Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 292 You Call This Compatibility

It was nightfall. Some of the passengers came together to start a bonfire. Many crowded the fire with their rations, having a casual chat as a way to find joy despite the mishap.

Mu Zhi didn’t want to join a bonfire. Technically, she had no urge to join any event that would bring her and Lu Jinye to the same place.

However, the crew of the plane was overzealous. If any passenger refused to join the bonfire, they would swamp them with apologies until the passenger agreed to attend.

Without any option, Mu Zhi could only join the bonfire.

Fortunately, when she arrived at the bonfire, Lu Jinye did not seem to be present.

Mu Zhi had a poncho over her shoulders. She continuously tried to shuffle towards the fire, but it was not enough to fight the chilly weather. She was unenthusiastic about the bonfire, at least not as enthusiastic as the other passengers who were dancing and singing. She sat smiling at the crowd, pretending to be happy. In this instance, a stranger suddenly sat next to Mu Zhi, saying to her amorously, “Are you cold? You might feel better if I come closer to you.”

The man grinned from ear to ear. His long legs and distinct features would make most girls want to steal a few extra glances at him.

However, Mu Zhi merely raised her eyes at him and said, “I’m alright, thanks.”

She then subconsciously shuffled away from him.

“Are you scared of me?”

Upon noticing her movements, the man leaned towards her and asked.

Mu Zhi shook her head courteously. What else could she have done? She didn’t feel comfortable shunning the man or telling him to get lost!

She would be the biggest drama queen if that was the case.
