Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 203 I Am Happy Just to Have You

Mu Zhi stayed where she stood and didn’t move. She was shocked still.

She did not expect Lu Jinye to spend this much time on this… Everyone knew that charity work took a lot of time and would be a long arduous process. If Lu Jinye was seriously invested in this, it would take up a lot of his time.

Mu Zhi had never thought that Lu Jinye would be the kind of person to spend time doing this.

She stood stunned for a few more moments before nodding towards Linda, indicating that she understood and let Linda go to complete her tasks.

She then quickly headed towards Lu Jinye’s office.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Lu Jinye arching his back and stretching his muscles. He kneaded at the knots in his shoulders. He was noticeably exhausted.

Mu Zhi did not knock. She left the door open and walked in.

Lu Jinye had his back facing her and Mu Zhi deliberately kept her footsteps light as she walked towards him. When she reached him, she gently placed her hands lightly on his shoulders. Lu Jinye turned his head to look at her in alarm.

He relaxed when he saw who it was.

“Why are you here?”

“If I didn’t come, how would I find out that despite how invincible Mr. Lu might seem, he still gets tired?”

Lu Jinye couldn’t help but smile when he heard Mu Zhi’s voice.

He turned and pulled her into his embrace. Lu Jinye softly said, “The only time I’m not tired is when you entice me. In fact, all other times, I feel pretty tired.”

This was a confession, albeit a suggestive one.

Mu Zhi snorted. She smiled as she shrugged him off then turned to look at him. “I came to discuss something serious with you.”

“What did you want to discuss?”

Lu Jinye frowned.
