Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!-Chapter 264: Meticulous Scheming

"You must be hungry! Come, come, eat something quickly! If you don’t eat, how can you recover? The child is gone, but you’re still young, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future! You can only try again if you take care of your body now!" As she spoke, she was about to help Ye Anxin sit up.

Hearing her words, Ye Anxin’s gaze dimmed, and her heart twisted painfully.

"Shut up!" Mu Beiting glanced coldly at Ling Yueyue, forcibly stopping Ling Yueyue’s actions. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

It was only then that Ling Yueyue realized she had misspoken, and she hurried to explain, "Anxin, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it! I was just trying to comfort you!"

Ye Anxin forced a stiff smile, "It’s okay, you’re just stating the truth!"

Being told that by Ye Anxin, Ling Yueyue felt even more embarrassed.

Mu Beiting glared at her coldly, placed the thermal lunch box on the bedside table, then helped Ye Anxin sit up properly before seating himself by the bed, opening the lunch box, and feeding her bit by bit with a spoon.

Looking at the spoon by her mouth, Ye Anxin said disinterestedly, "Uncle, I don’t want to eat!"

Thinking of the lost child, she had no appetite!

Mu Beiting insisted domineeringly, "You must eat!"

Ye Anxin pouted but eventually opened her mouth and dutifully swallowed all the porridge from the spoon.

This porridge was much more watery than the last, mostly liquid with only a few grains of rice.

Ling Yueyue sat down on a stool by the bed and, seeing Mu Beiting being so meticulous and gentle, teased, "The housekeeper said he made the porridge according to Mu Beiting’s instructions, with a large pot of rice. He brought you all the rice soup, leaving only a few grains so you’d have enough nutrients. This is personally ordered by your Uncle!"

Ye Anxin cast a grateful look at Mu Beiting.

A suspicious blush appeared on Mu Beiting’s handsome face, but his hands didn’t stop.

Because the porridge was hot and mostly rice soup, it felt much better in her stomach this time!

Although she still felt uncomfortable and nauseous, she didn’t throw it all up.

Mu Beiting didn’t feed too much, just a little over half a bowl as usual to Ye Anxin.

After Ye Anxin finished eating, Ling Yueyue tentatively asked, "Hey, Mu Beiting, the housekeeper also brought you some food, it’s outside! Do you want to eat?"

Hearing this, Ye Anxin quickly said, "Uncle, you haven’t eaten yet? Go eat!"

Ling Yueyue pouted, "Seeing you like this, how could your Uncle have any appetite! I heard from the housekeeper that since you’ve been in the hospital for days, your Uncle hasn’t eaten for those days either! If Pete hadn’t persuaded him to eat a little, he’d have starved, and wouldn’t be here with you now!"

Ye Anxin looked at Mu Beiting’s haggard and thin face, feeling even more guilty in her heart.

Yes! She shouldn’t have let Uncle worry for her!

The child was gone, and as much as she was grieving, Uncle was grieving just as much!

But she still needed Uncle to comfort her, to console her! She really shouldn’t have.

Ye Anxin lowered her gaze and said apologetically, "Uncle, I’m sorry!"

Mu Beiting frowned, gave Ling Yueyue a warning look, and said coldly, "I told you, I don’t like hearing those three words!"

Ye Anxin took a deep breath, forced a smile, and said with a forced cheerfulness, "Alright! If Uncle doesn’t like it, then I won’t say it! I promise you, I will pull myself together quickly, I won’t let you worry about me!"

"Okay." Mu Beiting nodded gently.

"Alright, alright, eat first! I’ll go get the food! It’s only when you ask him that he’ll eat!" Ling Yueyue playfully left a sentence and went out to get Mu Beiting’s lunch box.

Mu Beiting’s thin lips slightly curved, he reached out to touch Ye Anxin’s cheek.

Ye Anxin didn’t move, obediently letting Mu Beiting touch her.

Ling Yueyue opened the door and saw this scene, couldn’t help but roll her eyes, "Alright, stop flaunting your affection, hurry and eat!"

Ye Anxin’s face flushed, and she lowered her head.

Mu Beiting withdrew his hand, took the thermal lunch box Ling Yueyue handed over, opened it, and a fragrant aroma wafted out.

Mu Beiting ate slowly and deliberately.

Ling Yueyue glanced at Mu Beiting and shook her head helplessly.

Although she and Mu Beiting had kept vigil outside the ward all night, after Mu Beiting entered the ward, she couldn’t stand the hunger any longer and went with her aunt to a small restaurant near the hospital to eat!

Even though she was sad, she couldn’t starve the baby in her belly.

Having learned from Ye Anxin’s previous lesson, she was even more cautious!

Although she had always had a healthy pregnancy without morning sickness or malnutrition, she wanted to be careful!

Seeing Anxin stable, Ling Yueyue tentatively asked, "Anxin, Aunt has been outside the ward, do you want to see her?"

Ye Anxin was startled and quickly asked, "My mom is outside? Why didn’t you let her in?"

"Aunt feels guilty, always thinking she’s the one who harmed the child in your belly, so she didn’t dare to come in, fearing you wouldn’t want to see her!" Ling Yueyue said cautiously, afraid of unintentionally touching Ye Anxin’s wound again.

Hearing this, Ye Anxin instinctively touched her now flat stomach, tried hard to suppress the sadness in her eyes, forced a smile, "Let my mom in! I don’t blame her! This has nothing to do with her!"

As soon as Ye Anxin finished speaking, Mother Ye, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, immediately pushed the door open. Seeing Ye Anxin sitting on the hospital bed, looking worn out, her tears, which were barely held back, started falling again. She rushed to the bed and hugged Ye Anxin, "Anxin, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault! Please forgive me!"

Ye Anxin sighed helplessly and consoled, "Mom, what are you saying! I don’t blame you! This has nothing to do with you!"

Mother Ye remorsefully blamed herself, "If I had known you were pregnant, I would have never taken you to the casino! We’ve been there so many times without incident, but it just had to happen this time!"

"Sigh!" Ling Yueyue sighed inwardly as she listened from the side.

Given how things were arranged that day, it was clear it was someone’s deliberate plan. So, the incident was inevitable.

Ye Anxin’s family of three were just being toyed with by someone.

Ye Anxin smiled bitterly, touching the tears on her mother’s face, "Mom, let’s leave it in the past. We won’t bring it up again!"

Mother Ye gave herself a hard slap, "Even though you don’t blame me, I blame myself! And that useless father of yours! It’s him, all because of him! If he weren’t so addicted to gambling, none of this would have happened!"

Ye Anxin hurriedly grabbed Mother Ye’s hand and asked, "Where’s Dad?"

Indeed, this was Father Ye’s fault, all of it stemmed from him!

It would be a lie to say she didn’t blame him!

If he had shown a little more spine, so many things wouldn’t have happened to them!
