CHAPTER 78: CHAPTER 78: A TWIST OF FATE

"Get out...!" Mu Beiting continued to repeat that one word.

Seeing Mu Beiting’s firm stance, Yan Qinghan still wore his cheeky grin, "Hey, it’s not like I don’t want to help you take their lives. Even though you’re loaded, we’re talking about two lives here. Do you know how troublesome it would be for me to clean up if we took them out? All this over two slaps? Besides, I’ve already given them a good beating, so much so they can’t even recognize their own parents. That’s enough! Two slaps for a beating, we didn’t lose out in this deal."

Mu Beiting didn’t answer and didn’t try to chase him away anymore, instead treating him like a transparent person and continuing to work with his head down.

Seeing that he still wasn’t paying attention to him, Yan Qinghan raised his eyebrows, pulled out his phone, and dialed Ye Anxin’s number, deliberately putting it on speaker.

After a few rings, the call was quickly answered, and Ye Anxin’s soft and warm voice came through, "Hello!"

Hearing Ye Anxin’s voice, Mu Beiting’s movements paused, and he involuntarily perked up his ears to eavesdrop.

Noticing his reaction, Yan Qinghan smirked mischievously and said, "Hey sister-in-law, it’s Yan Qinghan!"

Ye Anxin’s sweet voice came through again, "Yeah, I know! Is there something you need from me? Or is it Uncle looking for me? Does he have something going on?"

Yan Qinghan followed her words and asked back, "Do you really wish your uncle has something going on?"

From the other end, Ye Anxin almost instantly denied it, "Of course not, how could I wish for Uncle to have something happen!"

After hearing her words, the stiff lines of Mu Beiting’s face gradually softened.

Yan Qinghan threw him a triumphant look and intentionally said, "Sister-in-law, I believe your uncle will be very happy to hear what you said!"

Immediately, Ye Anxin’s voice on the other end became a bit shy and awkward!

Seeing Ye Anxin not speaking anymore, Yan Qinghan returned to the previous topic, "Sister-in-law, you still haven’t promised to cook for us yet!"

Ye Anxin hesitated for a moment, a bit troubled, "Not today, I have something to do outside! Tomorrow, I have to go to the hospital to see Uncle! How about after Uncle is discharged, I invite you over to my place for a meal! I’ll cook myself. I’m out today and can’t come back!"

"Your uncle discharged?" Yan Qinghan looked at Mu Beiting puzzledly! Upon receiving a warning glance from Mu Beiting, he immediately understood! Quickly changing the subject, he decisively said, "It’s a deal then! Once your uncle is discharged, you have to personally make a good meal to reward me!"

Ye Anxin agreed without hesitation, "Sure!"

Yan Qinghan grinned and said, "Then it’s settled, I won’t bother you anymore, sister-in-law, bye-bye!"

"Bye-bye!" Only then did Ye Anxin hang up the phone.

Yan Qinghan put the phone back in his pocket and asked playfully, "Hey, does sister-in-law not know about your discharge?"

Mu Beiting’s thin lips pressed tightly together, neither admitting nor denying.

Yan Qinghan rested his chin on one hand, absentmindedly tapping his chin with his index finger, his eyes glinting cunningly as he said with deeper meaning, "Let me guess, you suddenly getting discharged without telling sister-in-law, isn’t it to surprise her?"

Mu Beiting’s eyes darkened, remaining silent.

Seeing his appearance, Yan Qinghan knew he had guessed correctly! He was immediately overjoyed and continued, "So you got discharged, yet sister-in-law has things to do today and isn’t coming home to eat with you! So, you were in a bad mood and lashed out at me earlier?"

Mu Beiting impatiently squeezed out one word from his thin lips, "Get out!"
