Lu Jinye understood Mu Zhi’s concerns. He gently placed both hands on her shoulders, stared into her eyes fixedly, and said, “Not only do I want to give Xiaomu a home, but I also want to give you a home too.”

She drew a quiet, deep breath, turned around, and walked towards the window, opening it to air the room. She desperately needed a breath of fresh air.

Lu Jinye watched her for a long while before slowly headed towards her, “What are your worries?”

 

Before Mu Zhi could respond, Lu Jinye’s phone went off.

He lowered his head to glance at the screen. It was from Master Lu. So, he promptly answered it.

The butler came from the phone, “Master wishes to see you, he’s just been discharged from the hospital.”
