Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 296 Who Is Rao Xue?

“That Mu Zhi lady is filthy rich.” “Tell me about it, they say that a helicopter came and took her away last night.” “It was sent by her husband. How madly in love he is with her. He wouldn’t let her suffer for a moment, that’s so cool.”

“What does her husband do for a living?” “Who cares? I’m envious of her. I want to marry someone like that too.” “To hell with it! That spot is reserved for fine-looking women like me. Quit dreaming.”

Lu Jinye frowned at the gossip. He had plans to break through Mu Zhi’s barrier slowly, but by the looks of it, he must wait no longer. Thus, he had decided to look into Mu Zhi himself.

He made a call to the technical team in his company, “I’ll send you a photo of a woman in a while. Give me everything you can get your hands on about her at once. Remember, every single thing, including the most confidential parts.”

…

On the other hand, upon landing in the States, Mu Zhi was relieved that she had finally managed to get rid of Lu Jinye. Her mood became brighter as a result.

She reached out to talk to Eric and was pleased to find out that he was having fun in City A.

Thus, Mu Zhi could gradually revert to her usual routine, keeping a low profile and live a carefree life.

Until one day, when she went to the supermarket for groceries. She had just settled her bill when she met a boy whose age was on par with Eric’s. The boy was standing in the middle of the road.

Numerous cars were swishing by the boy. He was seemingly terrified and at a loss of what to do, standing still on the center of the road without moving a finger.

At this moment, one of the many cars narrowly missed the boy and zoomed away rapidly. Mu Zhi’s heart sank at sight. The place was relatively rural, so vehicles travelled at a relatively higher speed. Passers-by seemed to be apathetic about the boy’s situation.

Mu Zhi became increasingly worried. Just as she was about to call the boy to come to her, another car came flying by. Without hesitation, Mu Zhi tossed away the groceries in her hands and charged at the little boy.

She was within a few meters of the boy when yet another car accelerated in their direction!

Zhi put away all thoughts in her mind and lugged the boy towards her. She managed to
