Mu Jingzhe could only be happy because it was not a paraquat[1]. Otherwise, it would really be over. No one could save him at all costs. A paraquat is something that gives one time to regret it but is certainly not an opportunity to live. Furthermore, one would feel tormented until their final moments.
It was something that could not be touched. Mu Jingzhe took the opportunity to emphasize to the children that these dangerous things could not be touched casually. Of course, he specifically emphasized this matter to Xiao Wu.
Some of them surrounded Xiao Wu's bed and went straight to the point. “Tell us, what happened? Why are you two drinking pesticides?”
Xiao Wu looked at their interrogation stance and paused for a moment before saying, “He doesn't want to live anymore. He wanted to die, so he dragged me along with him and made me kill myself.
“I felt something was wrong when I saw her buying pesticides earlier. Since I don't want to die, I make preparations first. I poured the pesticide into one of the bottles and replaced it with water. All I drink is a bottle of water.”
Although it had been replaced with water, there was still pesticide residue, so Xiao Wu could not possibly remain intact unscathed.
“I don't want to die. I regretted. If I knew he was so greedy and cruel, I wouldn't have followed him back. But there's no point in talking about this.”.
“Alright, never think of making excuses to fool us. Tell me honestly, what did Shao Qiyun threaten you with? Is it related to my previous illness? You ran to look for me and even knew in advance that I was going to vomit blood.
Mu Jingzhe interrupted Xiao Wu. “There's no point hiding it now. You better come clean. ”
Xiao Wu pursed his lips and did not say anything. Ji Buwang sighed. “Xiao Wu, even though you might hide this from us because you were threatened or something like that, the injuries you caused with your previous actions were a fact. Now, stop intentionally making excuses. You know that your mother and the others don't like it.”
Shao Qihai added, “Shao Qiyun is a coward who is afraid of death. He couldn't have killed himself for no reason. You're behind this, right? Are you worried about this, or are you afraid Shao Qiyun will die?”
Xiao Wy stopped breathing. Shao Dong observed his expression. “So what did Shao Qiyun do to Mom to make you want to kill her? What really happened between you two?”
They chimed in one after another, forcing Xiao Wu into a corner. Besides, they could guess everything. This was also the reason he was so ruthless and made everything look reasonable before.
Right now, even though he didn't say anything, they could still find most of the truth. Xiao Wu looked at them and clearly realized that there was no point in hiding it anymore.
“I do... have my own reasons. Mostly, I want to protect Mom. ” No one was surprised when Xiao Wu finished.
"It's really like a movie." Mu Jingzhe let out a sigh of relief. As he looked at Xiao Wu, who looked very different from before, was very thin and thin and with dark eye circles at such a young age, his heart ached unbearably. He preferred this was the story of an ungrateful person.
At least ungrateful will not hurt himself.
However, Xiao Wu did not really strive to be strong or insist on shouldering this on his own. He deliberately did not tell Mu Jingzhe and the others just because he had no choice. Therefore, even though he knew that his methods were not right and that Mu Jingzhe and the others would not like him, he could only do this.
The entire incident had begun when Mu Jingzhe fell ill last year.
Xiao Wu naturally did not believe it. He had never heard of anyone with such abilities. She did not expect Ji Buwang would come looking for her and say that Mu Jingzhe was really sick.
However, at first, Xiao Wu thought it was just a coincidence. Shao Qiyun only took the opportunity to frighten her after learning that Mu Jingzhe was sick. He believed that if he was sick, he would be fine after going to the doctor. Even if Shao Qiyun had poisoned Mu Jingzhe, they could have caught Shao Qiyun after asking the doctor to take care of her.
However, the doctors were unable to find the cause of his illness, and Mu Jingzhe had also not recovered. Shao Qiyun had found Xiao Wu again. Compared to when Xiao Wu first met him, Shao Qiyun's face was much brighter. It must be admitted that Shao Qiyun was originally very thin and her face was pale, but after a long time of not meeting, she looked very different to him.
Mu Jingzhe became weak and pale, while Shao Qiyun became energetic in a short period of time. He looked for Xiao Wu and told him, “Do you believe me now? I'm the one who caused her to fall ill.”
“I don't believe you. How can you be able to do that! ”
“It's very simple. I fed your mother some specially made things while you were eating out. From now on, his life will be in my hands. I was initially skeptical, but I didn't expect it to actually work. Ha ha - ha…"
Shao Qiyun laughed out loud. “The sky has eyes. They gave me a chance to take revenge on him for taking you. Now, I'm gonna take you back.
“Shao Zhong, listen. In the past, I didn't want to admit you, but I do now. I don't want you to acknowledge Mu Jingzhe. You have to promise me this. You must also be a filial son and let me, your mother, live in the lap of luxury. Otherwise, I will torture Mu Jingzhe for the rest of his life. I'll make him vomit blood and take his life. You will then live with regret for the rest of your life.
Xiao Wu still did not believe him. Shao Qiyun said directly, “I know you won't trust me easily, but it doesn't matter. I have a lot of opportunities to prove it. Go back and wait. I'll make him vomit blood in half an hour. You'll believe me then.
“If you still don't believe me, I can prove it to you a few more times. I can do it as much as you want, but I don't know if he'll survive by vomiting blood multiple times. That's your choice."
Shao Qiyun was not afraid and swore solemnly. Xiao Wu ran back home in disbelief and saw Mu Jingzhe vomit blood a second time. Right at the time that Shao Qiyun mentioned.
Xiao Wu became afraid. He wanted to immediately tell Mu Jingzhe, Shao Dong, and the others, but Shao Qiyun had anticipated it and forbade him from doing so from the very beginning.
“You are not allowed to tell anyone about this. Only you and I know. Otherwise, I will kill Mu Jingzhe directly. If Shao Dong and the others find out, or if your father, Ji Buwang, and the others find out, I won't admit it. I will kill Mu Jingzhe directly.”
Shao Qiyun was not good at anything else, but she was talented at committing crimes. He was afraid that if Mu Jingzhe found out, he would not be able to achieve his goal. He was also afraid that there would be trouble if Shao Dong and the others found out about it, as the children were very impressive. Furthermore, Ji Buwang and the others were rich and knew people. Who knew if they would find a way to solve this? If this happens, things will get out of control. Therefore, he forbade Xiao Wu to say anything.
He just wanted a good life, but he didn't want to attract too much attention. The less people know about this, the better. He only wanted to control Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu was only so old, and he was unlike Shao Dong and the others in terms of personality, so he was terrified. There were a few times when he could not help but want to tell his brothers, but whenever he wanted to take action, Mu Jingzhe would continue to be weak.
He also did not dare to bet with Mu Jingzhe's life. Shao Qiyun had suffered too much at the hands of Mu Jingzhe and had long hated him to the bone. Besides, he's completely insane. If the matter were to come to light, he would definitely not let Mu Jingzhe go if things did not go well for him. He really might, as he said, kill him.
