Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 329 - 318: What Will the Rest of Their Lives Be Like
Jin Jumo’s pupils trembled violently as she looked out the window, only able to see a tide of darkness.
Gu Lingyi walked up to Jin Jumo, staring directly at her with eyes as cold as a ghost’s, "What, afraid of dying?"
Who isn’t afraid of death?
Jin Jumo’s fingertips tightened, her face paler than paper, "Fine."
"..." Hearing her answer, the curve at Gu Lingyi’s mouth suddenly sank with a cold smile, "Agreeing so readily, how noble!"
"As long as I jump from here, you’ll let Xixi and Hanhan go, right? I need to be sure!" Jin Jumo said.
"Of course." Gu Lingyi raised the corner of her mouth again, "My target is only you. They are just kids, no matter how crazy I am, I wouldn’t hurt two innocent kids who know nothing."
Jin Jumo stared at her, "I hope you keep your promise, otherwise, even as a ghost, I will haunt you forever!"
Gu Lingyi frowned, "There’s no need for me to lie to someone who’s about to die. But..."
Jin Jumo tightened her lips, "What else do you want?"
"Don’t be nervous." Gu Lingyi suddenly looked towards the corner near the window, saying softly, "Before you jump, I suppose I should let you see your children one more time."
Jin Jumo was startled, eyeing Gu Lingyi cautiously.
Gu Lingyi stood still, her side-eye on Jin Jumo, "What do you think their lives will be like if they watch their mother jump into the sea? Ha, I’m suddenly very curious!"
"You’re insane!" Jin Jumo’s eyes widened, the red veins in them seeming to extend beyond the sockets, her entire body quivering with agitation.
She never imagined she brought Xixi and Hanhan here for this purpose!
"Gu Lingyi, I can jump, I said I can jump! You can’t, you can’t be so cruel to two children!" Just thinking about it made Jin Jumo feel such pain she couldn’t breathe, her eyes clouded with tears, her heart aching as if it were being cut with a knife, making it hard to stand.
"They’re your children, not mine." Faced with Jin Jumo’s despairing scream, Gu Lingyi smiled and spoke lightly.
"Gu Lingyi... ah..."
As Jin Jumo spoke, Gu Lingyi suddenly bent down and pulled away the dark gray burlap covering the corner, revealing two young faces instantly to Jin Jumo.
Jin Jumo covered her mouth, pupils widening, staring at the two tiny figures slumping against the ship wall.
In that moment, Jin Jumo’s heartbeat stopped, tears bursting forth like a flood, she rushed over frantically.
Gu Lingyi laughed harshly, bending over and quickly picking up Xixi before Jin Jumo could get close, gripping Xixi’s soft neck with one hand, "Don’t come over!"
"..."
Jin Jumo stopped short, her face ashen, staring at the hand on Xixi’s neck, her tear-streaked face twitching violently, her throat feeling like it was caught on a blade, each word she spoke slicing that blade deeper into her throat, "I’m not coming, I’m not coming, just let her go, let her go, ah..."
Jin Jumo pressed her heart, filled with fear and intense pain, the only feelings she had now!
"Let her go!"
Gu Lingyi gazed at Jin Jumo’s painfully twisted face, smiling to the point of tears, "As long as you jump, not only will I let her go, I’ll let them both go."
"I’ll jump! Let them go." Jin Jumo said without hesitation.
Don’t just ask her to jump into the sea now, even if it were to roll into boiling oil, she’d go!
Gu Lingyi stared at her chillingly, slowly releasing the hand on Xixi’s neck, raising her voice slightly, "Bring the antidote for the sedative."
As soon as Gu Lingyi finished speaking, the fabric separating the ship’s wheel was pushed aside from outside, a person walked in, handed a small porcelain bottle to Gu Lingyi, glanced at Jin Jumo, and left.
Jin Jumo watched as Gu Lingyi opened the bottle, bringing the neck of it to Xixi’s nose.
Fear spread rapidly through every pore, Jin Jumo stared at her, guessing she intended to wake Xixi and Hanhan, to make her jump off the ship in front of them.
Jin Jumo had lived till now, witnessing both the good and evil in human nature, experiencing them more than once.
But never like now, so desperate, so much hatred towards one person!
If she had the power to strike back now, if she had a knife in her hand, she truly would kill her!
She didn’t understand!
How could someone be so ruthless, so twisted at the age of just nineteen!
Age isn’t the standard for determining how ruthless someone can be!
Even at ninety, she couldn’t do something like this!
Watching Xixi slowly waking in her arms, Jin Jumo’s tears fell uncontrollably.
Xixi and Hanhan hadn’t known fatherly love before they were four, she didn’t feel sorry because she’d given them all the love she could, everything she could!
But now, she felt she’d let them down!
If she jumped from here today in front of them...
Jin Jumo clutched her chest tightly, the pain here was unbearable!
"Mommy?" Xixi looked at Jin Jumo’s face, unfamiliar due to her extreme pain, her dark eyes not fully awake, a little confused.
"...Hmm, Mommy is here." Jin Jumo suppressed the pain and choking in her throat, looked at Xixi, and tried hard to force a smile.
Suddenly, Xixi shivered intensely, her small pale face full of fear, and she burst into tears.
Jin Jumo, "..." almost started crying along with Xixi.
"Mommy, Mommy, I want Mommy to hold me, I want Mommy, wah..."
Xixi desperately reached out both arms towards Jin Jumo, her whole body trembling with sobs.
"Xixi..." Jin Jumo’s heart ached tremendously, and she instinctively wanted to walk towards Xixi.
"Someone!" Gu Lingyi suddenly spoke up at this moment.
Jin Jumo’s face changed drastically, and she stopped in her tracks.
Meanwhile, two men wearing masks came in successively from behind.
Jin Jumo held her breath, her eyes trembling with panic, staring at Gu Lingyi.
Gu Lingyi coldly glanced at Hanhan, who was still unconscious on the deck, and said coldly, "Wake him up for me!"
"..."
The man who had captured Jin Jumo stepped forward, took the antidote bottle from Gu Lingyi’s hand, and walked towards Hanhan.
Watching the man rudely pulling Hanhan’s tender little arm to lift him from the deck, Jin Jumo felt her heart being whipped!
"Wah... Mommy." Xixi cried in fear, her small body shaking violently.
"Shut up!" Gu Lingyi irritably pushed Xixi’s head.
"Wah..." Xixi screamed, pulling her small shoulders fearfully and staring at Gu Lingyi.
"Gu Lingyi!" Jin Jumo glared at Gu Lingyi angrily, wishing she could rush forward and tear her apart at this moment!
Gu Lingyi sneered, coldly looking at Jin Jumo, "So noisy!"
The reason she knocked them out was because, after boarding the ship, the two little ones cried and caused a fuss, driving her crazy!
"Sob..." Xixi dared not cry loudly and bit her little lip, tears streaming down as she looked at Jin Jumo fearfully for help.
Jin Jumo had a thousand apologies and heartache she wanted to express.
But Gu Lingyi’s attitude towards Xixi and Hanhan made her deeply uneasy and terrified inside.
Maybe, from the beginning, she never intended to let Xixi and Hanhan go.
The reason she demanded so much from her was just to torment her, torment the two children!
Otherwise, how could she dare to appear in front of Xixi and Hanhan? Letting them return would mean Rong Mochen would also know what she had done!
So she would by no means do such a self-destructive thing!
The fact that she brought them all here meant she wouldn’t let any of them go!
This thought made Jin Jumo feel cold at the soles of her feet, and even more afraid and panic-stricken.
"Mom..." At this time, Hanhan’s terrified voice came.
Jin Jumo’s heart tightened, and she looked over.
She saw Hanhan struggling fiercely in the man’s arms, his small face flushed, his dark eyes also reddened, with lips pressed tightly together, desperately trying to make his way towards Jin Jumo.
Jin Jumo felt as if her heart were being twisted, "Hanhan, my baby..."
"Let me go, big bad guy, let me go!"
"Hanhan!" Jin Jumo’s heart almost leaped out of her chest from tension, afraid Hanhan’s actions would anger that man!
"Let go of me, let go, ah..."
"Hanhan!"
The man squeezed Hanhan’s wrist with one hand, and just with one motion, Jin Jumo saw Hanhan’s face turn white with pain.
Jin Jumo opened her lips, unable to breathe due to anger and fear, her pupils suddenly covered with a layer of crimson, staining her eyes red as she fiercely stared at Gu Lingyi, "Gu Lingyi, you don’t plan to stay on this wrecked ship forever, do you? Why waste time then.
Make your men leave, and let me say a few words to Xixi and Hanhan. After that, I’ll do as you asked!"
Gu Lingyi squinted, "You can talk with them here, too."
"This is my last request; after this... there will be no more chances!" Jin Jumo looked at Hanhan and Xixi, warm liquid swirling in her eye sockets.
"..." Gu Lingyi thought for a moment, "How do I know you don’t plan something?"
Jin Jumo looked at her, her mouth curving into a bitter, self-deprecating smile, "With so many of you here, what could a woman who can’t even truss a chicken and two children possibly do?
And anyway, this is the middle of the sea. I can’t very well jump off the boat with Xixi and Hanhan, can I? If you’re still not reassured, you can stay and watch us yourself."
