Chapter 146: Uncle I'll Behave Myself 19_1

Seeing Baili Xia crying so desolately, Mu Xiaojiu’s heart softened immediately.

The big hand clasping her wrists quickly withdrew, lifting her up, holding her in his embrace.

The large hand gently patted her back as if he was holding his daughter.

He coaxed softly, “Don’t cry, Uncle was wrong.

Uncle will try not to be harsh in the future, alright?

Please stop crying.”

For some reason, seeing her in this state, there was a slight ache in his heart.

Perhaps this is how women are, not needing comfort until someone offers it.

Once comforted, they become utterly vulnerable.

So, the more Uncle comforted her, the harder she cried, her small fists hitting him incessantly.

Eventually, she collapsed in his arms from exhaustion, sobbing quietly.

Mu Xiaojiu held her on his lap, cradling her, wiping her tears from time to time with his robe sleeve.

Only when she finally stopped crying did he attempt to converse with her.

“What happened?

Tell Uncle who bullied you.”

“I don’t want you to interfere.” She turned away, still sulking.

“Then, tell me why you called me dirty?

I’ve showered tonight, I’m not dirty at all.”

Baili Xia blinked, momentarily amused by his words.

Wanting to laugh but unable to, crying, but no longer in the mood for it.

This man, with just a few words, had her crying and laughing at the same time.

Couldn’t he understand?

When she called him dirty, it didn’t mean that he hadn’t showered.

She turned away again, not wanting to face him.

She understood many things but simply refused to confront them.

A man like him, ay such good looks.

He possesses status, wealth, and handsomeness.

Even if he does not seek women, there are countless who voluntarily throw themselves at him.

Yet, she simply cannot accept he has other women.

Every time she thought about how he had been inside her, only to enter others as well, she felt so disgusted she couldn’t bear to look at him.

“Speak, where did I dirty?” Mu Xiaojiu frowned.

“You…

you touch me, and touch other women, isn’t that dirty enough?”

Baili Xia pushed him again, trying to climb off his lap.

Even after she had made her point, he still pretended to be deaf and dumb, what was the point?

Mu Xiaojiu pulled her back, turning her face back by force, looking at her with utmost seriousness.

“You said I touched other women, be clear.

I am not afraid to admit what I have done, but accusations I have not are completely intolerable.”

“Me slander you?” Baili Xia looked up at him, feeling wronged again.

“Just now… you were undressing!

If I had been a bit slower, would you have…

would you have been rolling on this bed with that woman?

And…

and you still have the nerve to say you’re not dirty.”

Mu Xiaojiu looked at her, his facial expression weird.

He remained silent.

Baili Xia took it as an admission, and in an instant, she felt both anger and despair.

“Uncle, I know you’re capable, and I know I have no right to stop you from being with others.

But I can’t handle it.

Every time I think about it, I feel nauseous.

She truly felt disgusted, and dirty.

“Uncle, please let me go.

I’m begging you.”

She pushed him again but couldn’t move him.

Frustrated, she punched his chest.

“I said I’d pay you back, but I beg you not to touch me again, I can’t handle it!

I won’t share a man with other women.”
