Falling For The Contract Bride Chapter 278

Chapter 278 Husband and Wife

After Ann had introduced herself, the woman stretched out her hand and introduced herself in a friendly manner, “Hello, my name is Yan Shu.”

The woman wore a windbreaker and underneath it, she seemed to be wearing her work clothes in white. “Are you a doctor?” Ann asked. Yan Shu replied reservedly, “Yes. I’m doing my housemanship at the First Hospital. I’m actually a medical houseman. Let’s go.”

As she said that, she took over the luggage. When they were walking towards the exit, Yan Shu suddenly realized that Eric’s eyes were glaring on the airport’s big screen.

The man’s eyes were cold and distant. That alone had kept him aloof and apart from the crowd.

When they noticed Eric’s 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, “This is Lu Jinye, Mr. Lu. He is the dream lover and the home-wrecker of all the women of City A.”

“Home-wrecker…”

Ann could not resist laughing at the nickname she gave to Lu Jinye.

“Yes, 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.”

Yan Shu explained with a grin on her face.

“By 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?”

Yan Shu turned around and looked at Ann seriously. Ann shook her head and said, “No.”

Yan Shu frowned and thought for a moment. She then suggested, “Shan Cha, Chuan Bei, Mu Xiang, Yu Zhu, Mu Zhi, Bai Zhi, Bai Kou, Bai He, Zhu Sha, Lian Qiao, Ban Xia… Choose one.”

Hearing these strange-sounding names, Ann could not help laughing.

“What are they? Why do they sound so strange?”

“These are the pinyin of the Chinese herbals. I think it is suitable for a person’s name. You may choose one…”

“Mu…” 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.

“Bai 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 don’t, just forget about it.”

“Wait. The one before that, Mu something? I find it strangely familiar.”

“Mu Zhi?”

Yan Shu was stunned.

After giving it a thought, she said, “You can be called Mu Zhi if you want. It’s a really nice name.”

She pointed to the figure of Lu Jinye, who was appearing on the screen and said, “Rumor has it that Lu Jinye’s lover was named Mu Zhi and she died in an accident. I think this name might not be auspicious.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I choose the name Mu Zhi.”

Ann frowned and said, “Be it auspicious or not, I don’t care. Please take us to the hotel first. I want to get to know this city.”

“Okay.”

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 Xiu’s birthday was in ten days, so she wanted to prepare a birthday surprise for Xie Xiu.

After arranging a place for ‘Mu Zhi’ to stay, Yan Shu told Mu Zhi, “Mu Zhi, if you need anything, just let me know. The city tour starts tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

Mu Zhi said to Yan Shu while coaxing Eric to take a shower.

Yan Shu was her local tour guide.

“Then I’ll leave now.”

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, “You mentioned that you are a medical houseman in the First Hospital. I wonder if the hospital provides any treatment for psychological disorders?”

“Our 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.”

“Do you mind telling me what is your psychological disorder?”

Yan Shu looked at Mu Zhi and asked.

Mu Zhi seemed hesitant to tell, so she asked Yan Shu, “Is there any female doctor? Can you make an appointment for me?”

Mu Zhi asked embarrassedly.

“Of course I can. How about tonight? So that our tour will not be interrupted tomorrow.”

“Sure thing.”

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, “Wait for mommy in the hotel. I will come back as soon as possible.”

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, “Okay, go mom.”

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, “Relax. Don’t be nervous. Tell me your story.”

“I suffered from a serious illness, and then I lost most of my memory. But that didn’t affect my life. After giving birth to my son, every time I try to be intimate with my husband, I’d feel nervous and that causes muscle cramps.”

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.
