Bei Tianyou and Nangong Xu exchanged looks, then turned to Baili Xia.

Eventually, under the confident gaze of Baili Xia, they left.

“Tao, go with Fan Yi to the kitchen and see what kind of late-night snack we can prepare for Madame Bei and Xiaxia.”

Before leaving, Bei Tianyou still felt uneasy and addressed the little maid by Tang Jixin’s side.

Tang Jixin bit her lip, really wanting to curse him out loud.

Her own son, always considering others first, afraid of her “causing trouble”, bullying this girl!

How could she not be angry when her son chooses to turn his elbow out?

However, this was Bei Tianyou’s final concession.

Tao was also somewhat skilled herself; leaving her in the room would definitely be to Baili Xia’s disadvantage.

It’s not that he doesn’t care about his mother at all, but he knows well that Baili Xia would not resort to violence.

But Tang Jixin might, he knows his mother all too well.

As long as it involves her own safety, she would interfere without concern for reason or righteousness.

With all unrelated people gone, only Baili Xia and Tang Jixin were left in the room.

Baili Xia looked at her and smiled, “I’ve just recovered from an illness, and my health hasn’t been fully restored…”

“What now? You’ve come to the Bei Family, recuperated here, and still expect me to serve you?”

Tang Jixin raised an eyebrow and immediately let out these words.

This girl indeed had been sick, and she had managed to gather some information about it.

She hadn’t spent the night in her son’s room last night, but her son had come back with her, even carrying her back.

She had sent someone to ask the gatekeeper security, who relayed the information back to her.

Staying overnight outside was simply more outrageous than spending the night together at home!

When Tang Jixin learned of this, she immediately barged in here.

Unless this enchantress is driven away, she won’t be able to rest easy.

Baili Xia was not bothered by Tang Jixin’s provocation.

She just indifferently said, “How dare I trouble Madame Bei to serve me? I simply hope Madame Bei can sleep beside the bed, so I can sit and give you acupoint pressing.”

At her words, Tang Jixin found it laughable.

She sneered, disbelievingly saying, “You want to serve me, yet also want me to make it convenient for you, what’s the point then?”

As if finding the matter incredibly ridiculous, she sneered again before continuing, “So noble, why not be a wealthy young lady?

Why run to the Bei Family to suffer?”

“I think Madame Bei is mistaken, I really am not here to serve you.”

Seeing her uncooperative, Baili Xia, to avoid standing for too long, simply sat down directly on the sofa.

Looking at Tang Jixin standing there, she said lightly, “It’s only because you are Brother You’s mother that I see you’re too stressed and kindly want to help you relax.”

Seeing Tang Jixin’s expression change, she remained unhurriedly calm in her speech.

“Although I am not any wealthy young lady, I certainly don’t need to suffer here serving you, Madame Bei, you are overthinking it.”

“You…” Tang Jixin’s faced flushed with anger, but she was at a loss for words to retort.

It seems, she really had not said she would serve her, merely offered to give her acupressure massages.

“Madame Bei is often under so much stress that not only do you get headaches at night, but even during the day, if you stand or sit for too long, your temples will throb with pain.”

Tang Jixin’s complexion changed slightly, but she did not speak and simply stared at her.

Baili Xia continued, “It’s not just headaches, you also suffer from frequent insomnia. Sometimes, you can’t sleep until three or four in the morning, and you’re always restless.”
