Chapter 1254

Staring at her face filled with unease, Mu Xiaojiu’s expression remained completely unreadable.

The wind on the mountainside swept past, lifting her untied long hair.

Strands of hair curled around her fair neck, making it appear even more delicate, with a beauty that was indescribable.

Mu Xiaojiu’s large hand landed on her shoulder and, with a sudden but measured push, she lost her footing.

Baili Xia had no strength left to resist.

He pushed her forward, forcing her onto the protruding rock.

Pressed tightly against her from behind was his body, firm and unyielding like steel!

“Uncle!” Not again!

Baili Xia’s heart trembled uncontrollably, and truthfully, a trace of anger burned within her now.

Mu Xiaojiu ignored her protests, using the unrelenting strength of his body to pin her down, leaving her without a single chance of escape.

With one hand, he swept her long hair aside, fully exposing her soft, tender neck to his gaze.

Baili Xia’s small hands rested on the rock in front of her, no longer struggling as her gaze gradually took in her surroundings.

A terrain full of jagged rocks stretched out before her, with a deep pit ahead and the unknown lurking behind.

Surrounded by towering stone walls, the place was a hidden enclave offering a perfect cover, allowing them to observe the outside world.

From the outside, it would be almost impossible to notice that anyone was here.

This kind of place…

her heart quivered, a wave of panic rushing over her!

This place was even more secluded than the dense forest behind Imperial College, stirring an even deeper flush on her face and ears.

Because its secrecy was at least tenfold.

In other words, no matter what happened here today, there was little chance… anyone would discover it.

That bastard of an uncle!

“Don’t move!” Baili Xia had just begun to resist when the man’s hoarse voice rang out behind her.

She wasn’t listening—she wanted to struggle, to no longer play the obedient girl.

He never behaved, so why was it always her who had to follow his rules?

“Move again, and I’ll tear off your pants and take you right here!” His voice dropped, even rougher.

Baili Xia sucked in a sharp breath, feeling his body wound tight like a coiled spring, ready to snap.

His body pressing into her back was harder than the stone in front of her!

Her delicate fingers curled slightly, subconsciously gripping the rock beneath her tighter.

She wanted to turn her head to catch a glimpse, but her body was restrained too fiercely—she couldn’t see his face, only his imposing presence looming over her.

Maybe if she stayed still, perfectly still, he would let her go this time?

But based on all the times before, when had he ever truly let her go?

In the end, hadn’t he always taken everything, leaving her stripped bare of defenses?

When had he ever cared about how she felt?

The man behind her had no interest in deciphering what thoughts ran through her head.

After pushing her hair aside, he lowered his head, his teeth grazing lightly against her neck.

What began as soft and restrained soon escalated, his heavier breaths syncing with the increasing pressure of his bites.

“Mmh…” Baili Xia finally couldn’t hold back, raising her head and letting out a faint whimper.

It didn’t hurt exactly, but it was that mix of slight pain and lingering numbness that was truly unbearable.

Her body, too familiar with him by now, seemed to understand what came next.

The moment his large palm pressed against her chest, she nearly surrendered entirely.

“I don’t like this.” Baili Xia finally spoke, only to realize her own voice had gone hoarse.

Swallowing hard, she looked toward the clear winter’s daylight outside, her delicate brows furrowing sharply beneath the grip of his sudden tightened fingers.

“Does my will really mean that little to you?”

At your call, dismissed at your whim—is that all I am to you?

“What gives you the right to treat me this way?”
