Chapter 2432 - 11: Afraid I Might Sell You?

Mu Huaen’s initially excited heart suddenly turned cold at these words.

So, she’s afraid of Madam Ye!

Ye Haoyang naturally noticed the girl beside him was downcast, but he didn’t think much of it, only feeling that the saying "a woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea" is accurate—they become unhappy for reasons unknown.

Ye Haoyang arrived on horseback and followed behind the carriage on the return journey.

"Miss, Young Master Ye Er is indeed a good person," Juan’er said happily, "I knew he wasn’t someone who only cares about looks."

"You misjudged him," Mu Huaen snorted coldly, "I heard from my mother that he loves beauty the most. Everything he wears or uses must look good, and he likes beautiful people. Even the maids who serve him must be good-looking."

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been so bothered by her appearance in the past, giving Mu Huarong an opportunity.

"Ah?" Juan’er covered her mouth in disbelief. "I really didn’t see that Young Master Ye Er is such a person."

"Are the two of you talking bad about me without shame as if I don’t exist?"

Ye Haoyang’s face was full of black lines. Couldn’t they talk about him more quietly?

"Oh..." Juan’er covered her mouth again, she had really forgotten.

Mu Huaen didn’t say much else, but she was thinking about how to tell Ye Haoyang not to take her back to the Mu Residence once they reached the Capital City.

She didn’t plan to return to the Mu Residence, but Ye Haoyang would definitely ask.

She was conflicted all the way into the city.

Seeing that there were only two streets left to the Mu Residence, Mu Huaen couldn’t hold back. "Wait!"

"What is it?"

"I, I’m not going to the Mu Residence."

Ye Haoyang didn’t know what came over him but he started to laugh, "So you want to go to our house instead?"

Mu Huaen quickly rolled her eyes at him, "I have my own place to stay. You don’t need to escort me further, Brother Ye Er. Thank you for today. Driver, turn around."

"Yes!"

"Hold on." Ye Haoyang felt something was off, "If you’re neither going to our house nor the Mu Residence, where are you going?"

The Mu Family only knows a few families, among which they are closest to the Ye Family and the Luo Family. They passed by the Luo Residence just now but didn’t enter, so where does she plan to go now?

"I don’t want to stay in the Mu Residence." Mu Huaen decided to be honest, "And I don’t want to go to your place either. I have my own destination."

"Why not return to the Mu Residence?" Ye Haoyang wondered, then continued, "Your injury still needs treatment, and your elder brother can help you once you’re home. Besides, how can it be reassuring for a young lady to live outside?"

"What’s there to worry about?" Mu Huaen said self-deprecatingly, "Brother Ye Er, with the way I look right now, I can scare a bunch of people to death. Do I still need to worry about someone trying to harm me?"

Ye Haoyang disliked her tone and reprimanded her, "It’s just a ruined face, what’s the big deal? Are your arms broken or your legs crippled? Is that why you’re so discouraged? You probably haven’t seen people worse off than you."

"I..."

Mu Huaen felt very wronged. What was this crazy person thinking, reprimanding her? Besides, this was about her face, how is that the same?

"Alright, since you don’t want to stay with the Mu Family, come with me."

"Where to?"

"I told you to come with me, so just follow me. Why ask so many questions?" Ye Haoyang gave her a glance, "Are you afraid I’ll sell you?"

"Pfft, even if you wanted to sell me, no one would buy." Her face looked so dreadful even a ghost would steer clear. Who would spend money to buy her?

"Shut up!"

This girl was truly unpleasant, her words always making him feel like hitting someone.

After all, Mu Huaen didn’t say anything more. She understood Brother Ye Er’s domineering nature and obediently had the driver follow him.
