Chapter 1060

“I’m scared too, I’m afraid of falling, but I mustered the courage to come find you, and you just started yelling at me!

Why did you yell at me?”

“What did I do wrong?

From being forced by you, to carrying your child, to now being confined on this island…

Mu Xiaojiu, what exactly did I do wrong?

Why are you still treating me this way?”

He bent down slightly and picked up the coat she had thrown on the ground.

Seeing her expression change, he immediately said softly, “Just putting a coat on you… Okay, I’ll stop talking, you continue hitting, continue yelling.”

He really was putting the coat on her.

The wind was strong and chilly on the cliffside, and with a baby in her belly, standing against the wind like this would make her cold.

Baili Xia didn’t hold back, unleashing all her grievances, no matter how repetitive.

After all, she just wanted to yell at someone, to hit someone!

The coat draped over her, and to not hinder her from hitting him, Mu Xiaojiu only draped it over her without zipping it up.

At the edge of the cliff, the scene at this moment was a bit eerie.

The man held the girl with one arm and supported the coat with the other to prevent it from slipping off.

Yet, the girl continued to pound on his chest, crying out her grievances.

It wasn’t until she clearly had no strength left to cry, and her voice turned hoarse, that Mu Xiaojiu finally looked at her deeply.

His voice, very soft, clearly showed a hint of yielding.

“Can I say a few words now?”

Baili Xia was truly tired of yelling, and she didn’t even know what to yell about anymore.

Upon hearing his words, although her lips were pouting and her eyes were red, she didn’t stop him.

Finally getting her permission, Mu Xiaojiu sighed deeply.

Still holding her gently, his voice was indescribably tender, “I’m sorry, I was wrong, will you forgive me?”

She didn’t respond, and he continued, “I wasn’t doubting you, really, I wasn’t.”

“Bullshit!” If he wasn’t doubting, would he treat her like this?

“…” Mu Xiaojiu felt helpless, wondering whether he should point out her mistake at this time.

Speaking so uncivilly was prohibited in the Mu family.

Well, prohibited for girls.

But in the end, he decided to let it go for tonight, corrective matters could be discussed later.

Having finally stopped crying, why stir her up now and risk making her weep again?

“Really, I wasn’t doubting, I’m not lying.”

Before she could argue, he earnestly said, “If I really doubted, Dongfang Jin would be a dead body by now.”

Baili Xia shuddered slightly at the phrase “a dead body.”

“Don’t panic, I mean… if.” Knowing that his image in her heart wasn’t very good, a threatening word from him indeed had strong implications.

Mu Xiaojiu quickly explained, worried he might upset her again, or even cause her to continue resisting him.

“I just wanted to tell you, I’ve never doubted you and him, I know, he truly cares about you.”

For him to admit another man cares about his woman was indeed hard to swallow.

But, it was the truth.

The truth he couldn’t deny.

“Then why… why that day…” Remembering the terrifying situation that day, Baili Xia’s eyes reddened again.

“I’m sorry.” Apart from sorry, Mu Xiaojiu really didn’t know what else to say.

If he admitted, even he didn’t know why he suddenly lost his temper that day, would she believe him?
