Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 228

Chapter 228 Young Folks These Days…

Mu Zhi would prefer to be charged at, slapped across the face, and yelled at her – ‘Bitch, how dare you steal my man?!’

That was what Xiao Qingqing did when she mistook Mu Zhi for seducing Lu Jinye.

Mu Zhi could accept being jeered at, but she could not take Zhu Sha’s doleful sobbing.

Mu Zhi bit her lower lip, so flustered that she could hardly speak.

Anything she said would sound insincere to Zhu Sha, and any form of comforting words would not affect Zhu Sha. After all, they were love rivals.

All Mu Zhi could do was stand rooted to the ground. After some moment, Zhu Sha suddenly yelled at Mu Zhi, seemingly to vent her frustration, “Mu Zhi, what’s so good about you that you could get all these?! What gives you the right?”

“Do you have any idea how talented Lu Junnian is in the medicine field? Do you know that you’ve destroyed him?”

Mu Zhi lowered her eyes, allowing Zhu Sha to bellow at her without fighting back. It took Mu Zhi a while before she raised her head to ask, “What do you think I could do? Am I supposed to tell Lu Junnian that he’s wasting his time? Do you think he’ll listen?”

Mu Zhi went straight to the point with composure and poise.

Zhu Sha did not expect that Mu Zhi would say this to her. She looked at Mu Zhi in astonishment, then shook her head.

Mu Zhi heaved a lamenting sigh. “Zhu Sha, I hope you can understand that I’ve made it very clear. The person I love is Lu Jinye. Whatever we had is in the past. Regardless of how hard Lu Junnian tries, there won’t be a future between the two of us. I’ve told him multiple times, but to no avail. I don’t even know what to say anymore.”

Mu Zhi paused in between her words, then continued, “So, I hope you could stop blaming me from now on. You should spend some time to think about how you could make Lu Junnian fall for you and how you could change him.”

After saying these, Mu Zhi sized up Zhu Sha.

She remembered the first time she met Zhu Sha. Just like the cinnabar, Zhu Sha was bright and catching to the eyes. Her vibrant, crimson red outfit gave her an energetic demeanor.

In contrast, Zhu Sha’s current outfit was dull. The apathetic moonlight further magnified her bleakness.

After sizing up Zhu Sha, Mu Zhi retracted her gaze and said, “This color doesn’t suit you. You should stop imitating me because that’s only going to remind Lu Junnian of me. So, why don’t you be bold and be yourself?”

Zhu Sha silently nodded while she was listening to Mu Zhi’s words. She then raised her eyes to meet Mu Zhi’s gaze, “I am sorry for what I have said earlier.”

Zhu Sha then turned around and left after her apology.

Mu Zhi stood on the same spot, staring at Zhu Sha as she walked away. When she came back to her senses, she turned around to find that Lu Jinye was standing from afar, looking at her with a smile.

“When did you come back here?”

Mu Zhi was awkward. She was not sure if Lu Jinye had heard what she said to Zhu Sha.

Thus, she tiptoed and sat on the swing as a means of distraction.

Meanwhile, Lu Jinye started pushing Mu Zhi on the swing insouciantly and said, “I came just in time to witness the lecture you gave Miss Zhu Sha.”

Hearing that, Mu Zhi became red in the face.

“Have you always been that indifferent towards your exes?”

Lu Jinye lowered his head and asked Mu Zhi playfully.

Mu Zhi laughed lightly. “Well, Mr. Lu, aren’t you the same?”

She could feel the swing abruptly slowing down under Lu Jinye’s firm grip. Closely after, a kiss was placed on Mu Zhi’s lips. The two of them started tangling to each other when their smooth and silky lips touched.

The moonlight felt like their spotlight.

Mu Zhi could feel Lu Jinye’s kiss become increasingly aggressive. She was perturbed but welcomed it zealously.

She could hardly succumb to her bodily desires.

As the kiss continued to progress, Lu Jinye had started running the tip of his fingers along with Mu Zhi’s figure. With his warm and thick hands, Lu Jinye unscrupulously undid the buttons on her clothes.

In the fraction of a second, when Mu Zhi came back to her rational mind, she noticed that Lu Jinye had almost completely undone her top.

She desperately used her hands to hold up her shirt, but Lu Jinye uttered in a hoarse voice, “Don’t be shy.”

The night breeze gave Mu Zhi goosebumps all over, and she was worried.

“Lu Jinye, not here.”

After all, they were in the yard.

The Lu’s Manor was massive, and this was quite a surreptitious spot, but… That did not stop her from feeling shy.

Her remark did not yield a response from Lu Jinye, and she had felt a tingling sensation in her body. At this point, Lu Jinye had gently pried her open and dove into the cave.

It was all too late.

Mu Zhi had utterly lost control of herself.

She was too familiar with Lu Jinye’s body, and he familiar with hers. He could easily identify the right spot to trigger a reaction in her while she would cooperate with him to give him the best experience.

Mu Zhi was resistant in the first place. But she eventually lost her mind. She no longer retaliated.

Instead, she was passionately receiving what was coming.

She bit her lower lip so she would not make a single noise.

A fair distance away, behind the bush, an elderly maid had witnessed everything unfold. She snapped a photo of the pair but forgot to turn off the flash.

Following that, she scrambled to flee the scene.

When she had gotten far enough, her phone started ringing.

Xiao Qingqing’s voice came from the phone. “Madam Liu, have you checked out Jinye and Mu Zhi’s interaction today?”

Her voice was modulated and laced with a rare tinge of gentleness.

“Umm… Miss Xiao, I can’t bear to say it. Let me just send you a photo and see for yourself. Young folks these days… Miss Mu is disgusting!”

Madam Liu then hurriedly sent the photo to Xiao Qingqing. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

After taking a look at the photo, Xiao Qingqing could feel steam shooting out of her ears. She paced her home five rounds before steadying herself, then said, “Madam Liu, then please show Mu Xiaomu the photo I sent you! I believe Jinye’s late mother would be grateful to you.”

“Hey, Miss Xiao, don’t say that I did all these willingly.”

Then, Madam Liu hung up the call and hastily proceeded towards Master Lu’s study room.

…

On the other hand, after getting off Lu Jinye’s body, Mu Zhi coyly and hurriedly dressed herself.
