Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 144


    Chapter 144 Kisses Between Couples


    Mu Zhi was stunned with her eyes fixed on Zhu Sha. It wasn’t until Zhu Sha’s hostile gaze met her


    eyes when Mu Zhi turned her eyes away.


    Next to them, the hospital representative burst into a fit ofughter after Zhu Sha introduced herself.


    “Dr. Zhu Sha, what a coincidence, you must be destined to be connected to the family member of our


    newest patient, Mu Zhi.”


    “Yourst names rhyme and the spelling of Zhu and Zhi are so simr.”


    The hospital representative made a very, veryme joke.


    Mu Zhi did not go along with the joke, while Zhu Sha chuckled lightly, and said, “What witty brain you


    have.”


    Following that, Mu Zhi was brought toplete the admitting procedure. Upon finishing with the


    procedure, Mu Zhi heaved a sigh of relief. She was mentally and physically drained. It was dusk. Mu


    Zhi slowly headed out of the reception area, preparing to set off to the canteen for dinner.


    She ended up running into Zhu Sha once again.


    Zhu Sha looked at Mu Zhi, and put up an inviting smile, “Miss Mu Zhi, I trust you haven’t found a ce


    to stay since you’re in a rush. My house is just nearby, you can crash at my ce. It’s convenient for


    you to make your way to the hospital too.”


    “I don’t think that’s necessary. Thank you for your offer, Dr. Zhu Sha.”


    Mu Zhi understood that some people might be more zealous than others. In this instance, Zhu Sha’s


    smile was warm and gentle. But she could sense that the woman was not that simple from the first time


    they locked eyes.


    There was no reason for Zhu Sha to be overzealous towards Mu Zhi.


    “Then what about a meal together?”


    Zhu Sha did not seem to be bothered by Mu Zhu’s rejection of her gesture.


    Mu Zhi nodded and headed in the canteen’s direction. She could feel Zhu Sha sizing up herself on the


    way. After a long moment, Zhu Sha asked, “Miss Mu, do you have a boyfriend?”


    The question was beyond the boundaries of a pair of strangers.


    It was too personal. Mu Zhi was rather unwilling to answer it.


    Noticing Mu Zhi’s reluctance, Zhu Sha exined to Mu Zhi in embarrassment, “Miss Mu, please don’t


    mistake me. I didn’t mean to be nosy. I just find you pretty, so you should have a partner.”


    After finishing her words, Mu Zhi had not managed to address Zhu Sha’s query before Zhu Sha’s


    phone went off. She answered the phone with a weing attitude, greeting the caller as ‘madam’.


    “Madam, sure, got it. Don’t worry, I’ll be careful with our rtionship.”


    “Alright, goodbye, madam.”


    The zealous attitudebined with her expression told Mu Zhi that the call might havee from the


    mother of Zhu Sha’s partner.


    Mu Zhi used to rock that upright attitude.


    Thus, she could rte to it.


    After hanging up the call, Zhu Sha apologized to Mu Zhi, and then said casually, “Let’s go get dinner.”


    Mu Zhi followed behind Zhu Sha into the canteen.


    However, as soon as they entered, a series of flurried footsteps came from behind them. A man


    showed up and questioned her apathetically, “What are you doing here?”


    The voice belonged to Lu Junnian.


    Mu Zhi could instantly tell.


    She hurriedly spun around, staring at Lu Junnian who came out of nowhere, wanting to tell him the


    reason for her visit to the hospital. However… It just urred to her that Lu Junnian’s question was not


    directed at her.


    It was meant for Zhu Sha.


    Lu Junnian’s gaze was fixed on Zhu Sha, while Zhu Sha behaved insouciantly. She replied


    nonchntly, “Why can’t I be here? I’m the doctor in charge.”


    “You intentionally applied for this treatment?”


    Lu Junnian’s eyes were locked on Zhu Sha like an eagle watching its prey.


    However, there was not a hint of intimidation on Zhu Sha’s face. She blinked her eyes, reached out to


    hold Lu Junnian’s arm, and changed into a teenager’s coquettish tone, saying, “Don’t worry, I’m an


    ethical doctor. Besides, Prof. Andrew is guiding us, I won’t do anything reckless.”


    “Unless… You’re worried about what I may do to Miss Mu? Don’t you worry, I quite like Miss Mu.”


    At this point, the rtionship between the two dawned on Mu Zhi. She felt ufortable to be the third


    wheel amid the lovey-dovey of the couple. So, she turned around and headed straight to the canteen.


    Fortunately… Both of them did not follow suit. They might be bickering with each other.


    Mu Zhi sat at the edge to finish her meal before preparing to leave silently.


    s, as soon as she stepped out of the canteen, she met Lu Junnian waiting by the entrance.


    She could tell that he was expecting her by his bodynguage.


    Zhu Sha was not around him.


    Mu Zhi raised her eyes to nce at Lu Junnian then walked past him, pretending not to see him. But


    Lu Junnian called out her name. He looked at her, asking, “Why didn’t you inform me beforeing


    here? I could arrange for your amodation and the transfer.”

    Mu Zhi merely glimpsed at him with a listless expression, “I can handle it, it’s not necessary.”


    After finishing her words, she turned around and left.


    But Lu Junnian chased after her, following closely behind Mu Zhi nonchntly. He did not seem to want


    to make any exnation.


    While Mu Zhi had no intention to question him.


    Lu Junnian’s personal matters were none of her business.


    However, with Lu Junnian ceaselessly following her, she could not make her way to the hotel. More


    troubles woulde upon her if Lu Junnian had found out where she stayed.


    In the end, Mu Zhi returned to the medical ward, waiting outside her mother’s ward.


    Finally, Zhu Sha showed up. She weed Lu Junnian zealously as soon as she saw him, saying in


    an ufortably coquettish tone, “What are you doing here? Are you worried that I’d be too bored


    over the night shift, so you’re here to keep me apanied?”


    “I knew it, you’re such a considerate man. You’re only cold on the surface.”


    Lu Junnian appeared to insist on keeping a safe distance between him and Zhu Sha, despite trying to


    not make it obvious.


    Mu Zhi espied the distance between the two. She wondered to herself that any other woman wouldn’t


    be this close to Lu Junnian.


    She did not waste another second. Seizing the opportunity, she fled the hospital, found a hotel, and


    checked into it. Upon settling down, she hurriedly made a call to Liang Yunzhan to ask about Mu


    Xiaomu.


    It was dawn in City A. Meanwhile, Lu Jinye had spent the night drinking with Liang Yunzhan, having no


    intention to leave whatsoever. He dragged Liang Yunzhan along, saying, “Brother, let’s go have some


    fun in the garden,e on.”


    He put an arm over Liang Yunzhan’s shoulder. Hence naturally, when Liang Yunzhan took his phone


    out of the pocket, Lu Jinye could see Mu Zhi’s name on the screen.
