Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!-Chapter 244: A Close Call Without Danger

Upon hearing this, Ling Yueyue still cast a suspicious glance at them. Although she didn’t believe them, she knew they couldn’t find anything out now.

Ling Yueyue pondered for a moment, feeling that the hope was slim, but couldn’t help asking, "Did any of you see who pushed her just now?"

The classmates shook their heads in unison again, displaying a great deal of coordination, "No! There were so many people just now; we didn’t pay attention at all! Maybe it was just the crowd, and not necessarily someone pushing! Why would we push her for no reason? We don’t have any grudges!"

"...!" Ye Anxin looked at them silently, instinctively placing her hand behind her back to touch where she had been pushed.

Could it really have been that there were just too many people, causing the push?

However, she distinctly remembered feeling a pair of hands shove her with a firm force, determined to knock her down.

But then, what these classmates said also made sense. They had no animosity toward her, so they had no reason to push her!

Ling Yueyue glared at them fiercely, warning sternly, "Watch out! If I find out who pushed Anxin, you’ll regret it!"

"Hehe... no, no...! Why would we push her!" They hurriedly plastered smiles on their faces, frightened by Ling Yueyue’s sharp gaze.

Ling Yueyue nudged the dazed Ye Anxin, "Anxin, stop thinking about it. You won’t figure it out just by thinking!"

"Mm!" Ye Anxin nodded but suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly asked, "Oh right, Yueyue, who was it that pulled us at the crucial moment just now?"

She clearly remembered that if someone hadn’t pulled her in time, she would surely have ended up in the hospital by now.

"Uh... seems like it was the new transfer student!" Ling Yueyue said awkwardly.

Thinking back to how she initially mistook them for bad people, she felt very embarrassed.

At that critical moment, if it hadn’t been for them pulling her and Anxin, both of them would probably be on their way to the hospital!

Their unborn babies would certainly not have survived.

Therefore, that transfer student was practically their lifesaver!

"Where are they?" Ye Anxin anxiously searched the crowd for them but found nothing.

"Seems like they left! I was so worried about you earlier, I forgot to thank them!" Ling Yueyue rubbed the back of her head, realizing she hadn’t thanked their savior earlier.

Ye Anxin remained silent for a moment, then grabbed Ling Yueyue’s hand, "Let’s go! We’ll go home first and buy a gift to thank them tomorrow!"

"Sure! Let’s head back first, and we mustn’t just say sorry without showing it; the gift must be perfect!" Ling Yueyue agreed readily, and they held hands as they carefully made their way along the railing towards the stairs.

After leaving the school, Ye Anxin and Ling Yueyue said goodbye and each got into their family’s driver’s car.

Even after sitting in the car, Ye Anxin still felt a lingering fear. Thinking back to that scene, she was filled with terror.

But, was it really just the crowd that pushed her?

She wasn’t sure! There were indeed many people at the time, but the force of being pushed couldn’t have been that strong!

However, she had no quarrels with others, and they had no reason to push her!

If Xie Yunlu were present today, she would be sure that it was Xie Yunlu who pushed her from behind.

But, Xie Yunlu wasn’t there! So, she really couldn’t figure out who wanted her dead!

Could it really have been just the crowd?

Ye Anxin wracked her brain but still couldn’t come up with an answer!

After getting home, she took deep breaths repeatedly outside to avoid worrying Mu Beiting. After calming herself down, she walked into the villa with a smile.

Because of the sports day and the minor incident that occurred, Ye Anxin came home nearly two hours later than usual.

As soon as she entered, the butler greeted her with a smile, "Madam, you’re back! The food has just been warmed, come and eat quickly!"

"Mm!" Ye Anxin nodded, put down her things, walked into the dining room, and was about to wash her hands and eat when she paused upon seeing Mu Beiting seated at the dining table.

"Uncle, you... you... how come you’re here?" Catching sight of Mu Beiting, there was an obvious trace of surprise in Ye Anxin’s eyes.

Mu Beiting raised an eyebrow, "Shouldn’t I be here?"

Ye Anxin walked over, smiling, "No... it’s just... didn’t I tell you? I might come back late these two days, so don’t wait for me and eat first!"

Mu Beiting’s deep eyes glanced at Ye Anxin’s face, then suddenly sharpened, "Why does your face look so pale?"

Instinctively, Ye Anxin touched her face and explained with a smile, "It’s too cold at night, probably blown by the wind! No big deal!"

Mu Beiting looked at her silently, pursing his lips. After a while, he said, "Go wash your hands and eat!"

"Alright!" Ye Anxin responded sweetly, went to the kitchen to clean her hands, and sat down to the left of Mu Beiting.

"Let’s eat!" With Mu Beiting’s command, the butler instructed the servants to serve the dishes, placing already filled bowls and chopsticks in front of them.

Usually adhering to the rule of not speaking while eating or sleeping, Mu Beiting suddenly asked, "Was the sports day successful today?"

Ye Anxin smiled and answered while eating, "Yes, it went quite well!"

Mu Beiting took another mouthful of rice and asked, "Did anything unusual happen?"

Ye Anxin blinked, puzzled as to why Mu Beiting was asking that, and wondered aloud, "What kind of special thing does Uncle mean?"

Mu Beiting looked down and said lightly, "Just something unusual."

Ye Anxin bit her chopsticks, thought carefully, and finally said, "Nothing particularly unusual! Just that at the end, the crowd was too dense, and I almost fell. Otherwise, nothing special happened!"

"Fall?" Upon hearing this, Mu Beiting’s brow furrowed tightly.

Ye Anxin corrected him, "I didn’t fall, just almost did! If I had fallen, would I still be standing well in front of Uncle?"

Mu Beiting advised, "Be careful next time!"

"Don’t worry! I will be careful!" Ye Anxin was slightly surprised by Mu Beiting’s uncharacteristic response.

If it were before, Uncle would definitely not allow her to go to school!

But this time, he was only showing concern with a brief reminder!

What’s going on with Uncle? How did he suddenly become so understanding?

Though puzzled, she dared not ask! What if reminding him led to her being forbidden from going to school?

So, don’t ask, don’t ask, definitely don’t ask!

Mu Beiting glanced at Ye Anxin, who was staring at him blankly, and, with his chopsticks, pointed at the bowl in her hand, "Hurry up and eat, then go rest! You’ve had a long day!"

"Alright!" Ye Anxin quickly responded, eating in large mouthfuls.

While Mu Beiting buried himself in his meal, he shot her a sidelong glance, a complex look flashing in his deep eyes.
