Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 268 There’s a Woman To Your Liking

The scoreboard had a countdown timer of the bidding at the same time as well.

There was not more than three hours left.

As the digits on the board rose swiftly, it only came to Mu Zhi’s realization that the others had their photos edited beautifully, whereas her picture had been edited to look older.

If one did not look carefully, they wouldn’t even recognize Mu Zhi from the photo.

The more careful Mu Zhi looked at it, the more disappointed she was.

The digital scoreboard’s lights now lighted up the originally crepuscular room. The expression on the women’s face could be seen this minute. The woman on the lead was ecstatic for her victory that she was seen jumping and squealing in joy. The others started to look more laid-back as the gap from the last kept expanding.

It was still risky for the ninth place.

There was still a possibility of being taken over in the past, but because of Mu Zhi’s poor performance, the ninth-place started to lower her guards.

All of them formed a clique laughing at Mu Zhi.

Only the woman who had a short conversation with Mu Zhi walked over with empathy in her eyes and comforted her, “Don’t worry. It is said that even though you are finishing in last, there’s a possibility that the mafioso would favor you, so you still have a chance.”

Mu Zhi nodded and thanked her.

She was grateful for her kindness.

They have got to the point where there was too much evil, and a little demonstration of kindness was worth feeling grateful for.

She knew that these were solely words to put her at ease. There was only a probability of about 1 in 1,000 or 1 in 10,000 that this would happen.

Mu Zhi raised her head again and stared at the changing digits on the scoreboard. The longer she looked, the more despair she felt.
