Chapter 221 Let’s Remarry

Lu Jinye bowed his head and looked at the woman on his lap solemnly.

His eyes were full of tenderness.

“What for?”

Lu Jinye had already worked out that Mu Zhi knew what had happened when she thanked him.

But he still wanted to ask.

Mu Zhi tiptoed and pecked onto Lu Jinye’s lips, saying, “Thank you, honey, for trusting me.”

She had been the topic of many gossip columns in the past, having different snapshots of her exposed

to the public. In the people’s eyes, she was probably already a worn and torn shoe.

However, not only did Lu Jinye sense the threat Lu Junnian posed towards her, most of the time he

chose to protect her.

That made Mu Zhi very touched.

Lu Jinye pulled Mu Zhi into his arms. He did not respond to Mu Zhi’s appraisal but gazed out of the

window.

Lu Jinye’s office was located at the most luxurious building in City A. The whole city’s glamour was

exhibited right before his eyes for him to admire at leisure.

At this moment, the whole of City A was enveloped in the night. The shining lights that gleamed

throughout the city were reflected by the river water at a distance. They seemed to be chasing the

sleepless souls in City A.

When Mu Zhi was Lu Jinye’s secretary, she had had unlimited access to this office.

They had had a myriad of thrilling sessions in this office when they were husband and wife. However…

This was the first time they calmly mooned over the city’s magnificent beauty.

City A was a busy and apathetic city.

Mu Zhi felt lost in this city in the past.

Now, she was beginning to adore and love this city.

Suddenly, Lu Jinye whispered into her ear, “Let’s remarry.”

Lu Jinye had said this in a composed manner and tone, but it made Mu Zhi’s heart skip a beat.

She raised her head and gawked at Lu Jinye.

Lu Jinye’s eyes never left the night view outside the window. It was as if he had never spoken at all.

Mu Zhi withdrew her stare.

And looked afar once more.

However, Lu Jinye held Mu Zhi’s hand and gently put a ring onto her finger.

Mu Zhi was certain right now.

It was not her delusion earlier on that Lu Jinye said he would like to marry her.

Mu Zhi gawked at Lu Jinye once more with her eyes wide. Lu Jinye repeated himself solemnly, “Let’s

get married.”

“Are you serious?”

Mu Zhi could not help but blink her eyes numerous times to check if she was awake as she stared at

Lu Jinye.

Why did he suddenly want to remarry her?

Although she felt that their relationship was developing in a positive direction.

But… she had never thought of marrying him.

“Is my proposal too bland, and not romantic enough for you?”

Lu Jinye continued, “Then I can propose again. I shall arrange a grand proposal for you tomorrow.”

As he said that, Lu Jinye picked up his phone and called Linda to instruct her.

Mu Zhi stopped Lu Jinye hastily. “No, no, I don’t mean that.”

They were already very ill-favored, so it wouldn’t be wise for her to be proposed to in public.

Lu Jinye pulled Mu Zhi into his arms quietly and told her, “Let’s hold our wedding soon, shall we?”

Lu Jinye asked Mu Zhi gently.

Mu Zhi was still in doubt, but she nodded her head subconsciously, agreeing to Lu Jinye, “Alright.”

Then, Lu Jinye pulled Mu Zhi towards the table. The both of them sat opposite to each other and

started eating their dinner in silence.

Mu Zhi looked particularly calm on the outside.

But her heart was racing wildly inside!

In the past, she would never have any second thoughts or deep considerations regarding their

relationship.

But now… She was unsure… Perhaps the meaning of being happy was vague.

When Mu Zhi and Lu Jinye were done with their dinner, they cleaned up and went downstairs.

After Mu Zhi got into the car, Lu Jinye did not head towards home. Instead, he headed towards a park.

The Fireflies Park.

As Lu Jinye stopped his car at The Fireflies Park, Mu Zhi got out of the car. When she saw its name,

she was astonished. The fireflies looked like fallen stars in the sky from afar. Their gleaming lights that

shuttled in the dark were exceptionally dazzling.

The cloudy moonlit sky adorned the sky with a calm, serene charm.

“This type of starry sky might be a little far from reality.”

Lu Jinye explained.

Mu Zhi was very contented with it. She smiled as she looked at Lu Jinye, “But it’s good enough for me.”

Mu Zhi was deeply moved as she brought her lips close to Lu Jinye’s.

She hugged Lu Jinye. Before they could snuggle up closer to each other, they heard the sound of a car

engine. That car stopped not far away from them.

“Wow, this place is really fine. No wonder Lu Jinye wanted me to purchase this park out of nowhere.

So, it had fireflies!”

Xu Se walked towards them as he spoke.

He even exclaimed, how enjoyable it must be if they were to camp here in the wilderness and make

love under the stars.

“It’s alright, Miss Mu. You do not have to feel shy. You may continue with your kissing.”

Mu Zhi was startled by Xu Se’s appearance. In addition to her act just now, she was extremely

embarrassed.

She even prayed in silence so Xu Se wouldn’t notice her.

Nevertheless… Xu Se greeted her.

Mu Zhi blushed to the roots of her hair.

She hid behind Lu Jinye and did not respond to Xu Se.

Xu Se handed a tent to Lu Jinye, then admired both of them in envy, “I was having a date earlier on,

and had to leave her behind so I could send you a tent. Could I have the honor to grace your tent with

my presence for a short while later on?”

“You may leave.”

Lu Jinye completely ignored Xu Se’s words. He ordered as he grabbed the tent from Xu Se’s hand.

“What? I… I just drove a long distance to come here! Do you have any idea how long the drive was…”

Before Xu Se could finish his words, Lu Jinye had already held Mu Zhi’s hand and brought her for a

stroll in the depths of the park.

Mu Zhi looked at Lu Jinye, confused, “Did Xu Se say that you purchased this park?”

“Yeah.”

“Despite the desolation of this devastated place that has only a small patch of roses here right now, I

believe that after a simple facelift, it will become a fine park. We shall stargaze tonight, and after this, I

shall slowly improvise this place.”

“What designs do you have in mind?”

“I’ll leave that to you to decide.”

Lu Jinye replied tenderly.

“Then we shall plant seasonal flowers and red fruits. In spring, we can have flower gazing; in summer,

we can listen to cicadas making their music; in autumn, we can pluck fruits; and in winter, we can

admire the snow.”

Mu Zhi felt that it was a boring proposal as she spoke.

She didn’t expect Lu Jinye to nod and agree with her, “Okay.”
