Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 97: Framed

“Be careful.” Ji Buwang immediately tried to stop her.

“It’s fine.” Mu Jingzhe’s eyes turned cold. She blocked the door with the broom, seized the scissors, and pinned the chubby mother to the ground.

The chubby mother couldn’t move. “Let go of me!”

“Are you awake now? If you’re awake and you stop biting people, I’ll let go of you!”

Seeing that the chubby mother couldn’t calm down for a while, Mu Jingzhe asked Ji Buwang to call the police.

In the end, the chubby mother was taken away by the police. In her situation, Mu Jingzhe definitely could have pursued the matter.

However, when she thought of the cause of it, she decided to forget it in the end. She only hoped that the woman wouldn’t cause them trouble again in the future.

Shao Xi had been looking pale all this while, so Mu Jingzhe comforted him. “It’s not your fault. She just feels terrible, so she has to find an excuse. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to live with herself.”

Mu Jingzhe thought that this matter was finally over, but she didn’t expect that the trouble was far from over.

Not long after the chubby mother was taken away, there was another knock on the door. This time, it was the police. “Are you Mu Jingzhe?”

“That’s me. Is there anything else?”

“He’s Shao Xi, right? I might have to trouble you to come with us to cooperate with the investigation.” action

“Why do you need them to cooperate with the investigation?” Ji Buwang asked in dissatisfaction.

“You’ll know when we get there.”

When they arrived at the police station, they found out that the chubby mother had accused Shao Xi of pushing her son.

Although the police was skeptical, this wasn’t something to joke about. After hearing such an important clue, they had come to inquire about it.

Mu Jingzhe was speechless when she heard the accusation. “When he fell down, we were right below and saw him fall with our own eyes. Shao Xi was also with us the entire time. How could he possibly have run up there and pushed someone?

“She’s deliberately framing Shao Xi. She’s taking her anger out on him!”

At the time, there had been many people at the scene, so there were many witnesses. Soon, the chubby mother’s accusation was proven to be pure slander.

When the investigation was over, Mu Jingzhe was about to leave with Shao Xi, but the chubby mother refused to give up.

“What are you doing? Why are you letting the culprit leave? Hurry up and arrest him. Give him the death sentence! My son was killed by him. How can you let him go!

“Did you collude with her? Did she bribe you? Listen to me, if you dare let them go today, I’ll sue you for collusion and inaction!”

The police felt helpless after meeting such a lunatic. They explained a few times, but she wouldn’t hear any of it.

“I said he killed him, and that is it. I saw it with my own eyes. He’s my son’s murderer. If you don’t lock him up, they’ll escape tonight. If you people can’t find him after he flees, let’s see who’s going to take responsibility!”

Mu Jingzhe looked at her and knew that she had gone completely crazy. Her stubbornness was beyond redemption.

“Let’s go.” Mu Jingzhe wrapped her arms around Shao Xi’s shoulders and got ready to leave. Unexpectedly, she heard something and sensed that something was amiss a second later.

She turned around and saw that the chubby mother had freed herself from the police officer’s hold on her and pounced on Shao Xi with red eyes.

“I’ll kill you!” Mu Jingzhe’s expression changed as she swiftly grabbed Shao Xi.

The chubby mother missed. When she turned around, she was stopped by Ji Buwang.

Ji Buwang hadn’t expected her to attack Shao Xi mercilessly. The chubby mother screamed repeatedly.

The few policemen around were also furious. They went forward and grabbed the chubby mother again. This time, they didn’t show any mercy to her out of compassion.

“Stop it. Don’t think that we’ll keep tolerating you just because you’re the victim’s mother.”

“Let go of me! Get out of the way! If you don’t do anything, I’ll do it myself. I want to kill him. I want him to pay with his life!”

A deranged expression appeared on the chubby mother’s face. She glared at Shao Xi with red eyes filled with killing intent, like a demon from hell.

Shao Xi’s face turned pale, and his body trembled.

Mu Jingzhe hugged Shao Xi and said, “Don’t look, Little Xi. Don’t look at her. She’s already gone crazy.”

She was very pitiful now that her son had died, but she shouldn’t have blamed Shao Xi for it.

The evil and despicable side of human nature had been thoroughly revealed in front of Shao Xi in just one day. Mu Jingzhe covered Shao Xi’s ears to prevent him from hearing all this. She looked at the chubby mother, who was still screaming, and then at the policemen beside her.

“I want to file a police report!”

The police officer beside her was stunned. “What? You… want to file a police report?”

“What? I can’t file a police report just because she’s pitiful? She slandered us first and now she’s attacking and threatening us. Everything happened right under your noses. Aren’t you going to do something about this?”

“We will. We didn’t say we wouldn’t do anything. It’s just—”

“It’s just what? She’s already crazy, so she can do anything. If you still don’t do anything about it, will you wait for another victim to appear? When that time comes, who will pay for it with their life?”

The chubby mother’s crazy actions and her attack on Shao Xi had completely angered Mu Jingzhe.

Pity wasn’t a medallion for death exemption. Right now, she only wanted to protect Shao Xi.

No one could refute Mu Jingzhe’s words. Everyone had seen many people go crazy because of accidents or other reasons. This mother was indeed capable of doing anything.

In order to ensure Shao Xi’s safety and make the chubby mother calm down completely, the police decided to keep an eye on her. This was also for her own good.

Amidst the chubby mother’s indignant screams, Mu Jingzhe left the police station with Shao Xi and Ji Buwang.

“She’s already gone crazy. Little Xi, don’t listen to her.”

“Yes, Little Xi. She’s just spouting nonsense. She’s in hell herself, so she wants to drag you to hell too. If you listen to her, you’ll be playing right into her hands. Pay no heed to what she says.” Ji Buwang also tried to advise Shao Xi.

This reasoning was reasonable, but to Shao Xi, this was still too heavy a burden. Fortunately, Mu Jingzhe was beside him.

Shao Xi held Mu Jingzhe’s hand and, feeling the warmth of her body, he nodded.

He couldn’t let his mother worry either. He didn’t want her eyes to be filled with worry.

Although Shao Xi tried his best to be calm, it was impossible for him to sleep well after going through so much.

Mu Jingzhe didn’t turn off the light and stayed with Shao Xi. Only after midnight did Shao Xi fall asleep.

However, after he fell asleep, he had a nightmare, and so did Mu Jingzhe. She had a nightmare too.

Before dawn, Mu Jingzhe looked at Shao Xi’s open eyes and sighed.

These five children’s fates were really bumpy. To think they would even encounter such a thing at a competition. It was as if the heavens were deliberately testing them to make things difficult for them.

Mu Jingzhe said a lot to comfort Shao Xi, and in the end, she brought up the topic of the meaning of writing.

“Things like this happen in the world. That’s why you need someone to write about them to warn the world, right? So you’re not wrong, Little Xi.”

Shao Xi’s eyes lit up. He had genuinely found a reason to write. “That’s right. Why didn’t I think of that? Can I write more in the future so that parents and students can read about this and not do anything foolish?”

“Yes, that’s right.” Mu Jingzhe immediately nodded in support. It was good that he had found an aim.

Just now, she had been afraid that Shao Xi would be traumatized and afraid of writing due to this incident.

“Got it. I’ll write more in the future.”

“Alright, I support you!” Mu Jingzhe clenched her fists.

Mu Jingzhe hadn’t expected that Shao Xi’s future would take a turn at this point.
