Chapter 1073

Ye Hua is truly loyal to Uncle, always seizing every opportunity to sing his praises.

“You think I’m just flattering?” Ye Hua could guess what she was thinking by her expression alone.

“Do you know who was the first to venture into the Beast Area?”

Baili Xia didn’t even need to think, her gaze immediately shifted to Mu Xiaojiu.

As Ye Hua approached them, his eyes curved into a smile: “You really know the goods.”

“Uncle, you are calling yourself a commodity,” Baili Xia bit her finger, feigning innocence.

Ye Hua paused for a moment, his face suddenly changed: “You little rascal, that’s not what I meant!”

He looked at Mu Xiaojiu: “Mr.

Xiaojiu…”

“Knowing she’s a little rascal, yet you still play along with her?” Mu Xiaojiu gave him a faint glance, his words neither salty nor bland: “Did your IQ get eaten by a dog?”

“…” Ye Hua was really innocent.

These two are dating, why drag him into being cannon fodder?

However, he was fine on his own, why did he come over here to be cannon fodder?

He came because he indeed had something to do…

Thinking about it, Ye Hua slapped his forehead, even beginning to despise himself.

IQ really must have been eaten by a dog, such an important issue almost made him completely forget due to a few words from Baili Xia.

He looked at Mu Xiaojiu, his expression slightly straightened: “The old master said Miss Xiaxia and Mr. Mu have been out too long, they must return home for dinner tonight no matter what.”

Baili Xia was taken aback, instinctively looking at Mu Xiaojiu.

Previously, Uncle had someone tell the grandfather that she and Brother went out traveling.

Adding up the time, she had been on this island for almost half a month.

Now, there isn’t much time left until the last competition of the Eight Big Families.

They didn’t make use of every little bit of time to practice well, instead, they ran around playing, which indeed was not appropriate.

She previously faked a pregnancy and had a major fallout with Uncle; the grandfather still doesn’t know about this.

If grandfather finds out… she couldn’t even imagine.

But, the matter with her and Uncle will inevitably come to light.

They cannot forever be secret lovers hidden from the public eye.

Things are really complex; with her little brain, she couldn’t think of a perfect solution.

Mu Xiaojiu took her small hand into his grip, squeezing slightly with his big palm.

“Don’t worry, I will handle this matter. Let’s hold off for now, and after the competition of the Eight Big Families is over, I will figure something out.”

Baili Xia nodded; Uncle said he would figure it out, so she felt relieved.

Somehow, she just particularly believed in his words, trusted in his capability.

“Mr. Xiaojiu, then tonight…” Ye Hua looked at the two who were embracing.

After having Miss Xiaxia, Mr.

Xiaojiu had indeed changed a lot, no longer as irascible and bloodthirsty as before.

Following the incident with the fake pregnancy, their relationship rapidly warmed up, and everyone can see the changes in Mr.

Xiaojiu.

No longer the cold and frightening figure, now on him, one can even occasionally see a hint of sunshine.

Warm, touching the heart.

Such a Mr.

Xiaojiu, is a real flesh and blood human being.

Thus Ye Hua decided, from now on, he would no longer think about the scenarios without Miss Xiaxia.

Miss Xiaxia will always exist, forever, the lady of this island.

“Once Xiaoyao finishes his training, tell him to get ready and come back with us to the Mu family this afternoon.”

Mu Xiaojiu did not say much more, still wrapped around Baili Xia as they walked down the little path ahead.
