CHAPTER 46: CHAPTER 46: SPYING

Pete was even more baffled, completely at a loss for what to do.

Finally, after another ten minutes, Yan Qinghan was halfway through his meal when the phone in his pocket started ringing.

At the instant the phone rang, Mu Beiting’s tightly closed eyes suddenly opened and looked towards him.

Yan Qinghan took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and under Mu Beiting’s expectant gaze, swiped the screen, then brought it to his ear and affectionately called out, "Hey sister-in-law!"

Upon hearing Yan Qinghan’s greeting, the gloom on Mu Beiting’s face vanished, and a flash of joy was apparent in his eyes.

It’s not clear what Ye Anxin said over the phone that day, but Yan Qinghan suddenly looked at Mu Beiting, stared at his face, and said with a smile, "Alright, hold on, I’m coming down right away!"

Hearing this, the sunny expression on Mu Beiting’s face darkened again.

Watching his colorful expressions, Yan Qinghan was utterly impressed with Ye Anxin.

Having known Mu Beiting for over a decade, he had never seen so many expressions on his face! He was like an ice block, always cold.

Just one call from Ye Anxin could make him see so many sides of Mu Beiting, it seemed his visit today was truly worthwhile!

"Sister-in-law asked me to go down, so I’m heading downstairs first!" Yan Qinghan finished speaking, not giving Mu Beiting a chance to respond, and directly opened the door to leave.

Even after the door to the hospital room closed, he could still feel that murderous gaze following him.

Once out of the room, Yan Qinghan took the elevator downstairs, and as soon as he exited the inpatient department, he spotted Ye Anxin standing in the garden.

Approaching Ye Anxin, Yan Qinghan curiously asked, "Sister-in-law, you’re already here, why didn’t you go up? Didn’t I give you your uncle’s room number?"

"I think... Uncle probably doesn’t want to see me! That’s why..." Saying this, Ye Anxin stuffed the insulated lunch box tightly held in her arms into Yan Qinghan’s hands and continued, "This is black fish soup I personally made, it can heal wounds, you have to take it up for me! Make sure to see him drink it yourself!"

Yan Qinghan blinked and asked with a laugh, "Who told you he doesn’t want to see you?"

Ye Anxin lowered her head and softly said, "He got hurt because of me, if it weren’t for me, he wouldn’t have gone out, and wouldn’t have walked into an ambush. He must be really mad at me! I don’t want him to get upset seeing me and affect his recovery!"

Yan Qinghan’s eyes shifted, and a mischievous smile appeared on his lips as he tentatively asked, "Are you really not going to see him?"

Ye Anxin’s body slightly stiffened, then she shook her head, "I’m not going up, please tell Uncle that I’ll bring him more soup tonight, and make sure he saves some room for it!" Saying this, she turned and ran off without looking back.

Watching Ye Anxin’s figure gradually disappear into the distance, Yan Qinghan smiled, turned around and entered the inpatient department.

Unbeknownst to Yan Qinghan, after returning to the hospital room, Ye Anxin had also sneaked upstairs, hiding outside the door, crouching down, trying to peek inside through the glass to check on Mu Beiting.

Once back in the room, Mu Beiting’s gaze immediately went past Yan Qinghan to look behind him! However, seeing no one there, his face instantly clouded over.

Yan Qinghan glanced at Mu Beiting, acting as if he hadn’t noticed the change in his expression, and said to himself, "Pete, help your boss up!"

Pete squatted down, stretched out his hand, intending to help Mu Beiting, but retracted it after being shot a cold glance from him.
