Baili Xia didn’t speak, just frowned in thought.

What kind of man can remain unchanged for decades, not even willing to step half a foot outside the gate?

In the entire Bei Family, who isn’t eager to please the old master and the old madam?

Yet, Mr.

Feng Jin doesn’t even attend such an important banquet as their grand birthday celebration.

To be so detached from worldly affairs is truly rare.

In today’s society, there still exists such a recluse.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you to see other places.” Tao suddenly said.

“Alright.” With one last look at Jin Ye Pavilion, Baili Xia retracted her gaze and nodded.

In the Bei Family, no matter what you’re interested in, you must not show too much.

This was taught to her by Brother and her master.

At most, you can show a slight interest, but you must never ask too much about anything.

Tao drove the sightseeing car along another path back.

“Aren’t we going to the back mountain?” Baili Xia asked.

“It’s too far, I’m afraid we won’t make it in time, sorry Miss Xiaxia.”

Tao smiled a bit shyly, “The madam will wake up after three, I need to go back to attend to her.”

Baili Xia nodded, not saying much more.

After the car traveled a short distance, Tao pointed to a courtyard and said, “That courtyard belongs to the third Miss, and Miss Yun also lives there.”

Thinking for a moment, Tao couldn’t help but remind, “Miss Xiaxia, in the future, try to take the east road if there’s nothing, as all roads lead to the back mountain anyway.”

“Afraid I’ll run into Nangong Yun and get into another fight?” Baili Xia chuckled.

This Tao, she is quite considerate.

Tao could only smile, not daring to say more.

Running into her wouldn’t be good, if it can be avoided, it’s best to avoid it.

Baili Xia didn’t want to make it difficult for her, so she just said, “Okay, I understand.”

…

To avoid raising suspicions, after riding the sightseeing car back with Tao, Baili Xia returned quietly to Bi Luo Pavilion.

Unexpectedly, she ran into Bei Tianyou, who had just returned, in the courtyard in front of Bi Luo Pavilion’s hall.

Running back and forth between the main house and Bi Luo Pavilion every day, doesn’t it get tiring?

The life of rich people, Baili Xia still doesn’t understand, having too many and too big of living places, instead of enjoyment, in her view, it’s just suffering.

However, Bei Tianyou, upon seeing her, took the initiative to greet her: “I was just looking for you.”

“Does Mr. Bei have something for me?” Baili Xia nodded slightly, stepping back half a step.

There was a feeling of wanting to maintain a safe distance.

Bei Tianyou frowned slightly, initially wondering if it was his illusion, but ever since that incident with Nangong Yun, this girl had indeed been distant towards him.

Once or twice, he could attribute to being overly suspicious, but every time was like this, it clearly indicated a real problem.

“Mr. Bei?” He looked down at her, his words carrying a bit more weight.

Baili Xia just smiled, not answering, and still asked, “Is there something?”

Seeing her like this, Bei Tianyou didn’t pursue further, only saying, “For tonight’s banquet, I thought you might have trouble finding a suitable gown in time, so I’ve brought you a few to try on.”

He turned, taking the lead towards the hall, “If they don’t fit, I’ll immediately have someone alter them for you.”

Fan Yi glanced at her, not sure what he was thinking, but it seemed there was a hint of reproach.

But he said nothing, just silently followed behind Bei Tianyou.

So, it turned out he specially came to bring dresses for her; if he hadn’t mentioned it, Baili Xia wouldn’t have thought of it herself.

In this regard, Mr.

Bei is at least considerate of her.
