Chapter 424: In Love
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After Xiao Wu recovered, even his reputation improved. Mu Jingzhe was very relieved.
There was another piece of good news during summer vacation, and that was Shao Xi’s new work, which was all about treating illness with love. In the end, he had decided to turn it into a movie and had already started working on the project.
Initially, Shao Xi felt that some of the things he had imagined, such as those machines, might not be easy to produce. However, Director Jiang, who he had worked with before, liked this idea very much and was very sincere about it. He kept pestering Shao Xi to film it, even offering to forgo the director fees to do it.
In addition, Shao Xi had previously bought a film company. Coincidentally, he was very interested and he even wanted to be a screenwriter. Since he had worked with Director Jiang before, he decided to try producing the film himself. In the end, he decided to cooperate with him and give it a try. They would show their greatest sincerity together.
Shao Xi completed the adaptation of the script in late summer, and Director Jiang also started getting busy. Little Bei was delighted to hear that and said that she had to audition for the role of the young lady. Shao Xi didn’t stop her.
Mu Jingzhe also wanted to collaborate with them, so in the end, the entire family got busy working on this.
It wasn’t clear if this was good or not, but somehow, things still ended up this way. There was also a benefit to this—communication was easier. Furthermore, they could be a little more direct and wouldn’t be careless about it.
After a busy summer vacation, the children returned to school.
Now that the kids had returned to school, although Mu Jingzhe was usually busy working, she felt a little relieved. Ji Buwang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Although he was also busy and concerned about Xiao Wu and the other children, with the children around, coupled with Xiao Wu’s previous issue, it had been a long time since he had been alone with Mu Jingzhe.
Because of the previous situation, his relationship with Jingzhe should have advanced and taken a step forward. However, because of Xiao Wu, he hadn’t been in the mood to pay attention to this.
Now that the children had left, there was finally a chance for the two of them to be alone.
Ji Buwang, who had been holding back for a long time, decided to spend some quality time with Mu Jingzhe. First, they had to watch a movie. Since she didn’t dare watch horror movies, they could watch another movie. However, Mu Jingzhe knew that Ji Buwang couldn’t see anyone’s face and wouldn’t enjoy it much. Thus, when they arrived at the movie theater, she chose a cartoon.
Pretty much everyone watching the cartoon was an adult with children, so Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buwang were the only exceptions. However, Ji Buwang didn’t care. Had he gone there to watch a movie? No, he was doing it to be with Jingzhe.
Mu Jingzhe shared the same sentiment. Compared to the exquisitely-made cartoons of the future, animation at the time was very inferior in terms of technique and other aspects.
However, the movie actually turned out not to be too bad, especially when Ji Buwang intentionally or unintentionally leaned his arm over.
Ji Buwang usually talked big and sounded formidable, as he kept asking Mu Jingzhe to make an honest man out of him and whatnot. However, when one interacted with him, they would realize that he had a courage that people in this era didn’t have, but he also had the carefulness of the men in this era.
For example, he had looked at Mu Jingzhe’s hand a few times, but he didn’t dare hold it. He only dared to get a little closer, as if it was already very good that their arms were next to each other.
Mu Jingzhe had undergone a modern baptism. Modern fast-food-style love made intimacy very easy. Even without love, one could be intimate in all sorts of ways. At the time, she hadn’t been used to it, so she could be considered conservative.
She hadn’t expected a conservative like her to become an open-minded, bold person in this era.
Having their arms next to each other was nothing really. However, even so, she felt her heart palpitate for some reason.

Even the content of the cartoon seemed to become cute and funny.
However, Mu Jingzhe didn’t really remember what she had watched by the time it ended. As they walked out of the movie theater, someone leaving in a hurry bumped into Mu Jingzhe. Mu Jingzhe lost her footing, and Ji Buwang quickly grabbed her.
“Be careful.” Upon saying that, he subconsciously grabbed Mu Jingzhe’s hand. After taking a few steps, he suddenly realized what he had done and felt his palm start to burn.
At this short distance, Mu Jingzhe could feel Ji Buwang’s palms start to sweat, but he couldn’t bear to let go and didn’t dare move.
Mu Jingzhe looked at their hands and smiled. When they came out, Ji Buwang reluctantly let go of her hand. Mu Jingzhe couldn’t help but scratch his palm playfully, instantly feeling Ji Buwang go stiff.
Ji Buwang felt his hands turn numb and almost jumped up. When he turned around and saw Mu Jingzhe’s calm expression, he knew that he might be too sensitive.
He was instantly a little vexed. He had thought it through very well, but after holding Jingzhe’s hand, he couldn’t help but feel nervous.
Seeing that someone was selling popsicles in the distance, Ji Buwang quickly offered to buy a popsicle for Mu Jingzhe and walked away.
He needed to calm down, and eating a popsicle would help.
Mu Jingzhe covered her mouth and chuckled as she watched him leave. “So cute.”
She hadn’t been like this in the past. She didn’t know why but she wanted to tease Ji Buwang whenever she met him. Bah… This wasn’t teasing. It was just playing around.
Yes, she wasn’t a pervert. She was just messing around.
Ji Buwang bought them popsicles, and the two of them were about to leave when they accidentally bumped into Shao Qiyang and Mu Xue. Upon seeing the two of them together, Shao Qiyang was stunned momentarily before returning to normal. He asked a thing or two about the kids.
When he learned that Xiao Wu was fine, Shao Qiyang heaved a sigh of relief. After Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buwang left, he looked at their backs and felt conflicted. What was his Second Brother going to do?
“Let’s go.” Mu Xue pulled Shao Qiyang over. Shao Qiyang came back to his senses and quickly held Mu Xue. Being pregnant, Mu Xue was a tad sensitive. Seeing that he looked dejected, she was a little upset. “You still can’t forget her?”
“No, I’m thinking about my older brother.” Shao Qiyang perked up. “Don’t overthink.”
Shao Qiyang could clearly sense that Shao Qihai hadn’t given up on Mu Jingzhe, nor was he prepared to accept anyone else as her partner. However, now that Mu Jingzhe seemed to have chosen Ji Buwang, what should his older brother do?
“Aren’t they divorced? Don’t think too much about it,” Mu Xue said.
Shao Qiyang acknowledged this and didn’t say anything else.
After the movie, Ji Buwang took Mu Jingzhe to eat. While they were eating, Ji Buwang deliberately placed his arm on her chair, but in the end, he didn’t manage to hug Mu Jingzhe’s shoulder.
Mu Jingzhe could feel his arm and guessed his intentions. She knew what this meant very well, so she had been waiting nervously. In the end… she was nervous for nothing!
Ji Buwang didn’t even put his arm around her shoulder!
Mu Jingzhe waited during the entire meal, but in the end, it didn’t happen. After the meal, she was full of food and anger. She grumpily followed Ji Buwang, feeling indignant.
Therefore, when they walked out of the restaurant, as she was standing on a staircase step higher than Ji Buwang, she hugged his shoulder first.
If he didn’t hug her, she would hug him. If the mountain didn’t come over, she would go to the mountain! Wasn’t it just a shoulder hug after all? She had to hug him!
