Chapter 200 Flood Their Screens With Our Love

Lu Jinye was rather emotional when he said those words!

Because… He did not expect that Mu Zhi would say such a thing for him!

Although Mu Zhi used to stay by his side, both of them had never displayed their emotions to each

other. But even if that was the case, Lu Jinye understood Mu Zhi.

The woman was upstanding, unyielding, and forgiving. Out of everything, she valued justice and

protection.

Judging by their identities, he was undoubtedly the source of all the complicated relationships.

The Mu Zhi in the past would not hesitate before rejecting him. However, Mu Zhi had just told him to

throw her under the bus to protect himself.

Lu Jinye wouldn’t think about it, but he was moved nonetheless.

He stretched out for arms to gather Mu Zhi into his embrace and placed a kiss on her forehead. “When

does Lu Jinye ever need a woman to stand up for him?” He said solemnly, “Don’t you worry about

these.”

Despite the lack of comforting words in his remark, Mu Zhi could feel an indescribable sense of

assurance.

She looked up at Lu Jinye, and nodded with a smile, “Alright, let’s eat, the dishes are getting cold.”

Lu Jinye looked back at her before sitting down by the dining table and had dinner with Mu Zhi.

It was a quiet and peaceful dinner. Mu Zhi and Lu Jinye both had a strong character. They would not

allow the floating rumors to affect their mood.

To her… The fly in the ointment was that Xiao Qingqing had conceived Lu Jinye’s child. With that said,

Mu Zhi did not believe that a child should be what bound two people together in marriage.

She figured that she would generously allow Lu Jinye to provide for that child to support a healthy

upbringing.

Mu Zhi felt slightly more at peace with herself after secretly making up her mind.

It was only around nine at night after their dinner. The city was hustling and bustling in the lively

nightlife.

Lu Jinye walked up to the window and gazed at the captivating night scenery, then said to Mu Zhi,

“Let’s go, let me bring you for a fun.”

Mu Zhi stared at Lu Jinye in shock, “Haven’t I just told you that we just got caught being together?

Rumors are currently spreading widely. If we leave home together, there will be numerous paparazzi

waiting for us.”

But Lu Jinye merely raised his eyes and peered at Mu Zhi with his strikingly deep-set eyes, “So, are

you scared?”

Mu Zhi looked back at Lu Jinye unwaveringly upon hearing his remark, “If you don’t mind, why would I

be scared?”

Mu Zhi had never been scared when she was around Lu Jinye.

He had his eyes locked at the woman before him. Under the dimly lit environment, her glittering eyes

became even more distinct and admirable.

Then, he approached the clothes tree and grabbed a coat for Mu Zhi, then grabbed another one for

himself. The both of them fixed their appearances, changed out their home slippers, and headed out

the door together.

Lu Jinye did not bother driving.

There was no paparazzo around his villa. The residential area would not allow strangers to into their

compound.

Mu Zhi held Lu Jinye’s hand. She could feel the warmth that was radiated from his palm. She squeezed

his hand, allowing his thick palm to envelop her delicate hand completely.

The two of them were strolling on the streets. Hanging above their heads was the elegant moonlight,

while their surrounding was boasted with glamorous street lights. Walking next to Lu Jinye, Mu Zhi

could not help but doubt the realness of the bliss she was immersed in.

At the same time, she felt extraordinarily peaceful.

“Lu Jinye, it’s the first time we take a stroll together.”

The fact suddenly dawned on Mu Zhi and she told Lu Jinye.

He did not turn to look at her. Instead, he gradually tilted his head upwards to glance at the moon, “Is

that so? What were we doing during those years when we were married?”

Lu Jinye seemed to have forgotten what they were like in the past.

Regardless, he could only feel that time passed by quickly when he was with her.

Mu Zhi pondered momentarily, then said, “We were busy interacting physically, not emotionally.”

Lu Jinye sniggered at the sound of her remarks. He lowered his head to look at her, “Then it must have

been because you didn’t display your emotional side, and in contrast, all I could see was your salivating

physical features.”

True enough… At the time, Mu Zhi was busy playing the role of an obsequious wife who looked more

like a bimbo than a doctor. Most of their memories were made up of what they did on the bed.

They hardly spoke about their feelings.

Lu Jinye was convinced that he would never fall in love again.

And so did Mu Zhi.

However… Little did they know that they would develop into what they were today.

Mu Zhi leaped forward to stand in Lu Jinye’s way out of the blue. She stared at Lu Jinye intently. “Lu

Jinye, after everything settles down, would you marry me once more?”

Was that considered a proposal or a coercion?

Lu Jinye frowned at Mu Zhi as he paused his footsteps.

He contemplated for a moment.

But said nothing.

Mu Zhi waited for a while before blurting out, “Forget about it. Did you not have plans to marry me

again?”

Lu Jinye proclaimed solemnly, “If I am to marry you again, I will give you the wedding of the century.”

“Why must you always be in the limelight?”

Mu Zhi pursed her lips.

“Because the previous wedding I gave you was eye-soring.”

Following that, Mu Zhi intended to pursue further, but Lu Jinye had already dialed a number on his

phone. Thus, Mu Zhi swallowed what words she had on the tip of her tongue.

They continued strolling on the streets.

After returning home, Mu Zhi went on to have a great night’s sleep. When she woke up the next

morning… She found out that she made the headlines once again.

Mu Zhi was speechless. They were merely holding hands, but it yielded a massive backlash over the

internet.

Mu Zhi could only stay patient.

But the contrast between the vast amounts of criticisms she received on the internet and her seemingly

ordinary life intrigued her. She figured it might have been due to the proficiency of Lu Jinye’s security

detail, and that she had been traveling around safely in his car. Thus far, she had never been

ambushed by a reporter, questioning her about stealing someone else’s husband.

Most of the backlashes she received were on the internet.

Mu Zhi was quite worried in the beginning.

She was remorseful.

And conflicted.

But after getting caught on camera every time she appeared in the public alongside Lu Jinye, Mu Zhi

eventually started to accept her fate.

There were even reporters who requested to interview her. But all Mu Zhi could say was, “I believe

everyone has the right to choose the love of their lives.”

Then, she would comment no further.

But Lu Jinye was different. He appeared to be increasingly delighted to see himself making the

headlines every day.

He would sometimes tell Mu Zhi to read the news to him.

Finally, there was one day when Mu Zhi could no longer hold her curiosity. She asked Lu Jinye, “Aren’t

you worried at all?”

Lu Jinye laughed softly and told her, “I’m certain that the love between us is true, but true love isn’t

common in the world. So, for the people who can’t bear to see us together, I hope to flood their screens

with our love!”

“If a man couldn’t openly admit his affection for the love of his life, what kind of man is he?”
