Chapter 165 I Shall Wait for You at Tangchao Hotel Tonight

Just as Mu Zhi strode towards Lu Jinye’s car and saw him behind the wheel, she lifted her wrist and

checked the time.

Lu Jinye should be having his wedding right now…

Why did he turn up here?

Mu Zhi gaped at Lu Jinye incredulously as the rear door opened. Mu Xiaomu jumped down from the

car and buried her head into Mu Zhi’s lap, “Mama, I miss you.”

Mu Zhi was too shocked. She grabbed Mu Zhi’s head and held it tightly too for a moment.

Whereas Lu Jinye just sat in his car, showing no intention to get down from it.

A distance away… Xu Se wanted to egg on at first, but just as he had taken a step forward, he was

stopped by Jian Xiaoning.

Jian Xiaoning had grabbed his hand and yanked him into the room.

Leaving Mu Xiaomu, Mu Zhi and Lu Jinye in the yard.

However, Lu Jinye continued to stay in his car while Mu Zhi and Mu Xiaomu were outside the car.

After Mu Zhi comforted Mu Xiaomu for a bit, she gathered sight of Lu Jinye. Lu Jinye put down the car

window as she strode towards him.

Mu Zhi told Lu Jinye, “Thank you for sending Mu Xiaomu back. There’s actually no need for you to do it

yourself though. It must have interrupted your wedding.”

Lu Jinye threw a provocative look at Mu Zhi, raised the corner of his lips slightly, and teased, “How do

you plan to compensate me then?”

Mu Zhi was taken aback for a moment.

Why did Lu Jinye suddenly flirt with her?

She thought she had misheard him.

Until Lu Jinye repeated his question, “How do you plan to compensate me then?”

Thereupon did Mu Zhi come round and told Lu Jinye, “Hurry to the wedding venue, you might still be in

time…”

Before she could finish her words, Lu Jinye cut her short, and commanded her, “Get in!”

Mu Zhi was startled.

Lu Jinye continued, “Get into the car right now. I have something important to tell you.”

But what important thing could they have?

Mu Zhi batted her eyelids gently and told Lu Jinye, “Just say what you want here.”

Lu Jinye knitted his eyebrows, “I don’t like to discuss my personal matters at others’ places.”

His answer made Mu Zhi even more confused.

However, Mu Xiaomu was very compliant towards Lu Jinye. She got into the car without any hesitation

as soon as Lu Jinye requested her to.

Making Mu Zhi feel awkward.

Should she get in?

Or should she not?

After contemplating for so long, she could only get in the car!

After Mu Zhi got into the car, Lu Jinye turned the engine on and took off.

Mu Zhi had not a clue where Lu Jinye planned to bring her to. She tried asking him on the way, but he

did not answer her.

Until the view out of the window looked familiar, it struck a note to Mu Zhi that Lu Jinye was bringing

them to the villa they stayed in the past.

He stopped the car, and got down.

Then he told Mu Zhi, “I did not change the password. Bring Mu Xiaomu in and wait for me. I have to

straighten out matters regarding my wedding. I will come back when I am done.”

“What do you mean?”

Mu Zhi was simply mind-blown about what Lu Jinye wanted to express or what he had in his mind for

further action.

However, Lu Jinye had such a strong presence that Mu Zhi could not refuse but agree with him.

Furthermore, she was positive that it will not do her any good if she disobeyed him.

She could only comply with his orders. She brought Mu Xiaomu down from the car into the villa. The

door opened when she keyed in the old password.

When she looked back, Lu Jinye was long gone.

…

At the wedding venue.

Xiao Qingqing sat in the bridal room with the door closed. She knew that the wedding would not go on,

but she still put on her wedding gown.

The reporters outside were starting to get impatient, bombarding questions about Lu Jinye’s absence.

Didn’t Xiao Qingqing and Lu Jinye claimed to be truly, madly, deeply in love with each other previously?

If Lu Jinye had the heart to leave his bride in the cold out of the blue, did this indicate that he had come

to a sudden realization that he might be in love with someone else?

Moreover, the paparazzi had brought Mu Zhi up too.

She refused to face these questions, so she hid in the bridal room.

The relentless reporters could just fiddle around with their sneaking suspicions.

Shen Mobo seemed to act like Xiao Qingqing’s manager instead. He addressed the media members

with a few words, clarifying that this was all but a misunderstanding.

Xiao Qingqing knew these were just excuses.

She still could not believe that Lu Jinye would leave her so abruptly!

She tried to call him to come back once, but he was stopped by Mu Xiaomu right at the doorstep!

“Great!”

Xiao Qingqing gripped her glass so hard that it shattered into pieces. This physical pain of her cut

wounds was incomparable to the heartbreak she was experiencing now.

If Lu Jinye was to be so cold-blooded, she could be like that too!

Didn’t Mu Zhi enjoy stealing other’s beloved? She shall let her have a taste of her own medicine so

she’ll know how it feels like to lose someone precious to her!

Xiao Qingqing picked up her phone and called Shen Mobo.

Even though they were merely separated by a door, Xiao Qingqing still chose to call him.

“Is there any way to contact the hospital Mu Zhi’s mother is in right now? Find a way to make her

dead!”

Shen Mobo was stunned by Xiao Qingqing’s demand.

He immediately tried to calm her down, “Don’t act rashly, Qingqing!”

“I’m only asking you if you have any means to do so! Don’t try to talk me out of it!”

Xiao Qingqing was out of control. She was shouting as she spoke.

Shen Mobo was mum for a few minutes. Before he had any chance to think, Xiao Qingqing cut him off,

“Alright, I understand!”

Then, she hung up.

Shen Mobo did not manage to explain himself. When he tried to return her call, the line was already

engaged.

Xiao Qingqing had never thought she would make this phone call… She wouldn’t if she had the choice.

The call was answered in just two rings.

The voice at the other end of the phone was cold and deep, “What’s the matter?”

“Is the promise you made me in the past still standing?”

“What promise?”

The man asked her back sinisterly, like a triumphant Satan that had the whole hell in his hands.

“You were willing to do anything for me.”

“For what in exchange?”

“One night in bed with me.”

Xiao Qingqing was startlingly calm when she said this.

As if it was not a big deal at all.

“What do you need me to do?”

The man’s voice was low and composed, making him even more intimidating.

“Help me find out which hospital Mu Zhi’s mother is in, and conjure a medical malpractice for her so

she won’t wake up ever again.”

“Deal!”

After he agreed to Xiao Qingqing’s terms, he gave her an address, “I shall wait for you at Tangchao

Hotel tonight.”

Lu Jinye coincidentally pushed the door open when the call ended. He stood at the doorway, looking at

Xiao Qingqing as she hung up the call.
