Chapter 2229: Chapter 2229
"Mom?" Lu Zishu disregarded his leg pain and looked at her in surprise, seeing her clear eyes, and asked uncertainly, "Are you better now?"
"Yes, if I weren’t better, I wouldn’t know just how capable you are. My daughter whom I have cherished for over ten years nearly got separated from me by you!" Zhao Li said irritably.
She didn’t expect that upon waking up, the first thing she heard were Lu Zishu’s words.
Although she was muddled these days, it didn’t mean her memory was gone. Recalling the foolish things she did these days, she apologetically looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, don’t listen to his nonsense. These days I was confused, and it’s been unfair to you."
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at the now normal Zhao Li, her nose stinging, and ran over, hugging her neck while crying, "Godmother, sorry..."
Zhao Li held her, soothingly patting her back, "You silly child, you haven’t done a thing wrong. It’s godmother who was wrong, godmother got stubborn and made you suffer these days. Don’t worry, your Brother Zishu can’t run this family, I’m still in charge here. As long as I’m around, no one will make things hard for you."
Zhao Li truly felt quite guilty.
Lu Xian’s departure had been a big blow to her, and even years ago, she regretted not arranging a childhood engagement instead of just being godparents. Although the families remained close, she always regretted it inwardly.
This time, when Lu Xian returned, she thought her son had moved on, but Lu Meng calling her "Mom" made her realize perhaps her son had never let go. His passing, combined with the pain of losing him and past regrets, drove her into mental turmoil, making her retreat into a world of her own making.
