Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 249 What Has Lu Jinye Been Preparing Behind Her Back

At the Lu’s Manor.

The dazzling moonbeam was phenomenal. The entire manor could be out of power, and it wouldn’t lose a dash of its glamor under the illumination of the moon.

Master Lu stood by the window to gaze at the magnificent sky. He heaved a deep sigh.

After some moment, he ordered the butler, “Look into Mu Xue’s background in the recent years at once!”

He started coughing violently as a result of being too anxious when he spoke.

The butler scrambled to come next to Master Lu, and told Madam Liu to pour him a glass of water. After Master Lu drank the water, the butler started making his way out, saying, “Yes, sir.”

Master Lu roared, “Hurry up! Do it immediately!”

“Got it.”

The butler did not dare slight Master Lu. He burst out of the room.

Meanwhile, a smile surfaced on Madam Liu’s face as she left master’s room.

She too gazed at the splendid moon in the sky.

It was a humongous, round moon. Every time she saw a bright moon, Madam Liu would be reminded of the night when a woman knocked on her door, telling her, “Madam Liu, I can’t do it, I don’t want to live anymore.”

As the words echoed in her head, Madam Liu scurried away.

Don’t be too anxious, young lady.

It will be over very soon. Someone is coming to keep you accompanied.

There are some things I can’t manage, but karma will right the wrong.

At that thought, Madam Liu started picking up her pace involuntarily as she went back to her bedroom.

On the other hand, Mu Zhi intended to walk by herself when they had returned home.

But Lu Jinye had circled the car to wait for her at the door before she managed to step off the car. He leaned in to carry her off the seat, then walked towards the house. Mu Zhi was startled briefly.
