“Zimo, I’m fine, I just twisted my ankle myself, really, it’s nothing.”

Baili Xia moved her body, trying to sit up, but as soon as she moved her leg, a heart-wrenching pain came from her ankle.

Zimo’s hand rested on her shoulder, gently pressing down.

Seeing her safe and asleep in bed, the tension that had been building up finally completely relaxed.

“I’m sorry, I only found out about this after I entered.” She said hoarsely.

It was only after Feng Gang and Mu Lingchuan mentioned it when she came in that she knew.

But Xiaxia, such an ordinary girl, to think that someone would actually try to assassinate her!

“Who was it?

Who have you offended?”

Baili Xia shook her head: “I don’t know, I think…

they probably mistook me for someone else.”

“Xiaxia!” Zimo’s face darkened, and her expression became serious.

Under such circumstances, she still had the mood to joke.

“Really, I don’t know that person at all, you know I don’t like to make enemies with others.”

Baili Xia was startled by her stern look; Zimo never scolded her.

She knew she cared about herself, but this time, she could only pretend to be dumb.

“Maybe, the target was actually Jin, I was just implicated.”

Mu Lingchuan and Mu Xiaoyao looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Since they didn’t know what to say, it might be better to leave the topic to them.

Mu Lingchuan looked at Zimo’s slender back: “I will have someone investigate, don’t worry, Xiaoyao will look after her from now on.”

His words made Baili Xia feel even more guilty.

Earlier she told Brother that she would study in the dorm and go home with him in the afternoon.

Instead, she went out with Jin without even saying a word to him.

Her eyes slightly lifted, stealing a glance at Mu Xiaoyao, only to find Brother staring at her unblinkingly.

That heavy gaze made Baili Xia’s heart skip a beat, she immediately withdrew her gaze, not daring to look at him any longer.

“I will take good care of her,” Mu Xiaoyao said heavily.

These words, she didn’t know if they were a response to Mu Lingchuan, or if they were deliberately said for her to hear.

Anyway, after he said that, Baili Xia always felt a chill on her neck, really scary.

Does this mean she will be under surveillance from now on?

…

Because Baili Xia’s foot was injured and it was inconvenient, during dinner, Mu Xiaoyao had the servants bring up the food, and didn’t ask her to come down.

Fortunately, Zimo was with her all the time, otherwise, it would have been very inconvenient for her tonight.

Feng Gang came to see her in the evening.

Although she is no longer Miss Mu, she is still Mr.

Mu’s girlfriend.

As the butler, it was normal for Feng Gang to come visit and bring some nourishment.

By the way, he also relayed a greeting from the old master.

Whether it was the old master’s own intention or not, at least in this respect, Feng Gang, the butler, did an excellent job, utterly flawless.

Ning Anran also came to see her.

Although Zimo’s attitude had always been poor, Ning Anran was used to being the weaker party.

Being bullied, faced with cold attitudes, it seemed as though she didn’t care at all.

Zimo couldn’t be bothered with her, staying by Baili Xia’s side the entire time, especially when Ning Anran came over to offer condolences.

Zimo treated Ning Anran as if she was an assassin, always on guard.

This cautious attitude almost made Baili Xia burst into laughter.

Ning Anran did not stay long in Baili Xia’s room, she left quickly.

Later, after receiving the news, Mu Ziying and Mu Ziqing also came.

Neither of them knew exactly what had happened to Baili Xia, only that she had injured her foot.

After confirming her safety and staying in the room for a while, they left under Mu Xiaoyao’s urging.

The people who should have come have probably all made a visit, right?
