"Mm!" Ye Anxin nodded affirmatively.
Ling Yueyue asked, puzzled, "He’s Mu Beiting, but who’s that woman with him? If you weren’t sitting next to me right now, I’d have thought the person with him was you!" Saying this, Ling Yueyue seemed to suddenly remember something, staring at Ye Anxin with wide eyes, exclaimed incredulously, "Wait...that woman...it wasn’t you having dinner with Mu Beiting last night, but her, right?"
Thinking about Anxin’s reaction when she called her last night, and recalling how Anxin told her previously that she had to stay home to take care of the child and couldn’t go out!
Ling Yueyue suddenly seemed to realize something!
Ye Anxin just stared blankly at Mu Beiting and that woman, without answering Ling Yueyue’s question!
Instead, Ling Yueyue couldn’t sit still anymore, she jumped up from the bench angrily, "I’m so mad, I’m going over to ask what the relationship between Mu Beiting and this woman is! How can he go out on a date with another woman behind your back! It’s really infuriating!"
"Yueyue...! Don’t go!" Ye Anxin grabbed Ling Yueyue’s arm, preventing her from leaving!
Ling Yueyue retorted angrily, "Why not go? Regardless of their relationship, we need to go over and clarify things!"
"Oh, sit back down! I’m not agitated, why are you getting so worked up?" With that, Ye Anxin pushed Ling Yueyue back onto the bench to sit down.
"You’re...you’re really...so useless! He’s openly with another woman, and you won’t even go ask! If it were me, I’d definitely go over directly!" Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but roll her eyes, feeling exasperated at Anxin.
Ye Anxin replied indifferently, "I’m not letting you go because there’s no need! Uncle is just standing next to a woman, there’s no intimate gestures between them! I trust Uncle and believe in him—they must be innocent! If I were to confront Uncle now, wouldn’t it imply I don’t trust his feelings for me?"
Ling Yueyue responded irritably, "It’s precisely because you trust him that you need to clarify! Better than keeping it to yourself and letting your mind wander!"
"Don’t rush, let me call Uncle! If he tells me he’s with this woman right now, it means he’s facing everything honestly without issues! If he lies, then we can discuss it further!" Saying this, she took her phone out from her pocket and dialed Mu Beiting’s number!
Ye Anxin stood by the bench, her gaze drifting to Mu Beiting as she made the call! frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
As the call went through, she clearly saw Mu Beiting take his phone out of his pocket, glance at the caller ID, and then answer it, "Anxin, why are you calling me now?"
Seeing Mu Beiting open his thin lips slightly as he spoke, Ye Anxin clearly witnessed it.
"I miss you!" Ye Anxin didn’t go straight to the point! She knew, with someone as smart as Uncle, if she asked right away where he was, he’d surely become suspicious, so she began the conversation normally.
Ye Anxin clearly saw that when she expressed missing him, Mu Beiting’s face revealed a noticeable happy smile, and he responded softly, "Good girl, the company has been busy lately, no time to be with you! Once this hectic period is over, I’ll spend time at home with you properly!"
Seeing all of Mu Beiting’s expressions, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but smile slightly too, and reminded him out of concern, "Busy or not, you must remember to have lunch! Don’t overwork your body!"
Mu Beiting chuckled and replied, "I know, you too! If taking care of Chu Yi is too exhausting, let the nanny help more, don’t always do it alone!"
"Mm! I know!" Ye Anxin nodded, then changed the subject, "Is Uncle at the company now? Have you had lunch? Did you order takeout or eat out with Pete?"
As this question came out, Ye Anxin’s heart was almost in her throat!
She kept praying silently, hoping Mu Beiting would tell her he was out with a woman!
If Uncle was willing to say it, it proved they indeed had nothing going on! But if he hid it, not telling the truth, it proved Uncle was indeed deceiving her!
Unfortunately, heavens seemed asleep, not hearing Ye Anxin’s prayer, as Mu Beiting calmly replied, "I’m at the company, Pete ordered takeout, it’s yet to arrive!"
"Oh... I see...!" Hearing Mu Beiting’s answer, Ye Anxin’s heart instantly sank.
She only felt a cold sensation spreading from her feet to her entire body!
Mu Beiting asked with concern, "Did shopping tire you out today? If you’re tired, head back earlier!"
Though deeply disappointed, Ye Anxin managed to pull her lips into a smile, answering, "I know! I’m going to eat with Yueyue now, after which we’ll shop a bit more and then head back! Uncle, go back to work!"
"Alright! I’ll hang up now!" With that, not waiting for Ye Anxin to hang up, he ended the call first.
Mu Beiting hung up the phone, but Ye Anxin didn’t put her phone away, instead listening to the busy tone, watching as Mu Beiting put his phone back into his pocket, then conversed with the woman beside him!
Since Ye Anxin started the call with Mu Beiting, that woman had been quietly standing by! When Mu Beiting hung up and talked to her, the woman smiled shyly, nodded, and then walked away shoulder to shoulder with Mu Beiting!
Ye Anxin’s gaze continued to follow them until they entered a restaurant, and she still didn’t withdraw her gaze, staring in a daze at the spot they vanished. freewebnσvel.cøm
"Sigh...!" Until hearing a deep sigh from beside her, Ye Anxin was jolted awake, shifting her gaze to Ling Yueyue who sighed.
"How did it go? What did Mu Beiting say?" Ling Yueyue, sitting next to Ye Anxin, heard clearly what Ye Anxin asked! However, she couldn’t hear Mu Beiting’s response!
Nonetheless, even if unheard, she could deduce just from Ye Anxin’s expression!
"He... he said...!" Ye Anxin felt a lump in her throat, wanting to speak but finding it difficult to utter.
Ling Yueyue said helplessly, "Even without you saying, I can guess! He told you he’s at the company, didn’t he?"
"Mm!" Reluctantly admitting it, Ye Anxin nodded.
Ling Yueyue sighed, stood up from the bench, "Sigh... forget it, matters between you spouses, I shouldn’t say much! Let’s go! Have a meal! If I don’t eat, I won’t have the energy to hold this little guy!"
"Mm!" Ye Anxin nodded, turned around, lowered her head, and walked silently forward!
