Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Why did everyone like Mu Jingzhe? Because Mu Jingzhe was always very enthusiastic and warm. Furthermore, she was strong and she actually helped everyone a lot.

Meanwhile, Doctor Ji’s attitude was confusing. In the past, he would long have thought of a way to handle it if someone wooed him like this, but his attitude toward Mu Jingzhe seemed to be more tolerant.

This triggered jealousy in other people who also had a crush on Ji Buwang. It also made the colleagues who had designs on Doctor Ji feel conflicted. However, some of the nurses who were married and only admired Doctor Ji had some heartfelt words to say to Mu Jingzhe after getting chummy with her.

Based on looks, ability, and character, Doctor Ji was a catch. However, he didn’t lack flaws. He actually had a fatal flaw—his mother was extremely unpleasant.

“That mother of his is scary. She finds everyone an eyesore out to steal her son from her. She frequently brings food to Doctor Ji, and everyone is scared of her every time they see her. His father doesn’t care either. Anyway, Doctor Ji is excellent in all aspects, but if you really marry over, it might be a little troublesome.”

The nurses’ words were considered very polite. Actually, what was even more terrifying was that, since he had such parents, his woman’s life might be ruined after she married him. No matter how good the couple’s relationship was, it wouldn’t be able to withstand the ravage of her in-laws.

After all, it was true that Doctor Ji had a good relationship with his parents. His mother was difficult to please alright, but she was truly devoted to her son.

However, the better his relationship with his parents was, the worse it would be for their daughter-in-law.

When Xiao Shiliu heard that, she felt even more worried. She tried her best to persuade Mu Jingzhe to give up and stop chasing after Doctor Ji.

Mu Jingzhe was quite surprised to hear this. In her previous life, she hadn’t experienced such trouble, but in this life, she’d actually have trouble dealing with her parents-in-law.

Mu Jingzhe asked around about Ji Buwang’s family and heard that Ji Buwang had a younger brother. Everyone had rarely heard of the younger brother, but whenever they spoke of Ji Buwang and his parents, they only wondered how that bandit-like mother of his could have given birth to such a charming son. It simply had to be a genetic mutation.

In private, some people even said that Ji Buwang might not be their biological son and must have been picked up from the streets instead. However, this rumor was quickly stopped. Doctor Ji would get mad whenever someone said this in front of him.

After asking around for two days, Mu Jingzhe met the legend herself.

That day, Doctor Ji went to perform surgery as usual. Then, Mu Jingzhe heard that the doctor’s office was quite lively because Doctor Ji’s mother had come again.

Mu Jingzhe immediately went over curiously. When she got closer, she heard a voice praising Ji Buwang. Mu Jingzhe was stunned when she heard that voice and sped up without thinking.

When she saw who it was, she froze in shock.

This person was really familiar. Even though she had changed a lot, she was wearing different clothes, and she looked arrogant, she was still extremely familiar.

This was the person she had called ‘Mom’ her entire life, Li Zhaodi.

Mu Jingzhe was stunned on the spot. As she looked at the female bandit-like woman with her hands on her waist, tears flowed down her cheeks uncontrollably.

It had been many years since she had last seen her mother. In the dead of the night, she kept thinking that there were many places she hadn’t taken her parents to.

Now, she saw her again.

Everyone saw Mu Jingzhe appear. Mommy Ji, who was speaking, sensed everyone’s strange gazes and turned around, only to see Mu Jingzhe crying.

When the other doctors saw Mu Jingzhe cry, they thought that she was crying because Doctor Ji actually had such a terrifying mother.

They were all well aware that Mommy Ji was difficult to deal with. If she learned that another woman who coveted her son had appeared, Mommy Ji would show her might again.

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat on Mu Jingzhe’s behalf. They hadn’t expected that Mommy Ji would feel heartache for some reason when she saw Mu Jingzhe crying.

“Why are you crying? Are you feeling unwell? Tell me, I’ll get my son to treat you. He’s very impressive.”

Before anyone could react, Mommy Ji had already taken out a tissue to wipe her tears.

What was even more shocking was that Mu Jingzhe actually hugged Mommy Ji and called her ‘Mom’. The way she called her ‘Mom’ was loud and touching, making everyone’s jaws drop open in shock.

This was the first time they had seen such a method of acknowledging a parent. To think that just because she liked someone’s son, she had called the mother ‘Mom’ the moment they’d met.

What was even more unbelievable was that Mommy Ji, who would usually immediately shake off such a person, actually responded with an “aye” after being hugged and called ‘Mom’.

When Daddy Ji returned, Mu Jingzhe also called him ‘Dad’. Strangely enough, Daddy Ji was stunned for a moment before responding with an “aye” too.

Both Mommy Ji and Daddy Ji felt very fond of Mu Jingzhe at first sight, so fond of her that it was baffling. They even said, “If only she was our daughter.”

Mu Jingzhe almost cried when she heard that. She hadn’t expected that in this lifetime, Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng would actually be Ji Buwang’s parents.

This was fate.

No wonder everyone said that the mother and son were nothing alike. If bandit-like Li Zhaodi had given birth to a Prince Charming like Ji Buwang, wasn’t it akin to a genetic mutation?

Mu Jingzhe hadn’t expected to see them again in such a way. She also had an inkling who the younger brother was now.

Mu Jingzhe was delighted and blissful, but the employees of the hospital felt like they had seen a ghost. No one would have thought that Mommy Ji, who was a terrifying mother-in-law in everyone’s eyes, would transform into an angel in front of Mu Jingzhe.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was in a daze by the time they left.

Xiao Shiliu, who had come to look for Mu Jingzhe, was also completely dumbfounded. Even though she was still young, she had done her best to take care of Mu Jingzhe. However, this still wasn’t enough in Mommy Ji’s eyes.

“This chicken soup doesn’t look good. I’ll brew some for Jingzhe tomorrow and bring over some bone broth.”

Mommy Ji was afraid that Xiao Shiliu wouldn’t be able to take good care of Mu Jingzhe, so she nagged her. Xiao Shiliu wanted to say something, but she simply didn’t have a chance to interrupt. Upon hearing that Xiao Shiliu had applied for leave to come over, Mommy Ji waved her hand and asked her to go back and just leave Jingzhe in her care.

Xiao Shiliu left in a daze. In her mind, she was thinking that her sister was actually quite smart. By saying that they were ‘destined to be together’, she had actually been talking about winning over Doctor Ji’s parents first.

Perhaps her older sister was planning to get Doctor Ji to follow his parents’ orders regarding marriage. She wanted to curry favor with Mommy Ji to achieve her goal and get together with Doctor Ji. Come to think of it, it wasn’t impossible. Since Doctor Ji and Mommy Ji had a good relationship, this might actually be feasible.

Xiao Shiliu left with the expression of someone who had seen the ways of the adult world.

When Ji Buwang returned from the operation room, he saw his mother holding Mu Jingzhe’s hand affectionately as if they were a family and he was just an outsider.

Sensing something, Mu Jingzhe turned around and saw Ji Buwang. She immediately gave him a brilliant smile.

When Mommy Ji saw Ji Buwang, she stepped forward and grabbed his hand. “Son, you’re back. You’ve worked very hard. Come on, let Mommy introduce you to Jingzhe. I like her a lot and want to acknowledge her as my goddaughter.”

“No!”

“No!”

They shouted in unison.
