Chapter 1193

Baili Xia ran back to the main house in one breath, then up to the second floor, and into her own room.

Once the door closed behind her, leaning against it, only then did she fiercely realize the path in between had been so very long.

She was now so tired she didn’t even have the strength to breathe.

Her legs gave out, she slid onto the floor, and simply didn’t get up, hugging her knees and gasping for air.

She had slapped Uncle, she had actually slapped him in the face just now!

Such a proud man as Uncle, slapped in the face by a girl, how furious must he be now?

But why did Uncle say those words on purpose to provoke her?

Don’t think she can’t see through it, he was deliberately humiliating her, does he want her to leave his side?

Uncle must be facing huge challenges and dangers right now, that’s why he doesn’t want her to stay by his side.

Having gone through so much, if she couldn’t even see this, what right did she have to like him?

But that guy says nothing, and has to act this way, doesn’t he know it would hurt her heart?

If he likes it this way, then she can only play along with his wishes, pretend to be angry and run out.

However, the slap just now was unintentional.

She didn’t do it on purpose, if she wasn’t really blinded by rage, how could she have the heart to hit him?

It’s amazing that Uncle didn’t strangle her on the spot in his anger.

But what exactly is Uncle facing?

She knows absolutely nothing about his world, and although she thought about entering it, Uncle never allowed her through the door.

His world is very dangerous, but if she doesn’t even have the chance to stand by his side, to face the storms together, then how long can such feelings last?

She didn’t know how long she had been sitting on the floor, and it took a great effort for her to find the strength to get up.

Just as she was about to go lie down on the sofa to rest for a while, unexpectedly, someone knocked on the door behind her.

Knock knock knock, a rhythmic knocking, knocked once with no response, followed by three more knocks, knock knock knock.

So polite, it couldn’t possibly be Brother.

As for the elder brother, he also probably wouldn’t have this much patience.

After knocking twice and getting no response, he had probably already left.

But, this person knocked a third time, such a polite person…

Her eyes flickered, but she followed the original plan and lay down on the sofa.

Looking at that door, she responded, “Come in.”

The door was pushed open, and following that, a figure almost as petite as hers, appeared in her field of vision.

Ning Anran’s eyes were still a bit red and puffy, anyone could tell she had just been crying bitterly.

Today, she really cried a lot, before they came back, she was in Grandpa’s room, who knew for how long she cried.

Just before she went to look for Uncle, Ning Anran came out of Uncle’s room crying, too.

What is she doing here in her room now?

To cry?

Does crying also require picking a setting?

“I don’t have much strength.” Baili Xia lay on the couch, turned her head, and looked at her: “If it’s not something very important, better to talk about it tomorrow.”

“I’m sorry, Xiaxia,” said Ning Anran as she walked over after closing the door, coming toward her, and suddenly, she knelt down with a thump.

“Xiaxia, it wasn’t intentional, I don’t know what happened, those words weren’t mine, you can check,” she said.

“I didn’t know the old dean was still there, I didn’t know what the old dean told them, I really didn’t mean it, I don’t even want to be Miss Sun.”
