Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 58


    Chapter 58 Astonished


    Just as Xiao Qingqing lifted the ss of juice for a sip, an adorable little girl came out of the y area


    and scurried towards Mu Zhi with her little legs in an obedient manner.


    She stood before Mu Zhi. There was quite a distance between them, so Xiao Qingqing could not make


    out what Mu Zhi was talking to the little girl. She espied Mu Zhi instinctively scanned the area before


    standing up, bringing the little girl to the washroom.


    Xiao Qingqing hesitated. Her gaze remained in the general direction of Mu Zhi, who was disappearing


    afar, while the ss of juice remained in the air. In the end, she identally titled the ss, spilling the


    juice everywhere, on the table, and herself.


    The attendant promptly came over to clean the area.


    Xiao Qingqing told Lu Jinye bashfully, “Jinye, I need to go to the washroom.”


    Lu Jinye nodded in response, while Xiao Qingqing gradually stood to her feet and set off to the


    washroom.


    In the washroom, Mu Zhi allowed Mu Xiaomu to use the toilet cubicle alone as she waited by the sink.


    Then, walking towards her was Xiao Qingqing.


    Mu Zhi hesitated briefly, wondering if she should hide. However, it was obvious that Xiao Qingqing had


    seen her, evident by the dazzling smile on her face.


    A pretentious smile at that.


    “Miss Mu, what a coincidence.”


    Mu Zhi nodded as she had her eyes in Mu Xiaomu’s direction.


    “What brought you here for dinner? Goodness, not only does the food suck, but we also need to queue


    up for ages.”


    Xiao Qingqing’s tone suggested that she was expressing a grievance.


    Mu Zhi turned her attention to Xiao Qingqing.


    Didn’t you choose toe here too… What’s with that picky attitude?


    Undoubtedly, she did not allow these words to slip her tongue.


    Xiao Qingqing came to the sink, twisted the tap, and started cleaning her dress, saying, “Miss Mu, did


    you join the massive queue for your table?”


    “Such patience. If Jinye didn’t know that I wanted toe here and insisted to queue for me, I’m afraid


    that… I wouldn’t be here at all.”


    Mu Zhi twisted the tap as well, running her fingers underneath the water as she nced at Xiao


    Qingqing.


    It was clear that Lu Jinye did not have the patience to queue. Thus, she was surprised to find Lu Jinye


    at the restaurant.


    Lu Jinye loved Xiao Qingqing but not her. That was never an issue to her.


    However, Xiao Qingqing’s constant bragging and boasting were starting to piss her off.


    Mu Zhi refused to respond to her remark. She took out her phone to send a voice message to Jian


    Xiaoning in a deliberately loud voice.


    “Don’t give me coupons to a rubbish restaurant like this anymore, sigh, it’s all Jinye’s fault for spoiling


    me with delicious food during our marriage, my pte is growing overly sophisticated now. I can’t bear


    ordinary food.”


    Jian Xiaoning must have been busy as a bee at the hospital right now. She would not have the time to


    check her phone. So, Mu Zhi could say whatever she wanted to.


    Following which, Mu Zhipletely disregarded Xiao Qingqing and went into the cubicle for Mu


    Xiaomu.


    Meanwhile, Xiao Qingqing was clenching her fists furiously. She tried her best to hide her


    discontentment from her face…


    Turning around to whip her hair across the air, she left the washroom and sat down across Lu Jinye.


    Mu Zhi led Mu Xiaomu out of the toilet and left the restaurant on a random excuse. It was too


    dangerous to expose Mu Xiaomu in the public.


    The wisest move was to flee.


    She brought Mu Xiaomu to a nearby shop for some food before bringing her to the theme park.


    When they had returned home, Jian Xiaoning was nowhere to be found. It seemed like… A busy night


    at work.


    Mu Zhi was drained of energy. After coaxing Mu Xiaomu to sleep, she fell into a deep sleep.


    The second day, Mu Zhi had to go work at the hospital. Upon finishing her wash-up, she noticed Jian


    Xiaoning had been enjoying her breakfast. A boring entertainment news report was shing on the TV


    screen.


    She came over and sat across Jian Xiaoning, grabbed a piece of croissant, preparing to stuff it into her


    mouth. But she was stoked to see two familiar faces on TV.


    Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing.


    ‘Famous movie star Xiao Qingqing with her return to the country, caught in a date with Lu Jinye. Has


    the love in the past reignited? When will Mrs. Lu step in to quench the zing me of their love?’


    The caption… Mu Zhi was bewildered by the reporter’s imagination.


    She withdrew her gaze, continuing to enjoy the food on the table, not getting affected by the contents of


    the news by a single bit.

    However, Jian Xiaoning, who was sitting across her, spoke up.


    “Is this Xiao Qingqingdying out for another stint of 15 minutes of fame?”


    “Mu Zhi, please handle Lu Jinye.”


    Mu Zhi drank a mouthful of milk and almost sprayed it across the table.


    How was she supposed to handle Lu Jinye?


    But Jian Xiaoning added, “I get a feeling that Lu Jinye doesn’t love Xiao Qingqing, otherwise, Xiao


    Qingqing wouldn’t be desperate for attention, spreading rumors like this.”


    Her words made Mu Zhi’s heart skipped a beat.


    She could not help but recall how Xiao Qingqing was bragging about Lu Jinye queuing up for her at the


    Singkwong Restaurant. In the first ce, she too, thought it was a gesture of love by Lu Jinye…


    But it dawned on her that Jian Xiaoning had a valid argument. If she possessed his love, she might not


    be eager to boast about it.


    That was… Intriguing.


    Mu Zhi took a nce at the time. She was gettingte. Stuffing a piece of bread into her mouth, she


    could not bother gossiping with Jian Xiaoning.


    “Forget it, my marriage with Lu Jinye is purely business. It’s over. I need to go to work.”


    She hopped into her Volkswagen Polo and rushed to the hospital.


    Upon arrival at the hospital, she figured she should visit Master Lu, only to be informed by her


    colleagues that Lu Jinye had transferred him to another hospital over the night.


    Mu Zhi was puzzled for a moment. She asked her colleagues about the reasoning behind the transfer.


    The colleague scanned the area before whispering, “Haven’t you heard? Our dean has recently


    poached a doctor at sky-price high, the doctor’s first surgical procedure was rescuing Master Lu, then,


    after a sessful procedure, he requested for Lu Jinye’s wife in return!”


    “With that request, no man would not allow Master Lu to continue staying at this hospital!”


    “Poaching a doctor at a high price?”


    Mu Zhi stared at the colleague, stupefied.


    What the colleague told her was indeed surprising, but she was even more worried about the new


    doctor.


    By the looks of it, the doctor was Lu Junnian!


    “Dr. Lu Junnian, but he hasn’te to work these few days, besides, I heard that he’s rather arrogant,


    the condition he offered to sign with the hospital was to hire a specific female doctor.”


    “!”


    In this instance, Mu Zhi was astonished.


    To hire a specific female doctor…


    Could she be the appointed female doctor…?


    She thought the gods had finally favored her, allowing a hospital to finally realize her talents!
