Mu Beiting used his free hand to stroke Ye Anxin’s hair gently, saying softly, "Don’t worry about how I know! You don’t need to meddle in this; I will handle it!"

Ye Anxin urged earnestly, "How will you handle it? Mr. Yan just explained the intricacies of the situation to me! If you two fall out, it will cause a stock market upheaval, and the ones who get hurt will be the investors! Since what happened is already in the past, let’s just let it go! There’s no need to hold grudges over something that happened six years ago! Moreover, Li Lin and Su Yuexin have already been punished accordingly, and Mr. Gu hasn’t done anything to wrong you afterward! So, let it go! Let’s not let innocent people be hurt! Otherwise, I will feel guilty!"

Mu Beiting comforted, "All of this is Gu Xingchen’s fault; you have no reason to feel guilty!"

"But the entire situation arose because of me! Moreover, at that time, Mr. Gu didn’t even know I was your wife! So, he didn’t really betray the brotherly bond with you!" Ye Anxin had no choice but to lie in order to prevent the situation from deteriorating.

Even though Gu Xingchen knew she was his wife and still sent her to another man’s bed, this matter absolutely could not be revealed to him; otherwise, it would only worsen their relationship!

Upon hearing this, Mu Beiting didn’t speak, his eyes flickering slightly! 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Ye Anxin sighed and continued to persuade patiently, "Listen to me, uncle, stop fighting with Gu Xingchen! Come on, just listen to me this once! I may not know as much about the business world as you do! But there’s one thing I do know: the stock market really affects a lot of people! I’ve seen on TV how people lose everything because of stock investments and then jump off buildings with their families! I don’t want such a tragedy to happen because of me! Uncle, do you want me to live my whole life in guilt and with a troubled conscience?"

"Okay!" Mu Beiting responded with a firm resolve to Ye Anxin’s words.

"Really? Did uncle really agree with me?" Seeing this, Ye Anxin’s eyes brightened! She thought she would have to spend a lot of effort to persuade him, but unexpectedly, she convinced him so easily!

Mu Beiting nodded, his eyes softening, "Really!"

"I knew you were the best, uncle!" With that, Ye Anxin couldn’t help but hug Mu Beiting tightly around the neck and give a strong kiss on his handsome face.

Just then, a knock came at the office door.

Ye Anxin quickly let go of Mu Beiting, and his eyes darkened with displeasure as he said two words, "Come in!"

With Mu Beiting’s words, the office door was pushed open, and Pete walked in carrying two exquisitely packaged plastic bags, placing them on the coffee table in front of the sofa while arranging the dishes, saying, "President, Madam, the takeout has arrived. Please eat while it’s hot!"

Ye Anxin smiled and asked, "Brother Pete, aren’t you eating with us?"

"No need, I can eat in my own office!" he said, standing up and preparing to leave when Mu Beiting’s voice sounded behind him, "Cancel all attacks on the Gu Group, and your project is void!"

Upon hearing this, Pete was slightly stunned and turned to look at Mu Beiting in disbelief.

Seeing this, Mu Beiting’s brow furrowed, his face darkening.

Knowing his boss was angry, Pete quickly nodded in agreement, "Okay! I’ll issue the order immediately to stop!" With that, he left with his head down, not looking back.

Even as the door of the president’s office closed, he still couldn’t understand how their ever-determined boss suddenly changed his mind!

When he initially learned that the boss wanted to deal with the Gu Group, he tried everything to persuade him, but the boss wouldn’t budge!

How did the boss’s thoughts change so drastically in such a short time?

He couldn’t figure it out!

Despite his confusion, Pete still went and followed Mu Beiting’s orders, making a phone call after returning to his office!

On the other side, in the president’s office, after Pete left, Ye Anxin happily hugged Mu Beiting again, saying blissfully, "Uncle, you’re so good! You just promised me and now you’re already having Brother Pete handle it!"

Mu Beiting pressed his lips into a tight line, slowly forming a charming arc, and said softly, "When have I ever gone back on a promise to you! You must be hungry too! Hurry up and eat, or it’ll get cold!"

"Okay!" Ye Anxin smiled sweetly and started eating happily.

Initially, she was worried about the matter with Mu Beiting and Gu Xingchen and had no appetite! But once it was resolved, her appetite returned immediately.

After eating, Ye Anxin continued to nest on the sofa reading a book, while Mu Beiting sat behind his desk working.

Around four-thirty, Mu Beiting tidied up all the documents on his desk, stood up, took his coat from the coat rack, and walked to Ye Anxin’s side.

Mu Beiting’s movements caught Ye Anxin’s attention! She glanced at the coat in his hands, then checked the time on her phone, puzzled, "Uncle, it’s only four-thirty. Are you done with your work?"

Mu Beiting nodded, speaking softly, "Yes! I have a dinner meeting later. I’ll take you home first; tonight you and Xiao Bai can eat at home by yourselves. I’ll come back after the dinner!"

Ye Anxin quickly replied, "Since you have a dinner meeting, why not have the driver take me home!"

"It’s fine, I have time!" he said, not giving Ye Anxin a chance to refuse, pulling her to her feet, putting on her coat, holding her hand, and walking to the door, before putting on his own coat and leaving the office with her!

Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin first picked up Xiao Bai from kindergarten, then took Ye Anxin and Xiao Bai home before driving away again.

Watching Mu Beiting’s departing figure, Xiao Bai glanced at Ye Anxin, pouted, and said meaningfully, "Mom, since you’ve been back, this is the first time Dad has attended a dinner meeting, right?"

Ye Anxin blinked, not understanding, and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Nothing, I’m just saying it casually!" With that, he turned and went inside, going upstairs to change his clothes.

Ye Anxin scratched her head in confusion, thought for a moment, and still couldn’t figure out what Xiao Bai meant, so she followed him upstairs!

After leaving the villa, Mu Beiting sat in his business car and said coldly to the driver in front, "To the Roman Hotel!"

"Yes!" The driver nodded, driving carefully on the dark, snowy road!

Because of the heavy snow and the dark sky, the driver drove slowly, and with the Roman Hotel located in the city center, by the time Mu Beiting arrived there, it was already more than two hours later!

After getting out of the business car, Mu Beiting directly took the VIP exclusive elevator to the restaurant on the third floor! Skillfully finding a private room, he lifted his foot and kicked open the door.
