Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Do You Have Any Idea What Shameless Means

Mu Zhi answered the call reluctantly.

“What is it?” Asked Lu Junnian.

“I wanted to talk to Zhu Sha.”

Mu Zhi tried her best to put up a casual front as she responded to Lu Junnian.

“You can talk to me.”

Lu Junnian glanced in the bathroom’s direction but did not say anything to her.

Mu Zhi hesitated briefly.

She figured that it was nothing personal and agreed that there was no need to avoid Lu Junnian.

Thus, she went straight to the point, “I need you to look into the doctors who had been in charge of my mother’s treatment in the States, the drug prescription, and all records of her treatment, preferably with surveillance footage.” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Sure.”

Lu Junnian did not even ask a thing before agreeing to Mu Zhi’s requests.

Then, Mu Zhi heard the sound of a door shutting in Lu Junnian’s background, followed by Zhu Sha’s sheepish voice, “Junnian, I’m done with my shower.”

Mu Zhi instantly hung up the call.

She did not want to interfere with Lu Junnian and Zhu Sha’s quality time.

But on the other end of the phone, Lu Junnian did not seem to share the same opinion.

He clasped the phone in his hand, pressing it against his ear despite knowing that Mu Zhi would not say another thing.

It wasn’t until the beeping tone sounded from the phone when Lu Junnian appeared to have woken up from a dream. Then, he seized his jacket and burst out the door without saying a word to Zhu Sha.

Zhu Sha was startled at this sight. She thought about chasing after him.

But… Lu Junnian had turned the car engine over and took off with a vroom.

Moments earlier, they had agreed on having a quiet night to themselves, but for some reason, he was eager to leave in this instance.

It was common for Zhu Sha to feel lonely, but she could not help but feel miserable.

At least… Lu Junnian is just getting a drink and not womanizing out there. This was all she could think to make herself feel a little more comfortable.

She returned to her room to browse her phone, and… Lo and behold, the most recent call was with Mu Zhi. Moreover, the first call came from Mu Zhi. Zhu Sha was jaw-dropped at sight!

She did not hesitate before calling Lu Junnian. It felt like her fingers had moved uncontrollably against the will of her rational mind.

Lu Junnian answered the phone and sounded exceptionally insouciant.

“Where are you heading to? Looking for Mu Zhi?”

Zhu Sha asked directly.

“Yeah.”

Similarly, Lu Junnian answered frankly.

“Lu Junnian, I am your fiancée, and I’m pregnant with your child. Do you think you can try to empathize with my feelings?!”

Zhu Sha roared at Lu Junnian at the top of her lungs. She was trembling all over. But Lu Junnian responded unwaveringly as though nothing had concerned him.

“Zhu Sha, I only bedded you in the first place because I was drugged and mistook you as Mu Zhi. You understand that, right?”

Zhu Sha pursed her lips silently.

While Lu Junnian pressed on, “I treat you better these days only because you started dressing like Mu Zhi. You understand that too, right?”

Zhu Sha remained wordless.

Every word coming from Lu Junnian felt like needles piercing through her heart. She was quietly suffering in agony.

“You knew that Mu Zhi is the only woman I love when you wooed me earlier. I’ve made it clear to you too!”

Following that, Lu Junnian hung up the call without saying another word.

On the other hand, Mu Zhi went for a shower after her call with Lu Junnian. She had climbed onto the bed and prepared to sleep.

But Lu Junnian’s call came in.

“Hello?”

“I’ve got everything, come downstairs, let me hand the documents to you.”

Lu Junnian said to Mu Zhi overbearingly.

Mu Zhi was dumbfounded. “That’s fast.”

“If you can’t come down, I’ll bring it in. Everyone knows me anyway, the guards won’t stop me.”

“Don’t worry, let me go down.”

Mu Zhi sensed that Lu Junnian was under the influence of alcohol. He was different from his usual, gentle self.

She thought briefly and decided to head out.

But everything came too suddenly. She had no time to get changed.

Thus, she chose to wear a coat over her pajamas, scrambled to put on a pair of cloth shoes, and then left home.

She was at the villa entrance when she saw Lu Junnian’s car, but Lu Junnian was nowhere to be found when she approached the vehicle.

Strange, where’s him?

While Mu Zhi was wondering to herself, a man suddenly lugged her into his embrace from behind and kissed her amorously.

Lu Junnian’s breath smelled of alcohol. He was squeezing Mu Zhi firmly with all his strength, and Mu Zhi could not free herself.

The more she struggled, the harder Lu Junnian clenched his arms around her.

“Lu Junnian, let me go!”

“Mmm…”

All words from Mu Zhi turned into a series of muffled sound under Lu Junnian’s kiss.

Lu Junnian tried to pry her teeth open, but Mu Zhi was clenching her jaw tightly.

But ultimately, she let her last line of defense collapse and succumbed to Lu Junnian’s dominance.

In the split second that she relaxed her gritted teeth, Lu Junnian had penetrated his tongue into her mouth. Mu Zhi tried to shove him off but to no avail.

Lu Junnian’s kiss was laced with endless resentment and spite.

Mu Zhi was desperately struggling. Lu Junnian grasped her wrists. She was flustered, but Lu Junnian was able to overcome her with ease.

She could feel strength rapidly draining from her body.

At this moment, she caught a glimpse of a red figure.

“Lu Junnian, Mu Zhi!”

Before she could get a closer look, she heard a shrill voice that cracked towards the end.

Lu Junnian then flinched briefly but continued to hold Mu Zhi with both hands.

Mu Zhi seized the opening and pushed him away.

While she did, Zhu Sha had strode towards her, stared her down furiously with a sardonic smile, and struck her across the face!

Zhu Sha’s baby bump was showing. Combined with her petite figure, she looked meeker than usual.

“Mu Zhi, do you have any idea what you’re doing? How shameful can you be?!”

Zhu Sha yelled at Mu Zhi’s face.

Mu Zhi stood rooted to the ground.

She had the urge to defend herself but did not end up opening her mouth because Lu Junnian had shielded her behind him. He snapped at Zhu Sha listlessly, “Who are you to criticize Mu Zhi? You’re the one who has ruined my relationship!”

“Piss off!”

Listening to his words, Zhu Sha was flushed all over. Tears were brimming in her eyes.

She turned around and stomped away angrily.
