Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 153 Plans To Let Go of Love

After the phone call, Mu Zhi frowned at the thought that everything was strange. She shook her head, and hurriedly returned to the glass window to watch her mother.

It had been days. Mu Zhi was upset for the first few days due to what happened between Lu Jinye and her. However, seeing that there was progress to her mother’s condition, Mu Zhi slowly let Lu Jinye and Xiao Qingqing slipped out of her mind.

Jian Xiaoning was very thoughtful for Mu Zhi. She came all the way to the States to visit Mu Zhi, and brought Mu Xiaomu back to City A.

While Mu Zhi did not hear news of Lu Junnian since the last time she met Zhu Sha.

Mu Zhi would run into Zhu Sha every once in a while. As a doctor, it was Zhu Sha’s job to communicate with Mu Zhi regarding her mother’s condition. There was nothing much to talk about apart from work.

Just like that, a week passed harmoniously. Mu Zhi’s routine involving taking care of her mother at the hospital, and sleep.

Without Lu Jinye and Lu Junnian, life seemed to be more tiring, but much less stressful.

She remembered the invitation card Lu Jinye gave her. The wedding was due to take place around two weeks since the day she traveled to the States. However, Mu Zhi was intrigued to realize that she heard no news about the wedding.

Another half a month passed peacefully. One morning, Mu Zhi received a call from Lu Junnian, asking if she was still in the States.

To which, she simply replied, “Yes.”

When she routinely arrived at the hospital to visit her mother, she was surprised to see Lu Junnian at the ward entrance from afar, expecting her.

He appeared to have been waiting for her for a while now!

Mu Zhi stared at Lu Junnian quietly, while a dazzling smile formed on his face. He then put an invitation card into her hand solemnly.

Mu Zhi could not help but startle, then looked to Lu Junnian.

She opened the card as soon as she got it, and at the center of the card, the words wrote, ‘Lu Junnian & Zhu Sha’.

It was an invitation to their betrothal.
