Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!-Chapter 273: Change

Mu Beiting frowned and said displeasedly, "I like it!"

"Uh...!" Ye Anxin was speechless, suddenly not knowing what to say!

The gentleman’s kindness was evident: building a snowman, having a snowball fight, eating hotpot, and booking such a nice private room!

Not only did she not thank him, but she also said those things. Did that make her seem ungrateful? Is that why the gentleman is upset?

Thinking of this, Ye Anxin immediately flashed a sweet smile and said coyly, "Sir, I’m just joking! Seeing all you’ve done for me, I really am very happy! It’s so touching!"

After she finished speaking, Mu Beiting’s tense handsome face indeed started to relax, and his thin lips even curved into a barely noticeable smile.

"Sir, do you know, every winter, I particularly love eating hotpot! Because it’s warm! But my family was too poor to afford it. I never even considered this kind of restaurant! My mom knew I loved it, so every winter she would make it for me herself! Even though it was all vegetarian, I still thought it was a delicacy! It was the same for Yueyue; we were so similar in so many ways. Every time my mom made hotpot, Yueyue would definitely come over to eat with us!" Thinking about the scenes of her, her mother, and Yueyue eating hotpot together, Ye Anxin suddenly became excited.

Once she opened up, she couldn’t stop, talking endlessly to Mu Beiting about her past.

Even though she had an unsatisfactory father, she had a mother who loved her dearly and a true friend in Ling Yueyue!

She felt she was happy and content at least.

Mu Beiting didn’t say a word either, sitting across from her, quietly watching as she spoke.

Until the private room door was knocked, did Ye Anxin snap out of it, embarrassedly sticking out her tongue, "Sir, am I talking too much?"

Mu Beiting responded truthfully, "No, I like hearing you talk!"

"Gah...!" Ye Anxin looked at Mu Beiting, blinking her watery big eyes.

At that moment, the private room door opened, and the waiter brought in the dishes Ye Anxin had ordered along with the hotpot.

After arranging the dishes, turning on the switch for them, and explaining a series of operations to Ye Anxin, the waiter then left.

Watching the hotpot gradually start boiling, Ye Anxin excitedly tossed the ingredients in.

Strangely enough, although she usually preferred mild foods, when it came to hotpot, she loved it spicy, extremely spicy!

So, she mostly put her favorite ingredients into the spicy side, while putting Mu Beiting’s favorite ingredients into the mild side. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Seeing her mouth swollen from the heat, Mu Beiting couldn’t help but frown, "Eat less spicy food, your body hasn’t fully recovered yet!"

"Hmm! I know, I’ll pay attention!" Ye Anxin nodded vigorously. She said that but still kept grabbing from the spicy side.

Mu Beiting didn’t pick up his chopsticks, just watched Ye Anxin eat.

Seeing him not eating, Ye Anxin proactively picked up some food for him and urged, "Sir, you should eat too! Otherwise, the food will be overcooked!"

Hearing this, Mu Beiting finally picked up his chopsticks and started eating slowly.

"Sir, when eating hotpot, you should eat big mouthfuls, ravenously, that’s what makes it fun! Look, like me!" Worried that Mu Beiting might not know, Ye Anxin deliberately opened her mouth wide, stuffing it full to show him.

Watching her, Mu Beiting’s eyes flickered subtly, but he continued to eat slowly without saying a word.

While eating, Ye Anxin didn’t forget to ask, "Sir, have you ever had hotpot before?"

Mu Beiting replied without thinking, "No!"

Ye Anxin asked curiously, "Do you like hotpot?"

"It’s okay!" Mu Beiting’s words were very tactful.

It meant he could eat it or not, without really answering whether he liked it or not.

Ye Anxin tilted her head, thought for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "Since you’ve never had it, how did you know to bring me here?"

Hearing this, Mu Beiting’s handsome face turned slightly red, and he said solemnly, "When eating, don’t talk!"

"...?" Ye Anxin looked at him, blinking, seeing he didn’t want to answer, she didn’t ask further, and continued eating.

This time, Ye Anxin ate comfortably, almost finishing all the dishes she ordered, which was also the most she had eaten since losing the child.

In contrast, Mu Beiting only had a little of each dish, and there didn’t even seem to be any trace of oil at the corner of his mouth.

Looking at Mu Beiting, Ye Anxin’s mind was suddenly clear, but she didn’t expose it.

Ye Anxin rubbed her full belly, satisfied, "Sir, I’m so full, I feel like the food’s reached my throat!"

Mu Beiting followed her hand, glanced at her obviously more prominent belly, "Then let’s settle the bill!"

"Hmm!" Ye Anxin nodded, then pressed the service button on the table.

In no time, the waiter came in with the bill!

After settling the bill, as they walked out, Ye Anxin took Mu Beiting’s arm and said with a smile, "Sir, I’m stuffed. How about we take a walk? Let’s wait until the food in my stomach digests a bit before heading back!"

"Okay!" Mu Beiting agreed, and walked out of the hotpot restaurant hand in hand with Ye Anxin.

It was already night, and the snow was still falling, though much lighter than during the day.

The two walked slowly on the snow, Ye Anxin holding Mu Beiting’s arm, resting her head on his shoulder, smiling, "Sir, do you know? My biggest wish in this life is to stroll in the snow with the man I love! Watching the snow and walking hand in hand!"

Mu Beiting tightly pressed his thin lips, not saying a word!

Although Mu Beiting didn’t speak, Ye Anxin knew he was listening intently, so she continued, "Now my wish has finally come true! I’m really touched, touched by all that you’ve done for me! I know, given your personality, doing this much is already very good! Truly...! I’m very grateful to heaven for giving me such a wonderful gentleman! So, I will use everything I have to repay the kindness you’ve shown me!"

As she said this, her eyes unknowingly reddened again.

Thinking about the bits and pieces of her time with the gentleman, she truly felt grateful that she met him.

Especially the changes in the gentleman during this time!

Since the child was gone, the gentleman had changed a lot! And only she could sense this change.

She could clearly feel that he talked more than before, and expressed his care for her openly instead of keeping it inside.

Just like earlier, with her health not yet recovered, he reminded her to eat less spicy food!

If it were before, the gentleman would have definitely ordered her not to eat it.

Though the changes were subtle, she could still clearly feel them.

So, she was deeply moved, really touched!
