Chapter 428 - Sleeping in the Same Bed

Mu Jingzhe still didn’t know that Ji Buwang had discovered her little secret and had decided to seduce her again in the future. After taking Ji Buwang home and making sure that he was fine, she was ready to go back.

Mu Han was also in the capital. Although he hadn’t stopped her from meeting Ji Buwang, she had to go back at night. Otherwise, he would come looking for her directly.

After Mu Jingzhe poured a cup of water for Ji Buwang and placed it at the head of the bed, she saw the little doll that Ji Buwang had placed on another pillow. Her mood instantly became strange and subtle.

She hadn’t expected Ji Buwang to really bring her around often and have her sleep on the pillow next to his at night.

It was clearly just a little doll, but for some reason, she felt like it was her sleeping beside him and sharing a bed with Ji Buwang.

Aside from sharing a bed with him, the little doll might even see his sleeping face and watch him change clothes and other stuff like that…

Wait… Why would she think of him changing clothes?

Could she have already been seduced by Ji Buwang to such an extent? If she continued to think about it, she might just get used to it.

Most importantly, at that moment, Ji Buwang was still lying obediently on the bed, looking utterly defenseless.

Mu Jingzhe patted her face to wake herself up. She was afraid that she would think of strange scenes or do something weird. After giving him a few reminders, she didn’t even dare look at Ji Buwang and left in a hurry.

Ji Buwang noticed Mu Jingzhe’s gaze, but his brain was a little slow. Although he hadn’t drunk too much, he had indeed drunk quite a bit, so it hadn’t occurred to him what was going on before Mu Jingzhe left.

He was a step too late to ask her to stay, so he could only watch her leave. After a moment of dull sadness, he recalled what had happened tonight and his spirits were lifted again.

He had taken Jingzhe to meet a friend. Just the thought of it made him excited, so Ji Buwang couldn’t fall asleep. He tossed and turned, his face turning redder.

“This is my boyfriend.”

“I’m his girlfriend… Girlfriend, boyfriend… That sounds really nice.”

As Ji Buwang spoke, he couldn’t help but chuckle. Then, he couldn’t help kissing Little Jingzhe, who was beside him. “Little Jingzhe, why are you so good at talking? Why are you so sweet?”

After kissing her a few times, he wanted to hold Little Jingzhe’s hand, but he realized that it was too small and couldn’t be held. “I can’t hold your hand because you’re not really Jingzhe, but you might be able to retire soon.”

When the right time came, the real Jingzhe would be on duty and lie beside him instead of the doll. He wouldn’t need this doll to quench his thirst anymore.

“But I won’t forget you just like that. When Jingzhe goes to work, I’ll still keep you by my side.”

While Ji Buwang was rolling around and talking to Little Jingzhe, Mu Jingzhe went back and explained to Mu Han everything before returning to her room.

Previously, when she had packed her luggage, even though she had known that Ji Buwang was in the capital, she had still packed Ji Buwang’s little doll in her luggage.

It felt very different now that she took it out and looked at it.

“Why are you so adorable? Buwang calls the little doll Little Jingzhe, so I’ll call you Little Buwang. Tell me, how do you manage to be so sexy, cute, bold, and shy all at the same time?

“Buwang, Buwang, you’re a contradiction.”

However, this was what made things interesting. Humans had a contradictory nature to begin with. When she thought of everything that had happened in the car, Mu Jingzhe’s face heated up, so she went to wash it.

Looking at Little Buwang, she suddenly couldn’t bear to put the doll down, so she placed it in her pocket.

“So that’s how it feels to carry you around in my pocket.” It really felt like she was carrying Ji Buwang around with her.

After washing up, Mu Jingzhe held Little Buwang and suddenly thought, ‘How would it feel to really sleep with you?’

For the first time, Mu Jingzhe placed Little Buwang on the pillow. After some thought, she even took out a small handkerchief and folded it before gently covering him with it, revealing only his face. “This way, you won’t catch a cold.”

For some reason, she found again the joy she had felt while playing house when she was young. Plus, because it was Little Buwang, the joy was doubled.

Mu Jingzhe sat on the bed and looked at Little Buwang with a smile. It wasn’t until her face was sore from smiling that she reacted and patted her face.

In the past, she had often seen the sweetness of a girl in love on television. Only now did she realize just how sweet it was.

After switching off the light, she lay on the bed and looked beside her. For some reason, she felt like she was sleeping with Ji Buwang.

She fell asleep and had a beautiful dream at night. When she woke up in the morning, Mu Jingzhe was about to change out of her pajamas when she suddenly felt that something was wrong. She turned to look at Little Buwang and thought for a moment before covering it with a handkerchief.

“You’re not supposed to peek.”

As Mu Jingzhe washed her face, she started missing Ji Buwang and wanted to see him. She felt like it had been three years since they had last met.

In the end, as she was thinking about this, Ji Buwang showed up. When Mu Han opened the door, he saw that Ji Buwang’s countenance was a little dark. “Why are you here?”

“I want to see Jingzhe.”

“Didn’t you just meet yesterday…” Before Mu Han could finish speaking, Mu Jingzhe ran out with a face full of water. “Ji Buwang!”

Their gazes met. Mu Han gritted his teeth and blocked Mu Jingzhe’s gaze. “Sister, quick, go dry your face. What is this?”

Previously, when Mu Jingzhe had divorced, Li Zhaodi had been worried, and so had Mu Han. But now, while seeing Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buwang like this, he felt his teeth ache.

Back then, when Mu Jingzhe had first married Shao Qihai, he had still been young. Besides, she had married into another family just like that, so he hadn’t felt too strongly about it. Now that he was older, when he looked at Ji Buwang, he inexplicably felt that he was an eyesore.

Ji Buwang wanted to take Mu Jingzhe away. When he was busy at work, Mu Jingzhe could be by his side. However, Mu Han heartlessly refused.

“No, my sister has something to do today. She has to come with me.”

Mu Han successfully did not let Ji Buwang take Mu Jingzhe away, but their reluctant expressions made Mu Han feel like an evil person who had broken up a loving couple.

However, he could only separate them for half a day. At night, Ji Buwang even brought some fruit over just to take a look at Mu Jingzhe.

The next day, under Mu Han’s speechless gaze, Ji Buwang came again and excitedly took Mu Jingzhe to pluck pomegranates.

Coincidentally, it was the right season to pluck pomegranates. While they plucked pomegranates, they were pleasantly surprised.

“This pomegranate is awesome. It’s like a ruby.” It was really pretty. Although it wasn’t very big, it was very red and aesthetically pleasing.

“That’s right, you got lucky.” This time, the place where they went to pick pomegranates wasn’t his friend’s house. Seeing that the couple looked pleasing to the eye, the owner of the pomegranate garden said some auspicious words to bless them. “Pomegranates signify many children and blessings. You’ll be blessed with a lot of children in the future.”

Ji Buwang couldn’t help but laugh when he heard that, but Mu Jingzhe said, “There’s no need to wait for the future. I’ve already been blessed with many children.”

“Ah.” The boss looked at her. “You look rather young.”

“Really? How old do you think I am?”

“In your early twenties?”

Delighted, Mu Jingzhe started spouting nonsense. “I’m actually in my thirties. I have five children, including both sons and daughters.”

With a stunned expression, the boss looked at her face in disbelief and exclaimed, “I really couldn’t tell! Then he…”

“Oh, he’s still young. He’s just in his early twenties. He’s the stepfather I found for my children.”
