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

Chapter 780: Chapter 823: Bottomless Pit

Hearing this, Ye’s mother couldn’t help but knock Ye Anxin on the forehead, ”You brat, I’m so angry I could die, and you’re making fun of me!”

Ye Anxin rubbed her forehead, which was now hurting, and said with a smile, ”I’m not making fun of you! Look, all these years, Ye Shan is the only one who can make you this angry! Mom, don’t get too upset, it’s not worth it to harm your health because of him!”

”Sigh! I don’t want to be angry either! But every time I think about how he’s like a shadow that follows me everywhere and I can’t shake him off, I just get so mad!” Ye’s mother said, closing her eyes and taking deep breaths repeatedly, all the while using her hand to soothe her chest!

Seeing her mother so upset, she just giggled quietly on the side.

After a while, Ye’s mother finally calmed down!

”Mom, don’t be mad anymore. Come on, let’s cook together! It’s been a long time since we cooked and ate together as mother and daughter!” To distract her mother from Ye Shan’s issues, Ye Anxin pulled her up from the sofa and pushed her towards the kitchen!

Ye’s mother didn’t resist, and when the two of them arrived in the kitchen, Sister Qing happened to be taking the morning’s groceries out of the shopping bags!

Ye Anxin walked over and said with a smile, ”Sister Qing, why don’t you take a break today? My mom and I will cook together!”

Sister Qing quickly said, ”How can that be! You hired me, how can I let Madam and Miss do the cooking! Madam and Miss should go rest! I’ll cook!”

Seeing that Sister Qing misunderstood, Ye Anxin quickly explained with a smile, ”Sister Qing, don’t worry. I just haven’t cooked with my mom in a long time, and I want to reminisce with her! We’re just trying to bond as mother and daughter here!”

”Oh, I see!” Hearing Ye Anxin say this, Sister Qing nodded, but still didn’t seem to want to leave with the vegetable in her hands.

The reason she didn’t leave isn’t for any other reason! It’s because she’s paid, and watching the two hosts cook while she rests outside and later eats the food they prepared makes her feel awkward!

Noticing Sister Qing’s concerns, Ye’s mother quickly reassured her, ”Sister Qing, if you feel embarrassed, just do some cleaning outside! Anxin and I will cook! We can split the work!”

Hearing Ye’s mother say this, Sister Qing finally smiled without any worries, ”Alright, alright, I’ll go clean up, and I’ll leave the cooking to Madam and Miss!”

”Okay!” Ye’s mother and Ye Anxin nodded simultaneously, and Sister Qing then left the kitchen.

After Sister Qing went out, Ye Anxin and her mother started to prepare the ingredients and cook in the kitchen, chatting as they worked, never mentioning Ye Shan’s issue at all.

Even though Ye Anxin hadn’t cooked in a long time, her movements were still practiced and she worked efficiently!

In no time, a table full of dishes was ready!

Originally, Sister Qing felt too awkward to eat at the same table with Ye Anxin because of her visit, but she couldn’t resist Ye Anxin and her mother’s persuasion, so in the end, she joined them.

While eating, Ye Anxin said to her mother, ”Mom, I talked to Uncle this morning, and since we can’t make it on Saturday, we’ll come over for lunch on Sunday with Xiao Bai and Chu Yi!”

Hearing Ye Anxin’s words, Ye’s mother’s eyes lit up instantly, and she said excitedly, ”Really? That’s wonderful! Tell me later what Beiting and Xiao Bai like to eat, so I can make a note. Then on Sunday, I’ll buy more of their favorite dishes when Sister Qing and I go shopping!”

”Okay!” Seeing her mother so happy, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but feel joyful herself.

Ye Anxin and her mother finished their meal together, and after Sister Qing cleaned up the dishes, Ye Anxin stood up and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, Ye Shan quickly ran out from a corner nearby.

Ye Anxin looked Ye Shan up and down before saying emotionlessly, ”Come in, I have something to say to you!”

”Okay!” Thinking his sincerity had moved Ye Anxin and her mother, Ye Shan nodded eagerly and followed her inside.

Ye Anxin pointed to the sofa and said, ”Sit down!”

Ye Shan obediently sat down on the sofa.

Ye Anxin sat there calmly with her arms crossed, and spoke solemnly, ”Since you’re here, let’s be honest! Tell me, how much money do you need to leave my mom alone? Just name your price, and I’ll agree!”

Hearing Ye Anxin’s words, Ye Shan’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but swallow.

Just a little more, almost a bit more, and he nearly named a price!

But just as he was about to speak, he thought of that woman and suddenly shivered, forcing the words back down!

Seeing Ye Shan not speaking, Ye Anxin just thought he hadn’t made up his mind, and spoke again, ”A million? Five million? Eight million? How much will satisfy you?”

Hearing Ye Anxin’s offer, Ye Shan seemed to see piles of red bills right in front of his eyes! But when he reached out to grab them, they flew away like birds with wings!

Watching so much money fly away, Ye Shan felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if it was being torn out!

Hearing Ye Anxin offer so much money to Ye Shan, Ye’s mother became anxious, ”Anxin, why give him money, what right does he have to get money! Don’t give him money, just let him get lost!”

They, ordinary people, could live comfortably for a lifetime with a million! Yet her daughter wanted to give this ungrateful man five million, eight million! That was Mu Beiting’s hard-earned money, why should Ye Shan, this scoundrel, benefit from it!

Back then, Ye Shan squandered the five million they paid him in just half a year! No matter how much money Ye Anxin gave him, he would still use it up and come back for more!

Ye Shan was a bottomless pit, no matter how much you put in, it would never be enough!

Ye Anxin patted her mother’s hand and comforted, ”Mom, don’t worry, you think this money is just given to him for nothing? He has to complete the divorce procedures with you before I give him the money! Once the divorce is finalized, there will be no ties between you, period! Otherwise...letting him cling to you forever isn’t a solution either! Would you really want Uncle to get angry enough to chop him up? I don’t want Uncle to dirty his hands!”

Ye’s mother declared firmly, ”A divorce certificate worth millions, if that’s so, I’d rather not have that divorce certificate!”

”Mom...just hold on, let me finish talking to him, and then I’ll tell you! This matter needs to be resolved, dragging it out isn’t a solution!” With that, she signaled to her mother, making her swallow back the words she wanted to say!
