“Ahh!” A woman let out a shrill exclaim loudly, but it was not Han Muzi; instead, it was Leng Yueyue, who was holding Yan’s arm.
Everyone suddenly looked over to their direction. Upon seeing this, Han Muzi’s expression changed slightly, and she quickly turned to Ye Moxuan and whispered, “Let me down! What are you doing?”
Ye Moxuan frowned. “Don’t your bared feet feel cold? I’ll take you out in my arms.”
Han Muzi replied, “You don’t need to carry me. I can walk on my own. Just let me down!”
However, Ye Moxuan did not give her a chance to refute at all. He simply walked out holding her, causing the attention on stage to be diverted here. Han Muzi struggled for a while before eventually giving up and plunging into Ye Moxuan’s arms. She then reached out and pulled his collar to cover her face.
There were many reporters here, so it would be troublesome if they were photographed.
However, Ye Moxuan was not afraid. As long as she hid her face well, everyone would only know that Ye Moxuan hugged a woman in his arms. None of them would know that the woman was Han Muzi.
Apart from that, her actions did not make Ye Moxuan feel annoyed. On the contrary, he was happy to see that she relied on him and took the initiative to approach him. His thin lips were slightly curved as he strode forward.
On the other hand, Leng Yueyue and Yan were stunned for a good five seconds before they returned to their senses and quickly got up to follow him outside.
Some unknown reporters yelled out loud, “It’s Ye Moxuan, the business tycoon! My God, it’s Ye Moxuan of the Ye family in North City!”
“Who is he holding? Quick, take a picture!”
The spotlight quickly shone on the two of them. Leng Yueyue and Yan, who were behind Ye Moxuan, subconsciously raised their hands to block their faces, but they quickly realized that the ones being photographed were Ye Moxuan and Han Muzi, not them.
After realizing that, they put their hands down again.
Even though Han Muzi was buried in Ye Moxuan’s arms, she could feel many cameras shooting frantically at them. Her body was tensed up, and she felt speechless at such an occurrence while thinking that the media were too gossipy.
Is the charm of Ye Moxuan actually greater than those celebrities and jewelry? Why didn’t they take pictures of them but come to photograph Ye Moxuan instead?
“Tsk.”
As she was thinking about it, a rumble came from Ye Moxuan’s chest, and then his voice rang above her head immediately.
“Don’t be afraid. I will protect you.”
Han Muzi was completely bewildered upon hearing this.
Hah!
If you hadn’t held me in your arms, nothing would have happened at all!
However, there was nothing else she could say—she could only wait for them to go out.
Ye Moxuan seemed to be deliberately torturing her by walking at an excruciatingly slow pace. After a long time, he was still trapped by the reporters.
“What are you doing? Hurry up.” Han Muzi felt that she was almost out of breath in his arms. In addition, she was wearing a skirt today, so it was difficult for her to adjust her posture. She was worried about her wardrobe malfunction.
Upon realizing that the woman in his arms was getting annoyed, Ye Moxuan looked at the reporters in front of him with a strong indifference as he glared at the group of people coldly.
“Get lost.”
After hearing Ye Moxuan’s command, all of them stopped immediately and exchanged glances before taking a few steps back subconsciously.
He didn’t give the reporters any respect, and he didn’t care how ruthless the reporters would say he was; to him, their comments were irrelevant.
However, only someone with a dying wish would have the guts to write any negative articles about Ye Moxuan.
Not only was the man ruthless, he was also not someone who could be provoked, unless they didn’t want to stay in North City anymore.
Hence, everyone got away from him obediently, and no one dared to catch up to him.
Then, Leng Yueyue and Yan followed behind them like two shadows.
After arriving in the corridor, Han Muzi still did not dare lift her head from Ye Moxuan’s chest, though she was almost out of breath from hiding in his suit for such a long time. Just then, Ye Moxuan’s slightly-amused voice came from above her.
“Nobody’s around now. You can come out and take a breather.”
Han Muzi snorted and ignored him.
She didn’t believe a word from this man. What if she was photographed by reporters as soon as she showed her face?
After a while, Han Muzi heard that there was really no other commotion around her, so she slowly poked her head out and looked around. Then, she was relieved when she found that there really was no one else.
“Okay, no one is there. You can put me down now,” Han Muzi said while looking at Ye Moxuan.
However, Ye Moxuan stared at her intently. “When have I said that I’m going to put you down?”
Han Muzi was perplexed when she heard that.
“Your heels are broken. Let me take you to buy a pair of new ones.”
Han Muzi paused for a moment before uttering tentatively, “I don’t think so. I can buy it myself.”
After taking a few steps, he arrived at the parking lot and walked to his car with Han Muzi still in his arms. Then, he looked back at Leng Yueyue and Yan, who had been following him all the way. After all, Han Muzi was still in his arms, so they couldn’t just leave her like this. At this moment, when Ye Moxuan looked at them, they felt a chill running down their backs.
“You two…” Ye Moxuan narrowed his eyes and moved his thin lips. “Go back first.”
“But…” Yan glanced at Han Muzi hesitantly. Seeing her struggling in Ye Moxuan’s arms, she had to bite the bullet and say, “Mr. Ye, you should put Muzi down. When she’s in the car, she won’t need any shoes anymore. We can bring her home directly.”
“Oh?” Ye Moxuan raised his eyebrows. His indifference had suddenly lowered the surrounding temperature by a lot.
Yan cowered a little, but after seeing Han Muzi’s look, she could only continue, “I’m sure Muzi doesn’t want to leave with you. Besides, it’s late now, so it’s quite inconvenient for a man and a woman to be alone. There are many reporters today—if this got photographed later, we would be in trouble.”
Han Muzi looked at Ye Moxuan and spoke calmly, “Didn’t you hear her? Put me down quickly.”
Ye Moxuan stared at her face thoughtfully for a long time. When he was about to speak, he heard Han Muzi say, “If you don’t let me go, I will block your WeChat account.”
Ye Moxuan felt speechless upon hearing that.
“Do you want to let me go or not?” It was finally Han Muzi’s turn to threaten him now.
They had no idea what had gotten into Ye Moxuan, who slowly put her down while she was watching at him, as if he was really afraid that she would block his WeChat account.
Han Muzi couldn’t help shivering when the soles of her feet landed on the cold floor.
It’s really quite cold.
“Don’t block me!” he ordered with a cold expression.
At this moment, Ye Moxuan looked like a gangster who was throwing tantrums. Han Muzi didn’t bother to pay any further attention to him and turned around to leave.
However, her wrist was pulled by him. Han Muzi couldn’t move forward, so she frowned when she turned around. “Let me go!”
“Did you hear what I said?” Ye Moxuan frowned while staring at her seriously.
He looked like he would not let her leave if she didn’t agree. Feeling that this kept happening, Han Muzi’s patience had finally worn off.
“Got it. I promise, and I swear I won’t block you. Happy? Can I go now?”
Ye Moxuan finally let go. “Go ahead. Be careful when driving.”
These words almost made Han Muzi think that the person in front of her had completely changed into a new person. Someone as indifferent as him could actually say such sweet things?
