The Crippled Boss Loves Me Chapter 123 - I Thought You Didn’t Want Me Anymore

Chapter 123 I Thought You Didn’t Want Me Anymore
The more Ji Qian thought about it, the more annoyed she became. “Sister-in-law, hurry up and check the greenhouse, especially Old Master Zhuang’s orchid. I have a feeling that this woman is up to no good.”
“I’ve already checked just now. The orchid is fine.” Shen Hanxing still maintained her vigilance. She then said, “Perhaps she really got lost and walked here.”
“I don’t care if she’s lost or not, I think we should replace the guards.” Ji Yan’s said, “I was careless. I asked Assistant Chen to arrange two reliable people to guard the entrance of the greenhouse.”
Normally, only the Ji family and the gardener would come to the greenhouse. They had not been on guard previously. Now that such a thing had happened, it was a wake-up call for everyone. No matter what, Shen Hanxing had already spread the word at the banquet. She assured that nothing would happen to Old Master Zhuang’s orchid.!!
Shen Hanxing nodded and agreed with his suggestion.
Upstairs, Ji Mo closed the door with a dark expression. He turned to look at Wu Tong, who was looking around his room, and asked, “What exactly are you here for? What is your purpose in going to the greenhouse?”
“What other purpose could I possibly have?” Wu Tong sat on the bed nonchalantly. “Didn’t I already say that I’m here to look for you? I’m just got lost.”
“Is there any point in lying in front of me?” Ji Mo suddenly stood up and grabbed her wrist. “What exactly are you planning to do?”
“Ji Mo, watch you tone!” Wu Tong flew into a rage and slapped Ji Mo without hesitation. “I’m your mother, not a criminal!”
“Slap!” Ji Mo was slapped so hard that he lost his balance. A clear palm print could be seen on his pale face. Wu Tong turned a blind eye to it. She was still hooting. “You still dare to question me? I haven’t asked you yet. Who asked you to take a leave of school? Do you still acknowledge me as your mother? It’s harder for me to see you now than it is to ascend to the heavens. You were in my belly for ten months. I had endured so much pain to give birth to you. Do I have to beg to meet you now?”
“I’m not disowning you.” Ji Mo frowned. “I’m not happy staying at school. Even if I’m not at school, I’ll still come and see you.”
The reason why Wu Tong was so obsessed with school was that she lived only one street away from the school. If she wanted to see Ji Mo, she only needed to wait on the way home from school. It was convenient and did not take up too much of her time.
“You all grown up now, don’t you? And you don’t even listen to your mother.” Wu Tong snorted coldly. “I wonder what kind of bewitching potion your sister-in-law gave you. I think you forget that I’m your mother.”
“I didn’t.” Ji Mo lowered his head. “Mom, don’t talk like that.”
“Keep protecting her!” Wu Tong rolled her eyes and suddenly softened her tone to reveal a loving side. “Ji Mo, no matter what, you’re still my son. Everything that I do is for your own good. Do you believe in me?”
“For my own good?” Ji Mo raised his head to look at her. Suddenly, he shifted his eyes away as if he was hurt by the loving expression on her face. “Mom, did you really love me?”
“How can you say that? Do you know how difficult it is for a woman to bear a child?” Wu Tong’s face was filled with sadness. “It was ten months. I couldn’t sleep well every night. You weren’t a good boy back then. You were tossing and turning in mom’s stomach every day. When you were in my belly, I was fat and swollen. There’s still a scar on my stomach that gave birth to you. You’re a piece of me that fell off my body. How can I not love
you?”
Wu Tong’s words were extremely emotional, and there were even tears in her eyes. “Look, I can’t even wear a beautiful midriff dress because of you. But now you’re questioning me. It’s like you’re stabbing a knife into my heart!”
“I…” Ji Mo was at a loss. When he was growing up, he did not get any love from his mother except scolding and disdain. This was the first time that his mother had poured her heart and soul into him, as if she loved him deeply. Ji Mo couldn’t help but reveal a hint of bewilderment and helplessness in his eyes.
“I know that I made mistakes in the past.” Wu Tong lowered her eyes, she wiped away her tears. “But when I gave birth to you, I wasn’t even twenty years old. I was still a little girl. After I gave birth to you, I found out that your father’s words were all lies. He had no intention of marrying me at all. Do you know how hard it was for me to know this truth?”
“But even so, I still chose to raise you up.” Wu Tong sniffled. “This is also my first time being a mother. I don’t have any experience. I might not have done well in many aspects. Can you forgive me?”
“Mom…” Ji Mo’s lips trembled. After a long while, she lowered her head with reddened eyes. “I’ve never blamed you. I know that it’s all dad’s fault.”
