Mu Beiting raised an eyebrow and retorted, "So what?"
"So...!" Seeing Mu Beiting’s indifferent attitude, Ye Anxin was furious and gave a sowhat disheartened speech, "Uncle, why do you seem so unbothered, leaving the only one who’s all tense and worried?"
Mu Beiting dismissively asked, "Why bother?"
Ye Anxin blinked, surprised, and asked, "Don’t you want to know the reason for her return?"
Mu Beiting, while looking at a docunt, responded lightly, "Nope!"
Ye Anxin couldn’t help but ask again, "Why not?"
She just couldn’t fathom why she’s so into knowing this, while Uncle remained calm and unconcerned!
Is he really not curious about Mo Xuehong’s sudden return at all?
She felt that soone being secretive like Mo Xuehong was definitely up to no good, perhaps even posing a threat to them!
Mu Beiting lifted his gaze from the folder and looked at Ye Anxin, nonchalantly saying, "What’s destined can’t be avoided! What should happen will happen! If she’s up to no good, she’ll act, why worry! Handle it when it cos!"
After hearing Mu Beiting’s words, Ye Anxin drooped her shoulders in defeat and said helplessly, "Alright! I’ll never master Uncle’s cool composure! Maybe I’m just too anxious, afraid that she might harm Uncle or Xiao Bai!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Beiting’s eyes sharpened, and he said domineeringly, "If I don’t want it, no one can harm , Xiao Bai, or you!"
Listening to Mu Beiting’s confident words, Ye Anxin felt touched, "So, am I just worrying for nothing?"
Mu Beiting raised an eyebrow and didn’t say a word!
Seeing Mu Beiting’s expression, Ye Anxin sighed helplessly, "Alright then! You keep busy! I’ll read and not disturb you!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Beiting indeed lowered his head and continued working! Ye Anxin hesitated, then reached out to pat her chest, waiting for her disordered feelings to calm down before standing up. She took a book from the closet and snuggled onto the sofa to read!
.........
After Mo Xuehong’s sneaky phone calls, the house returned to calm, becoming as it used to be!
Ever since Mo Xuehong appeared, the Mu Family servants suddenly beca idle! Mo Xuehong took care of everything, leaving them clueless as to what to do by just standing by. This was quite unusual for them, who were used to being busy.
Knowing Qin Muyao’s plans, Mo Xuehong had been behaving very honestly these days! Silently focusing on her tasks! After a few days, Mo Xuehong gradually understood the entire flow of the Mu Family!
In the blink of an eye, Saturday arrived, Xiao Bai was on break, and Mu Beiting stayed ho to accompany them!
After a week of continuous snow, the sky finally cleared!
So, Ye Anxin called Yueyue to plan a shopping outing with her family of four.
Yueyue, having been cooped up at ho for quite so ti, readily accepted Ye Anxin’s invitation after her call!
Ye Anxin set the eting spot, then summoned Xiao Bai and Mu Beiting to change clothes and have breakfast before heading out!
Today, Ling Yueyue also brought Huo Junmo along, with Tiantian beside them, but no sign of Tiantian!
Ye Anxin looked around but still didn’t see Tiantian, so she couldn’t help but ask, "Where’s Tiantian?"
Ling Yueyue shrugged helplessly, "He’s at ho studying! Tried bringing him out, but he said it’s boring, calling shopping a won’s thing and refused to co out! Since he didn’t want to co, I didn’t insist!"
Ye Anxin couldn’t help but exclaim, "Tiantian’s grown up, like a real man now!"
Recalling their first eting, Tiantian was still a mischievous little rascal! Ti flies, and six years have passed in the blink of an eye! Tiantian seed to have completely changed, becoming much more mature and sensible! Also, more shy and reserved!
Hearing Ye Anxin praise Huo Jiantian, Xiao Bai got upset, pouting, "If it wasn’t for that woman at ho, I wouldn’t be out with you!"
Ye Anxin was taken aback, soon realizing Xiao Bai’s aning, and chuckled, "Okay, okay! Our Xiao Bai’s also grown, a real man! You’re accompanying shopping because I forced you, is that good enough?"
"Hmph!" Xiao Bai scoffed disdainfully, turning his head away from Ye Anxin.
Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but knock Xiao Bai’s head lightly, threatening, "Xiao Bai, I’m warning you, if Chuxia sees you like this, your idol status in her heart will be in jeopardy! She’ll certainly shift her affections and fall for soone else!"
Xiao Bai rubbed his sore head, pouted, and nonchalantly said, "Great! I’d love so peace and quiet!"
Ling Yueyue shook her head, intentionally sighed, "Sigh! I wonder what misfortunes Chuxia had in her past life to end up liking such a cold-hearted man like you! You’re just like your dad was, heartlessly appalling!"
As Ling Yueyue finished her comnt, Mu Beiting and Xiao Bai both had their expressions change.
"Yueyue!" Seeing Mu Beiting and Xiao Bai’s unpleasant expressions, Ye Anxin warned, glaring at Ling Yueyue.
"Oh my! I was just joking! Look at your two n, can’t even take a joke! Since we’re out, let’s seize the mont to shop! It’s rare to have good weather without snow today!" With that, she hooked Ye Anxin’s arm, pulling her ahead.
Tiantian was left in Huo Junmo’s care, while Xiao Bai followed Mu Beiting.
Walking ahead, Ling Yueyue browsed the stores while leaning close to Ye Anxin’s ear to whispered, "Hey, Ye Anxin, let ask you, who’s that woman Xiao Bai ntioned? It wouldn’t be so mistress blatantly barging in, right?"
Ye Anxin sighed, helplessly said, "I would rather wish it was a mistress; if it were one, it would be easier to handle! This person is even more troubleso than a mistress!"
Ling Yueyue widened her eyes in disbelief, "No mistress? Then who? What kind of woman is so formidable, making your big and little King Yan avoid her as if they fear her?"
Ye Anxin powerlessly uttered four words, "It’s my mother-in-law!"
Ling Yueyue gasped, quickly covered her mouth, whispered, "Mother-in-law? Isn’t that Mu Beiting’s real mom?"
Ye Anxin nodded, "Yes!"
Ling Yueyue exaggeratedly said, "Well, I’ve never heard Mu Beiting actually has a mom!"
Hearing this, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes, "Uncle doesn’t have a mom, then did he pop out from a rock?"
Ling Yueyue raised her eyebrow, half-jokingly, half-seriously said, "Didn’t he? Look at his face, if he didn’t pop out from a rock, what else could he be? How could a normal person produce soone like him?"
After hearing Ling Yueyue’s words, Ye Anxin unimpressedly said, "Yueyue! If you keep talking like this about Uncle, I’m going to be angry!"
