Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 302 She Doesn’t Know Xie Xiu at All

The butler instructed the other servants to clean up the acrylic paints and antiques in several organized batches. He stopped his motions as soon as he heard what Mu Zhi had to ask.

He asked Mu Zhi in confusion, “Madam, what do you mean by that?” Mu Zhi became reluctant. She too, had no idea why the question slipped her tongue, and she couldn’t explain it to the butler.

Her rational mind told her that she shouldn’t believe in what a strange woman had to say about Xie Xiu’s past.

After all, he was her husband. Although she had lost her memories, through Xie Xiu’s description of their love story in the past, she could understand that they were deeply in love.

Moreover, Mu Zhi had seen how Xie Xiu treated her in the past five years.

The Xie Xiu whom the woman described was someone she had zero knowledge of and someone she would not trust.

Mu Zhi figured that their relationship should be built upon a foundation of trust.

Thus, she swiftly shook her head and said to the butler, “Nah, nothing. I’m just asking. I’m tired, let me head back into the room for some rest.”

Following that, she stood up and headed upstairs, straight towards the bedroom.

She only came out of her room for a few bites of food during mealtimes and spent the rest of her time hiding in her room.

Meanwhile, after receiving news of Rao Xue, Xie Xiu sent his men to follow up with the information. He rushed to the location when the subordinates came back to report to him of her whereabouts.

At last, when he arrived at the scene, Rao Xue was nowhere to be found.

Xie Xiu snapped at the secretary who brought the information to him, “Is this all you have?”
