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

Chapter 616: Chapter 659: The Reason for Her Return

Mu Beiting raised an eyebrow, ”I’m the boss. If I want to leave now, who can stop me?”

Hearing this, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes, ”Yes, yes! You’re the boss, you’re the biggest, it’s up to you! Since you’re done, let’s go home then!”

”Mm!” Mu Beiting nodded, supporting Ye Anxin as she stood up, then together they walked over to the coat rack. He first put on his own coat and then helped Ye Anxin with hers.

Leaving the office, the two took the elevator straight to the underground parking lot.

The business car slowly cruised down the road. The snow had been falling since morning and hadn’t stopped, though there wasn’t much, the low temperature prevented it from melting. The snow on the flower beds had accumulated into a thick layer, and on the road, where vehicles frequently passed, visible were patches of snow compressed into gray or black thin ice.

Seeing the snowflakes fluttering against the car window, Ye Anxin inadvertently thought of Mo Xuehong, who had fainted at the entrance of Mu Group, and couldn’t help but ask, ”Uncle, why do you think Mo Xuehong came back?”

Mu Beiting replied flatly, ”Whatever her reason for coming back, it has nothing to do with me!”

”But it’s been a whole twenty-five years! For twenty-five years she’s been missing without a trace! Why suddenly come back now? If she was afraid of the old man’s power and didn’t dare to come looking for you, ten years ago, when you completely took over Mu Group, she could have returned! At that point, the old man posed no threat to her! Yet, why did she choose to return now?” Over the past few days, she had almost completely forgotten about Mo Xuehong!

However, seeing her again today, she felt that Mo Xuehong’s reasons for returning were not simple! Otherwise, from what she knew of Mo Xuehong, she wasn’t someone who would lower herself like that!

The saying goes that one’s nature is hard to change, and she didn’t believe Mo Xuehong could change so much overnight! Over a month ago, she was still so haughty and overbearing! In just over a month, did she truly repent?

Twenty-five years hadn’t changed her, so how could just over a month do it!

Therefore, she couldn’t help but feel that something was off about this, something she couldn’t quite put her finger on!

After listening to Ye Anxin, Mu Beiting’s expression didn’t change at all. He gently rubbed Ye Anxin’s head and said warmly, ”Don’t overthink it! Just focus on nurturing the baby, and wait for the child in your belly to be born!”

Ye Anxin frowned, uneasy, ”I don’t want to think about it either! But my mind drifts there unconsciously! I’m worried about you, Uncle, afraid that Mo Xuehong’s return this time isn’t pure, and that she might harm you again!”

Hearing this, Mu Beiting pulled Ye Anxin into his arms, softly brushing her back with his big hand, ”Aside from you, no one in this world can hurt me!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Anxin pouted, retorting, ”I’m just a weak woman, I rely on you for food and drink, you’re a whole head taller than me, how could I hurt you! Don’t you frame me!”

Mu Beiting pinched Ye Anxin’s chin with his thumb and index finger, gently lifting her head, his nose touching hers, speaking slowly in his deep and rich voice, ”The pain in the heart is a hundred, a thousand times worse than any physical pain!” Saying this, he placed Ye Anxin’s hand over his heart on the left side of his chest, ”Here, it’s only ever hurt for you!”

With her hand pressed firmly against Mu Beiting’s chest, Ye Anxin could clearly feel the heartbeat pulsing beneath her palm!

She knew that what Uncle said must be true, as he’s not one to speak sweet nothings or try to make her happy!

She realized just how deeply she had hurt him! While she was wounded, licking her wounds alone in a corner, maybe he was the same way! And Uncle must have been more hurt, more pained than she was! Because Uncle is more persistent.

Ye Anxin pouted her red lips, deliberately saying, ”You’re just saying sweet words to make me happy! I don’t believe you’ve only ever been hurt because of me! Eleven years ago, when Zhitong left you, are you telling me that didn’t hurt?”

Without a second thought, Mu Beiting answered firmly, ”No!”

Ye Anxin blinked, puzzled, ”But why is the version I heard completely different from what you’re saying?”

Mu Beiting didn’t answer but instead asked, ”So who do you believe?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Anxin smiled with her lips pursed, quickly pecking his lips and said with a smile in her eyes, ”Of course, I believe Uncle! No matter what Uncle says, I believe it!”

Hearing her words, Mu Beiting unreservedly laughed, his attractive thin lips parting into a wide smile, revealing a row of white, neat teeth!

This was the first time Ye Anxin had seen him smile so brilliantly! Even if he smiled in front of her previously, it was always a slight smile, never this wide grin!

Ye Anxin’s eyes glazed over, involuntarily saying, ”Uncle, you look so handsome when you smile, you should smile more often!”

Hearing this, Mu Beiting’s smile widened, and he lowered his head to give Ye Anxin a strong kiss on the lips!

Just as he was about to pull away, Ye Anxin suddenly hooked her arms around his neck, gently pulling him down, pressing her red lips against his attractive thin lips once more!

The moment their lips met, Mu Beiting reached out, cupping the back of Ye Anxin’s head, bringing her closer, tighter against himself!

In the car, the two began to kiss passionately and unabashedly!

The temperature inside the car gradually rose higher, with Mu Beiting almost pressing Ye Anxin entirely onto the seat!

Just as things were getting out of hand, Mu Beiting suddenly detached himself, sitting to one side, his handsome face flushed red, breathing heavily!

Ye Anxin’s cheeks were also flushed red, thinking about the driver in front, she wished she could find a hole to hide in!

After a while, the two finally extricated themselves from the fervent atmosphere, Mu Beiting extending his long arm, pulling Ye Anxin up from the seat, his voice hoarse as he asked, ”Are you okay?”

Ye Anxin hung her head low, shaking it with a red face.

Mu Beiting quietly pulled her into his arms, straightening out her messy clothes and hair!

The car drove all the way to the Mu Family Villa, and by the time they returned, it was completely dark! Xiao Bai had also finished his class and was sitting on the sofa in the living room waiting for them to come back.

Seeing them enter, he quickly stood up, smiling as he greeted them, ”Dad, Mom, you’re back?”

Ye Anxin patted Xiao Bai’s head, speaking softly, ”Yes! It’s too cold outside, so we came back early!”

”Oh!” Xiao Bai responded, then shouted towards the kitchen, ”Butler, Dad and Mom are back, serve the meal!”

”Yes!” The butler responded, quickly directing the servants to bring out the dishes!

Because the weather was so cold, each dish was covered to keep it warm!
