Chapter 1407

Following Mu Xiaojiu, Baili Xia occasionally glanced at his face.

Just a moment ago, she wanted to run away, but after he asked, “Where’s the gift?” she was completely lost.

Gift…

Oh no, she had been playing all day, how could she forget about the gift?

But in this backward village, without even a single supermarket, where could she go to get a gift for him?

“Can I… give it to you tomorrow?” she asked softly.

“No!” he refused firmly.

“I just remembered, I left it in that room, maybe…

maybe tomorrow…”

“I’ll accompany you to get it now, then we’ll go up the mountain.”

“…” In the end, she murmured dejectedly, “I, I remembered again, it’s…

it’s on me, I’ll give it to you at midnight.”

“Good girl.”

…

The mountain top was vast, a large stretch of Snowfield Rosy Clouds blossoming bright under the moonlight.

In this season, flowers that can still bloom vibrantly are few in the world.

Yet, the vitality of these flowers is strong enough, even though the winds have started to rampage recently, they are able to bloom against the wind.

Baili Xia was originally full of melancholy, but after reaching the top and seeing this sea of flowers, her mood improved.

“I’m going to give you the gift!” Finally, she thought of what she could give.

She stretched out her palm in front of him, smiling cheekily, “Lend me your mobile phone.”

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t know what she wanted to do, fortunately, the phone was still with him.

Without hesitation, he took out the phone from his pocket and handed it to her.

Baili Xia continued to gaze at his cold, lonely face, “I want to be alone over there for a while, you can’t follow me.”

“No way.” What if she slipped away, would he sleep under the stars with her here tonight “naked”?

“I won’t run away, I’m not that childish,” Baili Xia pouted and couldn’t help but complain, “You have the heart of a petty person.”

“What did you say?” he lowered his voice.

Baili Xia immediately shook her head, “N-nothing, I said… I said you look very handsome tonight, super handsome!”

Holding his phone, she immediately turned and ran.

She didn’t run out of his sight, though the distance was considerable.

Baili Xia ran about a hundred meters away before stopping.

Taking several deep breaths to calm her breathing, she then sat in the sea of flowers and opened her palm.

Uncle’s phone…

Now looking at Mu Xiaojiu’s phone, she suddenly realized she was holding the phone of Jin City’s most valuable man.

How many secrets belonging to the owner could this phone hold?

Surely quite a few business secrets!

But Uncle handed her the phone without hesitation, even allowed her to run this far with it.

Uncle…

trusted her so much…

With an indescribable feeling of awe, Baili Xia checked, and sure enough, Uncle’s phone was turned off.

Every time he “runs away from home,” he would turn off the phone.

She hesitated for a moment before pressing the power button.

After all, Uncle had already given her the phone; it was too late to avoid suspicion now.

Given this, why worry about whether it’s off or on?

At this moment, she had control over the phone.

As a casual ringtone rang out, the phone fully powered on.

Just as Baili Xia expected, once the phone booted up, texts and missed calls flooded the screen.

They piled up densely, at first glance, it was almost terrifying!
