147 Retribution

Previously, Mu Jingzhe had been focused on earning money and raising the five children. Even though Ji Buwang had confessed his feelings, she hadn't had the time or energy for this.

However, these days, Ji Buwang had indeed shown her his sincerity.

After dinner, it was already dark, so Ji Buwang drove them back.

It was Ji Buwang's first time in Great Eastern Village, but he was sensible enough to only take them to the village entrance and didn't even get out of the car. He was considerate enough not to make things difficult for Mu Jingzhe.

Logically speaking, Mu Jingzhe should have invited Ji Buwang to her house for some tea. However, her identity as a widow would invite gossip if he was seen at her house, and Mu Jingzhe was in the limelight now. If the villagers really saw Ji Buwang, who knew what would happen.

Mu Jingzhe was in a difficult position. Knowing that, Ji Buwang simply waved at them and left after they got out of the car.
