Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 166


    Chapter 166 Us Not Getting Married Is a Form of Respect


    The ce was boisterous, plus Lu Jinye had arrivedte, so he did not hear the conversation Xiao


    Qingqing had.


    Xiao Qingqing hid her phone knowingly when she saw Lu Jinye. She did not allow any change of facial


    expression.


    She paced gently over towards Lu Jinye. She smiled at him with eyes chock-full of tears.


    “You’re here. The wedding has ended.”


    “I know. I’m here to apologize. I’ll handle the rest for you.”


    Lu Jinye exined lightly.


    But this exnation did not bring Xiao Qingqing the slightestfort.


    She chuckled in spite of herself and looked at Lu Jinye.


    “Are you not willing to marry me regardless of the benefits you’ll have by doing so?”


    Xiao Qingqing felt disgraced when she blurted out the question herself! It was so humiliating!


    The child in her womb could not even make Lu Jinye stay. Now… What more could she have to say if


    this beneficial rtionship could not refrain him from leaving? It was substantial proof of how much Lu


    Jinye desired to abandon her!


    Lu Jinye glowered at Xiao Qingqing, “Yes.”


    “Because of Mu Zhi?”


    Xiao Qingqing’s tears rolled freely down her cheeks. She clenched her fists tightly together as she


    spouted the question.


    Lu Jinye neither nodded nor shook his head. He only notified her, “I’ll ask someone toe see you


    out. Leave me the rest, I will face the press.”


    Xiao Qingqing looked at Lu Jinye tenderly, then slowly walked towards the sofa. She sat down and


    refused Lu Jinye earnestly, “Go handle the rest but I do not need you to see me out.”


    “I shall be waiting here.”


    Just then, Lu Jinye’s public rtions managers had arrived at the scene.


    Lu Jinye turned back and looked at his employees who were on standby, then slowly walked towards


    the door.


    As he reached the entrance, he nced at Xiao Qingqing again, then ordered Linda, “Stay here and


    apany Xiao Qingqing.”


    Thereafter he walked out and left.


    …


    Mu Zhi coaxed Mu Xiaomu into the vi after Lu Jinye had left.


    They were alone. Mu Zhi looked at Mu Xiaomu solemnly and asked, “Why did you disappear all of a


    sudden? How did you get to Lu Jinye’s?


    Mu Xiaomu, however, simply replied with her innocent, dark, big eyes, staring straight into Mu Zhi’s, “I


    walked out of the door myself. I took a cab, but it didn’t cost me any money!”


    Everything just seemed bizarre.


    Mu Zhi knew that Mu Zhi was not crafty enough to scheme all these, particrly what the butler had


    depicted about her steering clear of all the surveince cameras, and showing up at Lu Jinye’s


    wedding.


    Granting that Lu Jinye’s wedding venue was not really far from Xu Se’s vi…


    It was still not a distance for a child to have the means to make a break of it.


    “Is there a problem, Mama?”


    Mu Xiaomu shook her head in confusion.


    Mu Zhi was convinced that Mu Xiaomu was lying. But when she looked into her innocent little eyes, she


    could not help but suppose that she was telling the truth.


    So, she repeated her question.


    Mu Xiaomu yawned as she repeated her answer.


    When Mu Zhi wanted to ask once more, Mu Xiaomu had already fallen asleep unintentionally without


    answering Mu Zhi!


    What a sleepyhead! Mu Zhi sighed helplessly.


    Mu Xiaomu took after Mu Zhi in quite a number of aspects. She had neat white teeth, fair skin, and


    eyshes so long that they looked like mini fans nted on her eyelids. She looked cuter than a barbie


    doll.

    Mu Zhi stared at Xiaomu for a moment, and covered her with a nket. Then she carried her into the


    bedroom.


    Perhaps Xiaomu was not lying, she might have missed out a few details that she did not realize herself.


    But in an adult’s perception, it felt off beat.


    Mu Zhi nced at Mu Xiaomu again, and slowly went out of the bedroom, closing the door gently after


    her.


    Nevertheless when she saw the time on the wall, she did not know what to do.


    Looks like Lu Jinye had not stayed in this vi ever since she moved out. But it was clean, as if


    someone was here constantly maintaining its hygiene.


    Although everything was still the same as when she left Lu Jinye, Mu Zhi still felt as if these were not


    her belongings. She felt ufortable staying there.


    She roamed around, and finally sat on the sofa. Then she turned on the television out of boredom.


    However, all the random channels she selected were broadcasting Lu Jinye on live!


    Lu Jinye was exining his absence at his and Xiao Qingqing’s wedding.


    Mu Zhi stopped switching channels. She paid attention to Lu Jinye on TV. There were a swarm of


    reporters whereas Lu Jinye was alone.


    But the aura Lu Jinye exuded brought the expected-to-end rowdy and messed up interview into order.


    It looked more like a speech from Lu Jinye rather than an interview.


    He calmly held the microphone, and dered to all the reporters, “I apologize to everyone I invited for


    not being able to witness my wedding with Miss Xiao Qingqing today. But, I have taken under


    advisement that us not getting married is a form of respect towards each other.”


    The audience got uproarious as soon as Lu Jinye finished his statement.


    However, perhaps because this was an unnned interview, none of the reporters put the screws to


    this matter.


    So Lu Jinye continued, “Perhaps it had something to do with my father’s past mistake in his love


    rtionship. But prevention is a type of cure, stopping a rtionship which both parties are not


    compatible is also an act of responsibility. If not, both parties will be holding up each other.”


    “That’s all I have to say.”


    As soon as he was done, he left.


    Without giving the reporters any time for questions.


    Mu Zhi sat and stared nkly into the TV. She was taken aback from Lu Jinye’s statement.


    Did Lu Jinye’s interview onlyst for a short three minutes? Or did she turn on the TV toote?


    She immediately went online to search for a recorded version, but it was also three minutes.


    Lu Jinye was absolutely courageous. Simply three minutes and without minding what would happen


    next? To what extent did he have to be so confident of himself to do so?


    This was not a meager situation! Xiao Qingqing was a public figure with millions of supporters.


    Nevertheless, Lu Jinye refused to further borate?


    Mu Zhi could not believe herself. She repeatedly searched for more videos to clear her doubt.


    But they were all the same.


    In addition, as she was searching online, Lu Jinye hade back without her realizing. Until he stood


    behind her and saw her studying his gossip, he said coldly, “You can ask me in person if you have any


    doubts. You do not need to go online to search for my videos.”


    Mu Zhi recouped herself from the surprise.
