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

Chapter 893: Chapter 936: Compromise

Ruan Zhitong wasn’t anxious, she just sat on the ground waiting for Mu Beiting’s answer!

She was betting, betting on Ye Anxin!

Based on her understanding of Ye Anxin, Ye Anxin would definitely not stand by and watch so many people die in front of her!

So, the result is inevitable!

She was sure she would be fine today! Mu Beiting would definitely let her go!

As expected, Mu Beiting just quietly looked at Ruan Zhitong for a while, then parted his thin lips and said slowly, ”I can let you go, but you must give me the antidote first!”

Ruan Zhitong replied calmly, ”If I give you the antidote, what if you don’t let me go?”

Mu Beiting declared solemnly, ”I, Mu Beiting, always keep my word, I mean what I say!”

Ruan Zhitong sneered disdainfully, ”Sorry, I only trust myself right now! So, if you want to save them, let me go first! Once I’ve safely left here, I’ll tell you where the antidote is!”

Ye Anxin reacted incredulously, ”But they only have ten minutes, you won’t be down the mountain in ten minutes!”

Ruan Zhitong laughed and said, ”Don’t worry, ten minutes is just the time I’ve given Mu Beiting! After ten minutes, I won’t take their lives! They’ll at least endure for another hour, and by then, I’ll have reached a safe place!”

Ye Anxin asked again, ”If we let you go, how will you give us the antidote?”

Ruan Zhitong replied with composure, ”Then you just wait for my call! Once I’m safe, I will naturally call you and tell you where the antidote is stored!”

Hearing this, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but frown, ”What if you don’t call me?”

Ruan Zhitong raised her eyebrows and said calmly, ”Rest assured, once I’m safe, why would I burden myself with so many lives? Besides, their lives don’t matter to me at all! From the beginning to the end, all I want is Ye Anxin’s life!”

Although Ruan Zhitong said this, Ye Anxin still didn’t quite trust her, ”You’re so cunning, how can we trust you?”

”Then you can only gamble! Watch them die here, or take a chance, let me go, and save their lives!” Ruan Zhitong smiled at Ye Anxin, her calm and collected demeanor was as if she were a ruler with the fate of the world in her grasp, standing at the pinnacle of victory!

She knew that Ye Anxin would ultimately compromise! She would surely leave here safely!

Ye Anxin bit her lip tightly, looking at Mu Beiting in distress, unsure of how to choose.

If she let Ruan Zhitong go and she broke her promise, the servants in the house would die in vain!

However, if she didn’t let her go, the servants would still die.

Whether to release her or not, whichever choice was made seemed wrong!

Some servants had been serving for over ten years, and even the shortest had been here for two or three years! She had already built a deep connection with them! Especially the housekeeper! Ever since she married Uncle, the housekeeper had been at this home, always taking good care of him!

During the five years she was away, the housekeeper had always done everything possible to let her see Xiao Bai! The housekeeper treated her with profound kindness, how could she watch him die because of her!

Thinking of this, Ye Anxin didn’t think further and decisively said, ”Okay, I believe you! If we let you leave and you don’t call to tell us about the antidote, I will hunt you down to the ends of the earth and I won’t spare you! I will make you pay with them!”

Getting Ye Anxin’s answer, Ruan Zhitong smiled smugly, ”Relax! I have no interest in their lives! I poisoned them just to save my own life! Killing them would dirty my hands!”

Ye Anxin bit her teeth, unwillingly looking at Ruan Zhitong before turning to Pete, saying, ”Brother Pete, please arrange a car to take her away!”

”Alright!” Pete nodded, not looking at Mu Beiting, instead, he directly followed Ye Anxin’s instructions.

He knew that any request from the Madame would be agreed upon by the President without hesitation! Even if he asked the President, the answer would surely be the same!

He carried out his orders promptly, perhaps earning the President’s favor.

Soon afterward, Pete arranged the car!

Ruan Zhitong got up from the ground, unhurriedly tidied her hair and clothes, then wiped her face to remove the dust, and, under everyone’s gaze, calmly and proudly walked out!

Watching her leave unscathed despite doing so many bad things, Ye Anxin and the house servants felt indignant, yet helpless!

After Ruan Zhitong left, Mu Beiting gave Pete a look, Pete nodded silently and followed her out.

Ye Anxin hooked her arm around Mu Beiting’s, expressing regret, ”Uncle, will you blame me for letting Ruan Zhitong go on my own accord?”

Mu Beiting patted her hand, smiling reassuringly, ”No! Even if you hadn’t, I would have let her go; you just followed my orders!”

”Hmm!” Ye Anxin nodded, squinting with a smile at Mu Beiting, then stood up and instructed the unaffected servants to help those who collapsed and were moaning painfully to their beds to rest!

The servants nodded, quickly bending down to help the collapsed ones to their quarters.

Once the servants left, the once-crowded hall instantly only had Ye Anxin, Mu Beiting, and little Chu Yi!

Ye Anxin glanced at little Chu Yi in Mu Beiting’s arms, surprised to see that she had fallen asleep in such a lively situation, shook her head helplessly, and expressed concern, ”Uncle, Ruan Zhitong is so cunning, letting her go this time, who knows what she’ll do next! I’m really worried!”

Mu Beiting gently reassured, ”Don’t worry, I have arrangements!”

”Hmm!” Ye Anxin obediently nodded, taking little Chu Yi from Mu Beiting’s arms, whispered, ”She probably is tired after a few hours flight, I’ll take her upstairs to let her rest well!”

Mu Beiting nodded, ”Hmm! You carry her up, I have some matters to deal with here!”

”Alright!” Ye Anxin responded, carrying little Chu Yi up the stairs!

Shortly after Ye Anxin left, Pete came in quietly with a blue folder in his hand, ”President, I’ve already sent people to secretly follow Ruan Zhitong, after she calls Madam, she’ll be captured immediately!”

Mu Beiting nodded in satisfaction, ”Hmm!”

Pete handed the blue folder to Mu Beiting, ”Also, this is the background info of Ruan Zhitong’s company forces! The people from the United States have already looked into this thoroughly!”
