CHAPTER 84: CHAPTER 84: AGGRIEVED

Inside the villa, ever since returning from dinner, Ye Anxin has been sitting anxiously in the living room waiting for Mu Beiting to come back.

But, she waited and waited until eleven o’clock before she heard the sound of the door opening.

Ye Anxin quickly stood up from the sofa and went to greet him, "Uncle, you’re back!" Saying this, she reached out to take Mu Beiting’s briefcase.

Mu Beiting didn’t even glance at her; he directly avoided her touch, changed into his slippers, and walked past her toward the stairs.

Ye Anxin hurriedly followed, cautiously asking, "Uncle, are you angry with me?"

Mu Beiting’s thin lips were pressed into a tight line; he didn’t answer.

Ye Anxin followed behind, apologizing continuously, "Uncle, I’m sorry, I was wrong! But things aren’t like you think they are! There’s a misunderstanding here!"

Mu Beiting ignored her and walked silently toward the study.

"Uncle!" Ye Anxin was afraid he would lock her out again once inside, so she quickly took three steps forward, spreading her arms to block the study doorway.

Mu Beiting remained silent and looked at her coldly, his eyes devoid of any warmth!

Being looked at like that made Ye Anxin feel chills deep down. From their wedding to now, Mu Beiting had only looked at her this way when they first met and on the day they registered their marriage! After that, although he was never warm to her, he never looked at her like this again!

Seeing his eyes made Ye Anxin feel as if they’d returned to the way they were when they first met!

He was guarded and resistant toward her again!

This was Ye Anxin’s only feeling at the moment.

Their relationship had finally begun to improve, and Ye Anxin didn’t want to return to how it was before, so she hurriedly explained anxiously, "Uncle, can you say something? Even a simple ’mm’ would be fine! I know I was wrong today, I shouldn’t have gone to dinner with Mr. Huo instead of taking care of you at the hospital! But I was also worried about Tiantian! He’s so young and motherless, he came crying to me, asking me to accompany him for dinner! Facing such a young child, I really couldn’t bear to refuse!"

Mu Beiting’s eyes grew even colder, and he directly pushed Ye Anxin out of the way at the door, opened the door to walk inside, leaving Ye Anxin locked outside.

Ye Anxin was undeterred, desperately pounding on the door, saying very aggrievedly, "Uncle, don’t be like this, alright! It was really an accident today! After school, I was preparing to come home to make you soup and visit you! But then Tiantian suddenly came crying and fussing, asking me to have dinner with him. I originally refused, but seeing him cry so pathetically, and as a child without a mother, my heart softened and I agreed! I didn’t expect it would just happen to be that I would run into my father at the restaurant! That’s why my father misunderstood! I really didn’t do it on purpose, I didn’t know things would turn out like this, if I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have agreed to go with Tiantian today! Uncle, please don’t be angry, forgive me this once, okay!"

Inside, there was still only silence, Mu Beiting remained silent, with no reaction from anyone.

Ye Anxin leaned against the door, continuing to speak, "Uncle, Uncle, open the door, let me in! I really didn’t do it on purpose, I was wrong, I’m sorry, please forgive me, okay! If you’re really angry, you can hit me or scold me, just please don’t ignore me! You ignoring me makes me really sad!"

Unfortunately, the answer she received was still silence!

Standing outside the door, Ye Anxin suddenly felt extremely wronged! Thinking about what happened in the private room earlier, and remembering Mu Beiting’s cold attitude now, she felt so wronged! Unknowingly her eyes started to redden!
