Chapter 1032

Nangong Xu just glanced at her and did not speak.

Baili Xia looked away and cast her eyes down to her still-flat belly.

What would happen if she angered him, she wondered—yet why even ask such a question?

Angering Uncle, what could possibly end well, and why must she deliberately antagonize him?

An arm cannot twist a thigh.

If Uncle truly wanted her to give birth here, before she got a chance to escape, it would be better to first learn how to protect herself.

“Master, I’m tired, I want to sleep for a while,” she suddenly said.

“Alright.” Nangong Xu fluffed the blanket for her and, before leaving, he couldn’t resist reminding her, “Do not play tricks, do not think about escaping.

It will anger him.”

“Angering Mr.

Xiaojiu is not a bit beneficial for the child in your belly.

Be good, Master will stay here with you, taking care of you, alright?”

She did not respond, lying on the bed and pulling the blanket over herself.

She just looked at him somberly once and then turned her face away, no longer looking at him.

Nangong Xu was also helpless; at this point, they could only play it by ear.

What Mr.

Xiaojiu was really thinking, perhaps no one truly knew.

Last night he was still furious, almost to the point of murder, yet today he had already made such a decision.

Actually, Mr.

Xiaojiu was conceding, but the girl just hadn’t felt it.

Besides, even if Mr.

Xiaojiu conceded, he was still so proud, not willing to approach her with a good attitude.

With both of them like this, how were they to walk the path ahead properly?

Both too proud, couldn’t one of them compromise first?

…

Baili Xia was awakened by noises.

Though the person who entered tried to be as quiet as possible, the sound of the water faucet while he bathed had woken her up.

Baili Xia just opened her eyes briefly before quickly closing them again.

Perhaps it was because of the long exposure to the sea breeze today; her head felt dizzy and there was a light swelling in her lower abdomen.

Her body was not feeling well; she preferred to keep lying in bed.

The man from the bathroom came out quickly, casually dried himself with a towel, then went to the wardrobe to find clothes.

Baili Xia opened her eyes a second time, and what she saw was such a radiant, seductive scene!

The man stood naked in front of the wardrobe, his muscular build not rough at all but explosively attractive, presented starkly before her eyes.

His physique was truly splendid, to the point of perfection!

The inverted triangle of his torso, coupled with the excessively elongated lines, each curve was just right, every part was perfectly sculpted.

Broad shoulders, a narrow waist, a sexy…

rear, and most criminally, his proportionately long legs.

Those legs, one could tell they were so powerful, robust, alluring, and filled with a sense of security.

That body…

it made one’s mouth dry and heart pound erratically, completely unable to stop.

No wonder so many women wanted to climb into his bed, fantasizing about being pinned down by him—this man truly had all it took to make women scream for him constantly!

“Have you looked enough?” His voice, low and slightly cold, resonated.

He picked a set of casual clothes, slowly got dressed, and coldly said, “If you’ve seen enough, get up.”

Baili Xia gasped, reluctantly dragging her gaze from his body, and slowly sat up on the bed.

Did Uncle grow eyes on the back of his head?

She had only looked for a moment and was caught red-handed!
