All people spontaneously stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction of the car.
The aloof face of the man getting off the car gradually became clear to Ye s.h.i.+wei.
She looked towards the gate in a daze, with her tears dried by the wind.
Mu Tingchen … What … What was he doing here?
An affectedly sweet voice was immediately heard, throbbing Ye"s eardrums.
“Tingchen”
Li Haina walked a few steps up, intending to grab his arm. But against her will, Mu suddenly stepped forward at this moment and let Li pa.s.s.
Li"s face turned pale, but she still let it go temporarily. Refusing to give up, she strode towards him.
She was prepared to put up with whatever embarra.s.sment as long as she could have a closer relations.h.i.+p with Mu Tingchen.
“Tingchen, what are you doing here?”
Instead of responding to her, Mu stood in front of Ye and reached out to pull her up.
Then he fished a ring of keys out from his chest pocket.
“Is this yours? You must have left it at my house.”
Ye patted the dirt off her body, and took over the ring of keys. But with a look she immediately found it wasn"t hers at all.
Though in doubt, she didn"t speak it out.
Could he deliberately use this way to help her out?
But as soon as this idea came to her, she blamed her won silliness for thinking that monster in such a good way.
Anyway, Ye took the keys without saying anything.
Mu looked at the workers around and asked, “What"s going on here?”
“Oh, her father has embezzled a large sum of money from the company, so the bank now has to take the house away …”
When in face of Mu, Li Haina explained with total innocence and sympathy, behaving as if all this had nothing to do with her and the bank was to blame.
Mu"s dark eyes were now like a cold winter night, filled with calmness and mysteriousness.
“Well, if that"s the case” He looked at Ye and suddenly asked her, “Do you have nowhere else to go now?”
Ye nodded.
“Then come back with me.”
When he finished, he appended in saying, “I"ve promised your mom to take good care of you.”
It seemed to be said to others around, but it was more like an explanation to himself.
It meant he didn"t mean more than what he said.
Hearing this, Li"s heart tightened.
If letting Ye s.h.i.+wei this b.i.t.c.h live in Mu"s house, no one could be a.s.sured that she would not resort to any immoral means to seduce him even if there was a kins.h.i.+p between them!
No way! Li thought such thing must never be allowed to happen!
So, she said in a hurry, “Tingchen, Weiwei is a girl. It won"t be convenient for her to live in your house. Maybe, let her go to my house. Anyway, we grow up together. I have originally planned to let her live at my place.”
Ye was really disgusted by her feigned harmlessness.
She was in no mood for cooperation with her in pretending she was having a good relations.h.i.+p with Li. “How come you"re totally another person in front of men?” Ye said mercilessly, “Where has that arrogant and ruthless face gone? What, daring set people up but afraid to admit it?”
“You!”
Li clenched her fists and was about to lose her temper. But when she saw Mu out of the corner of her eyes, she had no choice but to swallow her anger back.
“What nonsense are you talking about? We are good sisters.”
Ye was speechless in face of such shameless person as Li Haina.
But after making a comparison, Ye would rather choose to go with Mu Tingchen that monster.
Although they were both hypocritical, despicable and cold-blooded …
But at least, Mu Tingchen was still useful to her at the moment.
Thinking of this, Ye walked up to Mu without any hesitation.
And then she opened her mouth calmly, “I"ll go with you.”
She said only four words, but under great determination.
