Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Hitting Means Affection, Scolding Means Love

Mu Yunxi dodged Chen Mengmeng, making her stagger.

Chen Mengmeng complained grievously, "Yunxi, won’t you help me at all?"

Fang Anning almost vomited her breakfast and sarcastically responded to Chen Mengmeng, "Two-Faced, could you stay away from me when it’s unnecessary? Just seeing you makes me nauseous."

"Shut up, you wild girl," Chen Mengmeng yelled.

After yelling, she caught up with Mu Yunxi and said, "Yunxi, look, this girl isn’t dead. Don’t be sad anymore."

"Anning, it’s great you’re not dead, truly great."

Mu Yunxi had been staring at Fang Anning ever since he arrived, completely ignoring Chen Mengmeng.

When he approached Fang Anning, he couldn’t help but grab her into an embrace.

Both Chen Mengmeng and Fang Anning were stunned.

However, before Chen Mengmeng could yell, Fang Anning pushed Mu Yunxi away and said coldly, "Mu, mind your behavior please."

"Yunxi, how can you hug her? I’m the one who likes you!" Chen Mengmeng cried bitterly.

Mu Yunxi couldn’t help but scold her, "Shut up, I never liked you."

"Mu Yunxi, you’re too much," Chen Mengmeng cried out before covering her face and running away.

Fang Anning felt so embarrassed she almost got goosebumps.

Is Chen Mengmeng thinking she’s in a soap opera?

"Are you not going to chase her?" Fang Anning asked jokingly.

With a frown, Mu Yunxi said, "I don’t like her, why should I chase her?"

"You might not like her, but don’t like me either because I don’t like you," Fang Anning quickly responded.

Thinking of the recent hug, she still felt uncomfortable and shuddered.

"Anning, what I told you last time was all true," Mu Yunxi said earnestly.

Fang Anning gritted her teeth, why is he bringing up last time?

"Did I hear that you got locked up by your family?" Fang Anning asked.

Mu Yunxi replied happily, "So you do care about me, knowing even that I was confined by my family."

"I am not concerned about you, Two-Faced told me that," Fang Anning said.

Mu Yunxi seemed to have not heard her clarification, indulged in the joy of her caring about him.

"Anning, I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid of He Tingchen at all. That despicable man ordered someone to accuse me of coveting his wife, causing my father to lock me up and beat me. But I am not scared. Anning, let’s elope!"

Fang Anning: "..."

Seeing Mu Yunxi’s sincere expression, certain he wasn’t joking, she couldn’t help but snort with laughter, "Mu Yunxi, what exactly did I do to give you the impression I would elope with you?"

She tried hard to remember every interaction with Mu Yunxi, and was certain, other than despising and rejecting him, she had never even shown him a smiling face.

What on earth has Mu Yunxi taken to think of eloping with her?

"Anning, it’s not a misunderstanding, it was love at first sight," Mu Yunxi earnestly said, "The moment I first saw you, I liked you, and it was love at first sight. Anning, I know you are living in misery, staying by the side of King of Hell like walking on thin ice. But don’t be scared, I’ll take you away, far from here, so He Tingchen can never find us."

"Love at first sight my foot, I warn you, stop bothering me, I don’t like you one bit," Fang Anning rebuked harshly.

She might be walking on thin ice by He Tingchen’s side, but she definitely didn’t need his rescue from misery.

"Anning, are you scared of He Tingchen? Don’t worry, I’ve come up with a foolproof plan."

Mu Yunxi wouldn’t let it go, still pestering Anning relentlessly.

Anning clenched her teeth in anger and, clutching her books, started running as fast as she could to shake him off.

Now, Anning finally understood what the phrase ’sticky as a plaster’ truly meant – it must have been created for people like Mu Yunxi!

He clung to her during class, after class, and even during meals.

His only intention was to elope with her.

Anning was furious and, just then, Two-Faced came to settle accounts with her, Anning immediately asked, "Two-Faced, do you have Mu Yunxi’s father’s phone number?"

"What for? You want to seduce my uncle too?" Two-Faced asked in shock.

Anning rolled her eyes and retorted, "I don’t have the charm you possess."

"Anning, you bitch, how dare you curse at me! Cousin, come help me out here."

Two-Faced realized she had been made a mockery by Anning again, and quickly spoke to Zhou Muyan who was with her.

Zhou Muyan ignored her and asked Anning, "Anning, what have you done to my parents in the United States?"

"United States?" Anning raised an eyebrow.

Zhou Muyan said, "My parents are getting a divorce as soon as they get back, and they say it’s all because of you."

Anning, laughing, said, "Their bad relationship is none of my business, why blame me? Zhou Muyan, instead of accusing me, you should take better care of your parents and make sure they reconcile soon, so they don’t harm others."

"Anning, don’t get too smug, acting all high and mighty just because you have He Tingchen to back you up." Zhou Muyan snapped.

Anning chuckled proudly, "Exactly, I am acting high and mighty because I have He Tingchen to back me up, what about it? If you’re capable, why don’t you do the same! After all, you pushed him onto me, I really should thank you for that."

"Hmph, what’s there to be proud of? He’s just my sloppy seconds. If I ever want him back, it would be a piece of cake," Zhou Muyan clenched her fist.

After speaking, she told Two-Faced, "Let’s go," and turned to leave.

Two-Faced seemed confused, weren’t they here to teach this wild girl a lesson? Why leave without doing anything?

"Cousin, wait for me." Two-Faced hurried after her.

Anning smirked.

Then, out of nowhere, Mu Yunxi appeared again, gave Anning a thumbs up and praised, "Anning, you’re truly smart. Talking this way will surely make Zhou Muyan go to He Tingchen, and if he takes a liking to her, he’ll leave you alone. Then, we could successfully elope."

"Elope your head, who wants to elope with you. If you keep spouting nonsense, I’ll call the police and report that you’re harassing me," Anning sternly warned.

Yet, Mu Yunxi, undeterred and not discouraged at all, kept pestering, "Anning, I know you like me too. You’re just refusing because you don’t want to drag me into your troubles. Don’t worry, I’m not afraid of He Tingchen, not one bit."

Anning took a deep breath, unable to hold back any longer, she turned around and slapped Mu Yunxi across the face.

After the slap even her own hand hurt, she shook her hand and coldly asked, "Still think I like you?"

"Beating is a sign of affection, scolding is a sign of love, of course, you like me," Mu Yunxi, touching his face, laughed it off.

Anning rolled her eyes so hard she almost passed out.

She immediately started running, quickly locating Chen Rui’s car.

"Chen Rui, drive quickly, there’s a lunatic chasing me," Anning said urgently as she got into the car.

"A lunatic?" a man’s deep voice responded.

Anning stiffened her neck and turned her head only to see the man was also in the car, which startled her into recoiling.

"What are you doing here?"
