Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 212 There Has to Be Emotional Intimacy to Be Considered Intimate

Mu Zhi was aware that Lu Jinye had entered the bedroom. He did not turn on the lights, but Mu Zhi imagined that there was only a towel around his waist.

She closed her eyes tightly.

“I know you are awake.”

Lu Jinye spoke close to her ear. His voice was especially charming in the quiet room.

Just hearing his voice made her heart throb, and she didn’t dare to think what would happen if she could see him.

Her mind must have stopped working, otherwise, she could think of no other explanation for what she had said next, “I am asleep.”

She was shocked by her answer and was furious with herself.

On the other hand, Lu Jinye’s mouth curved into a satisfied smile.

“When you were in the bathroom just now, I heard you gulped. Did you… Have something in mind?”

Lu Jinye pressed a question to her.

In the dark, Mu Zhi gripped the blanket tightly. How should she answer the question?

Should she answer whether she had something in mind or continue pretending to be asleep?

Mu Zhi thought about it for a moment and decided that it was pointless to pretend to be asleep.

“I don’t have anything in mind,” replied Mu Zhi.

She opened her eyes. Aided by the intermittent moonlight, she saw that Lu Jinye was gazing at her intently. She felt as though the room had heated up under his gaze.

At the same time, a wave of heat was kindled in her heart.

Mu Zhi bit her lip. She wanted to say something to change the topic but before she could say anything, Lu Jinye pressed his lips against hers and consumed her words.

The softness of their lips felt both familiar and new.

It was new because they had not touched each other for a long time.
