Chapter 1249

Baili Xia knew that Guisu despised her in his heart.

But she always believed that this was a kind of progress.

It’s good to care about someone, no matter who the object of that care is, it was essentially a kind heart.

However, Guisu’s description of Bei Miao was perhaps too terrifying.

“I’ve actually also been to Bei Miao, it’s not as scary as you said,” she said.

Guisu, however, remained expressionless, his words filled with disdain: “The last time you went, you mostly stayed in the Bei Family’s place every day, completely unaware of how chaotic the outside world was.”

“I’m not talking about the last time.” Her last visit to the Bei Family for recovery had indeed meant staying within their walls all day, never going outside.

But, her visits to Bei Miao were not just limited to that one time.

“Actually, I also occasionally went to Bei Miao when I was a child, more than just once.”

“When you were a child?” Guisu frowned slightly.

“Yes, when I was a child, but, generally it was to take care of Lu Xuening.”

Saying this, Baili Xia unconsciously slowed down.

The extent of Lu Xuening’s influence on Guisu was something she was not sure of.

“Why don’t you continue?” Guisu reacted indifferently, as if now mentioning Lu Xuening in front of him no longer affected him much.

Baili Xia heaved a sigh of relief, then continued: “Lu Xuening’s master lives in Bei Miao, sometimes during winter she would need someone to take care of her, so Lu An arranged for me to accompany her.”

“So, although you are ostensibly her sister, in reality, you’re no different from a maid?”

Guisu felt a sourness in his heart for her.

He had come to understand Lu Xuening’s personality over the years; she was spoiled and always required someone to attend to her.

It was just that he had been convinced of her kindness before, regardless of what she did, he believed it was right.

Now stepping out of that mindset, he realized a lot of it was his own mistake.

Nevertheless, Lu Xuening always had a great kindness towards him, this fact, whether right or wrong, couldn’t be changed.

“Actually, I have something else I wanted to tell you today.” Baili Xia looked at him, her eyes slightly cautious.

She might be leaving Jin City for Bei Miao soon, unsure of when she would return.

But she had previously promised Guisu…

“About the matter that Lu Xuening had already died a long time ago?” Guisu didn’t look at her.

Baili Xia’s heart jolted, suddenly feeling guilty.

Something scrawled on it, she must clarify it with him before she leaves.

Guisu was now willing to talk to her, maybe…

maybe he would change his mind.

“After all, I did cure your hand, didn’t I?” she tried using the favor card, seeming like, she always used this method, even she almost started to despise herself for it.

“So, your kindness in treating my hand all this time, was it so that one day you could use it as a condition to make me forgive Dongfang Jin.”

He was originally in a good mood, but in this moment, his face turned completely dark.

How had he never considered this point?

“Guisu, I didn’t…”

“I can forgive him, as if repaying your favor.” Guisu suddenly stood up.

“Go to Bei Miao with peace of mind, I’ve forgotten about the three-month agreement.” This time, he walked away without turning back.

As he left, his presence was distinctly cold.

Left behind, Baili Xia watched his receding figure, her face full of bewilderment.

This person…gets angry all of a sudden, his temper so strange, really hard to fathom.

However, at least he agreed not to pursue Jin any further.
