Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote! Chapter 21: Jealousy

The man nad Huo Junmo lazily leaned against the sofa, long legs crossed, arms folded, resting his chin on one hand as he gazed at the coffee table ahead, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing his absent-minded deanor, Gu Xingchen continued, "Junmo, look quickly, see who I’ve brought for you? Take a closer look?"

Huo Junmo remained in the sa posture, ignoring his words completely.

"Junmo!" Gu Xingchen spoke again, his tone carrying a hint of excitent that left Ye Anxin puzzled.

Annoyed by the call, Huo Junmo finally lifted his head! The mont his deep eyes saw Ye Anxin’s small face, a storm surged through his calm eyes, and the body that had been seated on the sofa suddenly stood up, the tall figure exuding a strong sense of oppression that swept towards Ye Anxin.

Almost simultaneously, as Huo Junmo’s gaze fixed on her, Ye Anxin also felt another gaze fall upon her.

This gaze, unlike Huo Junmo’s fiery one, was like a cold wind, chilling her to the bone.

Although she didn’t look, Ye Anxin was almost certain that the gaze so cold could belong to none other than Mu Beiting; she couldn’t think of anyone else.

At this mont, Huo Junmo’s entire focus was on Ye Anxin, and for the first ti, the usually keen Mu Beiting didn’t notice the subtle hint of anger in Mu Beiting’s gaze. He took large strides towards Ye Anxin and snatched her from Gu Xingchen’s hand, gripping her wrist and excitedly asking, "Who are you?"

At the sa ti Huo Junmo grabbed Ye Anxin, Mu Beiting’s hand tightening around the wine glass was noticeably apparent, and his cold eyes rarely showed an unusual emotion.

Sitting beside him, Yan Qinghan observed all his subtle changes with playful interest gleaming in his eyes.

"I...!" Huo Junmo’s sudden move startled Ye Anxin a bit! As she stumbled over her words to tell him her na, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open. Seeing Ye Anxin being held by Huo Junmo, the person who entered, Ling Yueyue, thought she was being bullied and took a big step forward, snatching Ye Anxin from Huo Junmo’s grip and shielding her like a hen protecting her chick, angrily saying, "What are you doing? Don’t think Anxin is easy to bully because she’s kind. I’m telling you, if you dare bully her, I’ll make sure to fight you to the end."

Ye Anxin grabbed Ling Yueyue’s arm from behind and whispered, "Yueyue, it’s a misunderstanding! They just mistook for soone else! Let’s go!"

Ling Yueyue uncertainly asked, "They really didn’t do anything to you?"

"No, no, let’s just go!" Ye Anxin shook her head vigorously, denying it, then pulled Ling Yueyue out the door.

"Wait...!" Huo Junmo was unwilling, wanting to speak, but Ye Anxin already dashed out with Ling Yueyue.

Standing in the doorway, Huo Junmo watched the closed door, his eyes filled with reluctance and yearning, his heart unable to calm for a long ti.

"Beiting, you see! It’s not just who thinks so, everyone sees it! You...!" Yan Qinghan teasingly looked at Mu Beiting, wanting to continue speaking but swallowed the unfinished words when t with Mu Beiting’s warning glance.

Mu Beiting couldn’t be bothered with Yan Qinghan, pulled out his phone, swiped a couple of tis quickly, then put it back in his pocket.

In the hallway outside, Ling Yueyue pulled Ye Anxin along, running wildly until they turned two corners and finally stopped.
