Chapter 241 - Who Is Xiao Wu’s Biological Father?



Chapter 241: Who Is Xiao Wu’s Biological Father?

Shao Qiyun had really washed her hands of the child entirely and was since relieved from this burden. She really felt that he had nothing to do with her anymore.

However, she couldn’t go to school again. The teacher was a person with principles and didn’t leak this information. The news hadn’t spread, but since the teacher had already discovered this, it was impossible for Shao Qiyun to continue going to school. She could only drop out.

However, Shao Qiyun was afraid of seeing Xiao Wu from then on. In particular, when she heard that he couldn’t speak, she was even more disgusted. If she could, she wouldn’t go back. She rarely ever went home.

Shao Qiyun detested Xiao Wu, even though he had nothing to do with her anymore.

Shao Qihai had kept his word. Ever since he had brought Xiao Wu back, he had decided to be responsible for him. Even if he was criticized, he would give Xiao Wu an identity and raise him.

Because he didn’t want Xiao Wu to know about his parentage, even when Mu Xue had forced him, he hadn’t said who Xiao Wu’s mother was or revealed Xiao Wu’s identity.

Even at the risk of not getting married, he had guarded the secret of Xiao Wu’s parentage. Everyone thought that Xiao Wu was his son.

However, he hadn’t expected that after Xiao Wu learned to speak and turned out to be a musical genius who had revealed his brilliance at such a young age, Shao Qiyun would start to have designs on him.

He could read her intentions and, in order to protect Xiao Wu, went to warn Shao Qiyun, wanting her to squash the thought. Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu had heard him.

When Mu Jingzhe heard that, her face went blank. There was only one thought on her mind. Indeed, television dramas were never as exciting as reality.

She wiped her face. “Wait. Let me digest this and calm down.”

Actually, even though this was unexpected, after thinking about it carefully, one could find some clues. Shao Qiyun’s attitude toward Xiao Wu was indeed very strange and different.

Shao Qihai nodded, then noticed that there was still straw on Mu Jingzhe’s head. Just as he was about to tell Mu Jingzhe, he heard Mu Jingzhe suddenly say, “After talking so much about Xiao Wu’s mother, nothing has been mentioned about Xiao Wu’s father. Just who is his biological father?”

Since he knew who his biological mother was, Xiao Wu had already suffered a blow. He might as well know who his biological father was and accept it all at once.

Shao Qihai shook his head. “I don’t know either. I’ve asked this question before, but she said that she doesn’t know either.”

Mu Jingzhe: “Doesn’t know? This answer is anything but reassuring. What if one day someone with an unexpected identity suddenly comes out and says that he’s Xiao Wu’s father?” Wouldn’t that be the heavens toying with them?

However, perhaps Xiao Wu could accept it more calmly after this cold shower?

Shao Qihai hadn’t expected Mu Jingzhe to have such a reaction, but after hearing what she said, he felt that it was very possible. He thought for a moment and said, “I don’t think that will happen. Shao Qiyun really might not know who it is. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have such an attitude.”

“I hope so.” Mu Jingzhe sighed. “Xiao Wu is very traumatized now and can’t accept this fact. He’s even afraid that he’ll become a bad person.”

Shao Qihai smiled bitterly. “I originally decided not to let him know, but in the end, he still found out.”

“It’s not only Xiao Wu. Given the current situation, Shao Dong and the others must have sensed it too. Should we tell them? I keep feeling that we have to tell them. Sooner or later, they will find out. We have to tell them to spend more time with Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu is sensitive, and it wasn’t easy for him to become cheerful. Now that he has popped his head out of his shell, we can’t let him shrink back in again.”

The company and acceptance of Shao Dong and the others would lessen some of Xiao Wu’s psychological burden.

“Then tell them.” Shao Qihai quickly nodded with a complicated expression. “Thank you, Jingzhe. I’m lucky you’re around. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know what to do.”

It hadn’t been easy for Xiao Wu’s heart to open up during this period of time, but in the end, Xiao Wu had to find out about his past. When he found out that Shao Qihai wasn’t even his biological father, if it weren’t for Mu Jingzhe, Xiao Wu might have kept it to himself. Shao Qihai wouldn’t know how to face the children either.

“It’s too early for you to thank me now. The biggest problem—Shao Qiyun—hasn’t been solved yet.” Mu Jingzhe was furious at the thought of what she had done to Xiao Wu. “How can there be such a person in this world? I didn’t like her in the past, but I didn’t expect her to be hundreds of times more disgusting than I thought. My fist can’t help but clench at the mention of her.”

Mu Jingzhe took a deep breath. “Will she come and acknowledge Xiao Wu? Or even snatch Xiao Wu away?” She could think of ways to comfort Xiao Wu, but the problem now was mainly Shao Qiyun. Who knew what she would do?

When Shao Qihai heard this question, he really couldn’t answer for a moment because he didn’t know what kind of choice Shao Qiyun would make.

In the past, Xiao Wu hadn’t known how to speak, so she had avoided him like the plague. But now that Xiao Wu had become successful and she owed other people an amount that would increasingly snowball due to the interest, who knew if she would really come to snatch Xiao Wu just to repay the debt?

“This won’t do. We have to deal with this lunatic. We can’t be this unprepared.”

Xiao Wu detested her very much, and Shao Qiyun was a really awful person. If Xiao Wu fell into her hands, he would end up in a worse state than in the book. Who could bear to let adorable Xiao Wu’s life be ruined?

At that moment, Mu Jingzhe hated that she didn’t have supernatural powers. She wished she could change the fact that Xiao Wu was Shao Qiyun’s son. Or perhaps there was a way to throw Shao Qiyun into another dimension and not let her appear again.

However, Mu Jingzhe wasn’t capable of such feats. She thus stood up. “Think of something too. I’ll go tell Shao Dong and the others first so that they have time to digest it.”

The children were sensible, so they shouldn’t hide the matter from them just because they were children. No matter what, it was best to tell them personally than let them hear this from outsiders.

It was Shao Qihai’s turn to guard Xiao Wu while Mu Jingzhe told the other four kids about this.

While Mu Jingzhe had been talking to Shao Qihai, she had slammed the table so hard that the five kids had naturally heard it. However, they hadn’t expected the matter to be so serious. They were naturally shocked, and after the shock subsided, they started to worry. They were about as worried as Mu Jingzhe.

“Will she come to snatch Xiao Wu?”

“I don’t know, but we definitely can’t let her snatch him. You guys will watch over Xiao Wu too. Don’t let him be carried away by Shao Qiyun. I feel lingering fear when I remember that Shao Qiyun even went to look for Xiao Wu alone previously.

“Let’s not leave Xiao Wu alone in the future. No matter what we do, someone has to be with him. Firstly, we can prevent that lunatic Shao Qiyun from looking for him again. Secondly, we can accompany him and counsel him. Xiao Wu can’t quite accept this.”

“If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to accept it either.” Shao Nan pursed his lips. If he was honest, if he were Xiao Wu, he would directly destroy Shao Qiyun and let this secret stay buried forever.

However, this thought was only casual and definitely could not be put into action.

“Xiao Wu is really pitiful.” Little Bei empathized with him. “If it were me, I’d probably die from anger. To think he’s actually her son.”

“If Shao Qiyun dares to come, I’ll beat her until she’s looking for her teeth on the ground!” Shao Xi patted his chest. “I’ll protect Xiao Wu.”

“I’ll do my best to counsel Xiao Wu. No matter what, we have to stop Shao Qiyun.” Shao Dong then looked at Mu Jingzhe. “Mommy, if there’s anything you need help with after this, just tell me.”

“Okay.”
