Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 57
Chapter 57 Coincidence
Lu Jinye could not help but frown when he saw the long queue.
“Are you sure we can get a table?”
It was one of the most popr restaurants on the inte. Besides, Lu Jinye did not expect the crowd.
He stared at Xiao Qingqing, saying, “We cane back next time, I’ll get my secretary to make a
booking in advance.”
After finishing his words, he turned around intending to head back to the car.
But Xiao Qingqing seized his hand. Blinking at Lu Jinye, she pleaded, “You could hardly get a seat at
the restaurant with a booking anyway, you need to get a coupon a day prior and then show up to queue
for a seat.”
Hearing that further deepened Lu Jinye’s scowl, “So, what cuisine is this? I’ll get a chef to prepare a
meal for you at home.”
Xiao Qingqing let out a beaming smile. She pulled Lu Jinye towards the restaurant slowly with her soft
and silky hand. She came before a woman, saying, “Luo Li, thanks for queuing for us, we can take it
from here.”
The woman who was addressed as Luo Li smiled and whispered a few words into Xiao Qingqing’s ear
before leaving.
Xiao Qingqing flushed all over upon hearing Luo Li’s remark.
While Lu Jinye gazed at Xiao Qingqing and slowly moved into the queue. There were three groups
ahead of Luo Li so they did not have to wait long before entering.
They barely missed Liang Yunzhan and Liang Jieyi when they arrived at their spot.
Lu Jinye did not like the idea of queuing with the crowd. His and Xiao Qingqing’s appearances stood
out profoundly in the sea of people. Passers-by would not resist stealing a few extra nces at them as
they walked past. It was even more unsettling for him.
However…Today was Xiao Qingqing’s birthday. She went through the effort to get someone to queue
on their behalf, so he must not disappoint her.
In the end, he forwent the n of leaving the ce.
…
Mu Zhi and Mu Xiaomu found the closest table to the child’s y area. It was a ster spot for
stargazing. The scenery of the theme park was located to their left while the y area was to their
right. There would not be a better spot than this.
She shed the coupon for a set of signature kids’ meal and ordered a serve of dinner for herself. Just
as she was preparing to eat, a little boy’s voice arose.
“Dad, they’re there, do you think we can sit near them?”
Liang Yunzhan was clear of his son’s personality. He was cold and reserved. Thus, quarreling with Mu
Xiaomu was beyond his nature.
His son’s intention was unquestionable to get closer to Mu Xiaomu while doing so without getting
realized.
“I’m friends with Mu Xiaomu’s mother, why don’t we share a table with them?”
Liang Yunzhan nced at Mu Zhi and decided to be a wingman for his son.
Liang Jieyi pretended to protest, “Must we sit together?”
In the end, Liang Yunzhan left no breathing room for Liang Jieyi and headed towards Mu Zhi’s
direction. He greeted Mu Zhi casually, “Do you think we can sit across you guys? My son wants to sit a
little closer to your daughter.”
Hearing those words, Liang Jieyi’s little cheeks flushed like an apple.
“No way, I don’t want to be anywhere near Mu Xiaomu at all, I’m worried that she will be a bad
influence on my bright mind.”
“Humph, as if I want to be near you, humph!”
Mu Xiaomu intended to retort Liang Jieyi, but she was seeminglycking in the words she knew, hence
her snorts.
Witnessing this, Mu Zhi and Liang Yunzhan exchanged nces and sniggered as they took their seats.
Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing noticed Liang Yunzhan and Liang Jieyi the moment they entered the
restaurant. Mu Zhi was facing away from the entrance so Lu Jinye did not notice her.
He turned to Xiao Qingqing, saying, “Brother is over there, let’s go and greet him.”
Xiao Qingqing obliged withposure, “Sure.”
She would dly mix with Lu Jinye’s friends. She felt that it was the only way to solidify her stature as
his woman.
Following behind Lu Jinye, she approached Liang Yunzhan and greeted him with a light smile, “What a
coincidence, brother.”
In the end, she swept around and noticed that… Sitting across him was none other than Mu Zhi.
Mu Zhi felt a chill down her spine the instance she heard Xiao Qingqing’s voice. She let out an
awkward smile, “What a coincidence.”
Fortunately, Mu Xiaomu was sulking after quarreling with Liang Jieyi. She went to the children’s y
area to y on the slides.
So she barely missed Lu Jinye.
However! There was an element of unfortunate… She hardly took two bites of her kids’ meal and Mu
Xiaomu was bound to return to finish it off.
So it was just a matter of time before she got noticed!
“Do you want to share a table? I can move to the next table.”
The table could only fit four adults. Besides, the seating arrangement was fixed due to its rigid policy.

Mu Zhi had a point.
Lu Jinye nced at Mu Zhi and said, “Nah, we’ll go sit somewhere else.”
Xiao Qingqing nodded at Mu Zhi with a courteous smile and bid Liang Yunzhan goodbye before getting
ushered to another table with an equally as magnificent view.
Although they had left, Mu Zhi could not help but feel worried.
As she drew her eyes away from Lu Jinye, she noticed Liang Yunzhan was staring at her.
“What’s the matter, brother?”
Mu Zhi looked at Liang Yunzhan doubtfully.
Liang Yunzhan wore a faint smile, “I find you rather interesting, Miss Mu, don’t you feel a tinge of anger,
seeing Jinye with Miss Qingqing?”
They were aware that Mu Zhi was Lu Jinye’s contracted wife. Inevitably, they also heard of Mu Zhi’s
morous feats.
However, hearsay would always be hearsay. It wasn’t until he met Mu Zhi when he was truly
astounded.
Seeing that Mu Zhi remained silent, Liang Yunzhan smiled awkwardly and added, “I think Jinye is too
charming for a woman to not fall in love with.”
Mu Zhi raised her eyes to meet Liang Yunzhan’s. In fact, out of all the friends Lu Jinye had, she was
mostfortable with Liang Yunzhan.
The man was honest and sincere.
Moreover, there was no need to hide the truth of her rtionship with Lu Jinye.
Hence, she replied straightforwardly, “Brother, don’t you know that Lu Jinye and I have gotten a
divorce?”
Which meant that she was in no ce to sulk over any woman Lu Jinye might have.
Her words also subtly dodged his question about her feelings for Lu Jinye.
Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing were seated adjacent to Mu Zhi and Liang Yunzhan, while Lu Jinye was
facing away from them. So, he was not aware of the interactions urring at Mu Zhi’s table.
On the other hand, Xiao Qingqing intentionally sat across him. So that she could observe every
movement between Mu Zhi and Liang Yunzhan.
