Chapter 175: Chapter 175 He Wants to Change His Mother

Lu Nuonuo climbed down from Lu Xining’s embrace and walked over to Ji Muye, tugging on his sleeve.

Ji Muye looked down at Lu Nuonuo, who seemed as puffed up as a little pufferfish, and she pointed at Shen Jibai angrily, saying, “He said he wanted to switch moms.”

Jing Zheng didn’t even know what had initially caused the fight.

Ji Chao and Ji Ze were both unwilling to speak up.

It was only through Little Dumpling that everyone found out that it was because Shen Jibai said he wanted to switch moms with Ji Ze, and Ji Ze had refused.

The two boys, not very advanced in years, exchanged a few words back and forth, taunting each other, and in the end, without another word, they just started fighting.

Speaking of this made Lu Nuonuo angry. A child’s possessiveness is very strong; no one wants to share their own mom.

Initially, Ji Ze was jealous when he saw how nicely Lu Xining treated Little Dumpling, and he sulked in silence.

Even Ji Chao, at that time, felt more envious of Lu Nuonuo, wishing that their mom would like him as much as she liked his sister.

It was solely because she was so adorable, so affectionate, and so lovable that he was able to accept this younger sister so quickly.

But who did Shen Jibai think he was?

What right did he have to compete with them for their mom!

Lu Xining didn’t manage to stop them in time.

Little Dumpling had already run over to Shen Jibai and stood in front of him with her hands on her hips, declaring her territory, “Mom is mine and my brother’s!”

Shen Jibai looked down sadly, clutching the fabric of his shirt near his left wrist with his right hand, his body radiating unstoppable sorrow and grief.

Could he really not switch moms?

But he really liked their mom so much; she was so impressive, she would protect her children, she wouldn’t hit or scold them, not like his own mom who only knew how to berate him in all sorts of ways.

When Lu Xining went to pull her daughter away, she noticed the clearly overly thin figure of Shen Jibai.

Though he was tall, he was very skinny, and her medical instincts told her something was off with Shen Jibai.

He suddenly looked up and said to Lu Xining, “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry.”

After he spoke, Shen Jibai lowered his head once more; he just really wanted a mom who would be good to him.

When the woman saw Ji Muye approaching, her attitude immediately changed; she had already thought about what compensation she would demand from the president of the Shi’an Group.

Hearing her son apologize, she immediately changed her expression and scolded, “Why are you apologizing to her? You’re the victim, don’t you understand?”

Before Lu Xining had a clear understanding of the situation, she hadn’t said anything to Shen Jibai. She picked up Little Dumpling, went to sit down on a nearby chair, while Ji Muye also questioned her two sons.

She bowed her head and held her daughter’s hand, looking at her slightly long fingernails, and indeed, they had gotten a bit long.

Nuonuo, realizing her mistake, obediently bowed her head.

She drew her hand back and admitted her fault, “Nuonuo was wrong.”

“Nuonuo, what this brother did was wrong, but you also can’t just go scratching people.”

Every time Lu Xining thought about her daughter rushing to fight someone half taller than herself, she felt a shudder of fear.

If Shen Jibai had just pushed her forcefully, thinking of this made Lu Xining even more fearful, and she held Little Dumpling tighter in her embrace.

Lu Nuonuo clearly sensed her mother’s emotions, stretched out her hand to hold Lu Xining’s cheeks, and leaned in to kiss her cheek.

“Nuonuo is good, I won’t fight anymore.”

“Mommy, don’t be sad.”

Ji Muye knew that despite Ji Ze’s playful nature, he definitely wasn’t the type to start fights for no good reason. Even if Shen Jibai had mentioned switching moms, Ji Ze wouldn’t have burst into a fight so impulsively.

Surely, there had to be other reasons.

“Dad, Shen Jibai said, the reason Mom will divorce you… is because of me… because in the video, I said I liked Aunt Xixi.”

Ji Ze, who had been holding back his tears, suddenly burst into crying. His crying was restrained and suppressed; he didn’t even dare let Lu Xining hear.

Ji Ze curled up in Ji Muye’s arms, burying his small face in his shoulder sobbing silently, “Dad, is it because of what I said, that Mom will divorce you, that she won’t want me and my brother anymore?”

Ji Muye’s heart clenched into a ball when he heard the child’s words.

He gently patted Ji Ze’s slightly trembling back and affirmed, “No, it’s not because of you.”

“Mom and Dad are divorcing because Dad did something wrong, and it has nothing to do with Xiao Ze or Xiao Chao.”

He glanced at his older son and added, “You both are Mom and Dad’s good children, no matter what happens, Mom and Dad will never stop loving you, so don’t be sad, okay?”

Jing Zheng had never seen Ji Muye being so tender and comforting his two sons, and his rigid impression of him shifted slightly.

So, he isn’t just good at cosplaying a fridge, he thought; when facing his sons, he actually exhibits paternal love.

With this in mind, Jing Zheng looked towards Lu Xining, who was comforting her daughter, noting how clear the division of labor was between the two: one to console the sons and the other to cajole the daughter, seemingly no hint of a divorced couple.

Moreover, he always felt that Lu Xining, who had returned from Yunqiao Village, seemed different in some way, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on what it was.

Shen Jibai, who was harshly grabbed by the flesh of his arm by his biological mother, looked like a porcelain doll with no sense of pain—his gaze constantly on Lu Nuonuo and Ji Ze, Ji Chao, envying them for having such wonderful parents.

They not only had a gentle and strong mother but also a father who was willing to squat down and listen to them, while he had nothing.

If only…

They could be his parents too…

After hearing Lu Xining’s words, Lu Nuonuo also realized she had been wrong, and she got down from her mother’s embrace again, taking out her favorite pink candy from her small candy bag and handing it to Shen Jibai.

“I’m sorry, big brother, Nuonuo shouldn’t have grabbed you.”

“Here’s a candy for you, it’s really sweet.”

Shen Jibai stared dully at Lu Nuonuo’s tender palm holding the pink candy, its packaging exquisite and looking very tasty.

Just as he was about to reach for the candy, he felt the flesh of his back being viciously twisted by his mother, causing his face to scrunch up in pain.

The woman’s face was fearsome, and it frightened Lu Nuonuo so much that she almost dropped the candy in her hand.

The woman leaned close to Shen Jibai’s ear and warned him, “Don’t you dare spoil mommy’s plans, or else… mommy will no longer want you as her son!”

Shen Jibai stared at the three candies that had fallen to the ground, his eyes full of regret.

Lu Nuonuo was so scared by the woman’s expression that she quickly withdrew to Lu Xining’s embrace, shrinking her neck and saying she was frightened.

Lu Xining had also seen everything the woman did to Shen Jibai. She was, after all, his mother, and as an outsider, it wasn’t right for her to get involved.

But child abuse is a serious crime.

She might not be able to act, but that doesn’t mean the police can’t.

The woman was negotiating terms with Ji Muye.

She started with a demand for three hundred million in compensation, claiming Shen Jibai was her only son, and that even a minor bump or bruise would distress her considerably.

Ji Chao, Ji Ze, are now in the same kindergarten as Shen Jibai, and all three are classmates who see each other every day.

If today’s incident was not handled properly, it wouldn’t be good for any of the children later on.

To Ji Muye’s billions in assets, three hundred million was a trivial amount, but paying it would be tantamount to admitting the incident was Ji Ze and Lu Nuonuo’s fault.

On his way here, Ji Muye had already obtained the amusement park’s surveillance footage, which confirmed Shen Jibai was the first to start the altercation.

The woman was gleefully waiting for Ji Muye to pay up when she heard her son say, “I don’t need it.”

Smack!

Shen Jibai’s face was struck so hard that it twisted to the side, his ears ringing.

“Since when can children interrupt adult conversations?”

Shen Jibai turned pale as he was slapped by his mother in front of his classmates, a deep wound to his young pride.

But Ji Ze, wiping away his tears, suddenly stepped forward to defend Shen Jibai.

“You’re lying, you always hit Shen Jibai, and his arm is covered in bruises from you, you’re not his mother at all!”
