CHAPTER 128: CHAPTER 128: SON-IN-LAW?

She thought ————

So, all this time it was her misunderstanding him!

Mu Beiting’s thin lips were tightly pressed, silent.

Yan Qinghan played with his slender fingernails, teasing, "Of course, that’s why, little sister-in-law, you should thank me! If I hadn’t insisted on bringing him over, this layer of window paper between you two would never have been broken! Little sister-in-law, tell me, how are you going to thank me?"

Ye Anxin lowered her head in shame, her teeth biting her lower lip, "I’m sorry, I...!"

Having taken in all of their conversation and expressions, the usually calm and composed Mother Ye suddenly raised her voice in disbelief, "Married...Anxin, you’re married?"

Ye Anxin closed her eyes in shock, and after a while, opened them again, nodding, "Dad, Mom, I am indeed married! He, he is my husband, your son-in-law!"

"What? You little girl, what did you just say? You’re married? When did this happen? Why didn’t you ask me? You little girl, see if I won’t beat you!" Father Ye jumped up in anger and rushed over, wanting to hit Ye Anxin.

Compared to Father Ye’s agitation, Mother Ye, although shocked and angry, retained her composure and hurriedly pulled Father Ye back, anxiously asking, "Anxin, who is he? Why have you never mentioned him? We haven’t seen him before either? Speak quickly, or your dad really will kill you!"

"What’s wrong with Mr. Huo? He’s rich, wealthy, and handsome! Such a good man and you don’t like him, instead, you like a pretty boy! Are you trying to drive me to death deliberately?" Father Ye said, struggling mightily!

If it weren’t for Mother Ye, he really would have rushed over by now to teach this ungrateful, unaccomplished daughter a harsh lesson!

They missed out on the earlier Mu Rufeng, and now, after finally finding someone better than Mu Rufeng, she goes and marries herself off carelessly without even saying a word! He didn’t even know the family background of the other party, nor did he get the deserved betrothal gifts. It really made him furious!

At this moment, Ling Yueyue, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, "Are you Mu Beiting?"

"Mu Beiting? Mu Beiting? Who is Mu Beiting?" Father Ye repeatedly chewed over the name, searching through his mind!

For some reason, the name kept feeling so familiar to him?

Yet, he still couldn’t recall where he had heard it!

Just as Father Ye was racking his brains for an answer, Ling Yueyue spoke again, "Are you Mu Beiting, the president of Mu Group? I saw you last time at Mengjie KTV!"

Ling Yueyue looked at Mu Beiting. If Mu Beiting hadn’t been outstanding enough to leave a deep impression, she really wouldn’t have remembered someone she had only seen once without even speaking.

That night at Mengjie KTV, she initially didn’t know he was Mu Beiting, but she did know Yan Qinghan and several other big shots in the private room at that time!

So, as long as she used her brain to carefully guess, she could figure out Mu Beiting’s identity.

Besides, someone with such a strong presence and outstanding appearance could only be Mu Beiting; she really couldn’t think of anyone else.

Why is it that even though Mu Beiting is so famous, few people know him? Mainly because, although Mu Beiting is notorious, he is also famously low-key, never appearing in reports, news, or interviews, refusing any exposure! And the Mu Group is well-off enough that no one dares to make his photos public without his consent! So, to date, apart from Mu’s employees, Mu Beiting is like a mystery to the outside world! No wonder no one present recognized him.

"You’re Mu Beiting of the Mu Group? Mu Rufeng’s uncle?" Hearing Ling Yueyue mention the Mu Group, Father Ye finally came to a sudden realization.

Someone like him, who only indulges in eating, drinking, having fun, and gambling daily, wouldn’t follow any news, so not knowing Mu Beiting is normal!

But he had heard Mu Rufeng complain before in front of them about Mu Beiting, saying he was overbearing, rude, selfish, and arrogant.

That’s why he thought the name Mu Beiting sounded so familiar!

So—so—

Ling Yueyue excitedly patted Ye Anxin on the shoulder, "Ye Anxin, well done, actually getting married to Mu Rufeng’s uncle! From now on, that kid will have to call you auntie whenever he sees you, just thinking about it feels great!"

"Yueyue...!" Ye Anxin rolled her eyes at Ling Yueyue; such words would make everyone present think she was scheming.

Even though her initial intention to marry Mu Beiting was because of this! But it was also a rash act of impulse, forced to the limit by Xie Yunlu.

Now that she calmed down, she thought her behavior was really childish.

After a while, Father Ye finally reacted, staring blankly at Mu Beiting, incredulously asking, "You, you really are my son-in-law?"

Mu Beiting pressed his lips without speaking, not answering.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

To Ye Anxin, who had been married to Mu Beiting for a long time, she understood what Mu Beiting’s behavior meant.

But Father Ye was completely clueless!

From his perspective, Mu Beiting seemed totally contemptuous of him! Looking down on him, dismissing him, not even dignifying him with a word.

Compared to Huo Junmo’s enthusiastic attitude, his heart clearly favored Huo Junmo.

Although Huo Tian Group isn’t as wealthy as the Mu Group, more money that doesn’t land in his pockets is pointless.

It’s evident that if Huo Junmo were his son-in-law, he could at least have some say in front of Huo Junmo.

If it were Mu Beiting, let alone having a say, it’s likely he wouldn’t even be able to get a ten-million-dollar betrothal gift!

Suddenly, Yan Qinghan stood up and directly sat down beside the dining table in the dining room, "Ah, I’m starving, haven’t eaten yet! Let’s eat first! Little sister-in-law rarely makes a table full of delicious dishes, don’t let them go to waste!"

"Right, right, let’s eat first, eat first!" Ye Anxin quickly reacted, hurrying to pull Mu Beiting into the kitchen, signaling to Mother Ye with her eyes frantically.

Understanding the hint, Mother Ye hurriedly smiled and invited Huo Junmo and Ling Yueyue back to sit down.

"Mr. Yan, uncle, you sit for a while, I’ll get you some tableware!" After seating Mu Beiting properly, Ye Anxin quickly went into the kitchen, bringing disposable cutlery sets for Yan Qinghan and Mu Beiting respectively.

Knowing Mu Beiting’s cleanliness obsession, Ye Anxin specially washed the disposable cutlery she had prepared for him under the tap with detergent several times before taking them out.

"Then I won’t be polite!" Yan Qinghan grinned, taking the cutlery and starting to eat large mouthfuls.

Though he was eating somewhat urgently, obviously starving! Yet his dining manners remained elegant, clearly reflecting someone who had received a higher education.
