Chapter 308 - Human Trafficker

Chapter 308: Human Trafficker

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

That day, when Mu Jingzhe brought Xiao Wu back, Ji Buwang didn’t come. He could tell that Xiao Wu was still conflicted and needed some time to accept it, so he didn’t come to disturb him.

However, he couldn’t help but go shopping that day and he bought a lot of things.

In the past, Ji Buwang had always wanted to be the five kids’ stepfather. He had even specifically learned about this before, but because he wasn’t yet, he had always kept his distance.

Now that he knew that Xiao Wu was his biological nephew and his older brother’s son, how could he tolerate it? He wanted to give Xiao Wu everything and couldn’t help but buy a lot of stuff. He even started to make plans to support Xiao Wu.

Previously, Xiao Wu had been his student, and he had been very concerned about him. However, because Xiao Wu had been Shao Qihai’s son, he had always kept a sensible distance. Now, he still had to be sensible, but he could always give him things openly and make plans.

It was one thing for Xiao Wu to treat them with such an attitude, but how they chose to treat Xiao Wu was much simpler. They could give him whatever he wanted and spend as much money on him as they wanted.

Ji Buwang bought a bunch of gifts for Xiao Wu, but not only for him. He also bought gifts for Shao Dong and the rest.

After buying them, he wished he could give them to Xiao Wu immediately, but Ji Buwang held himself back.

However, just because Ji Buwang held back, it didn’t mean that Old Master Ji did.

While he was on a shopping spree, Ji Buwang didn’t forget to inform Old Master Ji. Old Master Ji finally heard Ji Buwang’s answer over the phone. Xiao Wu was his older brother’s son.

Over the phone, Old Master Ji’s voice sounded very calm. He only instructed Ji Buwang to communicate with Xiao Wu properly and make sure that Xiao Wu knew that they hadn’t meant to disown him. They hadn’t known about his existence. He had to let Xiao Wu know about their feelings for him.

Ji Buwang had known all this even without Old Master Ji’s nagging.

Unexpectedly, the calm Old Master Ji on the phone actually had the urge to rush over overnight. The next morning, he silently appeared outside Mu Jingzhe’s rental house.

He knew that it wouldn’t be good for him to suddenly appear, but he couldn’t help it. He wanted to quietly take a look at Xiao Wu.

Unexpectedly, Old Master Ji didn’t have the ability to snoop around. It was too obvious that he was acting sneakily. Before he even got to meet Xiao Wu, he was caught by someone in the alley. Afraid that he was a thief or a bad person, the enthusiastic landlord grabbed him and started interrogating him.

Old Master Ji had too much pride to admit that he had secretly come to see Xiao Wu. He casually made up some excuse, but he didn’t expect the landlord to be a smart person. He could tell that something was wrong. Seeing how hard he had been staring whenever a child had appeared, the landlord thought that Old Master Ji was a human trafficker. He called for help and sent Old Master Ji to the police station.

Coincidentally, a year ago, two children had been lost in the vicinity. It was said that they had both been lured away with candied hawthorn.

After this incident, everyone had started paying attention. This was how Old Master Ji got mistaken for a human trafficker.

Old Master Ji had yet to see Xiao Wu when he was sent to the police station. There would be trouble if he didn’t answer questions honestly.

As Mu Jingzhe, Little Bei, and Xiao Wu set out to find the production team, they were stopped by all the neighbors in the alley. They reminded her to be careful and keep an eye on the children.

“Pay more attention to the children for the next two days. Don’t let them go out by themselves. We even caught a human trafficker this morning. You have a lot of children. You’ve got to watch over them.”

They had an Ocean City accent. Fortunately, Mu Jingzhe could still understand them, so she quickly thanked them.

“Did you hear that? There are human traffickers. It was even an elderly person. You have to be careful.”

Mu Jingzhe warned Xiao Wu and Little Bei, but she was still worried, so she went back to warn Shao Xi. “Human traffickers can pretend to be anyone. They might be a child or an old man. Don’t think that it’s safe if you see a child or an old man. Don’t go out alone today.”

“Okay.”

Mu Jingzhe also warned Shao Qihai. “The person they caught this morning was an old man. Pay special attention to old men.”

Little Bei and Xiao Wu held Mu Jingzhe’s hand tightly and were very cautious. They were even more vigilant around the elderly. “Mommy, if we see an old granny cross the road or fall in the future, can we still help her?”

The question caught Mu Jingzhe off guard. All she could say was, “It’s not like we can’t help them at all. Maybe if someone really needs help. But we have to be careful and observe. If something goes wrong, just run immediately.”

In that day and age, there shouldn’t be many people trying to scam others, but they couldn’t afford to be careless.

“Okay.”

Over there, Mu Jingzhe was vigilant against human traffickers. Meanwhile, not wanting to be arrested for some crime he hadn’t committed, the helpless Old Master Ji could only reveal his identity and get someone to contact Ji Buwang to prove his innocence.

When Ji Buwang rushed to the police station in disbelief and saw that his grandfather was really there and was even a suspected trafficker, his expression became completely uncontrollable.

What kind of strange development was this!

Ji Buwang explained carefully and finally led Old Master Ji out.

When they returned to the car, Ji Buwang didn’t drive. He just looked at Old Master Ji. Old Master Ji had turned his head to look out the window, but Ji Buwang didn’t move. His neck hurt from twisting it, so he couldn’t help but turn around and glare at him.

“What are you looking at? Hurry up and drive.”

“I just want to see how my grandpa looks like a human trafficker.” Ji Buwang couldn’t help but laugh.

Old Master Ji was furious. “I also want to know how I look like a human trafficker.” He was an illustrious person.

He’d just wanted to secretly take a look at his great-grandson. How had things turned out this way? Old Master Ji doubted his life for the first time.

“Alright, alright, don’t be angry anymore. Grandpa, no matter how one looks at it, you look mighty, domineering, and kind. The main reason you were accused is because an old man committed a kidnapping previously. However, this is a good thing. Since even you were treated as a human trafficker, it proves that the security there is very good. If suspicious people enter the area, they will definitely be watched. Xiao Wu is safer there.”

“That’s true.” Old Master Ji nodded. “But how am I suspicious?”

Ji Buwang thought to himself, ‘Who knows how sneaky the Old Master looked.’

However, he said, “They’re just being paranoid. It’s not your fault. But why didn’t you tell me that you were coming? You wouldn’t have been arrested if I’d taken you there.”

“I just wanted to secretly take a look. I didn’t want to scare the child.” Old Master Ji also tried to undermine Ji Buwang. “You’re still talking about me. When are you going to marry Jingzhe? You have to work harder. You’re too lousy. You’re far inferior to me back in the day and also inferior to your father. We struck after determining our target. Why are you dawdling?”

If Buwang had worked hard and married Jingzhe as soon as possible, Xiao Wu would have already been calling him ‘Great-Grandpa’ and he would have met Xiao Wu earlier.

Ji Buwang: “I’m not dawdling. This is how relationships work.”

“You’re still unwilling to admit it.” Old Master Ji couldn’t be bothered to nag him any further. “The child’s name is Xiao Wu, right? That’s very good. That’s a nice name.”

“His real name is Shao Zhong.”

“Shao Zhong is a good name too.” Old Master Ji was very easygoing. “Did you go see Xiao Wu last night? What’s his attitude like?”

“I didn’t go last night. I wanted to give him some time.”

“That’s true.. We have to give the child some time to accept it.”
