Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!-Chapter 248: Having Your Cake and Eating It Too
"Alright! Asking you is like asking nothing!" Ye Anxin sighed helplessly.
She also knew that this man was someone who turned a deaf ear to things outside his window! It’s normal not to know! She realized asking him was a silly move.
Mu Beiting handed the menu to Ye Anxin, "What do you want to eat?"
Ye Anxin looked at the menu in her hand and found the things she usually liked to eat all tasteless! Instead, she was craving dishes she normally wouldn’t even consider.
So, Ye Anxin ordered a few dishes that looked delicious to her current appetite.
Listening to Ye Anxin ordering the food, Mu Beiting’s brow furrowed unconsciously.
Ye Anxin smiled awkwardly, "Haha! These look so good; I’ve never tried them before, so I want to give them a shot today!"
Mu Beiting gave her a glance but didn’t speak.
After ordering her food, Ye Anxin asked, "Uncle, do you want to order for yourself, or should I order for you?"
Mu Beiting simply said, "You order!"
"Okay!" Ye Anxin acknowledged cheerfully and quickly ordered a few dishes that Mu Beiting usually loved.
Mu Beiting always preferred lighter tastes and disliked greasiness, similar to her previous preferences!
However, she suddenly found her mouth tasteless and wanted something spicy, so today she made an exception and ordered something that looked very spicy for herself.
Sure enough, when the dishes were served, Ye Anxin’s appetite surged, and she quickly ate two bowls of rice without any symptoms of nausea or vomiting.
While eating, Mu Beiting glanced at her and then lowered his eyes to continue eating.
After eating her fill, Ye Anxin contentedly touched her full stomach, her lips curling into a satisfied smile.
Mu Beiting looked at her and asked plainly, "Do you want to rest a bit before leaving?"
"No need! The book I was reading earlier is getting exciting; I want to go back and finish it!" Ye Anxin shook her head and was about to stand up using the chair for support. But Mu Beiting was quicker, standing up first and lifting her into his arms.
Ye Anxin gave him a sweet smile, "Let’s go!"
"Hmm!" Mu Beiting nodded, letting Ye Anxin hook her arm around his as they walked out of the private room side by side.
This was a very upscale western restaurant, frequented by high-end clientele!
So, walking down the corridor, it wasn’t as noisy as other restaurants.
Ye Anxin held onto Mu Beiting’s arm as they walked, her gaze inadvertently glancing over the tightly closed doors of each private room as they passed!
Suddenly, as they passed a particular room, Ye Anxin was completely stunned, as if rooted to the spot, unable to move an inch.
She... she had just seen an unbelievable scene.
What did she see?
Through the slightly ajar private room door, she clearly saw a man and a woman inside.
The man was pressing the woman onto the ground, passionately kissing her, his hands wantonly roaming all over her body.
Usually, such a situation between a man and a woman in a moment of passion was perfectly normal!
However, it just so happened that this man was Gu Xingchen, who had a fiancée! And the woman was Shengxia, who had just entered with him. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
How could this be? Gu Xingchen was clearly engaged to Ruan Zhitong! Why was he here being intimate with another woman?
At this moment, did he think of Ruan Zhitong? What did he take Ruan Zhitong as?
Just then, she felt a strong sense of pity for Ruan Zhitong! Her fiancé being so close with another woman behind her back!
For some reason, she, who usually didn’t meddle in others’ affairs, suddenly developed a special feeling about this irrelevant matter.
Perhaps because this matter involved Ruan Zhitong? Or maybe because, indirectly, it had something to do with Uncle?
Anyway, she herself didn’t know what she was thinking? She just felt very conflicted and complex inside!
As Ye Anxin stopped walking, Mu Beiting paused too, following Ye Anxin’s line of sight.
Upon seeing the two people in the private room absorbed in their kiss, Gu Xingchen had even begun to remove Shengxia’s clothes.
Mu Beiting’s brows furrowed sharply, and he strode forward, closing the private room door in front of Ye Anxin without hesitation.
Mu Beiting said domineeringly, "Don’t look!"
Ye Anxin asked, confused, "Why?"
"No reason! Let’s go!" Mu Beiting’s brow furrowed even tighter, taking Ye Anxin’s hand to lead her away.
Ye Anxin held onto Mu Beiting’s arm, unwilling to leave, stubbornly asking, "Uncle, what exactly is the relationship between this woman and Mr. Gu? They definitely aren’t just ordinary friends, right?"
Mu Beiting remained silent, his lips pressed tightly, a hint of displeasure in his eyes as he looked at her.
For a moment, the surrounding air became somewhat strange.
At that moment, the private room door opened! Gu Xingchen stood at the door, looking at the tense pair outside, grinning, and spoke gently, "So it’s you two! Have you finished eating?"
Ye Anxin didn’t respond, her gaze darting past him to Shengxia inside the room.
She saw Shengxia with her back to the door, lowering her head and hastily tidying her clothes.
"Let’s go!" Mu Beiting took in all of Ye Anxin’s small movements, grabbed her hand, and dominantly led her away.
This time, Ye Anxin didn’t resist, following along in a daze, yet her gaze remained fixed on that private room, even as they moved further away, turning her head to keep looking at Gu Xingchen, still standing at the room entrance.
Not until Mu Beiting turned a corner with her, completely blocking the view, did she finally turn her head back.
Walking next to Mu Beiting, Ye Anxin said angrily, "Uncle, since Mr. Gu is already engaged to Miss Ruan, why would he still be intimate with another woman like that? Does he not know that if Miss Ruan saw it, she would be heartbroken?"
Mu Beiting replied without looking back, "That’s their business, it doesn’t concern you!"
Ye Anxin looked at him and said meaningfully, "I... I’m just curious! Is it that all men can eat from the bowl while watching the pot?"
"Don’t know!" Mu Beiting still replied in a very flat tone, without any clear fluctuation.
"What about you, Uncle?" At his words, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but recall the scene she saw outside the Jiangcheng Hotel that night, her uncontrollable words blurting out.
For some reason, although that matter had passed, today’s events left her with a creeping sense of unease.
If Gu Xingchen and Ruan Zhitong were no longer a couple, wouldn’t her crisis be coming? Would the incident she saw outside the Jiangcheng Hotel that night become a reality? Would she lose Uncle then?
She was scared; she didn’t want to lose Uncle!
So, she urgently wanted to know Uncle’s answer!
She had said, as long as Uncle denied it, whether or not it came from the heart, even if it was just to coax her, she would believe it.
