Chapter 101: My People Play However You Want 28_1

“What, throwing a tantrum in front of me?”

Baili Xia’s expression changed slightly, and Mu Xiaojiu noticed it.

He sauntered over and sat down on the exquisite wicker chair, crossing his long legs.

As he leaned back in the chair, looking at her, his languid pose was enough to drive many girls crazy.

Unfortunately, the only female present was Baili Xia.

No matter how handsome Uncle was, he couldn’t make her go crazy for him.

She knew better than anyone else that Uncle had a wicked heart.

“I didn’t,” she mumbled, lowering her head.

Mu Xiaojiu pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one with a flick.

He took a deep drag, then slowly exhaled, his gaze lingering on her unadorned yet exquisite face through the smoky haze.

He drawled, “So it seems, you’ve already chosen Lingchuan without hesitation.”

“Huh?” Baili Xia looked up at him, her eyes full of confusion.

What did Uncle mean?

“Aren’t you and Lingchuan on good terms?

Have you met Xiaoyao?

Do you really have no need to choose?” He asked casually.

Baili Xia blinked, it took her a while to grasp his words.

She shook her head involuntarily, “I haven’t chosen anyone, I have no intention of marrying either of them.”

Something flickered in the depths of Mu Xiaojiu’s eyes and, in an instant, his face seemed to light up.

He took another puff, still staring at her face, speaking softly.

“Since the old man has asked you to choose one, you should choose carefully.

And don’t blame Uncle for not warning you.

Choosing a husband is a lifelong matter, so make sure not to rush it.

Even if it takes a bit more time, you must be careful.”

Baili Xia frowned, completely unable to fathom what the man was thinking.

What did he mean by choosing carefully, or even if it takes more time?

Why did she feel like he had other intentions?

But, she didn’t understand at all.

“Uncle, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go outside now.”

If she didn’t understand, then she didn’t guess.

Men’s hearts are as mysterious as the sea bottom, guessing was no use at all.

“So eager to escape from my presence?

Do you want to be with Lingchuan?”

Her carefree demeanor was again making Mu Xiaojiu unhappy.

It was this kind of unhappiness that even Baili Xia could plainly see.

“Uncle, do you have something else you want to tell me?”

He didn’t want her to leave, yet didn’t know what he wanted to do by bringing her here.

Uncle’s intentions were really hard to guess.

With so many people outside, and the sound insulation in this cabin wasn’t good, would he dare to do something to her here?

As she remembered those times when he had taken advantage of her, her cheeks turned quickly red.

Mu Xiaojiu’s gaze was fixed on her little face, and not a single change in her expression escaped his sharp eyes.

Blushing…

he frowned, who exactly was she blushing for?

Why did he suddenly feel like she became an enigma to him?

He was annoyed and took another puff, his gaze continually locked on her face.

“Remember what I said, there’s no need to make a decision now.

Wait until you meet Xiaoyao, get to know him a little, and then think it over slowly.

You’re still young, there’s no need to rush into marriage.”

Baili Xia really felt that the Uncle sitting in front of her was different from before.

His demeanor tonight felt…

well, a bit nagging.

A nagging Uncle…

well, that’s rare.
