CHAPTER 155: CHAPTER 154: ADMIRABLE COURAGE

"Alright, alright, I was wrong, I was wrong!" Ye Anxin hurriedly grabbed her arm and begged for mercy.

Ling Yueyue snorted coldly, "Hmph...! You little...!"

Ye Anxin eagerly asked, "Hey, quickly tell me, how did you suddenly decide to get married? When did you and Huo Junmo fall for each other? Do you love him?"

At the question, Ling Yueyue unconsciously touched her flat stomach and smiled, "Huo Junmo, one of the five young masters of Jin City, rich, handsome, powerful, mature and steady, responsible and career-minded! You tell me, which woman wouldn’t like such a perfect man! I, Ling Yueyue, never thought I could marry such a great figure in my lifetime! So, being able to marry him, I’m content!"

Hearing her words, Ye Anxin frowned slightly, "But, do you love him?"

Ling Yueyue retorted, "Did you love Mu Beiting when you got the marriage certificate with him?"

"...!" Ye Anxin was left speechless!

That’s right! When she got the marriage certificate with the uncle back then, it was completely impulsive. She didn’t think about love at all.

Now, isn’t she living quite well!

The uncle treats her well, and she loves the uncle, isn’t that enough!

Ye Anxin asked again, "Why would Huo Junmo marry you?"

Ling Yueyue countered, "Then why would Mu Beiting marry you?"

"...!" Ye Anxin blinked and protested discontentedly, "Hey, I’m the one asking you, okay! Don’t keep dodging my questions with that line!"

Ling Yueyue replied innocently, "It’s not that I want to dodge your questions, it’s because I don’t know why he would marry me either! A week ago, I ran to his office and asked him to marry me! He was stunned for a moment, but then he nodded and agreed! Since he agreed, I couldn’t possibly go and ask him why he agreed!"

"...!" Ye Anxin tilted her head, thought for a while, and suddenly said, "This scenario, why does it feel so familiar?"

"You dummy!" Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but reach out, poking her temple hard, "I learned this from you! Even you dared to ask Mu Beiting to marry you, how could I, a tough girl, be more cowardly than you!"

Ye Anxin couldn’t help but give her a thumbs up, "Yueyue, you’re really brave!"

Ling Yueyue laughed heartily, "Likewise! You’re not even afraid of that icy face Mu Beiting, what is there to be afraid of with Huo Junmo!"

Hearing her talk about Mu Beiting like that, Ye Anxin immediately protested, "The uncle is just not very expressive, a bit serious! How is he an icy face?"

Ling Yueyue rolled her eyes, "Alright, alright, I won’t talk about your uncle anymore. Look at you, if I keep talking about him, are you going to fight me?"

At this, Ye Anxin’s pretty face blushed slightly, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

At this moment, the class bell rang! The teacher walked into the classroom holding a lesson plan and a book.

Ye Anxin and Ling Yueyue automatically kept their mouths shut and stopped talking.

Ye Anxin opened her textbook and listened attentively to the teacher’s lecture.

Ling Yueyue appeared absent-minded, her right hand couldn’t help but rest on her still flat stomach.

Here, a life is brewing! This is her child.

That day, at Li Lin’s birthday party, she got drunk and woke up the next morning to find herself naked in bed with Huo Junmo, their clothes messily strewn on the floor.

She fled hastily while Huo Junmo was still asleep.

It was only one night, and she got unexpectedly pregnant! To prevent the child from being born into a single-parent family, she had to muster the courage and went to Huo Junmo, asking him to marry her.

She had prepared a series of explanations, afraid that Huo Junmo might refuse.

Unexpectedly, Huo Junmo easily nodded and agreed! The carefully prepared words had no use at all.

She didn’t tell him that the child inside her was his!

In fact, deep down, she had a small hope. She didn’t want him to marry her just because of the child.

She wanted him to marry her, Ling Yueyue, for who she was!

Therefore, until Huo Junmo completely falls in love with her, she would never say the child in her belly is his!

She wanted to give her child a complete and loving family.

Ling Yueyue is strong, wherever she falls, she will get back up there!

..........

Returning home after school in the afternoon, Mu Beiting had not come back yet!

In the past month, Mu Beiting had been very busy, leaving early and returning late, occasionally going on business trips, sometimes for a day, sometimes unable to return for two nights!

Knowing he’s busy with work, Ye Anxin didn’t bother him, eating dinner alone, and then hiding in Mu Beiting’s study room to read.

No one knows how long she read, and without realizing it, Ye Anxin fell asleep.

When Mu Beiting walked into the study, he happened to see Ye Anxin curled up asleep in the corner of the sofa.

Mu Beiting put the briefcase in his hand on the desk, bent down and carefully picked her up from the sofa, heading toward the bedroom.

Ye Anxin, who was a light sleeper, slowly opened her eyes and woke up as she felt Mu Beiting’s familiar breath.

"Uncle, you’re back?" Ye Anxin quietly lay in Mu Beiting’s arms, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

Mu Beiting nodded, "Mm!"

Ye Anxin asked with concern, "Uncle, are you hungry? Should I make something for you?"

Mu Beiting said as he laid her on the bed, "I already ate at the table just now!"

"Oh!" Ye Anxin responded lightly, "Then I’ll go fill the bathtub for you. You must be tired after working all day!" She said, getting up to go to the bathroom to run the bathwater for Mu Beiting.

Mu Beiting didn’t stop her, and after she went to the bathroom, he stood up and took off his suit jacket.

While the water was running, Ye Anxin went to the wardrobe to find some home clothes for Mu Beiting.

Just as Ye Anxin was about to close the wardrobe door with the home clothes in hand, Mu Beiting suddenly wrapped her slender waist from behind, resting his smooth chin at her neck.

The warm breath sprayed on her ear, causing a ticklish feeling in Ye Anxin’s heart.

Ye Anxin elbowed his chest and said coquettishly, "Uncle, what are you doing? Let go of me quickly, the bathtub is going to overflow with water soon!"

Mu Beiting’s magnetic, pleasant voice whispered in Ye Anxin’s ear, "Let’s bathe together!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Anxin’s cheeks instantly flushed bright red.

Imagining the two of them naked in the bathtub, a wave of heat passed through her blood.

"Let’s... let’s bathe separately!" Ye Anxin said softly, her head lowered, her voice so quiet it would be thought of as a hallucination if not heard carefully.

"I like bathing together!" With that, disregarding Ye Anxin’s objection, Mu Beiting directly scooped her up in his arms.

"Ah...!" Ye Anxin, caught off guard, quickly wrapped her arm around his neck.

"Uncle, no... Every time we bathe together, the water always gets so cold in the end!" Ye Anxin bashfully buried her small face into Mu Beiting’s chest!

Ever since they broke through that barrier, Mu Beiting had been like a beast released from a cage, seizing any opportunity to passionately indulge.

No matter the place, whether it was the bed, the sofa, the study, or the bathroom, they had left traces of their intimacy almost everywhere!
