Chapter 278
Falling For The Contract Bride
Chapter 278 Husband and Wife
After Ann had introduced herself, the woman stretched out her hand and introduced herself in a friendly
manner, âHello, my name is Yan Shu.â
The woman wore a windbreaker and underneath it, she seemed to be wearing her work clothes in
white. âAre you a doctor?â Ann asked. Yan Shu replied reservedly, âYes. Iâm doing my housemanship at
the First Hospital. Iâm actually a medical houseman. Letâs go.â
As she said that, she took over the luggage. When they were walking towards the exit, Yan Shu
suddenly realized that Ericâs eyes were glaring on the airportâs big screen.
The manâs eyes were cold and distant. That alone had kept him aloof and apart from the crowd.
When they noticed Ericâs gaze, both Ann and Yan Shu looked in the same direction.
After seeing that Eric was staring at Lu Jinye, Yan Shu smiled and explained, âThis is Lu Jinye, Mr. Lu.
He is the dream lover and the home-wrecker of all the women of City A.â
âHome-wreckerâ¦â
Ann could not resist laughing at the nickname she gave to Lu Jinye.
âYes, because Mr. Lu is already married to Xiao Qingqing, the once smashing star. Many people dream
of marrying Mr. Lu but since he is already married, the only option left is to let him be the home
wrecker.â
Yan Shu explained with a grin on her face.
âBy the way, do you have a Chinese name? I find it difficult to call you Ann. Do you mind if I give you a
Chinese name?â
Yan Shu turned around and looked at Ann seriously. Ann shook her head and said, âNo.â
Yan Shu frowned and thought for a moment. She then suggested, âShan Cha, Chuan Bei, Mu Xiang,
Yu Zhu, Mu Zhi, Bai Zhi, Bai Kou, Bai He, Zhu Sha, Lian Qiao, Ban Xia⦠Choose one.â
Hearing these strange-sounding names, Ann could not help laughing.
âWhat are they? Why do they sound so strange?â
âThese are the pinyin of the Chinese herbals. I think it is suitable for a personâs name. You may choose
oneâ¦â
âMuâ¦â Ann could not remember everything Yan Shu had said. However, there was one name that
stood out, and it sounded familiar to her.
But she could not recall the full name.
âBai Zhi! Do you also think that this name sounds good? From today onwards, I will call you Bai Zhi. If
you like it, you may continue using this name. If you donât, just forget about it.â
âWait. The one before that, Mu something? I find it strangely familiar.â
âMu Zhi?â
Yan Shu was stunned.
After giving it a thought, she said, âYou can be called Mu Zhi if you want. Itâs a really nice name.â
She pointed to the figure of Lu Jinye, who was appearing on the screen and said, âRumor has it that Lu
Jinyeâs lover was named Mu Zhi and she died in an accident. I think this name might not be
auspicious.â
âI choose the name Mu Zhi.â
Ann frowned and said, âBe it auspicious or not, I donât care. Please take us to the hotel first. I want to
get to know this city.â
âOkay.â
After Yan Shu finished speaking, she then led the way to the city.
Ann, also known as Mu Zhi, had been living in the States and Switzerland. She would travel to many
places whenever she was free. However, her husband, Xie Xiu often had to travel to City A for work,
and she had never been allowed to come to City A.
She sometimes wondered why Xie Xiu was always so discreet. It could be that he had a mistress in
City A.
But from the way Xie Xiu treated her, she knew that Xie Xiu had no other woman.
There were two reasons she came to City A. First, she wanted to explore the mysterious city Xie Xiu
would not let her come to, and second, Xie Xiuâs birthday was in ten days, so she wanted to prepare a
birthday surprise for Xie Xiu.
After arranging a place for âMu Zhiâ to stay, Yan Shu told Mu Zhi, âMu Zhi, if you need anything, just let
me know. The city tour starts tomorrow.â
âOkay.â
Mu Zhi said to Yan Shu while coaxing Eric to take a shower.
Yan Shu was her local tour guide.
âThen Iâll leave now.â
After making sure Mu Zhi had everything she needed, Yan Shu was ready to leave.
When Yan Shu was about to close the door, Mu Zhi suddenly stopped Yan Shu and asked, âYou
mentioned that you are a medical houseman in the First Hospital. I wonder if the hospital provides any
treatment for psychological disorders?â
âOur hospital is the best hospital in the country, and there are several professional doctors who are in
the world-class rank. But I think our psychologists are not ranked very high.â
âDo you mind telling me what is your psychological disorder?â
Yan Shu looked at Mu Zhi and asked.
Mu Zhi seemed hesitant to tell, so she asked Yan Shu, âIs there any female doctor? Can you make an
appointment for me?â
Mu Zhi asked embarrassedly.
âOf course I can. How about tonight? So that our tour will not be interrupted tomorrow.â
âSure thing.â
Mu Zhi did not ask further and happily sent Yan Shu away.
Mu Zhi did not expect Yan Shu to make an appointment so quickly. In a matter of minutes, she received
an appointment confirmation text from Yan Shu. Mu Zhi quickly put on her coat and said to Eric, âWait
for mommy in the hotel. I will come back as soon as possible.â
Eric was sitting in front of the computer staring at a string of numbers that even Mu Zhi could not
understand. He replied without turning his head, âOkay, go mom.â
After getting a reply from Eric, Mu Zhi left the place hurriedly.
It was difficult for Mu Zhi to explain her problem. Xie Xiu had referred her to many psychiatrists in the
States but to no avail.
This time, she needed to find a solution to her problem.
Because she had always wanted to surprise Xie Xiu.
Since they were married, they should be doing things that husband and wife would do.
Mu Zhi took a cab to the First Hospital, and then she met with the psychiatrist recommended by Yan
Shu.
The psychiatrist looked mature. She looked as if she had had a lot of experience in the field.
She sat in front of Mu Zhi and said to her, âRelax. Donât be nervous. Tell me your story.â
âI suffered from a serious illness, and then I lost most of my memory. But that didnât affect my life. After
giving birth to my son, every time I try to be intimate with my husband, Iâd feel nervous and that causes
muscle cramps.â
Mu Zhi had described these symptoms to other doctors before and she had learned to adjust her
mindset towards the matter.
So she could retell her issues comfortably.
