The Villain's Contracted Lover

13-14

Chapter 13 - She Is Not the Same Xu WanZhi as Before Anymore (1)

Traffic was awful on their way towards the river.

Xu WanZhi could tell that Mu ZhenYu was not happy so she kept silent docilely on the way. She didn't even pull out her cellphone and looked at it during the trip.

She wanted to minimize her sense of existence as much as possible.

Waiting at a traffic light, Mu ZhenYu finally turned his attention from the car, looked at Xu WanZhi, and asked, "Why didn't you tell me about your hardship over at Silver Star?"

Without her power, Xu WanZhi wasn't willing to take any chances and piss off the King of Hell. She quickly replied, "You have enough to worry about already, so I didn't think I'd need to bother you with such minor issues. Plus, didn't you not want others to know about our relationship? I am just your excuse for your family, I can handle my own problems."

Lo and behold, Mu ZhenYu's face darkened even more after he heard that. "When have I said that I don't want others to know about us?"

That question made Xu WanZhi speechless – she was pretty sure that Mu ZhenYu said it to the original owner before in the book.

But, she wasn't sure whether he had already said it or not at this point in time.

She decided to just avoid the topic altogether, "Don't worry. There was nothing serious, and I am more than capable of handling them."

"How are you going to handle them? Fight with someone again?" He gave her a sideward glance, and his look could freeze her on the spot. "What happens when you get yourself hurt?"

His question suggested that he not only knew about her being bullied at Silver Star, he even knew about the incident of her twisting Zhou LiQian arm at the filming location that afternoon.

That was odd. Huanyu had gone bankrupt, and most of the people had taken off already. He should have so much stuff to take care of, how'd he has the time to care about what was going on with her?

"Anything that happens in the future, you can feel free to tell me." When the light turned green, Mu ZhenYu stepped down hard on the gas pedal and passed the car next to them. "Don't just take it all on yourself."

Xu WanZhi was very flattered. "Alright."

The villain in front of her was so friendly that he almost seemed like a completely different person than the one described in the book.

The apartment that they were going to move into was located at a new little district by the river. The apartments were smaller in size, and most of the residents were young white-collared workers.

They lived on the top floor, and it was a 3-bedroom place. Mu ZhenYu went back and forth a few times to unload all of their luggage.

Even though there were elevators, there was still a bit of distance between the car to the elevator and the elevator to the apartment. Mu ZhenYu carried all the large and small boxes himself and only asked Xu WanZhi to help with holding open the door or hitting the buttons inside the elevator and nothing else.

It was as though he had unlimited energy.

After everything was unpacked, it was already midnight. Xu WanZhi was tired from all the work, so she just went to bed. When she woke up the next morning, Mu ZhenYu had already woken up and gotten dressed.

Even living in such a small house, he was still able to take in everything calmly and in stride. Supposedly only one that could easily adapt to any new situations like him would be able to make such an amazing comeback later.
