Chapter 137 Mu Zhi, Return To Me

Mu Zhi gawked at Lu Jinye in astonishment, her eyes flooded with disbelief.

Was Lu Jinye being… Angry right now?

What gave him the right to be mad?!

Besides, she was started to be confused by Lu Jinye. The Lu Jinye she knew was abstinent, calm, and

difficult to figure. Throughout almost three years of the relationship, she had never witnessed Lu Jinye

losing control of his emotions due to reasons outside of work!

But was Lu Jinye lashing out for no reason now?!

Mu Zhi studied Lu Jinye’s face. In his eyes, she was pretending to be innocent! The more she behaved

like so, the more unwilling he was to let her go.

He stretched out both arms, and pinned Mu Zhi against the wall, forcing her to examine him thoroughly.

“If you continue to push it, I’m going to have to call Miss Xiao, to open her eyes to the true colors of

you, Mr. Lu!”

“What true colors?”

Lu Jinye raised the corner of his lips to let out an ambiguous smile.

He bent forward to close into Mu Zhi. His pupils which resembled a pair of obsidian were locked onto

her.

Meanwhile, Mu Zhi’s pupils were amber in color. His menacing and malicious reflection could be seen

on her glittering eyes!

“Tell me, what are my true colors?”

Lu Jinye intentionally breathed those words into Mu Zhi’s ear.

Mu Zhi could feel a shock of electricity rapidly traveling across her body. That sensation could not be

put into words.

At the end of the day, Lu Jinye seemed to have woken up the lust that was quietly hibernating deep

inside each of her cells.

She tilted her head upwards to look at Lu Jinye, involuntarily tried to shuffle back to keep a distance

from him. But the further she went, the narrower the gap between them was. He was gradually rubbing

onto her.

Every small backward step she took, he would take a huge leap forward.

Mu Zhi was rather pink in the face. Her voice became sheepish when she started speaking again,

“Your true colors are none of my business, so I won’t judge you.”

Mu Zhi suppressed all expectations she had for Lu Jinye. She refused to allow herself to have any form

of expectations from Lu Jinye.

She told herself that she must wake up!

She should have cut ties with Lu Jinye a long time ago…

Who was she anyway?

She was merely an ex-wife who married Lu Jinye without any love. Having love between them was

nothing short of a miracle to her!

None of your business? Her words had infuriated Lu Jinye.

He lifted her off the ground right away, placed her onto the bed, and pinned her down.

Staring into her eyes, he questioned, “How is it none of your business?”

“Please show some respect, Mr. Lu.”

Mu Zhi crossed her arms and held them against Lu Jinye’s chest, attempting to shield herself from his

advancement.

However, Lu Jinye’s eyes were overwhelmed with fury at this point.

“Are you that eager to have no association with me?”

Lu Jinye appeared to have ignored Mu Zhi’s remark, continuing to interrogate her.

But he did not wait for Mu Zhi’s response between landing a kiss on her lips. The soft and chilly

sensation seemed to be paradoxically a source of ignition to his blazing desires.

The Lu Jinye she knew definitely wouldn’t do this in the past. Even he felt that his emotions were over

the top.

He was trampling her, punishing her with violent kisses. Her lips had gone red from the scuffling,

making her even more captivating.

Noticing that he might be hurting her, Lu Jinye finally let Mu Zhi go.

Mu Zhi’s struggle was to no avail. Despite her rational mind’s exhortation, the cravings depicted in her

eyes, woken up by Lu Jinye’s actions, had given her away.

Lu Jinye gazed at Mu Zhi, saying, “Qingqing was kidnapped that night.”

Xiao Qingqing was kidnapped, so was she.

So, Lu Jinye naturally chose to go to Xiao Qingqing’s rescue.

Mu Zhi could certainly sympathize with him. She chuckled softly, “Mr. Lu, there’s no need to explain

yourself, I don’t need to hear that. It is only normal for you to save Miss Xiao.”

Wasn’t the answer obvious enough that who was the more important one?

Mu Zhi had long acknowledged that. She did not need constant reminders from Lu Jinye that Xiao

Qingqing was the love of his life, and he must save her!

“No, listen, Xiao Qingqing’s situation was more urgent.”

Lu Jinye’s tone became much calmer. He appeared to be eager to make himself clear.

However, Mu Zhi did not see that at all. She took his words out of context, and twisted his explanation,

“From the psychological point of view, one would associate the more important individual to greater

threats.”

Mu Zhi’s tone was insouciant, yet it almost drove Lu Jinye mad.

He continued to stare at her. The indifference in her eyes was infuriating!

“Mu Zhi! I’ve decided not to be a good father! I’m also forgetting the idea of being a responsible man!”

Lu Jinye gulped and contemplated for a long moment before blurting out those words.

But Mu Zhi had blocked out his words as a self-defense mechanism. She refused to listen to him.

Without thinking twice, she uttered, “Mr. Lu, I have nothing to do with your decision to be a good father,

after all, you’re not the father of my child. Similarly, whether or not you’d like to be a responsible

husband is none of my business too, since you are not my husband!”

Lu Jinye clenched his fists fiercely, fuming as he listened to her remarks!

When did he ever have to say these words to a woman?

And when he did for the first time, the woman displayed absolute listlessness!

In the past, women would swamp him. He never needed to trouble himself with how women think. He

would do whatever pleased him, and the upkeep of their relationships would be taken care of by the

ladies!

Contrary to his customs! This ungrateful woman had been refuting him profusely!

What can he say?

Coaxing women was not his strong suit at all!

“Mu Zhi, what do you want?”

Lu Jinye decided to skip the idea of enticing her. He forwent his plans to explain himself. But Mu Zhi

remained underneath him. He allowed no room for escape as he questioned her.

“I don’t want anything other than keeping a safe distance with you, Mr. Lu.”

“Mu Zhi… Come back to me!”

“No, thank you! I have zero intention to return to you. You have Miss Xiao by your side!”

Mu Zhi did not even process what Lu Jinye said before responding peevishly.

However, as soon as the words escaped her lips, she was astonished… She gaped her eyes at Lu

Jinye in disbelief, asking reluctantly, “What did you say?”

“Come back to me.”

Lu Jinye’s eyes screamed affirmation.

He left her wordless. She had no clue what to say to Lu Jinye anymore.

Once again, Lu Jinye leaned in for a kiss, except this time, the anxiousness and violence were

replaced by tenderness and gentleness…

Earlier, he received Xiao Qingqing’s naked photo from a Young Master Shen.

Lu Jinye knew that man. He was the man who almost raped Xiao Qingqing. He was her nightmare.

He thought he could give Mu Zhi’s location to his gang, and let them take care of Mu Zhi.

But nobody knew what hiccup there was in the process that led to Mu Zhi covered in blood by the time

she was sent to the hospital!

Lu Jinye was preoccupied. He could not leave.

Meanwhile, Mu Zhi was stunned. She did not manage to react when Lu Jinye’s kiss fell onto her.

Lu Jinye then spontaneously progressed to the next stage, reaching out to undo her top.

While she could not retaliate as her arms were restricted… She could only allow him to do as he

wished.
