Chapter 311: The Water’s Been Poisoned?

Shao Qiyun revealed a cruel smile. “Even if you refuse to acknowledge me, I’m still your mother. No one can change this fact! Don’t think that just because you are somewhat successful, you can do whatever you want! Why are you so promising? It’s all because I gave birth to you. It’s all thanks to me that you’re being called a genius!”
“No way. I was killed by you a long time ago. I became successful because of Mommy Jingzhe. It has nothing to do with you. If it wasn’t for Mommy, I might not have known how to speak, let alone do anything else. You’re only acknowledging me now because you know that I’m a child of the Ji Family and I can also earn money. You just want to reap benefits without working hard. I won’t give you such a chance. You’re not worthy!”
Xiao Wu finally said what was in his heart. This was the first time he expressed himself so fully, and he felt refreshed.
Shao Qiyun was a little stunned. She hadn’t expected Xiao Wu to say these words himself. Didn’t he use to be very timid in the past?
This was also one of the reasons Shao Qiyun hated Xiao Wu. She had thought that Xiao Wu was really timid. He would tremble in fear just after getting one glare from her. He didn’t know how to speak and he was timid. He was like an unpresentable rat. Every time she saw him, she would feel increasingly vexed.
She had thought that Xiao Wu would still hide behind Mu Jingzhe and the others, just like he did in the past.
However, she hadn’t expected Xiao Wu to stand up and express his thoughts clearly. He even looked at her as if he wasn’t afraid of her anymore.
He had clearly still been afraid when he had seen her previously, as he had hidden behind Mu Jingzhe for no reason.
Why wasn’t he afraid this time? Why wasn’t he even crying anymore?
Shao Qiyun was surprised and didn’t say anything, but Xiao Wu had finally said what was on his mind. After exhaling, he couldn’t help but look at Mu Jingzhe. “Mommy, I spoke well, right?”
His little face was filled with joy, and his expression made it obvious that he was asking for praise.
Mu Jingzhe clapped generously. “Yes. You’re right, Xiao Wu.” She looked proud and genuinely happy.
“That’s right, Xiao Wu spoke very well.” Shao Xi and Little Bei clapped together. “This is what you have to do in the future. Don’t be afraid!”
“Mm, I’m not afraid anymore!”
Xiao Wu clenched his little fist and looked straight at Shao Qiyun. He no longer avoided his fear. He just faced her directly.
“Xiao Wu, you’re amazing.” Mu Jingzhe stroked Xiao Wu’s head and gave him a reward in time.
“Mm.” Xiao Wu nodded and waved his little fist again. “When I’m a little older, I won’t need my Mommy, Brothers, and Sister to protect me anymore. I’ll just knock her down… and face her!”
Xiao Wu was very envious of Mu Jingzhe’s strength. If he had the same strength, he wouldn’t be afraid of anything.
However, it was fine even if he didn’t. “Mommy, I want to learn how to box from Daddy. I want to train my body and become stronger. I want to defeat the bad guys!”
Xiao Wu stood up as he announced this. His entire body was filled with courage, as if the person standing in front of him wasn’t Shao Qiyun but a big baddie or a demon king.
Shao Qiyun was stunned at first, but when she saw this, her face turned green from anger.
“What do you mean? What do you take me for?!”
“What else? A whetstone.” Shao Xi curled his lips and praised Xiao Wu for doing a good job.
Why would someone as inferior as Shao Qiyun be welcomed in or even have the right to sit down and talk to them? First of all, it was indeed time to sit down and have a good chat. They couldn’t seek violent ways to solve the issue every single time.
Although Mu Jingzhe was strong, she wasn’t a barbarian. It wouldn’t be good if her neighbors were frightened by her Herculean strength. Besides, unless Shao Qiyun was beaten to death, she would continue to get up after a while or when there were greater benefits to enjoy.
Therefore, she should make Shao Qiyun calm down and hear their answer with her own ears. She should let Xiao Wu speak his mind, train his ability to express himself, and bolster his courage.
That’s right, she had to train Xiao Wu to be brave. Because he hadn’t been able to speak since he was young and the environment he had grown up in wasn’t good, Xiao Wu was actually very timid. Compared to his four siblings, he was much more timid.
Mu Jingzhe didn’t want Shao Qiyun to become Xiao Wu’s nightmare. She hoped that he could face her bravely and get over her. From now on, he wouldn’t have to be afraid of Shao Qiyun when he saw her. He had to have the courage to face Shao Qiyun.
After all, this was the real world, and they couldn’t really kill Shao Qiyun or lock her up. Therefore, Shao Qiyun might still appear in Xiao Wu’s world from time to time, and he couldn’t be frightened when he saw her.
Since this was already a fact that couldn’t be changed, she would change the nature of the matter. Shao Qiyun should be regarded as Xiao Wu’s whetstone and a tool to train him.
Xiao Wu hadn’t disappointed her. He had stood up bravely and even dared to express his thoughts. It was great.
Upon hearing that, Shao Qiyun almost spat out a mouthful of blood. “How… How can you do this!”
How could they humiliate her like this? She had thought that they were afraid, but in the end, they had only asked her to sit down so that Xiao Wu could say these words!
When he saw Shao Qiyun’s face turn green from anger, Shao Xi clapped his hands. “Go on, keep feeling angry and agitated. It would be even better if you could just die from anger.”
Shao Qiyun: “Shao Xi, you b*stard!”
Shao Xi curled his lips. “Looks like you haven’t been angered to death yet. You’re full of energy. But seeing how ugly your expression is, this is something worth celebrating. Shall we set off firecrackers to celebrate later?”
Shao Xi’s ability to anger people had really improved.
Shao Qiyun’s chest was really tight, and her mouth was dry. Without thinking much, she picked up the cup beside her and gulped down the water, forcing herself to calm down.
“That was my water.” Little Bei was dissatisfied.
Mu Jingzhe frowned. “No need to be afraid, Little Bei.”
Shao Qiyun froze at the sight of the cup. Why had she drunk it? “You… You didn’t poison the water, did you?”
As she spoke, she even imitated how people reacted on television when they drank poison. She opened her mouth and stuck a finger inside to induce vomiting. Mu Jingzhe, who was beside her, was speechless. “If it’s really poisonous, it’ll be useless even if you spit it out now.”
“Take the cup away later.” Since Shao Qiyun had drunk the water, Little Bei definitely wouldn’t want it anymore. She would just throw it away as a reward for Shao Qiyun cooperating with the performance today.
Shao Qiyun was still thinking about the poison when she heard Shao Xi say, “You even earned a cup on this trip. Not bad.”
Shao Qiyun was even angrier when she heard that. “Who cares about your lousy cup!” She picked up the cup, wanting to smash it, but Mu Jingzhe looked at her coldly. “Try smashing it if you dare. Last time, I left your hands and feet for the debt collectors. If they can’t do it, don’t tell me you think I can’t either?”
Shao Qiyun froze immediately. She waved the cup twice, but in the end, she put the cup back with a livid expression.
“Listen to me, Mu Jingzhe. Don’t think that you can continue to be smug. The Ji Family can’t ignore me.”
“They will indeed take care of you.” Shao Qihai returned and looked at Mu Jingzhe. “I contacted Ji Buwang. He said that since Shao Qiyun is here, they will come over soon. If you want to talk, let’s clear things up at once.”
A smug look instantly appeared in Shao Qiyun’s eyes. See? The Ji Family was going to talk to her. This time, she would definitely seize the opportunity. Shao Qiyun looked at Xiao Wu, her eyes filled with coldness. When he landed in her hands, she would see if he still dared to be arrogant.
Her eyes were cold and scary, but Xiao Wu didn’t dodge like before. As he faced this malice, even though he was afraid, he still glared back fiercely.
