Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 313 You Know My Husband?

Mu Zhi saw that Xie Xiu was calling her and hurriedly looked for her phone charger only to find out that she did not bring it. She could only go borrow a charger from the front desk.

Mu Zhi chest clenched as she searched before finally giving up and dressing herself, hoping that it wasn’t too obvious that she wasn’t wearing any underwear. She went downstairs and looked for an employee only to realize that she couldn’t charge her phone with the provided charger as the port was different.

She had no choice but to give up. She turned only to see Lu Jinye sitting on the couch.

The rain was slowing, and it was cold. Lu Jinye’s clothes were still damp and the hall was airy, which made it even colder.

Mu Zhi walked over to Lu Jinye reluctantly and did not have the heart to leave him outside, “You may return to the room.”

Lu Jinye looked up at Mu Zhi, “You’re not scared?”

“I trust that you can control yourself.”

Mu Zhi would not have thought about it if he had not brought it up. She would have been happy if they pretended nothing had happened.

But Lu Jinye had to say it.

There was no other meaning to what he said, but the way Mu Zhi answered drove it in further.

Their exchange became filled with implications then.

Mu Zhi blushed at her own response.

Lu Jinye looked at Mu Zhi and stood up, “It’s too breezy here. Let’s go.”

He went ahead and called for the elevator. Mu Zhi quickly followed behind him and entered the elevator with him.

But when the doors closed with only the both of them inside, the air grew heavy with tension.

It was as if she couldn’t help but blush just by standing next to him.

All she could do was to take a step away from Lu Jinye to keep a distance.
