Falling For The Contract Bride

Chapter 177 Let the Past Stay in the Past

Mu Zhi pursed her lips firmly. She drew another deep breath and headed towards her mother’s floor.

Still hoping for a miracle.

Despite knowing that everything was over.

When she arrived at the mother’s ward, she first glanced at the vitals device that showed no sign of life. In this instance, the medical staff had removed all the connections of the machine.

It was common to find it difficult to accept the death of one’s immediate family member.

Because… The juxtaposition of having one smiling at you, loving you, a person with emotions compared to the cold, lifeless body was difficult to swallow.

Mu Zhi did not dare to enter the ward. She stood by the door for a long moment.

Finally, she plucked up the courage to push the door open.

Tears started gushing down uncontrollably.

Mu Zhi did not rub her eyes. She allowed the tears to come surging down.

Then, Mu Zhi slowly approached the bed and said, “Mom, let’s go home.”

As soon as the words were said, she could no longer hold her emotions. She started wailing without any reservation. Her voice was cracked and hoarse. She was crying with all the strength she had.

Not long after Mu Zhi got into the ward, Lu Junnian and his butler arrived. Both of them did not enter the ward. Lu Junnian was watching Mu Zhi. He felt sorry for her and had the urge to approach her for some comforting words.

However, before he could open the door, he heard a series of approaching footsteps followed by Zhu Sha’s voice, “Lu Junnian.”

She called out Lu Junnian’s name. She gazed into the room with her charming eyes before turning her face to the butler, “Sir, I’ll let you take care of the rest. Let me bring Junnian away for now.”

Lu Junnian raised his eyes to glance at Zhu Sha.

She smiled at him lightly and said, “Darling, did you know? We should learn to cherish. Let the past stay in the past. If we could let go of the past, it might turn into pleasant memories to look back on, but if we continue to live in the past, we might miss the beautiful things presented to us in the future.”
