Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs Chapter 140 – I… I Will Be Responsible for You

Chapter 140: I… I Will Be Responsible for You

On the other side, Mu Jingzhe waited until she almost fell asleep before she finally heard a commotion.

“That’s great. The kids are finally back!”

Tang Moling: “…”

That was not right. He had been waiting for Mu Jingzhe until she couldn’t stand it anymore and made advances on him. Instead of that, now someone had come looking for her?

How did Mu Jingzhe manage to hold herself back? What was going on? At that moment, Tang Moling felt a trace of regret. If he had known, he wouldn’t have put on airs and missed this opportunity.

As Tang Moling was feeling puzzled and regretful, Mu Jingzhe had already gotten up. The first thing she had to do was get dressed. Otherwise, it would be bad if they saw her looking disheveled.

Afraid that Tang Moling would see her after she took the shirt off his eyes, Mu Jingzhe thought for a while and turned Tang Moling around so that he was facing the wall. She placed her leg on his shoulder, not allowing him to turn around or move. Only then did she remove the shirt from his head and put it on.

Although she was wearing a small singlet beneath, and many people in the modern world wore them outside, she still had to be careful.

After putting it on, Mu Jingzhe felt that it wasn’t as painful as before. Her allergy symptoms were fading.

Tang Moling: “What are you doing?”

“Little Bei and the rest are here.” Mu Jingzhe shared the news happily. After sharing, she looked at Tang Moling and suddenly frowned. “Wait, you’re also here. We can’t let anyone discover that we were locked up together!”

If someone were to see them—a man and a woman—locked up together for such a long time, it would be hard to explain even though they hadn’t done anything.

Mu Jingzhe started thinking about what to do about Tang Moling. Tang Moling understood what she meant. After Mu Jingzhe let go of him, he turned around with difficulty with his hands behind his back and looked at Mu Jingzhe.

This was the first time he had seen Mu Jingzhe clearly after three or four hours. Her face was still a little red, but it was just right.

Under the lights, a beauty looked even more beautiful. That was exactly how Tang Moling felt. His heart was pounding.

The past few hours had finally allowed him to recognize his own feelings. Previously, he had felt conflicted, and his heart had been beating for Mu Jingzhe. However, a voice in his heart kept telling him that the person he liked was Mu Xue.

In fact, that was the truth. From the first time he had seen Mu Xue, he had naturally been attracted to her and had always felt that this was his destiny. However, later on, he had met Mu Jingzhe and hadn’t been able to control his heart. His heart beat wildly for her. He clearly liked Mu Xue, but he couldn’t help but fall in love with Mu Jingzhe.

He had fallen in love with two people at the same time. Previously, he had chosen Mu Xue. He had thought that it would be fine, but after their engagement, he had realized that he couldn’t hide this from his heart.

The accident today had allowed him to fully understand what he wanted.

The destiny of the male and female protagonists changed that night. It was because of this accident that Tang Moling realized his true feelings. He wanted to choose Mu Jingzhe and go crazy for her once.

Even though she had already been married once, even though she was still taking care of those children, his heart was still fluttering like crazy for her.

Seeing how anxious Mu Jingzhe was, Tang Moling said, “Jingzhe, you don’t have to be in such a hurry. Since we’ve been alone for hours, it will be hard to explain things anyway. Why don’t we let nature take its course? I… I’ll take responsibility for you.”

It was the timing that made him choose her. This was probably God’s will.

After Tang Moling said that, he suddenly felt relieved. The pressure that had been weighing on his heart in the past few days suddenly loosened, and he smiled at Mu Jingzhe.

He had thought that Mu Jingzhe would be happy and touched, but he hadn’t expected Mu Jingzhe to look at him strangely without a hint of delight.

“What kind of nonsense are you spouting? What’s hard to explain? I didn’t do anything. You’re even talking about taking responsibility for me? Forget it. Don’t say crazy things.”

Mu Jingzhe didn’t know what had gotten into Tang Moling. She guessed that he must have had a small conflict with Mu Xue. According to the scenes in the book, Tang Moling would occasionally say ambiguous words to make Mu Xue jealous.

Mu Jingzhe couldn’t interfere with the way they chose to spice up their relationship, but he couldn’t drag her into that.

Tang Moling looked at the impatient Mu Jingzhe in disbelief. “You don’t accept?”

To think Mu Jingzhe actually dared to reject him? No way! Was she too thrilled and incredulous, or had she not heard him clearly?

Tang Moling was about to speak when Mu Jingzhe replied, “Accept what? Stop nagging. They’re already here. Wait, I found the place.”

The lights in the mill were still unusually bright. In addition, Shao Nan was meticulous and realized that the corn at home had disappeared. He suspected that Mu Jingzhe had gone to the mill, so he immediately went looking for her.

Mu Jingzhe pricked up her ears and vaguely heard some movements. She also successfully found a place to hide Tang Moling.

Time was tight, so Mu Jingzhe didn’t have any time to untie Tang Moling. She simply bent down and lifted him up.

Tang Moling, who was suddenly being carried in Mu Jingzhe’s arms, was left speechless.

His face was filled with shock, and he really wanted to ask Mu Jingzhe to let go of him. A second later, Mu Jingzhe bent her knees and, with an exertion of force, lifted him onto the millstone.

There happened to be some equipment in front of him that blocked Tang Moling’s figure.

Mu Jingzhe hid him well. “Tang Moling, hold on for a while. Hide first and don’t make a sound.”

Tang Moling was alarmed. “But you can’t leave me here. Let me go.”

Mu Jingzhe was certain that she had heard a commotion outside the door. Seeing Tang Moling drop the ball at this critical moment, she couldn’t help but wave her fist in a threatening manner. “Shut up. Do you want me to stuff a sock in your mouth?”

“You…” Tang Moling choked and shut up, feeling angry.

“Be good and don’t move. I’ll come get you in a while.” Seeing that he had shut up, Mu Jingzhe swiftly walked out. At that moment, the door opened.

“Mommy!”

“Jingzhe!” Shao Qiyang and the kids appeared at the door. “Are you alright?”

“It’s okay, I’m fine.” Mu Jingzhe was afraid that they would discover Tang Moling, so she didn’t let them check. She closed the door and stopped them from entering.

Fortunately, Shao Qiyang and the kids were in a hurry to ask about her condition and didn’t notice her cheap tricks. “Who locked you here?”

A glint flickered across Mu Jingzhe’s eyes. “It must have been Li Hua!”

She had dealt with Li Hua once before, but it was still not enough, especially considering his scheme to lock them up together and take advantage of her. His thoughts were too vicious, and she couldn’t let him off just like that.

Mu Jingzhe knew that it wasn’t Li Hua who had locked the door, but this was definitely related to Li Hua. Perhaps Li Hua had hired someone to lock the door just to confine the two of them in the same place.

Although she had misunderstood and Li Hua had not used that kind of drug, he had deliberately used sesame despite knowing that she was allergic to sesame. This was similarly evil, and it was even more serious, as severe allergies could take a person’s life.

If she had been unlucky, she would have died just like that. Mu Jingzhe wasn’t sure how Li Hua had found out about her allergies. In any case, he had no good intentions. She had to deal with this fellow.

Mu Jingzhe briefly recounted the incident with a few words, including her allergy to sesame and how Li Hua had deliberately used sesame to harm her and even locked her up here. Then, a furious Shao Qiyang and the kids rushed toward Li Hua’s house.
