Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 266 This Must Be Your First Time Being Sold

In days gone by, Mu Zhi had the feeling that Secretary Rao was an unfriendly person.

But it was justifiable, because she cared for Xie Xiu, and Mu Zhi had always troubled him.

However, Mu Zhi suddenly discovered another side of Secretary Rao today. She exuded a shuddering chill around her.

It was hair-raising.

Mu Zhi did not respond to Secretary Rao’s words. She merely glanced at Secretary Rao worriedly.

Secretary Rao raised the corner of her lips and sniggered, “You wouldn’t know, nor care because we were born different.”

Secretary Rao slowly walked towards a shelf and said, “There were thirty of us in our batch. We fought and grew up together. Nevertheless, when we reached a certain level of training, we were made to battle each other to death. Some lost their lives during the battle, some survived. However, some of the survivors could only take on lowly jobs after that because they were no longer physically fit. I’m able to stay by Mr. Xie Xiu’s side right now because of the countless last breaths I waged for.”

“That’s awful.”

Mu Zhi let out an uncontrollable sigh.

“Mr. Xie Xiu has always been a careful and strong person. But he has now hesitated countless times because of you. Do you know what huge mistake you have made?”

Mu Zhi did not know how to continue anymore as she heard Secretary Rao’s words.

It sounded atrocious no matter what.

How could there be such a creepy person…

Xie Xiu had made such a terrible law.

“You wouldn’t know because you are one who gets love easily.”

Secretary Rao chuckled lightly at her conclusion.

“I think you might have misunderstood some of the things.”

Mu Zhi fudged and mudged, then explained to Secretary Rao, “My relationship with Mr. Xie Xiu isn’t what you think it is. I love Lu Jinye.”
