Chapter 124: He Was Still So Happy After Being Slapped
Their father was indeed a b*stard. When he was in love with Wu Tong, he would swear an oath of eternal love. When he tired of her, he would leave the money and disappear without a trace.
"I know that you’re a good child." Wu Tong smiled in relief and took a step forward to hug him. "I was really scared when I couldn’t find you. I thought you didn’t want me as your mother anymore."
This was the first time Ji Mo had ever been hugged by his mother. This strange feeling made Ji Mo’s entire body stiffen, and it was like his blood was frozen. He stood rooted to the ground in a daze and held his breath. He was afraid that everything in front of him was a beautiful dream that would disappear with just a gentle breath.
"I, I didn’t..." Ji Mo muttered to himself. "I was just afraid that you would be angry, so I didn’t dare to tell you."
"As long as you’re not abandon me, I’ll be very happy." Wu Tong lay on Ji Mo’s shoulder and cried. Her voice was choked with sobs. "I know that I didn’t treat you well in the past. I have already repented. Ji Mo, I will learn to be a good mom. Can you give me a chance?"
Ji Mo closed his eyes and was silent for a long while before he slowly stretched out his hand and hugged Wu Tong tightly. It was as if he was hugging an illusory dream. His eyes were slightly red as he said hoarsely, "Okay."
The mother and son hugged each other and cried bitterly. It was only at night that Wu Tong finally left reluctantly.
After sending Wu Tong away, Ji Mo’s eyes flashed with a light that he had never seen before. He grinned and returned to the living room.
"Ji Mo." Ji Ning looked worriedly at the clear palm print on his face. He asked carefully, "Are you alright? Does it hurt?" After he said that, he pointed at Ji Mo’s cheek.
Wu Tong’s slap was obviously full of strength. His cheek was slightly bruised. There were also a few bloody scratches from the fingernails. Hearing Ji Ning’s words, Ji Mo subconsciously touched his cheek and his gaze darkened for a moment. However, he quickly smiled again with pure joy. "It’s alright, I didn’t hurt."
"Idiot." Ji Qian frowned and muttered, "You’re still so happy after getting slapped. I really don’t know what kind of bewitching potion that woman gave you."
