Chapter 1124

Hearing Ziying’s words, Baili Xia couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows in surprise.

Seeing the question in her heart, Ziying explained.

“It is said that her current physical condition is still not good, after all, she was severely burned, how quickly can the body recover to be as strong as before? That’s why she gave up her rights.”

Baili Xia nodded, feeling sympathy for Sima Liuyue.

Although at the last moment of the last fighting competition, Sima Liuyue lost control a bit and almost attacked herself.

But Bai Xia remembered that it didn’t seem like Sima Liuyue’s usual style.

For some reason, she always felt that, with Sima Liuyue’s ability and character, she wouldn’t do something so outrageous.

Perhaps, at that moment, her mind was not clear, Baili Xia always thought so.

Thus, hearing now that Sima Liuyue’s body has been severely injured and she can’t participate in the competition, she still felt a bit of regret for her.

As she was thinking, Sima Liuyue was already walking towards them.

Approaching the Mu family members, Sima Liuyue first greeted Mu Xiaojiu, then turned to look at Baili Xia.

“Miss Baili, hello, I’m really sorry about last time.”

At this moment, Baili Xia suddenly felt that Sima Liuyue seemed much gentler, no longer as cold and proud as before.

Baili Xia nodded slightly and said indifferently, “It’s okay, as long as everyone is safe in the end.”

This was a pun; the first meaning was that Sima Liuyue ultimately did not really hurt her.

The second was that Sima Liuyue survived by a fluke, which was fortunate.

Sima Liuyue picked up on the underlying meaning in Baili Xia’s words and nodded.

“Yes, being safe is indeed the best.”

After a pause, Sima Liuyue continued.

“Hehe, Miss Baili, I have already scolded my sister, and she won’t trouble you anymore. For whatever offenses we had in the past, please forgive us.”

It was then Baili Xia realized, so it was for this reason that Sima Liuli had reined herself in.

Indeed, people change after great trials.

The current Sima Liuyue was much easier to get along with than before.

“It’s okay, it’s just some occasional jokes among us, no harm done.”

After experiencing many things, Baili Xia had also become much more diplomatic.

In any case, if others don’t offend me, I won’t offend others.

As long as Sima Liuli truly restrains herself from now on, Baili Xia was also happy to have less trouble.

No one really wants to constantly get into fights and troubles; that’s something one might do only out of extreme boredom.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Sima Liuyue took her leave and headed towards the Sima family crowd.

Sima Liuyue hadn’t walked far when Baili Xia saw from afar two people approaching.

Seeing these two, Baili Xia felt a tightness in her heart; it was Dongfang Jin and his mother Qin Yimo.

It was normal for Dongfang Jin to look for her, but his mother Qin Yimo seldom got in touch, and past memories were not that pleasant.

But just then, the two stopped when they encountered Sima Liuyue.

Qin Yimo took Sima Liuyue’s hand and started talking with her tenderly.

Dongfang Jin simply nodded to Sima Liuyue as a greeting, then passed by her towards Baili Xia.

Coming to Baili Xia’s side, Dongfang Jin gently asked, “How have you been recently, feeling better?”

Baili Xia nodded slightly, “I’m okay now.”

Dongfang Jin smiled, “Be careful when we enter the woods later. Try not to go to secluded places alone, some terrains can be quite dangerous.”
