Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Obsessed with Money

At this moment, Father Ye suddenly came over. He pulled Mother Ye away from Ye Anxin and stood in front of her and said with a smile, “Anxin, don’t listen to your mother. Listen to Dad. Let Dad tell you, if that man really has a very close relationship with you or if he likes you, then just go with him. In this life, no person should have an issue with money. Even if he won’t make your relationship official, it’s fine as long as he gives you money. With money, what can’t we do? In the future, we can find another good man to marry you anyway. If you don’t talk about it, I won’t talk about it. Your mother also won’t talk about it, so nobody else will ever know about it.”

As soon as Father Ye had made his ridiculous comments, Mother Ye became anxious and said hurriedly, “Nonsense. Anxin, you mustn’t listen to your dad. He is obsessed with money, and he only has money on his mind all day long. You must not betray your morals and body for the sake of money.”

After listening to the two of them, Ye Anxin suddenly felt amused. “Mom, your imagination is running wild. I won’t! I don’t want to be a homewrecker or a mistress. I will only become an official wife. Don’t worry, I won’t bring shame upon you.”

With Ye Anxin’s assurances, Mother Ye was slightly relieved. “Since you said that I won’t worry anymore. Mom was afraid that you’d do something you’ll regret forever.”

Ye Anxin promised her again, “I will keep myself chaste.”

“Uh, huh!” Mother Ye nodded in satisfaction.

Listening to their conversation, Father Ye scoffed, then muttered in a low voice, “Impoverished couples have nothing but sadness. Without money, one can’t even survive, so what’s the point of chastity then?”

Too lazy to pay attention to him, Mother Ye simply glared at him. Ye Anxin pretended she didn’t hear him and rolled up her sleeves to start cleaning with Mother Ye.

Because this house had been vacant for a long time, it was full of dust inside and out. Although the house was small, the cleaning process was really exhausting for Ye Anxin.

Finally, the house looked like a home after their thorough cleaning.

There were no luxurious appliances and only some basic furniture. There was a bed, a closet, a sofa, a coffee table, and an old-fashioned TV.

By the time the house had been completely cleaned up, the sky was already dark.

Ye Anxin and Mother Ye were extremely tired and didn’t want to move. They didn’t want to cook, so they ordered three servings of takeout to be delivered.

After their stomachs were full, Ye Anxin told Father Ye and Mother Ye to go to bed early, then she grabbed her bag and left to go home.

After she went downstairs, because it was late and it was dark outside, Ye Anxin didn’t see the car parked at the corner. Preparing to hail a taxi home, she walked directly toward the main road.

She had just walked a few steps before the car honked at her.

Ye Anxin paused, then stopped and looked for the source of the honk.

When she saw Mu Beiting’s car parked not far away, Ye Anxin froze for a minute. She only snapped back to reality when the car honked at her again.

Ye Anxin approached the car, and the car window was lowered. Mu Beiting’s voice came from inside, “Get in the car!”

“Oh…!” Ye Anxin answered airily, then opened the door of the back seat and got into the car. She sat down beside Mu Beiting.

Ye Anxin had gotten into the car, but Mu Beiting didn’t tell the driver to start driving even after a long while.

“Mister, why are you here? How did you know that I was here?” Ye Anxin looked at Mu Beiting in bewilderment. She wouldn’t narcissistically think that Mu Beiting had made a special trip to inquire about her whereabouts. However, it seemed a bit too coincidental for them to have encountered each other here by accident. After all, this was a suburban area, and the people living here were the lower working class. Mu Beiting, the president of a big corporation, definitely wouldn’t come here, right?
