Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Little Bei wanted to call Mu Jingzhe ‘Mommy’, like all the other children.

After Little Bei asked that, she carefully looked at Mu Jingzhe, afraid that Mu Jingzhe would refuse or that she would be unhappy. She was very nervous.

Her father no longer wanted them. Would Auntie disdain them too?

Mu Jingzhe hadn’t expected to hear this question.

Call her Mommy? It wasn’t any other form of address. It was ‘Mommy’.

Mu Jingzhe hesitated. This went against her original plan.

She’d only planned to take care of them for the time being. She felt that she hadn’t done enough, that she was far from being a mother.

However, she hesitated when Little Bei said that she wanted to call her ‘Mommy’.

After all, it wasn’t a casual form of address. The meaning behind it was significant. It represented unlimited responsibility.

If she agreed, it might add to her responsibilities in the future. She wasn’t sure if she was up to the task or not.

Mu Jingzhe’s hesitation made Little Bei’s face turn pale.

“Auntie, I was joking. I didn’t mean to cling onto you. My brothers said that we’re a burden and can’t keep holding you back. I was just kidding.”

She really liked Auntie, but she couldn’t force her to let her call her ‘Mommy’. Even their father didn’t want them, so on what grounds should they ask Auntie to keep on taking care of them?

She had already done enough for them.

Little Bei smiled and wanted to dismiss her words as a joke, but she was still young. She couldn’t hide the sadness on her face, nor could she keep her eyes from reddening.

“Auntie, let’s go out. I’ll apologize and explain this to them.”

Mu Jingzhe felt very upset as she looked at Little Bei, who was forcing a smile and holding back tears.

“No, Little Bei, I’m just afraid that I can’t play the role of a mother well and will only disappoint you. That’s because I’ve never done it before. It’s not because I find you burdensome.”

Mu Jingzhe said seriously, “You’ve never been a burden, so as long as you want to and aren’t afraid of disappointment, you can call me ‘Mommy’.”

Mu Jingzhe took a deep breath. “I’ll try my best to be a good mother.”

In her previous life, she had also been very envious of other people who had mothers. This time, she had transmigrated into a book, and the heavens had compensated her with a set of parents in the form of Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng, who treated her very well.

Since the heavens had compensated her, she should perhaps also help Little Bei.

Little Bei’s face was full of disbelief. “Really? Can I really do that?”

“Yes.” Mu Jingzhe nodded.

When she heard this, Little Bei’s eyes lit up. She pounced on Mu Jingzhe. “Mommy!” Her voice was extremely loud.

Mu Jingzhe quickly hugged Little Bei. “You’re really happy, huh.”

She had mixed feelings and couldn’t help but laugh when she heard Little Bei shout.

“Yes, Mommy!”

Little Bei was elated and called her ‘Mommy’ a few times before sneakily planting a kiss on Mu Jingzhe’s face.

Her soft little mouth melted Mu Jingzhe’s heart, and her mind went dizzy from the kiss. At that moment, she wished she could give the entire world to Little Bei.

Mu Jingzhe looked at Little Bei’s adorable little face and couldn’t help but say the standard line of a domineering CEO. “Little vixen.”

Wasn’t Little Bei a little vixen now? She was making her dizzy with her charm and all that.

She had only come to be a nanny, but now, she had lost her heart to them and found herself becoming a mother.

“Then Mommy is a big vixen.” Little Bei’s ears were sharp.

Mu Jingzhe: “Uh…”

Mu Jingzhe carried Little Bei, who was sticking to her side, back. The minute they got back, they were notified that Little Bei had been chosen by the advertisers.

Little Bei wanted to apologize to the children, but they had already left.

The advertisers had thought of the advertisement plan and all that. They had also decided on the adult actors long ago. Little Bei was cast in the morning, and filming would begin in the afternoon.

The process was very efficient.

Little Bei didn’t have experience facing cameras, but after some teaching, she quickly grasped it.

It was as if she had been born to face a camera, and she wasn’t afraid or awkward at all.

Some people were usually alright, but they would feel uncomfortable when facing a camera. This wasn’t the case for Little Bei.

They filmed several takes, but everything went smoothly. The shoot ended in one afternoon.

Because of this, Little Bei even received products from the advertisers. They said that they could be used by both adults and children, so Little Bei could use them too.

Little Bei specifically asked for seven boxes, one for her and each of her siblings, one for Mommy, and one for Young Uncle.

“Mommy, this is for you.”

“Thank you, Little Bei.”

The advertiser promptly gave Little Bei’s remuneration to Mu Jingzhe after the shoot.

Mu Jingzhe took the excited Little Bei back to look for her brothers.

Outsiders were not allowed to enter during the filming process. They were still waiting in the guesthouse, and a teacher was taking care of them. From afar, they could hear Little Bei calling out ‘Mommy’.

Mu Jingzhe even responded to it.

Shao Dong, Shao Xi, and Shao Nan glanced at each other speechlessly.

“…”

Their gazes were complicated, while Xiao Wu’s eyes were filled with envy.

When Little Bei came in, she chatted with them about that day’s experience and accidentally called Mu Jingzhe ‘Mommy’.

After calling her that, Little Bei looked at her brothers sheepishly. However, none of her brothers said anything about it.

Little Bei heaved a sigh of relief.

Likewise, Mu Jingzhe touched her nose guiltily when she saw the boys’ gazes.

She kept having the feeling that she had abducted Little Bei and coaxed her into calling her Mommy.

However, she really hadn’t done that.

While Little Bei was in the washroom, Mu Jingzhe quickly explained this to Shao Dong.

“Err, Shao Dong… I didn’t do it on purpose. Something happened this morning, so Little Bei changed her form of address and started calling me ‘Mommy’.”

Shao Dong had a complicated look in his eyes. “I know.”

Little Bei may look like she was smiling without a care in the world, but he knew his younger sister. Her intuition had always been accurate, and ordinary people couldn’t fool her.

Little Bei called her ‘Mommy’ because Mu Jingzhe treated her well and because she wanted to.

Mu Jingzhe did a good job, so it was normal for her to change the way she addressed her.

When Mu Jingzhe saw that Shao Dong wasn’t angry, Shao Xi only snorted, and Shao Nan merely curled his lips and didn’t say anything, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She patted her chest and left in peace. She didn’t see Shao Dong hesitating to speak.

Since Little Bei had already changed her form of address, shouldn’t they do the same since they were siblings?

He wanted to ask this, but he was afraid that Mu Jingzhe wouldn’t agree.

Mu Jingzhe had always liked Little Bei more and had never asked them to call her ‘Mommy’.

Maybe she wouldn’t be willing?

Shao Xi snorted, sharing the same thoughts as Shao Dong. Since Little Bei had changed her form of address, why hadn’t she just told them to follow suit?

They were siblings, but now Little Bei was calling her ‘Mommy’, while they were still calling her ‘Auntie’. It was too strange.

Shao Nan… Shao Nan couldn’t stand Little Bei’s joyful and smug look, nor could he stand Mu Jingzhe’s guilty and happy expression.

Wasn’t she just calling her Mommy? How hard was it to call her that?! He could call her that too.

That was what he thought, but Shao Nan didn’t say anything ultimately. In the end, the three brothers didn’t change how they addressed her.

By the time they returned to the county city, it was already dark. Mu Jingzhe was a little hesitant to decide whether she should rush back overnight or stay the night. She decided to rush back to class tomorrow morning.

Shao Qiyang had left the bicycle with them at the art school, afraid that it would be too hard on the children.

“Let’s go back. We can rest better at home,” Shao Dong said.

Actually, he was afraid of spending more money on accommodation at the guesthouse. Mu Jingzhe had already spent a lot of money over the past few days.

“Right, we can wake up later tomorrow.” Shao Xi agreed.

“Then let’s rush back at night.”

It was summer now, so it wasn’t too cold at night.

Shao Dong and Shao Xi took turns helping with the torchlight, while Mu Jingzhe transported them home on the bicycle.

They chatted happily along the way. Unexpectedly, they ran into Shao Qiyang on the way.

Shao Qiyang had come to pick them up.
