Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 270

Chapter 270 Don’t Touch Me!

That worried and sad pair of eyes was Lu Jinye’s.

Lu Jinye clenched his fists tightly as his eyes followed the panicked little woman on the stage since she appeared on it.

Ever since Mu Zhi got together with Lu Jinye, Lu Jinye had protected her well and had never put her in such a dangerous situation.

Although Lu Jinye knew that there were many dangerous sides in this world, he had never exposed Mu Zhi to any knowledge of these dangerous sides. The more he saw Mu Zhi panic on stage, the more remorseful Lu Jinye felt.

It was all his fault. He was at fault for not taking care of Mu Zhi well enough that she got lost, allowing the bad guys to manipulate her.

“Is there any way to make them start quickly? I want to take Mu Zhi away now!”

Lu Jinye glanced at Mo Fei, who was next to him impatiently and asked angrily.

Mo Fei sighed helplessly and replied to Lu Jinye, “Don’t be snappy, these are not within my control. The big guys owning these underground casinos are not people whom I can afford to offend. Although I know that you, Lu Jinye, are great, it is best not to get to their bad side.”

Lu Jinye gawked at Mo Fei, hinting at him to get straight to the point.

Mo Fei saw Lu Jinye’s fury at once. He did not dare to joke further. He could only sigh at Lu Jinye and explain, “The people behind these casinos are cruel. They do not have the so-called rules of the world, so we can’t act rashly!”

“If you weren’t careful, you won’t be able to save Mu Zhi at all.”

Lu Jinye’s clenched his fist tightly.

Just then, a host went up on stage. The real auction has begun.

Woman No. 1 was the first to go.

Hearing the host’s voice, Mu Zhi couldn’t help shaking.

She gritted her teeth tightly. Since God had helped her keep her life up to this extent, she must find a way to escape.

She couldn’t give up, nor be afraid! She must go back!

Mu Zhi secretly cheered for herself.

“Our bid starts now.”

The host gave everyone a quick shout.

The audience began to bid.

The auction started at 50 million, and the bid rose by tens of millions.

The bids were an arm and a leg. It remained as a puzzle what the bidders bought these women for.

When Mu Zhi heard the bidding, she got increasingly frightened. At last, the first woman was sold for 90 million.

Mu Zhi didn’t know what happened when the woman’s blindfold was taken off. She could only hear some rustling sounds and the sound of the woman being forcibly taken away.

In Mu Zhi’s impression, the first woman had been willing to sell herself. She acted like a person who had accepted her fate and was ready to live by this rule.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been the first to line up and pick her clothes, nor would she be the first to actively tip the photographer.

However, why did she still struggle when she was brought away after the auction?

Mu Zhi couldn’t untie her blindfold to watch. She didn’t know what was going on.

She was so scared!

When the second place was auctioned, Mu Zhi’s hearing started to become extremely sensitive.

Third place…

Fourth place…

The fifth place…

Sixth place…

Mu Zhi’s heart became increasingly desolated as the ones before her got auctioned off one by one.

Six people had been auctioned off, and none exhaled in relief when they were taken away.

Did that mean that they were fated to have a bleak future as well?

At this time, the host shouted out for the start of the seventh place’s auction.

Mu Zhi held her breath.

Mu Zhi remembered that the seventh place was the woman who conversed with her.

Just after she was auctioned off, suddenly, Mu Zhi heard a cry, and people shouting about catching her and not letting her die. Then, there was a crashing sound.

Immediately afterward, someone said to take her away and dispose of her.

Mu Zhi’s heart sank.

The interspersing of these voices had made it very obvious.

The woman whom she had made an acquaintance with chose to commit suicide!

Mu Zhi was so frightened that she couldn’t react to anything…There was no escape at all here.

It was a series of endless disappointments ever since she came here.

Mu Zhi no longer wished to listen to how the eighth place was sold and led away.

Her perplexed brain was in a state of complete chaos until she heard someone announcing the start of number nine’s auction.

Mu Zhi was the ninth. At the moment of the announcement, her starting price was one million.

The later the woman’s turn, the cheaper the starting price would be.

However, the past auctions had got to their selling price with just a few rounds as the bids were topped by tens of millions.

When it was Mu Zhi’s turn, she suddenly felt that she was caving in.

Her bidding process was strangely lengthy. From the host’s announcement, she could deduce that two customers were holding placards and competing for her. They were still raising their bids when her

price had gotten to 90 million.

It felt like an extended liberal punishment of dismembering of body parts.

Mu Zhi’s confidence was in a state of total breakdown.

At last, Mu Zhi was sold for 100 million. When it ended, she could no longer control herself.

Her mind was totally blank. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Lu Jinye rushed to the stage as soon as he successfully won Mu Zhi. He put his coat onto Mu Zhi’s body at once and wrapped it around her. He could feel Mu Zhi’s body shaking uncontrollably.

He took off Mu Zhi’s blindfold.

The moment the blindfold was taken off, Mu Zhi did not even look at Lu Jinye. She let out a shrill.

“Don’t touch me!”

She had totally lost it.

She ran down the stage, frightened like a mouse.

Lu Jinye hurried to catch up with Mu Zhi.

Before he could grab hold of her, Mu Zhi collapsed, without seeing clearly that it was Lu Jinye.

Lu Jinye never experienced such torment for a single moment in his life.

It was incomparably painful for him to wait for Mu Zhi to be auctioned, and now as he watched Mu Zhi pass out from fear and anxiety, he felt extremely reprehensible.

Lu Jinye threw Mo Fei a glance, beckoning him to settle everything else. Then, he quickly left the scene with Mu Zhi in his arms.

Immediately after Lu Jinye left the scene, a woman’s shadow tailed closely behind.

Secretary Rao held the knife hidden in her waist tightly and carefully followed Lu Jinye.

She must find an opportunity to get rid of Mu Zhi before she wakes up!

Otherwise, it would be too late!

She didn’t expect that Mu Zhi would have a chance in something so foolproof!

She could not win Mu Zhi over from Lu Jinye in the crowd just now.

The more Secretary Rao thought about it, the more she hated it!
