Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 134 She Might Stay Gullible

Jian Xiaoning understood Mu Zhi. Despite previously denying that she loved Lu Jinye, Jian Xiaoning could tell that Mu Zhi felt something different towards him.

Lu Jinye played a significant role in her heart.

Thus, Jian Xiaoning stepped forward, and comforted Mu Zhi, “Alright, you should stop bothering yourself with that. When Lu Jinye is here, he’ll certainly explain his disappearance.”

“Actually, it’s not necessary.”

“I don’t care.”

Mu Zhi chuckled to give off a carefree impression.

However, her gestures were soring to Jian Xiaoning’s eyes.

Nobody would gladly accept what had just happened to Mu Zhi, especially with Mu Xiaomu’s presence. Mu Xiaomu’s existence meant that Mu Zhi must keep herself alive.

But Lu Jinye ended up disappearing on her at the very last minute.

Although Jian Xiaoning had not experienced these first-hand, she could put herself in Mu Zhi’s shoes by looking at the bloody wounds on her arms. How desperate could someone be to find their ways to escape while bearing the pain of having a bone broken into two fragments?

Jian Xiaoning was helpless. She did not know how to console Mu Zhi.

At this moment, a doctor suddenly brushed past Jian Xiaoning and greeted her with a patient’s report in his hand.

He was the director of the Pediatric Department in City S.

“Dr. Jian, good to see you here. You’re a close friend of Mu Xiaomu’s mother. Do you have an idea where she might be? I need to inform her family member.”

“What’s the matter?”

Listening to his words made Mu Zhi raise her alertness, “Did something happen? I am Mu Xiaomu’s parent.”
