Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 209

Chapter 209 Let’s Turn Ourselves In

Sitting on the sofa, Mu Zhi’s 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 thinkthat she was the murderer.

Mu Zhi’s 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, “Is hedead?”

Lu Jinye nodded his head.

Mu Zhi’s heart trembled.

She did not know anything about the law. She did not know what to do in a situation like this. She couldnot even think properly.

After a while, she seemed to have found her voice and said, “Lu Jinye, let’s call the police and I’ll turnmyself in.”

“Mu Zhi, I can handle it for you.”

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 Jinyehandle 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 hedeserved. 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.

“Then I’ll call the police.”

Lu Jinye said.

The guard behind Lu Jinye heard what he said and rushed over, “Mr. Lu, let me be the scapegoat. TheLu Family needs you.”

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.

“What’s the matter? Why isn’t this corpse dealt with? It’s only a trivial matter!”

Shen Mobo said it without even asking what had happened.

At that time, Mu Zhi was still in grief while Lu Jinye’s 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 dumbfounded…

Shen Mobo did not think killing people mattered. It was something that could be resolved by spendingsome money.

The plan he had earlier was within his control. It would have been a perfect plan if he had given asufficient amount of money to cover Zhang Si’s death to conceal the mastermind behind Mu Xiaomu’skidnapping incident.

But… Who would have thought things would turn out this way?

“What happened?”

When Shen Mobo left the rooftop, Man Moer followed suit. She asked when she saw there were onlyhim and a few guards left in the living room.

Before Shen Mobo could respond, his phone rang.

Xiao Qingqing’s name appeared on the screen.

“Where are you? Why did you leave without saying goodbye?”

Xiao Qingqing sounded as if it was a matter of course.

Shen Mobo was already annoyed. He replied Xiao Qingqing straightforwardly, “At Lu Jinye’s mountainvilla.”

“So you’re back to City A. I’m back here too. Can you help me locate a person? My manager issuddenly gone. He disappeared.”

Xiao Qingqing asked while packing her own things.

“Where are you?”

Shen Mobo did not answer Xiao Qingqing’s question.

“At home.”

“Wait for me. Don’t go anywhere!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Mobo hung up the phone. He left Lu Jinye’s mountain villa in aflurry and drove quickly towards Xiao Qingqing’s house.

When he arrived at Xiao Qingqing’s house, he was impatiently pressing the doorbell.

When Xiao Qingqing opened the door, she happened to have just taken a shower. She had arefreshingly clean smell on her. There seemed to be a slow rhythm swaying languidly in the air.

“My manager is gone. I can’t get through him.”

“There’s no need to look for him anymore!”

Shen Mobo strode directly into Xiao Qingqing’s house and sat on the sofa.

Xiao Qingqing did not seem to notice the changes in Shen Mobo’s mood. She walked towards therefrigerator and took a drink for Shen Mobo. She then asked, “Why shouldn’t I be looking for him? Hashe contacted you?”

“He felt that your strategy to kidnap Mu Xiaomu was not feasible at all, so he asked someone to kidnapMu Xiaomu and threatened Mu Zhi to commit suicide. As a result, Lu Jinye found the person whokidnapped Mu Xiaomu!”

“What?”

Xiao Qingqing was stunned. She raised her head in surprise and looked at Shen Mobo. “That’s notgood. I have to replace my manager soon! Otherwise, he would sell me out. This is bad! How can he be somindless?”

“Xiao Qingqing, I think you’re the no-brainer!”

Shen Mobo stood up angrily and shouted at Xiao Qingqing.

At that moment, Xiao Qingqing was bewildered. She finally realized that something was wrong withShen Mobo.

“Why are you shouting at me? Are you not going to help me solve the problem? Why are you yelling atme instead?!”

“I’ve forced the kidnapper to commit suicide.”

Shen Mobo said with a depressing mood.

His voice was dull.

On the other hand, Xiao Qingqing’s mood seemed to have lightened. She touched her chest and let outa big sigh of relief, “Fortunately, fortunately… It was a false alarm. Thank you. I was scared to death.”

Shen Mobo was even more agitated by her words.

He stomped towards Xiao Qingqing and looked at her condescendingly. “Where is your humanity? Doyou know that Mu Zhi is being interrogated at the police station now?”

She smiled faintly and said, “It’s a blessing in disguise then.”

She looked at Shen Mobo happily.
