Chapter 209
Falling For The Contract Bride
Chapter 209 Letâs Turn Ourselves In
Sitting on the sofa, Mu Zhiâs body was shaking uncontrollably.
How could this happen?
The death in this circumstance was different from the death she had experienced in the hospital.
She watched as that man died in front of her, and he died because of what she said.
Even if the man was not forced to death by her, being on the scene made Mu Zhi subconsciously think
that she was the murderer.
Mu Zhiâs brain was blank. She did not know what was in her mind at that moment.
After a while, Lu Jinye slowly walked out of the basement and stood in front of Mu Zhi.
Lu Jinye did not speak a word. Mu Zhi raised her head and looked up at Lu Jinye. She asked, âIs he
dead?â
Lu Jinye nodded his head.
Mu Zhiâs heart trembled.
She did not know anything about the law. She did not know what to do in a situation like this. She could
not even think properly.
After a while, she seemed to have found her voice and said, âLu Jinye, letâs call the police and Iâll turn
myself in.â
âMu Zhi, I can handle it for you.â
Lu Jinye said calmly. His gaze was firm.
How is he going to handle this?
Mu Zhi did not ask. She raised her head to look at Lu Jinye. She knew⦠Not only could Lu Jinye
handle such a thing, but he could also deal with almost everything that came his way.
Be it legal or illegal, he could make a clean break for Mu Zhi.
But⦠It was a human life after all.
It did not matter if this man had kidnapped her daughter, he would ultimately get the punishment he
deserved. Mu Zhi felt that his death was her responsibility since he committed suicide in front of her.
Mu Zhi told Lu Jinye her justification.
Lu Jinye kept silent.
âThen Iâll call the police.â
Lu Jinye said.
The guard behind Lu Jinye heard what he said and rushed over, âMr. Lu, let me be the scapegoat. The
Lu Family needs you.â
Suddenly, the situation had turned chaotic.
Mu Zhi used the excuse of going to the toilet and called the police.
She hoped that Lu Jinye would be safe.
Shen Mobo and Man Moer had been on the rooftop watching the twilight sky merge into total darkness.
It was a serene night until they heard the sirens of the police cars.
Man Moer glanced at Shen Mobo with a puzzled look while Shen Mobo looked extremely surprised.
Who called the police?!
At that moment, he was sure that Zhang Si had kicked the bucket.
But, Lu Jinye could easily cover it up when such an insignificant person died in his house!
In an instant, Shen Mobo stood up and hurriedly ran downstairs regardless of Man Moer.
He saw the body as soon as he arrived in the living room.
âWhatâs the matter? Why isnât this corpse dealt with? Itâs only a trivial matter!â
Shen Mobo said it without even asking what had happened.
At that time, Mu Zhi was still in grief while Lu Jinyeâs focus was entirely on Mu Zhi.
When the police arrived, Mu Zhi was asked to make a statement and Lu Jinye accompanied her.
For a moment, Shen Mobo was dumbfoundedâ¦
Shen Mobo did not think killing people mattered. It was something that could be resolved by spending
some money.
The plan he had earlier was within his control. It would have been a perfect plan if he had given a
sufficient amount of money to cover Zhang Siâs death to conceal the mastermind behind Mu Xiaomuâs
kidnapping incident.
But⦠Who would have thought things would turn out this way?
âWhat happened?â
When Shen Mobo left the rooftop, Man Moer followed suit. She asked when she saw there were only
him and a few guards left in the living room.
Before Shen Mobo could respond, his phone rang.
Xiao Qingqingâs name appeared on the screen.
âWhere are you? Why did you leave without saying goodbye?â
Xiao Qingqing sounded as if it was a matter of course.
Shen Mobo was already annoyed. He replied Xiao Qingqing straightforwardly, âAt Lu Jinyeâs mountain
villa.â
âSo youâre back to City A. Iâm back here too. Can you help me locate a person? My manager is
suddenly gone. He disappeared.â
Xiao Qingqing asked while packing her own things.
âWhere are you?â
Shen Mobo did not answer Xiao Qingqingâs question.
âAt home.â
âWait for me. Donât go anywhere!â
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Mobo hung up the phone. He left Lu Jinyeâs mountain villa in a
flurry and drove quickly towards Xiao Qingqingâs house.
When he arrived at Xiao Qingqingâs house, he was impatiently pressing the doorbell.
When Xiao Qingqing opened the door, she happened to have just taken a shower. She had a
refreshingly clean smell on her. There seemed to be a slow rhythm swaying languidly in the air.
âMy manager is gone. I canât get through him.â
âThereâs no need to look for him anymore!â
Shen Mobo strode directly into Xiao Qingqingâs house and sat on the sofa.
Xiao Qingqing did not seem to notice the changes in Shen Moboâs mood. She walked towards the
refrigerator and took a drink for Shen Mobo. She then asked, âWhy shouldnât I be looking for him? Has
he contacted you?â
âHe felt that your strategy to kidnap Mu Xiaomu was not feasible at all, so he asked someone to kidnap
Mu Xiaomu and threatened Mu Zhi to commit suicide. As a result, Lu Jinye found the person who
kidnapped Mu Xiaomu!â
âWhat?â
Xiao Qingqing was stunned. She raised her head in surprise and looked at Shen Mobo. âThatâs not
good. I have to find my manager soon! Otherwise, he would sell me out. This is bad! How can he be so
mindless?â
âXiao Qingqing, I think youâre the no-brainer!â
Shen Mobo stood up angrily and shouted at Xiao Qingqing.
At that moment, Xiao Qingqing was bewildered. She finally realized that something was wrong with
Shen Mobo.
âWhy are you shouting at me? Are you not going to help me solve the problem? Why are you yelling at
me instead?!â
âIâve forced the kidnapper to commit suicide.â
Shen Mobo said with a depressing mood.
His voice was dull.
On the other hand, Xiao Qingqingâs mood seemed to have lightened. She touched her chest and let out
a big sigh of relief, âFortunately, fortunately⦠It was a false alarm. Thank you. I was scared to death.â
Shen Mobo was even more agitated by her words.
He stomped towards Xiao Qingqing and looked at her condescendingly. âWhere is your humanity? Do
you know that Mu Zhi is being interrogated at the police station now?â
She smiled faintly and said, âItâs a blessing in disguise then.â
She looked at Shen Mobo happily.
