Falling for the Contract Bride

Chapter 319 Saved Her Life

Mu Zhi turned around and stared at the hand that was holding hers tight. Then she flung it off fiercely and taunted, “Let go.” Lu Jinye glanced at Mu Zhi. They were already by the roadside. He could see that Mu Zhi had come by herself today.

She did not drive. Lu Jinye scrutinized Mu Zhi, hesitated a while, and invited, “Let’s talk about it in the car.” It felt uncanny conversing in a cemetery.

Mu Zhi threw Lu Jinye a suspicious glance, then followed him into his car. As soon as she got in, she directed, “Okay, you can start speaking.”

While igniting the engine, Lu Jinye gazed into Mu Zhi’s eyes and explained, “This was your mother. Needless for me to point out, she looked exactly like you.”

“So what? It would not be a complicated task for Chairman Lu to find a Photoshop professional to doctor some photos.”

“And what do I get doing all these?”

Lu Jinye frowned and stared at Mu Zhi.

Mu Zhi did not want to look at Lu Jinye. She folded her arms in front of herself to display her reluctance to cooperate.

Then she proclaimed deliberately, “Hadn’t Chairman Lu’s intentions been clear enough all this while?”

“I understand Chairman Lu’s anguish over losing your beloved wife, but please refrain from hinging your love onto others.”

Mu Zhi stopped right after she said these words.

She demanded Lu Jinye, “Do you care to stop at the shoulder ahead? I want to get out of the car.”

Hearing Mu Zhi’s words, Lu Jinye scowled helplessly.

He did not intend to let Mu Zhi go so quickly. Mu Zhi pressured Lu Jinye, “Let me go off now.”

“Chairman Lu, love is supposed to be a mutual affection, not personal indulgence. You’re forcing yourself upon me now.”

Mu Zhi was clearly pushing Lu Jinye away by any means possible.

Lu Jinye frowned and leered at Mu Zhi. Finally, he stopped the car by the side and analyzed, “It is easier to find your transportation here. If you want to take the bus or the train, walk straight to the junction ahead. If not, you can just flag down a cab here. But it’s almost noon, so there might be fewer cabs going around.”
