, observing Mu Zhi’s facial expression.

Meanwhile, Mu Zhi could not help but frown. She returned the file to Lu Jinye and pouted her lips, “He isn’t my partner.”

Lu Jinye then replied with a smirk, “If he isn’t your partner, why would you refuse my invitation for dinner and end up having the time to get lunch with him?”

With his domineering temperament, the sound of Lu Jinye’s words felt suffocating to Mu Zhi.

She glared at Lu Jinye right away, “Because I don’t feel like having dinner with you.”

“Mr. Lu, I suppose you’re after the custody of Mu Xiaomu and I don’t believe that’s good news to me. So, I don’t want to see you. I just want to escape from you. Mr. Lu, can you empathize with me?”

Lu Jinye said nothing in response.

 

In silence, he stared at her with his deep-set and enigmatic gaze, which made her… Terrified.

Mu Zhi turned her back towards him and ignored Lu Jinye while leaning against the back of the couch.
