Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 253 Don’t You Dare Tarnish Young Master Jinye

Lu Jinye was a little boy at the time, and he only caught a glimpse of the woman.

In the later stages, he searched for information about the woman on the internet, but to no avail. It felt like the woman was wiped away from the surface of the earth.

The butler straightened himself, clasping the phone in his hand nervously as though he was facing the biggest enemy of his life.

It had been a while since he had taken a solemn behavior. He could not remember the last time he shuddered uncontrollably due to nervousness.

Every beep sound coming from the phone receiver felt like a thump on his heart.

Each thump on his heart felt harder than the last.

Lu Jinye did not pick up the call in the first instance. The monotonous beeping sound felt like a call from the devil into the vehement hellfire.

The phone was suddenly answered when the old butler had lost count of how many beeping sound he had braved through.

“Hello?” Lu Jinye’s voice sounded from the receiver.

“Young master!” The poor butler’s voice was trembling frailly.

“Bad news!”

His voice cracked towards the end while Lu Jinye could not help but scowl.

“What happened?”

“Master told me to look into a woman called Mu Xue today, and in the end, i-it.. It led to Miss Mu Zhi.”

Lu Jinye gaped his eyes at the sound of the butler’s words.

On the other hand, Xie Xiu tried to stop Mu Zhi when she bade farewell to him. He said to her solemnly, “Stay here tonight, I’ll let you go tomorrow morning.”
