Ye Hua and the two brothers shuddered all over, “the cage” was a place where they dealt with people.

“The cage” was actually part of a wildlife park owned by Mu Corporation.

This place was also a restricted area of the zoo, housing the most ferocious animals.

A normal person entering would hardly survive more than two hours.

As for those who were crippled, one could easily guess their fate.

Especially, the experience before death, was even more horrifying.

Ye Hua’s heart tightened, staring at the empty doorway, feeling increasingly heavy-hearted.

Mr.

Xiaojiu, this was no matter what, a lesson he was determined to teach the master.

This time, the master really crossed Mr.

Xiaojiu’s bottom line.

…

Ding City.

After listening to the call with Mu Xuri and Mu Xiaojiu, Wen Yu felt as if she was encased in ice, stiff and completely unable to move.

Since the phone was on speaker, she heard everything clearly.

Mu Xiaojiu spoke without a trace of emotion.

Having seen him grow up from a child, her understanding of Mu Xiaojiu was unmatched by many.

From his tone, she clearly knew that if pushed further, he would indeed do it.

Until the call ended, she still couldn’t believe this was real.

The person who had cherished her since childhood could actually be so ruthless towards her.

And she, couldn’t even compare to a girl he had only known for half a year.

Could someone she watched grow up really be this heartless towards her?

Mu Xuri was also angered, the call was ended by Mu Xiaojiu before he could finish speaking.

What made him even more furious was that Mu Xiaojiu actually dared to threaten him, using his woman as leverage.

Looking at Wen Yu, who was still stiff from shock, Mu Xuri wheeled his chair closer to her.

Gently patting Wen Yu’s hand, he spoke softly, “Don’t worry, the kid was just panicking and speaking recklessly, he won’t actually do it.”

“From childhood till now, you have always taken care of him, he will not forget your kindness.”

Wen Yu nodded gently, but still, tears finally fell uncontrollably.

Jiu never spoke rashly out of anger; if he said it, he would definitely do it.

If Mu Xuri dared to touch Baili Xia again, she would be the next to suffer.

It wasn’t that Jiu was heartless, but rather, he valued Baili Xia too dearly.

So dearly that no one else could compare…

…

That night, Baili Xia had many nightmares, always waking up startled.

It seemed like there was always someone taking care of her; each time she woke up, his large palm would rest on her head, gently massaging.

Comforted by him, she soon fell asleep again.

After several such disturbances, by the time they both genuinely fell asleep, it was already around three or four in the morning.

Therefore, when they woke up the next day, it was already past eight.

Not hearing the alarm, one could imagine how exhausting their night had been.

As soon as Baili Xia opened her eyes, she saw a pale blue shirt and smelled a familiar scent, but it wasn’t Uncle’s.

Her confused consciousness instantly snapped back, her eyes widened as she abruptly sat up.

The sudden movement accidentally bumped her injured ankle, causing her to cry out in pain.

Mu Xiaoyao sat up the moment he woke and upon hearing her cry, he immediately pulled back the blanket covering her and gently lifted her leg.

“Don’t move recklessly, it will hurt even more.”
