TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS

Chapter 147 - Retribution

Previously, Mu Jingzhe had focused on making money and raising all five children. Although Ji Buwang had confessed his feelings, he had no time or energy for this.

However, lately, Ji Buwang did show his sincerity.

?

After dinner, it was already dark, so Ji Buwang escorted them back.

This was the first time Ji Buwang had been in the Great Eastern Village, but he was wise enough to just take them to the village entrance and not even get off the car. He was considerate enough not to make things difficult for Mu Jingzhe.

Logically speaking, Mu Jingzhe should have invited Ji Buwang to his house for tea. However, her identity as a widow would invite gossip if she was seen in her home, and Mu Jingzhe was the center of attention now. If the villagers really saw Ji Buwang, who knows what would happen.

Mu Jingzhe was in a difficult position. Knowing that, Ji Buwang just waved at them and left after they got off the car.

Mu Jingzhe noticed Ji Buwang's car leaving and stood there for a moment before turning around to return.

The next day, after driving the children to school, Mu Jingzhe suddenly saw Tang Moling outside the village. Tang Moling came to look for her.

"Mu Jingzhe, don't you let the children go to art school just to avoid me?"

Tang Moling had given Mu Jingzhe a week to receive it, thinking that he should have calmed down after a week.

He specifically went to art school to look for them after class in the afternoon, but he did not manage to find them. He even went to the regional library, but they were not there either.

Tang Moling did not know that Mu Jingzhe and his children had gone to Ji Buwang's house. He thought that Mu Jingzhe was trying to avoid him, so he let his imagination run wild. In the end, he couldn't help but run to look for Mu Jingzhe the next day.

Mu Jingzhe's hair stood up when he saw her. "Why are you here? Are you trying to get me in? When the villagers see you looking for me, they will definitely misunderstand and think that I have snatched you away. Old Madam Mu and Mu Xue will not let go of me.”

“I've already broken off my engagement to her. You and I should be together sooner or later. ” Tang Moling frowned.

Mu Jingzhe looked at Tang Moling, then looked around to calm down. "Are you really done with Mu Xue?"

"of course. Otherwise, why would I go so far as to end the engagement?

“So you were serious before. You're not kidding or getting revenge?” Mu Jingzhe tried his best to calm down.

"Of course not. Who would take revenge on someone by making such a joke?” Seeing that he finally accepted it, Tang Moling heaved a sigh of relief. “Do not worry, if they are not happy or say nonsense in the village, I will find a way to deal with it.”

Mu Jingzhe shook his head. “How will you deal with it? Money is not almighty. Forget it, don't rush to talk about it. If what you say is true, then I will give my answer first. I don't like you, so there's no way something's going on between us. Remember, it is impossible.”

He had seen the love between Mu Xue and Tang Moling before. Although she had tried her best to accept the fact that Tang Moling had changed her mind, she rejected him without hesitation.

He was only wary and suspicious of this confession.

Tang Moling's face stiffened. "Impossible?" Why did he use such an absolute word?

"Absolutely. Regardless of whether it was true or not, it was simply impossible. Please don't come looking for me again in the future. ” Mu Jingzhe nodded. Feeling that he had made himself clear, he immediately left.

Tang Moling wanted to chase after her but was stopped by Mu Jingzhe. "Don't force me to bring you down."

Tang Moling gritted his teeth and stood still. “I will not give up. I'll come and find you again.”

The more he spoke, the faster Mu Jingzhe ran. Soon, he disappeared without a trace. Judging from the way he ran, those who did not know would think that stray dogs were chasing him.

Mu Xue stood behind him and looked at him coldly.

"When did you arrive?" Tang Moling frowned.

"When Mu Jingzhe came." Mu Xue had followed Mu Jingzhe. Although she was far away and had not heard everything, she had heard Tang Moling's last sentence clearly.

"You came to find Mu Jingzhe." At that moment, Mu Xue wished she wasn't too sensitive, but she had already predicted everything.

“Tang Moling, I can tolerate you breaking off the engagement, but I cannot accept you with Mu Jingzhe. Now that you are with him, how should I face everyone?

If Tang Moling really married Mu Jingzhe, he would be a complete joke. Mu Xue could not tolerate it. She would definitely not let Mu Jingzhe find happiness and marry Tang Moling by trampling on him.

One Shao Qihai was enough.

“My only request is that you are not with him. Can't you do that?” asked Mu Xue.

“I didn't promise you this back then. I'm sorry I couldn't do it.” Tang Moling could only apologize. “I'm sorry for hurting you.”

After apologizing, Tang Moling changed the subject. “But I hope you don't vent your anger on him. My heart changed not because she seduced me. He never did anything like that. If you want to blame someone, blame me. He's not guilty. I fell in love with her, and it had nothing to do with her. Don't make him have trouble with Grandma.”

When he heard his words, Mu Xue's face was filled with ridicule. “You've been very protective of him. How do you expect me to believe that she's not seducing you? Tell me how I'm inferior to him. Tell me what he did to make you so loyal to him.”

Tang Moling frowned. "Mu Xue, can't we part peacefully?"

"Cannot be. If you chase after Mu Jingzhe, we won't be able to part well. I will not let Mu Jingzhe go, and the Mu Family will not let go either. I'll tell everyone about the immoral way he snatched my fiancee. Since he did, he had to pay the price.”

Mu Xue's suppressed hatred erupted at that moment.

Tang Moling looked at the unfamiliar Mu Xue and closed his eyes. “Mu Xue, I told you she didn't seduce me. He doesn't like me at all. You must have seen it yourself by now. He kept rejecting me. He keeps hoping that you and I will be together, but I can't control myself.”

“I don't believe you. There must be a reason why you're so protective of him. Do you know what kind of person Mu Jingzhe is? ”

Mu Xue gritted her teeth. “He will snatch anyone who likes me. If he could not, he would ruin his reputation. Shao Qihai, Shao Qiyang, Zhang Fei, Li Hua, and all of you are the same. Last time, he said that Li Hua took revenge on him. Who knows them..”.

“Do not mention Li Hua. He's just a piece of trash.” Tang Moling would not interrupt her. “He did something bad. He only wanted to bully Mu Jingzhe.”.

At this point, Tang Moling reacted and stopped suddenly, but it was too late.

"What do you mean? How do you know this? Didn't you leave?” Mu Xue's expression changed slightly.

Tang Moling hesitated for a moment. “I'm leaving, but Mu Jingzhe seems to be feeling unwell, so I follow him. In the end, I was locked up in a.” factory

Mu Xue's student shrank. "You two…"

“Do not directly conclude. Nothing happened between us. I'm just saying this because I hope you don't misunderstand him. Li Hua did have bad intentions, and she really did not seduce me. I just completely understood my feelings that night.”

Tang Moling explained many things, hoping that Mu Xue did not think too much about it. He had unintentionally let this matter slip through, so if he did not explain everything clearly, he was afraid that Mu Xue would misunderstand.

However, Mu Xue could not hear anything. His ears were buzzing, and none of the man's words were recorded in his mind. There was only one word left in his mind—retaliation.
