Chapter 1350

Feeling Wu Ming’s reassurance, Baili Xia finally calmed down again.

She didn’t know why, but every movement and even just a word from Wu Ming could convince her.

This feeling was really strange.

For so long, it seemed that only one person could make her this convinced.

Uncle…

Is it because Wu Ming works by Uncle’s side and has learned a similar style, so she trusts him in the same way?

Unsure of the exact reason, anyway, Baili Xia felt at ease.

Of course, if Wu Ming…

could control his body a little better, maybe she would feel even more at ease.

The little girl quieted down, and Wu Ming was also trying hard to suppress certain impulses of his own.

Although he still couldn’t control his body, at least his rationality returned.

After searching around the area, the assassins outside slowly moved away.

Their target wasn’t Baili Xia to begin with; they only knew that Bei Tianyou valued this girl highly.

Now that they couldn’t catch Bei Tianyou, they just wanted to take her back instead.

But if they really couldn’t capture her, it didn’t matter.

Everyone walked far away, and only when the footsteps completely disappeared did Baili Xia let out a long sigh of relief.

The man’s body was still pressing against her, stiff as a rock, making her blush.

Now that she wasn’t tense, she felt awkward again.

She shifted a bit, wanting to get out.

Suddenly, she felt a pain in her head—he actually hit her.

“What was that for?” Baili Xia frowned.

That slap wasn’t light at all; it hurt!

“Teaching you to seduce me.” Wu Ming muttered with a suppressed voice, helping her out of the stone crevice.

Once the space became slightly more spacious, he let her go and strode out first.

Baili Xia pouted and stared at his tall back.

She wanted to complain, but suddenly felt that this back…

looked so familiar.

But she didn’t get the chance to look too clearly, as Wu Ming had already stepped out of the crevice into the dense forest outside.

Baili Xia rubbed her sore head and slowly followed him out.

What did he mean by her seducing him?

Who seduced him?

Wasn’t it an accident just now?

Besides, he was the one who brought her to this place, into this stone crevice.

If anyone was seducing, it was him seducing her.

Baili Xia felt truly wronged, yet once out of the crevice, she saw that guy still showing his back to her.

His attitude clearly suggested it was her fault just now!

“The Bei Family’s people should arrive soon,” Wu Ming suddenly said from the front.

Baili Xia was taken aback, couldn’t help but ask, “How do you know?”

“Just a guess.” He wanted to turn back but reconsidered and refrained.

His body hadn’t fully recovered, but thankfully he was wise enough to first put the blame on her.

This way, at least the girl wouldn’t resist him.

He felt a bit helpless.

When interacting with her as Wu Ming, she could be so forgiving.

But, if it were Mu Xiaojiu…

in such a spontaneous situation as before, would she get furious again?

“Let’s go; I’ll lead you down the mountain.”

Leaving this statement behind, Wu Ming took a long stride, heading down the rugged path.

Baili Xia didn’t dare to say much.

Safety was not guaranteed yet, so for whatever Wu Ming said, she could only comply.

Following behind him all the way, she couldn’t shake the feeling that his back was overly familiar.

But thinking it over, she felt it was impossible.

If it were Uncle, in that situation earlier, after those people left, that scoundrel would definitely pester her.

He might even likely disregard her willingness and take her forcefully in the crevice.
