Transmigrating To The 80s To Become Stepmom To Five Bigwigs Chapter 400: Xiao Wu Moves Away

Chapter 400: Xiao Wu Moves Away

When she stood in front of Xiao Wu, Mu Jingzhe even felt that the dust had settled for some reason. Xiao Wu's previous abnormality had made her feel that things wouldn't end easily. She just hadn't expected it all to erupt so quickly…

Mu Jingzhe looked at the unfamiliar Xiao Wu and couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?" Previously, she had even wondered if Xiao Wu had transmigrated like her, but this was indeed Xiao Wu.

However, Mu Jingzhe was baffled by his actions. "Why do you want to acknowledge Shao Qiyun?" She really couldn't figure it out. It would be fine if it was a normal woman, but Shao Qiyun… This didn't make sense at all.

Xiao Wu pursed his lips and avoided Mu Jingzhe's gaze. "Nothing's wrong. I just want to acknowledge her."

The light in Mu Jingzhe's eyes slowly disappeared. "Looks like you've made up your mind. From what I hear, you're saying that you want to go over and live with her? You want to leave us? You can bear to leave us?"

"Maybe I won't be used to it at first, but when people grow up, they split up. I'm just pus.h.i.+ng it forward. Besides, now that everyone is busy with their own stuff, there's no difference.

"That's why I wanted to go to her. This is also why I acknowledged her… She's my biological mother. It's different after all."

Xiao Wu didn't say the last sentence loudly, but the words 'biological mother' in particular stabbed Mu Jingzhe's heart like a knife.

Perhaps if this had happened two years ago, Mu Jingzhe wouldn't be feeling like this, but Xiao Wu had said this now.

What happened to not minding the absence of blood relations? That was what she had always done. All those years of companions.h.i.+p and warmth were torn apart at this moment. Even the feelings they had developed over the past few years seemed to have turned into bubbles.

She had been his mother for a few years, yet she couldn't even compare to his 'biological' mother?

Everything was really absurd. So absurd that it seemed like a joke. However, Xiao Wu left after saying this and didn't look back.

Mu Jingzhe took a step back. She took a deep breath and thought that she could steady herself, but the five kids weren't blind. They saw her pale face.

These words also made the other kids abnormally angry. This time, besides Shao Xi and Shao Nan, even the calm Shao Dong and Little Bei, who had been speaking up for Xiao Wu, were angry.

This was their mother. Mommy had done so much for him, but in the end, it all couldn't even offset the fact that she wasn't related to him by blood?

He had to be joking!

Looking at Mu Jingzhe's face, Shao Xi was furious. He had always wanted to protect Mu Jingzhe, but he hadn't expected Xiao Wu to stab her in the heart.

Because they were a family, because they cared, this made the blow all the more devastating.

Shao Xi was about to rush out without a word when Mu Jingzhe quickly stopped him. "Little Xi, don't be rash. I'll look for him. Let's talk after we calm down."

If Shao Xi rushed out, the two children would definitely fight. The situation was bound to get out of hand.

"We all know Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu isn't this kind of person. There must be something going on." Mu Jingzhe tried her best to calm down. "We have to understand the situation first. Maybe Xiao Wu is being threatened. Rather than scold him, we might as well solve the problem first."

Shao Xi was furious, but his heart ached for her. "He treated you so badly… yet you still speak up for him."

"Because there's a reason for my suspicions. Although I really hate people who hurt others for a reason, we have to solve the problem at hand first."

Shao Dong looked at Mu Jingzhe and took on the task of appeasing and restraining his siblings to give Mu Jingzhe some peace and quiet. He could tell that Mu Jingzhe was very troubled.

Mu Jingzhe was indeed quite troubled, as this matter had come about completely inexplicably. Xiao Wu had been raised by her. She didn't believe he would do such a thing.

"You guys go to school now. The final exam is coming up soon. Don't worry about me. I'm fine. Xiao Wu isn't that kind of person. Something might have happened. Wait for me to find out."

Shao Xi was angrier than anyone else, but he still listened obediently.

Mu Jingzhe went to look for the reason Xiao Wu had changed. She didn't find anything after running around for an entire day. When she returned home, she thought that Xiao Wu probably didn't mean what he had said in the morning and might be back already. However, when she returned, she realized that Xiao Wu's room was already empty.

He had taken the chance to move his things away while no one was at home.

Mu Jingzhe stood at the door of Xiao Wu's room, feeling stunned when she saw the empty, messy room.

After cla.s.s, like Mu Jingzhe, Shao Xi and the rest went to find out why this was happening. They didn't have time to look at Xiao Wu's room. Upon seeing Mu Jingzhe like this, they thought that Xiao Wu had returned.

"Is Xiao Wu back? I told you he went crazy…"

Shao Xi stopped talking when he saw the room. "He… He moved away? How dare he move away? How could he… Mom, you…"

Shao Xi wanted to ask 'Mom, are you alright?' but he felt that he'd just be asking the obvious.

"I'll go look for him at once!" Shao Xi's eyes were filled with killing intent and had turned red from anger. He didn't know what Xiao Wu was thinking. It wasn't easy for their family to lead a good life, but he had to do this.

Mu Jingzhe grabbed Shao Xi. "I'll go."

The furious Shao Xi was stunned. "Mom."

"I'll go. I'll ask him." Mu Jingzhe was extremely calm. "No matter the reason, I want to hear it with my own ears. Little Xi, wait for me at home. I'll find out the reason for his abnormal behavior and bring him home."

Shao Dong pulled Shao Xi back and silently supported Mu Jingzhe.

Mu Jingzhe was so vexed that she was afraid she would get into an accident, so she didn't drive and walked to her destination instead. This was the second time she went to look for Shao Qiyun, but her mentality was completely different.

At night, the weather became increasingly cold, especially when it was windy. Mu Jingzhe sobered up a little thanks to the cold.

When she arrived, she realized that the lights in Shao Qiyun's house were lit. She couldn't see them, but she could hear their voices.

"Mom, wash your feet." This was Xiao Wu's voice. Judging from the sounds she heard, Xiao Wu was was.h.i.+ng Shao Qiyun's feet.

"Alright. My son is so obedient." Shao Qiyun sounded like she was beaming. She sounded like a loving mother, but Mu Jingzhe couldn't take it anymore and shouted directly, "Xiao Wu!"

When Mu Jingzhe called out, the house fell silent. After a while, Shao Qiyun's voice was heard. "I think it sounds like Mu Jingzhe's voice. Did she come to look for you after finding out that you moved to my place?"

"No, you heard wrong."

Hearing Xiao Wu's denial, Mu Jingzhe said, "You didn't hear wrong. It's me. Xiao Wu, come out and talk to me."

"Go quickly." It was quiet inside for a while before Shao Qiyun's voice was heard again.

Xiao Wu finally walked out and stood in front of Mu Jingzhe without saying a word. Mu Jingzhe didn't say anything. She first squatted down and checked Xiao Wu's limbs, neck, and face to see if he was injured. Only when she didn't see any abnormalities did she heave a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Wu, I'm here to pick you up. I don't care if you're being threatened or anything like that. I hope you'll come home with me and we'll solve the problem together.

"We agreed long ago that if anything happened, we'd handle it together. We can work together as a family…"

Mu Jingzhe was still talking when she was interrupted by Xiao Wu impatiently. "I've already moved out, so I don't intend to come back. Since you're here, can you give me my pa.s.sbook? I only remembered that I asked you to keep my pa.s.sbook when I moved my things out earlier today."
