Chapter 1374

Baili Xia was really afraid that even Tang Jixin would misunderstand, and quickly explained, “It’s really just to take care of Brother You. Brother You was just joking earlier, Madame Bei, please don’t misunderstand.”

Tang Jixin glanced at her, then looked at her son.

Bei Tianyou had to say softly, “It’s nothing, it’s indeed to take care of me. Mom, don’t overthink, Xiaxia is a good girl.”

Tang Jixin breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and prepared to leave.

But after taking a few steps, she couldn’t help but turn back and glance at Baili Xia.

Finally, her gaze fell on Bei Tianyou.

“Since… she’s a good girl, then keep her by your side. Don’t mind that nonsense about matching social status, that’ll ruin a lifetime of happiness.”

After saying this, she turned around and walked away.

Baili Xia was completely petrified there; this misunderstanding…

is really big.

Once everyone left, the living room quieted down again.

Early in the morning, there was such a commotion, both Baili Xia and Bei Tianyou felt a bit weary.

Seeing the tiredness on Bei Tianyou’s face, Baili Xia felt a bit heartache.

The news of Qin Yu’s injury yesterday had hit him hard, almost causing his health to falter again.

Although he hadn’t relapsed, his heart was clearly under too much strain, and his body had become much weaker.

“Brother You, you look very tired, why don’t you rest a bit more,” Baili Xia said softly.

Seeing him like this, those jokes earlier, Baili Xia decided to ignore and not dwell on them.

How can you argue with a patient?

The person who’s sick is the most important, right?

Bei Tianyou gently nodded, then shook his head.

“Can’t sleep.” His clear eyes met Baili Xia’s gaze, and he continued, “Unless…

you stay and keep me company.”

“…” Jokes, really addicted to making them!

Baili Xia originally intended to get up and leave, but seeing Bei Tianyou’s tired face, she decided to compromise.

“I’ll stay until you fall asleep, then I’ll leave.”

A joke is a joke, the most important thing is that he’s happy.

Earlier, she really did see him smile.

She was sure she wasn’t seeing things.

…

It was half an hour later when Bei Tianyou finally fell asleep.

When Baili Xia went out, her steps were especially light, afraid of waking him.

Once outside, she walked towards her room, planning to catch some sleep as well.

Spent the whole night leaning over, got up so early in the morning, definitely not enough rest.

She reached into her pocket, took out her phone, planning to check if there were any messages.

Only then did she realize the phone was out of battery.

Since returning yesterday, she hadn’t gone back to her room and didn’t bother to charge it.

Once she returned to her room, she immediately connected her phone to charge.

As soon as there was a bit of power, she turned on her phone.

The sound of incoming messages continued to ring, there were over a dozen.

Baili Xia quickly opened the messages to check, they were all from Mu Xiaoyao and Nangong Xu.

Mostly were missed call message alerts from last night, only Mu Xiaoyao sent a message this morning.

“Out handling matters, if anything comes up, contact me, I’ll return immediately.”

Looks like yesterday both Mu Xiaoyao and Nangong Xu tried to contact her, couldn’t find her, and called, but her phone was always off.

They probably later found out Baili Xia went to Bei Tianyou’s place, or they’d be frantically searching everywhere.

Thinking of this, Baili Xia’s lips curved into a slight smile.

These two guys are really nice to her, even get worried about her.

Putting down the phone, Baili Xia went to the bathroom to wash up, then returned to lie on the bed.

The events earlier flashed through her mind, ultimately deciding not to dwell on them.

Nangong Yun, that wicked woman, someday, she’ll be harshly dealt with!
