Chapter 307: Don’t Want to Acknowledge the Ji Family

Ji Buwang said matter-of-factly, “I don’t have many thoughts about it. It’s just that Xiao Wu will be my nephew in the future. He’ll be someone the Ji Family protects from now on.”

As he saw Ji Buwang be so open-minded, Shao Qihai had a complicated look in his eyes.

However, he could now relax. Just as he thought of this, he heard Ji Buwang ask Mu Jingzhe, “Jingzhe, do you think Xiao Wu will blame us? Did I not do well enough in the past? I’ve learned how to interact with children, but I’m still unfamiliar with how to be a father or an uncle.”

Before Mu Jingzhe could figure out how to answer this sudden question, Shao Qihai couldn’t help but ask, “Didn’t you say that nothing has changed? Why are you mentioning words like ‘father’ and ‘uncle’ now? You even want to be his father?”

“I do. Now that my older brother is no longer around, I have to replace him as his father. Won’t it be good for Xiao Wu to have another father? He’ll get more fatherly love. But if he’s unwilling, I’ll continue to be his uncle.”

Actually, if Mu Jingzhe wasn’t in his heart and Shao Qiyun wasn’t so contemptible, he might not have cleared things up. Had it been someone else, he might have let the misunderstanding continue and replaced his older brother as Xiao Wu’s father.

However, Shao Qiyun even wanted to marry him. He only had Mu Jingzhe in his heart and he naturally didn’t want her to misunderstand. That was why he had explained so quickly.

Shao Qihai gritted his teeth. “What do you mean ‘it’d be good to have one more father’? Who has two or three fathers? Xiao Wu only needs one father.”

“Stop arguing. We still have to tell Xiao Wu about this. Xiao Wu just found out about his biological mother’s identity. It hasn’t been long, and now he found out about his biological father too. I wonder what he’s thinking.”

That was true.

“I’ll talk to Xiao Wu about this. I’ll go now.” Mu Jingzhe left the studio.

After walking out, she stood there and calmed down. To be honest, she had learned this news so suddenly that she found it surreal. She was shocked, but now that she had calmed down, she could somewhat accept it.

It was better to be a member of the Ji Family than anyone else. This way, Xiao Wu wouldn’t have to suffer through the torment of this parentage anymore, and he wouldn’t have to worry about other messy biological fathers popping up.

It was actually quite a relief that his father was Ji Buwang’s older brother.

Previously, when Shao Qiyun had said that Ji Buwang was Xiao Wu’s father, her heart had actually jumped to her throat.

Actually, after calming down and thinking about it, she had realized it’d be quite good if Ji Buwang was Xiao Wu’s biological father. But she’d just felt strange.

Uh… Maybe it was because of Shao Qiyun.

Mu Jingzhe walked to the door and knocked. “Xiao Wu, Little Bei, open the door.”

Mu Jingzhe entered the room. Shao Qihai and Ji Buwang looked at each other. “Do you think Xiao Wu will accept it?”

“It’s already done regardless of whether one accepts it or not.” Shao Qihai looked at Ji Buwang. “Speaking of this, you can’t be wrong, right? Don’t you need to confirm it again? What if it later turns out you made a mistake?”

“No.” Ji Buwang shook his head. “My grandfather wouldn’t make such a mistake.”

Grandpa had directly asked him if this was his older brother’s or his child, which meant that he was certain. Besides, now that he thought about it, Xiao Wu was actually similar to the Ji Family in many aspects. Ji Buwang’s taste was similar to his older brother’s, and Xiao Wu’s taste was exactly the same as his.

Also, their hair was the best form of evidence.

When Shao Qihai heard this, he no longer felt conflicted. Ji Buwang couldn’t help but ask Shao Qihai and Xiao Wu about what had happened previously. “Although I know a lot, I feel that I still want to hear more.”

Shao Qihai wouldn’t tell Ji Buwang, so the two of them sat opposite each other in silence for a moment.

Ji Buwang sat for a second and couldn’t help but clear the table for Mu Jingzhe. Shao Qihai watched him and suddenly said, “You just said that you would agree to any request of mine. Then…”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard Ji Buwang reject his idea. “That’s impossible.”

Shao Qihai was speechless. “I haven’t said what I’m thinking yet. Just now, you said you’d do whatever I wanted so long as it was within your means. Now, you’re rejecting me directly.”

“I guessed. You must want to tell me to give up on Jingzhe or something, but that’s impossible.”

Shao Qihai said, looking embarrassed, “How are you so sure that I’d mention this? I might be talking about something else.”

“Then tell me.”

Shao Qihai: “No, I was just joking. I don’t need your gratitude.”

He had not raised Xiao Wu to gain anyone’s gratitude. Besides, he didn’t have the right to ask for any gratitude.

“I wonder how Jingzhe and Xiao Wu are doing…”

Actually, it was quite alright. Although seeing Shao Qiyun again had given Xiao Wu a shock, and the identity of his biological father had also been revealed later, Xiao Wu was much calmer after the previous experience.

Mu Jingzhe skipped over the things that children shouldn’t listen to and basically explained everything else. “This is what happened. Unless something is very wrong, Teacher Ji should be your biological uncle.”

Mu Jingzhe looked at Xiao Wu, who nodded but didn’t say anything. “Xiao Wu, you can tell me what you’re thinking.”

“Will they want me to leave Mommy and go to their house?” Xiao Wu was only concerned about this.

“No, Teacher Ji just said that your preference is what matters the most. They won’t force you.”

“Then it’s not important.” Xiao Wu lowered his head. “It doesn’t matter if they’re my biological family or not. As long as they don’t come looking for me, I’ll stay with Mommy, my siblings, and Daddy.”

He was living a good life now, so he didn’t want to acknowledge the Ji Family.

“What about Teacher Ji? Can he still see you?” Mu Jingzhe asked.

Xiao Wu wanted to say that he didn’t want him around anymore, but at the thought that Teacher Ji treated him very well, he felt a little reluctant. “Teacher Ji is Teacher Ji.”

“Alright, Teacher Ji is indeed Teacher Ji.” Mu Jingzhe laughed and didn’t press Xiao Wu.

Now that the matter was clear, since they had only applied for leave from the production team, Mu Jingzhe still had to bring Little Bei over to film. When Xiao Wu heard that, he immediately said he wanted to join them. He avoided looking at Ji Buwang.

They were on set for an entire day. Xiao Wu basically stuck by Mu Jingzhe’s side, but he kept staring blankly ahead.

Things were fine over on Mu Jingzhe’s side of the production team. Meanwhile, Shao Qihai and Ji Buwang went their separate ways.

Shao Qihai had just left the rental house when Shao Qiyun unexpectedly followed him. She had been kicked out, but she hadn’t gone far and had been hiding near the rental house.

“Second Brother.”

“Why are you still here? I told you not to have any designs on Xiao Wu. Stop daydreaming. Get lost if you don’t want to die.”

Shao Qiyun shuddered and gritted her teeth, still unwilling to give up. “Second Brother, you don’t have to be so hostile. Things are different now. We can work together.

“Think about it. If I marry Ji Buwang, no one will snatch Mu Jingzhe from you. Wouldn’t this be good for you? This way, us siblings will get what we want. You and I working together is definitely mutually beneficial.”

Shao Qiyun thought that she could persuade Shao Qihai, but in the end, Shao Qihai only looked at her like she was an idiot. “Stop fanning the flames. I’ll give you one last piece of advice. Stop having designs on the Ji Family. Besides, Ji Buwang really isn’t Xiao Wu’s biological father. The person you want to marry is already dead.”

Shao Qiyun looked at Shao Qihai’s back and stomped her feet. “You still want to lie to me even now? The person I was with that night was definitely Ji Buwang!”
