Chapter 123: My People Play However You Want 50_1

Ye Hua laughed openly, appearing to be in a good mood today, even his laughter was more frequent than usual.

Baili Xia remembered that Ye Hua shared some similarities with Uncle in his temperament.

Perhaps proximity with Uncle had influenced him, even his demeanor had become moody and stern, losing his warmth and laughter.

Of course, today was an exception.

If Uncle knew these thoughts of hers, would he punish her again in his anger?

“Miss Xiaxia, Mr.

Xiaojiu is waiting for you.

I’ll take you to him.” Ye Hua suddenly said.

Baili Xia didn’t respond but instinctively tried to follow his pace.

However, after a few steps, she suddenly recalled the incident of that day.

Uncle had pushed her away, nearly drowning her in the ocean…

Remembering this, her strides slowed down.

Actually, she really wanted to see Uncle, it had been a long time since they last met.

However, this eagerness to see him, stirred a certain unwillingness in her heart.

She reminded herself that she merely wanted to check on Uncle, to see if he was well.

She would leave as soon as he was fine.

She didn’t know why she missed him so much, but she couldn’t stop thinking about him.

But when she saw the luxurious car quietly parked in the corner, she remembered again.

If she went to see Uncle, it wasn’t whether she wanted to leave or not, rather, it was whether Uncle was willing to let her go.

Ye Hua didn’t allow her to think too much, his big palm suddenly landed on her shoulder when they were nearing the car.

Again he forcibly guided her, pushing her towards the car.

He casually opened the car door and gestured for her to get in.

Baili Xia looked up to see a tall figure leisurely sitting on the other side of the backseat.

He was sitting cross-legged, with an opened laptop on his lap.

His long, perfect fingers were typing on the laptop’s keyboard.

He was clearly working.

On hearing the car door, he glanced towards her before continuing with his work, fingers still typing on the keyboard.

Baili Xia pouted immediately.

He was so busy, why was she summoned here?

Uncle was fine, perfectly fine.

From the beginning to the end, the only one who was not okay was her.

She instinctively tried to step back.

Suddenly, Ye Hua gently pushed her in.

His force was not heavy, but she bumped headfirst into the car.

By the time she turned around, Ye Hua had already closed the car door with a bang.

With a click, it was clear that the car door was locked.

A defiant Baili Xia attempted to open the car door again, pulling on the car handle.

No matter how hard she pushed, the door was shut tight.

She couldn’t get out.

She bit her lip, turning around to glare at the man still absorbed in his work.

“I have to get to school.

I can’t be late.”

“There’s still almost half an hour left.”

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t move his eyes from the screen, but clearly, he was speaking to her.

“What’s the rush?

Don’t you want to see me?”

Baili Xia kept biting her lip, even starting to grumble.

“Why would I want to see you?

You have harmed me enough, haven’t you?”

Mu Xiaojiu’s long finger paused for a moment, then he merely smiled lightly, and continued with his work, without any further pause.

Several minutes later, it seemed like he had finished his work.

Closing the laptop and setting it aside, he patted his lap, looking at her: “Come here.”
