Chapter 1275

Baili Xia opened her eyes and glanced at Mu Xiaoyao.

Although his voice could provide her some reassurance, the fear in her eyes didn’t fade in the slightest.

Mu Xiaoyao felt a bit helpless—he really hadn’t seen anyone as scared of flying as this little girl.

Then again, he didn’t often have the chance to take flights with her either.

He adjusted his seat so that the two seats were next to each other.

Mu Xiaoyao reached out with his right arm, pulling Baili Xia directly into his embrace.

His left hand gently lifted, patting her back softly.

“We’ll be there soon. Don’t be scared.”

Leaning into Mu Xiaoyao’s chest and listening to his comforting words, Baili Xia finally started to relax a little.

She was just about to nod in response when Mu Xiaoyao’s soft voice came again.

“It’s fine. Even if the plane crashes, we can parachute out.”

Baili Xia almost fainted on the spot!

This was supposed to be comforting?

What does he mean by “even if the plane crashes”?

Her brother’s words only made her more terrified.

Does he even know how to comfort someone?!

…

The plane flew for about four hours and finally landed safely.

During the landing, Baili Xia couldn’t help but feel her heart race all over again.

Throughout the flight, Baili Xia couldn’t stop worrying about whether the plane would crash and kept asking how to use a parachute.

No matter what, she just couldn’t shake off her fear completely.

She didn’t even take a moment to enjoy the luxury of the first-class reclining seats.

Once the plane finally touched down, the weight on her chest was lifted.

As soon as they stepped off the plane, a luxury van Mu Xiaoyao had arranged ahead of time pulled up.

Even after getting in the car and driving for a while, Baili Xia’s face still looked a little pale.

Mu Xiaoyao noticed but didn’t know how to comfort her.

Earlier on the plane, one careless comment of his had caused her to worry for the entire flight.

He didn’t want to scare her anymore.

But seeing her still pale complexion stirred a trace of guilt in him.

What could he say to make her feel better in such a moment?

Jewelry?

Luxury cars?

Designer handbags?

But it seemed this girl had very particular tastes—things most girls liked, she didn’t care for at all.

Not knowing what else to say, he blurted out casually, “I heard there’s a lot of great food in Bei Miao. We can check it out later.”

Sure enough, hearing about food instantly piqued Baili Xia’s interest.

“Really?

What kind of food do they have there?”

“What’s the local flavor like?”

“Is there some kind of food street where we can try everything at once?”

“When are we going, Brother?

Can we go today?”

…

Women are such foodies.

Once you talk about food, they just go on and on.

With her attention diverted, Baili Xia’s face gradually regained its color.

The distance from the helicopter landing pad to the Bei Family’s estate wasn’t far—about a twenty-minute drive.

When the car stopped in front of the Bei Family’s grand entrance, they grabbed their luggage and were just about to approach the door when Fan Yi rushed out to greet them.

“Mr.

Mu Xiaoyao, Mr.

Nangong…”

He hesitated briefly before finally addressing her, “Miss Xiaxia.”

After all, they were all guests here, especially since they had come with Mr.

Nangong to treat the young master’s illness.

Fan Yi decided—moving forward, he would also treat her as a valued guest.

Though he truly disliked how these young women always tried to find opportunities to get close to the young master…

But this Miss Baili Xia was someone the young master cared about.

So, for now, he would assume she had no ulterior motives toward the young master.
