Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 263 Better Than No Chance in Surviving

Mu Zhi gritted her teeth and looked at the rushing water behind her.

She had no choice. Little chance of surviving was better than no chance at all!

Mu Zhi closed her eyes, leaned back, and plunged into the water.

At Xie Xiu’s residence, Xie Xiu was playing a game of Go against himself when his secretary walked in and stood before him.

“Mr. Xie, the people who we sent to monitor Xiao Qingqing has returned. It seemed that Miss Xiao had taken the liberty to kidnap someone.”

“Who?” Xie Xiu frowned.

The secretary bit her lip anxiously and said, “Or maybe it’ll be better if you call Miss Xiao Qingqing and ask her yourself. I don’t know how to explain it.”

The secretary had worked for him for ten years now. Under normal circumstances, Xie Xiu never kept someone who he wasn’t familiar with him. Especially in personal role like this. These people grew up with him and he had moulded them from a young age to be the kind of people he need.

Naturally, he was able to tell if they were lying at a glance.

He slammed the Go board on the ground in anger when he saw the telling movement of her biting her lip, “If you’re trying to cover up lies in front of me then leave! I have no more use of you!”

At this, she started to panic.

She trembled as she looked at him fearfully.

“They kidnapped… Kidnapped Miss Mu Zhi!”

“Find where she is immediately!” Xie Xiu bellowed the order.
