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

Chapter 411: Surrender or Escape?

Mu Jingzhe went around to ask about Xiao Wu, but he did not manage to find anything valuable. Instead, he discovered that Xiao Wu often applied for leave and did not go to school. Although Xiao Wu was smart, this situation still did not make the teacher feel comfortable.

Although Xiao Wu's old man was now Shao Qiyun, his teacher still felt that Mu Jingzhe was more reliable. When Mu Jingzhe went to school to find out about Xiao Wu's situation, the teacher pulled him aside to speak.

Xiao Wu took time off from school and did not go to school often. He spent all his time to earn money. Mu Jingzhe realized that Xiao Wu had even participated in the competition program but did not perform well in it. Xiao Wu's musical rhythm was obviously quite good, but it made people feel irritated.

Mu Jingzhe frowned when he heard that. It seemed like there was something wrong with Xiao Wu's music as well. It's annoying to listen. No matter what the rhythm is, one feels something is wrong with it.

Some of the music is clearly soothing and should make people feel calm, but when someone hears it, they are calm to the point of feeling depressed.

The more Mu Jingzhe listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. Xiao Wu's music shouldn't be like this. He even suspected that Xiao Wu had psychological problems, but he was only suspicious. There was no way for him to be sure.

“Bu, you secretly asked about Xiao Wu again. Didn't we agree to not care about him anymore?”

Mu Jingzhe, who was caught eavesdropping on the radio by Shao Xi, touched her nose. "I just thought he was acting weird, so I wanted to listen."

“She has returned to stay with Shao Qiyun for a few months now. Isn't he living well enough? Just ignore him. Since he's giving up on us, let's give up on him as well. ”

Shao Xi was angry when she mentioned Xiao Wu and really did not want to feel angry anymore.

“Mm.” Mu Jingzhe agreed, but for some reason, he felt uneasy.

This anxiety lasted a long time, causing Mu Jingzhe to suffer from insomnia. When it was past eleven, he was still not asleep.

Initially, her daily routine improved thanks to the four children. He usually goes to bed before ten, goes to bed early, and wakes up early. She rarely suffered from insomnia or anything like that, but tonight, she was very anxious.

He rolled and turned around but could not fall asleep. Mu Jingzhe carefully got up to drink the water. Just as he finished drinking the water, he heard a commotion. He turned around and looked at Little Bei and Shao Dong.

Little Bei was completely awakened by that voice, as was Shao Dong. He usually sleeps well and will be aware of any movements. Besides, Mu Jingzhe was busy and worried, so she came to take a look.

“Did I wake you two up? Back to sleep. I'm fine." Mu Jingzhe suspected that his menstruation would come early. Otherwise, he wouldn't feel so anxious.

“Are you really okay? Mom, are you still thinking about Xiao Wu?” Shao Dong got straight to the point.

“I'm really fine. Xiao Wu... I just felt like he was acting strange.” Mu Jingzhe paused for a moment and held onto his chest as he suddenly took a deep breath.

"What's wrong?" Shao Dong and Little Bei stood up sensitively.

"There's nothing. I just feel like I can't breathe. I feel very irritated and anxious.” There was also an indescribable sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Mu Jingzhe could not help but take two steps forward. Shao Dong was confused. “Why this happened..”

“I also don't know.” He just feels bad. Mu Jingzhe looked at their worried faces and wanted to comfort them, but when he opened his mouth, he spewed out a mouthful of blood without warning.

"Mama!"

Shao Dong's expression changed drastically as he stepped forward to capture Mu Jingzhe.

"Mama!" Little Bei's voice choked with tears. As he looked at Mu Jingzhe, it was as if he had returned to a state of helplessness a year ago, when Mu Jingzhe was sick.

“Didn't you say that you've recovered? Why are you still vomiting blood?” Little Bei helped support Mu Jingzhe and called her 'Mother' several times, but Mu Jingzhe did not react at all.

"Hurry up, get Mommy to the hospital!" Shao Dong's face was pale, but he tried his best to calm down. “Nan Small, contact Father and Uncle Ji and ask them to come and help quickly. We take Mama to the hospital first.”

Shao Nan replied and ran out, but she stepped on the blood Mu Jingzhe spewed. He stared at the black blood. He did not know if it was his imagination, but Shao Nan seemed to see something moving in his blood.

Compared to last time, the color of his blood was different, making Shao Nan feel even more worried.

Shao Dong and Shao Xi worked together to bring Mu Jingzhe to the rickshaw borrowed from the house next door. They have a car at home, but they are too young to drive it. On the other hand, they can go up and push the pedicab.

Shao Dong was about to board a rickshaw and leave when Xiao Wu suddenly ran over and appeared at the door. His head was covered in sweat. When he saw Shao Dong, he asked, "Did Mom vomit blood?"

Shao Dong and the others were tense. They did not expect Xiao Wu to appear at this time and call her 'Mother'. He even asked if he was vomiting blood.

Didn't he just acknowledge Shao Qiyun just now? Besides, why did he accidentally rush over and why did he know that Mommy had vomited blood?

"Whatchu mean? What did you do to Mom?” Shao Xi grabbed onto Xiao Wu's clothes and looked at him with a murderous gaze.

"Where did you know you vomited blood?" Little Bei's eyes were filled with suspicion.

Xiao Wu had already seen the blood at the corner of Mu Jingzhe's mouth. When he heard Little Bei's question and confirmed that Mu Jingzhe had spewed blood, he was not as nervous as Shao Dong and the others. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief.

That's fine now. Everything's fine now.

Xiao Wu could not help but laugh even when Shao Xi took his clothes. When Shao Xi saw Xiao Wu laughing, her first reaction was Xiao Wu laughing at them and Mu Jingzhe for vomiting blood.

How can he tolerate this? In anger, Shao Xi punched Xiao Wu viciously. “You laughing? Shao Zhong, let me tell you something. If something happens to Mom, you can kiss your life goodbye!”

Xiao Wu was beaten to the ground by Shao Xi but did not say a word.

Shao Dong felt that Xiao Wu's words were very strange, and his reaction was also very strange. Recalling when he came, it seemed like he had known in advance that Mu Jingzhe was going to vomit blood. Everything seemed strange, but now was not the time to continue this matter. He glanced at Mu Jingzhe and did not care, hurriedly getting on the rickshaw to the hospital.

Shao Xi and Little Bei could not be bothered anymore and helped push the rickshaw.

Lying on the ground, the moment Xiao Wu saw them off, she no longer hid her depressed emotions and began to wail. He had saved Mommy, but he had also killed someone.

Shao Nan had just contacted Shao Qihai and Ji Buwang and was about to follow them to the hospital when she heard Xiao Wu's cry from the door.

They are cries of despair. For a moment, Shao Nan could not even describe how she felt.

His voice was obviously desperate, but it also contained joy and relief. Shao Nan's heart trembled when she heard that. Looking at Xiao Wu's back, Shao Nan realized that Xiao Wu was very thin. It was as if she had not grown since she left the house, as Mommy had said.

Shao Nan pursed her lips and stepped forward to pull Xiao Wu upwards. “So your abnormal behavior in the past few months has really been the result of being threatened, Xiao Wu. Or is there more to the story than it seems? Quickly tell me what's going on!"

Shao Nan realized that the fingers of Xiao Wu's left hand were covered in blood. “What's with your hand? Did you cut yourself? Why don't you tell us about it instead of taking action yourself? ”

He was furious, but Xiao Wu was unwilling to stare at Shao Nan. He let go of her hand and turned to leave. "What are you talking about? Nothing more than looks.”

Now that everything was dealt with, it was too late. There's nothing left to say.

He was supposed to turn himself in, but maybe running away made more sense…
