Chapter 129 You Owe Me!

“Mom.” Ji Mo reached out to stop her. His black pupils stared at her. “You’re here for that orchid, right?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Wu Tong’s eyes flashed with panic, it turned into anger. “I saw your favorite strawberry cake on the way here, so I bought it and wanted to give it to you. What about you? Are you going to malign your mother? You’re really my good son!”

“Mom!”

Facing Wu Tong, Ji Mo raised his voice for the first time. “Strawberry cake was the birthday cake I wanted when I was five years old, but I’m already seventeen years old now. I don’t like to eat it anymore.”

When Ji Mo was young, he celebrated the birthday of his classmate in school. His classmate’s parents bought a two-layer strawberry cake and distributed it to every child in the class. Hence, he also wanted a piece of strawberry cake on his birthday. But instead of being satisfied, he was locked up in a dark room and locked up for an entire day.

His birthday had been spent in grief and regret. This woman, his so-called mother, had gone out to play cards and shop after locking the door.

“How, how would I know!” Wu Tong’s eyes drifted, and she raised her head proudly. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you didn’t like it? Did I force you to eat it?”

“Mom, it’s been so long. Are you done pretending?” Ji Mo’s eyes were filled with pain, his voice was choked with sobs. “Do you know that your acting skills are really bad? So bad that I need to lie to myself and tell myself that you really want to change. But I can’t lie to myself for a lifetime.”

Wu Tong startled when she heard Ji Mo’s words.

“Why did you do that? What good will destroying that orchid do you?” Ji Mo gritted his teeth. He pressed on, “Have you ever thought about what would happen to me if you were to escape after destroying the orchid? What would happen to me if I stayed in the Ji family? What would big brother think of me? What would sister-in-law think of me? Have you ever thought about how I’m going to live in the Ji family in the future?”

Wu Tong had used him to distract the bodyguards, causing a heaven-defying disaster and escaping. What about him? What about him?

Ji Mo could no longer deceive himself. He closed his eyes in pain. He knew that it wasn’t that Wu Tong didn’t know the consequences. She just didn’t care. This woman had a cold heart. She never cared about him at all.

This self-deceiving scam should be over.

“What, what are you thinking about?” Wu Tong seemed to have turned angry from embarrassment. She shouted with a sharp voice, “Ji Mo, why are you pretending? You already knew that I was just acting. You know that I have no interest in those flowers and plants. Do you dare to say that you have absolutely no idea why I come to the greenhouse?”

“You are willing to be my dog, betraying your brother and sister-in-law to please me. Why are you pretending to be innocent now?” Wu Tong curled her lips viciously, every sentence pierced into Ji Mo’s heart. “And now you regret it? How could I have given birth to such a useless son when he couldn’t accomplish anything and ruined everything! If you still want to acknowledge me as your mother, then step aside now. I was pregnant for ten months and gave birth to you. No matter what I asked you to do, you should do it because you owe me!”

“If it’s possible, I’d rather you didn’t give birth to me.” Ji Mo’s eyes were red, big drops of tears were in his eyes, but they did not fall. “What am I to you? If you didn’t love me, why did you give birth to me?”

“If your father wasn’t rich, do you think I would be willing to suffer?” Wu Tong said irresponsibly, she cursed angrily, “If Ji Yan wants to settle the score with me today, you are also an accomplice. You can’t hide from him. Since you have already betrayed them, don’t pretend to be a good person here. Let me go quickly!”

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came from the door.

Ji Yan sat back in his wheelchair. Together with Shen Hanxing, he appeared at the door of the greenhouse with a few old men. Seeing them, a guilty look flashed across Ji Mo’s face. He subconsciously wanted to explain, “Sister-in-law, it’s not… It’s not like that. I…” Faced with the mess on the ground, Ji Mo’s face was filled with regret. He lowered his head helplessly. His voice was choked with sobs. “I was wrong. I really regret it.”

Even though he knew that Wu Tong’s love was fake, he still lied to himself and immersed himself in it. Even though he knew that Wu Tong was up to no good, he still chose to be Wu Tong’s accomplice so that he could still receive fake love from Wu Tong.

That orchid had always been in Old Master Zhuang’s heart. That orchid had already been destroyed once because of the Ji family. If something were to happen to it again, no matter how easy going Old Master Zhuang was, he would never let it go. Ji Mo clearly knew what was at stake, but he still surrendered in Wu Tong’s gentle embrace and begging.
