Chapter 439: They Try To Leave (1/2)

Jiang Xun carried Mu Mu as he faced Gu Qingyao with a forced smile. “This… Elder Sister Gu, Mu Mu has recovered. I… I should bring them back! We have been here for many days and we’ve imposed on you.”

“Thank you for treating Mu Mu. I… I’ll bring him home now!”

Jiang Xun was carrying Mu Mu in his arms and the latter leaned his head on Jiang Xun’s shoulders. When he heard that, his eyes reddened.

He looked at Gu Qingyao for a long time. “Elder Sister Gu, goodbye! I… I’m going home. I’ll come visit you again. Will you please teach me to write then?”

Mu Mu could not bear to leave Gu Qingyao. In his short life, Gu Qingyao was the first woman to have treated him so well.

Young children instinctively longed for their mothers, and he had been motherless since he was young.

He had met Gu Yunshuang once, but she had not taken care of him. She had only given the brothers some food and old clothes.

Even then, she had handed everything to his older brother, Jiang Xun. He had only seen Gu Yunshuang once. He was grateful to her and knew that she was their benefactor, but he was not attached to her.

But Gu Qingyao was different. She had taken care of him, carried him around, and they had shared a bed. At night, he had slept in the warmth of Gu Qingyao’s embrace. He thought that they could stay for a while more but had not expected that circumstances would not permit him to do so.

The Mo family might not want him. Even if he joined the Mo family, Elder Sister Gu would have to suffer, or they would not be able to raise so many children.

He did not want Elder Sister Gu to suffer, or for her to dislike him.

So he had no choice but to go home with his older brothers.

Jiang Jing stood next to Jiang Xun. He looked at Gu Qingyao for a long time. At that moment, he was desperately envious of Mo Chengrui and Mo Chengxu.

So what if they had no parents?
