Chapter 22: Turns Out, He Had Been Paying Attention to Her for the Entire Time

Ling Yueyue kept stroking her beating heart with her hands, and she said with lingering fear, “My God, I have lived for 20 years, but that was the first time I have ever seen so many big shots at once. It scared me out of my wits!”

“So you know who they are? From how you behaved just now, I thought you didn’t know who they were.” Ye Anxin looked at her with a funny expression. Thinking of the way she had been defending her just now, she felt amused.

Ling Yueyue sighed heavily, and pounding her chest, she said with pride, “How could I not know such famous people? I was just afraid that you were being harassed. You know, you have a mild temper, while I’m a tomboy. If I don’t protect you, who will protect you?”

Ye Anxin felt warm inside. Smiling, she looked at her friend with a mirthful expression. “How did you know that I was there?”

“I thought you went to the bathroom, but after you didn’t come back for so long, I went out to look for you. Then I asked the attendant,” Ling Yueyue explained. As soon as she’d finished speaking, Ye Anxin’s phone rang.

Ye Anxin took out her phone and saw that an unfamiliar phone number had sent her a text message: Wait for me in the parking lot!

Upon seeing those words, Ye Anxin didn’t feel the need to wonder about who had sent it anymore. This message must have been sent by Mu Beiting.

But what was unexpected was that Mu Beiting actually had her phone number. Didn’t he always ignore her? She thought he didn’t care at all about her.

Ye Anxin put away her phone and said to Ling Yueyue, “Yueyue, I have to go now because something’s come up. You can help me by saying goodbye to Xie Yunlu for me.”

Ling Yueyue shook her head. “I don’t want to stay here anymore either. It’s boring here. If you have something to do, you can leave first. I’ll tell them, and then I’ll leave as well.”

“All right! See you at school tomorrow.” Ye Anxin smiled sweetly, waved to Ling Yueyue, and left.

After she and Ling Yueyue separated, Ye Anxin went directly to the underground parking lot.

She looked around in the parking lot and finally found Mu Beiting’s car.

She didn’t have to wait for long before she saw Pete and Mu Beiting walking toward her.

“Madame!” Pete greeted her respectfully and then opened the back door of the car for Mu Beiting and Ye Anxin.

“Get in the car!” Mu Beiting didn’t move. He just coldly spat out these words to Ye Anxin.

Ye Anxin nodded and stepped into the car first. Mu Beiting got in the car immediately behind her and sat down.

When the car started, Ye Anxin sat beside Mu Beiting anxiously. Trying to explain something, her mouth moved, but unfortunately, before she had time to say anything, she saw Mu Beiting suddenly place a bag on her lap. “Wipe them clean.”

“What?” Ye Anxin froze and stared at him in bewilderment.

Mu Beiting patiently repeated, “Wipe your hands clean!”

Ye Anxin spread out her hands and looked at them. “My hands are very clean. When I came out of the bathroom just moments ago, I washed my hands with hand sanitizer, so they aren’t dirty.”

Mu Beiting glanced at her coldly but was too lazy to explain to her any further. He pulled out a wet wipe, placed Ye Anxin’s hands in front of him, and carefully and cautiously wiped her hands and wrists clean.

Looking at the areas Mu Beiting was wiping, Ye Anxin suddenly realized his meaning.

Those areas were where Gu Xingchen and Huo Yunmo had touched her just a little while before.

Turns out, he meant that since she had been touched by other men, she was dirty.

He was really a domineering man who also suffered from OCD.

She’d thought that he didn’t take her seriously. Turns out, he had been paying attention to her the entire time.
