Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 270 Don’t Touch Me!

That worried and sad pair of eyes was Lu Jinye’s.

Lu Jinye clenched his fists tightly as his eyes followed the panicked little woman on the stage since she appeared on it.

Ever since Mu Zhi got together with Lu Jinye, Lu Jinye had protected her well and had never put her in such a dangerous situation.

Although Lu Jinye knew that there were many dangerous sides in this world, he had never exposed Mu Zhi to any knowledge of these dangerous sides. The more he saw Mu Zhi panic on stage, the more remorseful Lu Jinye felt.

It was all his fault. He was at fault for not taking care of Mu Zhi well enough that she got lost, allowing the bad guys to manipulate her.

“Is there any way to make them start quickly? I want to take Mu Zhi away now!”

Lu Jinye glanced at Mo Fei, who was next to him impatiently and asked angrily.

Mo Fei sighed helplessly and replied to Lu Jinye, “Don’t be snappy, these are not within my control. The big guys owning these underground casinos are not people whom I can afford to offend. Although I know that you, Lu Jinye, are great, it is best not to get to their bad side.”

Lu Jinye gawked at Mo Fei, hinting at him to get straight to the point.

Mo Fei saw Lu Jinye’s fury at once. He did not dare to joke further. He could only sigh at Lu Jinye and explain, “The people behind these casinos are cruel. They do not have the so-called rules of the world, so we can’t act rashly!”

“If you weren’t careful, you won’t be able to save Mu Zhi at all.”

Lu Jinye’s clenched his fist tightly.

Just then, a host went up on stage. The real auction has begun.

Woman No. 1 was the first to go.

Hearing the host’s voice, Mu Zhi couldn’t help shaking.

She gritted her teeth tightly. Since God had helped her keep her life up to this extent, she must find a way to escape.

She couldn’t give up, nor be afraid! She must go back!

Mu Zhi secretly cheered for herself.

“Our bid starts now.”
