After this kiss, Mu Jingzhe forgot all about tickling her. In the end, Ji Buwang went through another round of torment, feeling pain and joy.
After Mu Jingzhe obtained the power from Ji Buwang and formulated a plan, he immediately implemented it. For this reason, he specifically called Shao Dong, Shao Nan, Little Bei, and Xiao Wu, basically all children except Shao Xi, and told them about his worries and plans.
Shao Nan and the others could feel Shao Xi's change and were very supportive. “No problem, Mom. We know what to do.”
"I'll tell Dad too" Shao Dong said.
“Alright, we will carry out the plan from today.”
Shao Xi quickly felt the change in her family's attitude towards her. It was not that they ignored him, but they were obviously much colder to him.
No matter what he said, they were not as supportive as before. Plus, they don't praise him anymore.
He thought it was just his imagination, but when he took his new job and went looking for Mu Jingzhe, he was not as excited as before. He even asked Shao Xi to put it aside, as if he did not want to bother to look at it.
Of course, in the end, Mu Jingzhe still read it, but he wasn't as happy as before. His expression did not change either, and he only returned it after reading it.
“Bu, why didn't you say anything? Not a good read?” Shao Xi's heart skipped a beat, and he was filled with doubt.
"He. It was written by our great writer Shao Xi. How not to be a good read? Many people praise you.”
Mu Jingzhe said it was a good read, but his expression did not say that. Shao Xi pursed her lips. “Bu, tell the truth. I'm asking you."
"Do you really want to hear the truth?"
“Of course,” replied Shao Xi without hesitation.
"Well fine then. Actually, I just gave you a face now. To be honest, it was ... it was just an average this time. You didn't surprise me too much. ”
Mu Jingzhe shrugged and looked at Shao Xi's expression. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Shao Xi said she was fine, but she was confused. “I'll think about it again. Exercise book..”
He wanted to say that he would hand over the exercise book to Mu Jingzhe, just like in the past, but Mu Jingzhe did not even look at the exercise book, and it was clear that he had no intention of keeping it.
Shao Xi clutched her training book tightly and turned to leave.
After he left, Mu Jingzhe looked up. "I wonder if this is going to be too big a blow ..."
In fact, Shao Xi had written a pretty good article this time. There was no doubt about his abilities, but there were indeed no surprises there. Therefore, Mu Jingzhe had controlled his expression and carried out his plan.
Shao Xi did suffer a huge blow. This was the first time he had seen Mu Jingzhe like this. After taking a closer look, he even started to doubt himself.
That night, Shao Xi did not feel like he was floating in the air for the first time after such a long time. Instead, he threw and turned around, unable to fall asleep. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. There was also a bit of anger in him. "Average? How can it be average? I could write something amazing!”
After saying that, he started writing furiously in the middle of the night.
Worried about Shao Xi, Shao Dong slept with him. After seeing that he was writing in the middle of the night, something he rarely did, he could not help but smile.
The next day, as soon as Mu Jingzhe woke up, Shao Xi stopped him and asked him to take a look at his new work.
Upon seeing it, Mu Jingzhe could barely control his expression. When Shao Xi actually exploded, it was a pleasant surprise, but she could still control her expression.
“Slightly better than yesterday. Why are you writing something again so quickly?”
Mu Jingzhe returned the exercise book to Shao Xi after reading it. Even though he said that it was a little better, he did not seem happy or anything.
“Is it really bad? But I've become very serious. I think it's very good too. Isn't that much better than what I wrote when I was younger?
“Then, you praised me for writing well and you even wanted to collect my exercise book. You've even asked me how my brain grew to be so smart, but now ... "
It was as if Shao Xi had been let down by a bastard lover. He's too sad.
Shao Dong, who was observing him from the outside, accidentally heard this. He could barely help laughing.
Although she felt amused, Mu Jingzhe's heart ached a little when she heard that. However, he still strengthened himself and endured. Then, he bought many books as planned. They were all carefully selected. Most importantly, the writer who wrote it is still young.
Shao Xi then heard Mu Jingzhe, Shao Dong, and the others praising the work of others for several days. They even said that they wanted to invest in it to turn it into animation.
Shao Xi almost died from anger when she heard that. He said that he hated to see these books, but at night, he could not help but read them secretly.
He recalled what Mu Jingzhe and the others had said about the power of these books over the past few days and realized that it was true. There is always someone better than him.
After three rounds of rehabilitation therapy, Shao Xi finally calmed down and her legs landed on the ground.
Then, Mu Jingzhe reminded him that it was time for him to pay his respects and burn down his work. Everything about the Fat Boy appeared in Shao Xi's mind again, followed by his own initial intentions.
Yeah, he wanted to do this back then.
Shao Xi's heart was completely drowned. He rediscovered his original intentions and showed his sincerity. The feeling that he was floating in the air also finally disappeared.
As Shao Xi grew up, she realized that Mu Jingzhe and his brothers had deliberately deceived her.
Lucky they had it. He now understood the goodwill of Mu Jingzhe and the others.
In the blink of an eye, the New Year is almost here. They originally wanted to return to the county town to celebrate the New Year, but since there was an urgent matter to be resolved in the studio, Shao Dong and the others came back first. Mu Jingzhe stayed behind and delayed his return by two days.
Seeing that Mu Jingzhe had not left, Ji Buwang also delayed his return to the capital for two days.
Without children, the two of them finally had a rare chance to be alone. After two days, they had to separate again, so they were increasingly reluctant to part.
Ji Buwang's house was right beside them, but he continued to hang out at Mu Jingzhe's place for no reason and couldn't bear to leave. After dinner, taking a walk, and returning, she still couldn't bear to leave.
"Quick back. I'm gonna take a shower. I'll sleep when I'm done. You should also. Sleep well when you get back. ” They are both alone. They obviously did nothing, but for some reason, Mu Jingzhe felt something in the air. Therefore, he sent Ji Buwang home.
Ji Buwang agreed and left obediently. When he came back, he even took a shower. However, after taking a bath, she realized that she had forgotten to say good night, so she put on her coat and ran back.
He had the keys to Mu Jingzhe's house, so he could come and go as he pleased.
Boys usually shower faster than girls. When Mu Jingzhe came out slowly, he was surprised to see Ji Buwang there. “Why are you back?”
"I forgot to say good night." Ji Buwang kissed Mu Jingzhe. “I'm here just to do that. Good night."
“You really... Okay, I hear you. Good night too. I'll go to sleep now.”
"Wait, your hair isn't dry yet." Ji Buwang frowned.
"It's okay. My hair is short, so soon it will dry.” Even now, Mu Jingzhe still used the short hairstyle.
“Although so, you have to dry your hair before going to bed. If not, you will get a headache. I'll help you dry your hair before I go.”
"unneeded. I can dry it myself.” Mu Jingzhe helplessly went to the room to look for a towel. She then sat down by the bed and started wiping her hair.
