Afraid of missing any news about Mr.

Bei, Mrs.

Chen only stayed in the secret room for a short while before going out to wait for information.

After Mrs.

Chen left, Baili Xia immediately started organizing her belongings again.

She didn’t know if she could successfully return to Bei Tianyou’s side this time, but even if she could, there would still be a tough battle to fight after she went back.

This time, it was very obvious that Sima Liuyue and Nangong Yun had joined forces to get rid of her and Guisu.

It’s likely that the Bei Family already somehow has plenty of evidence against her and Guisu.

If they want to frame someone, they can always find evidence.

They want to harm people and can produce as much evidence as needed.

Though Bei Tianyou would definitely be willing to believe her and Guisu, after going back, she would not only have to face Bei Tianyou.

In such a situation, would it be good to return to the Bei Family with Bei Tianyou after all?

Any slight mistake, and she could be walking into a trap.

But, no matter how big Bei Miao is, it’s filled with the Bei Family’s influence everywhere.

If she doesn’t go back to the Bei Family with Bei Tianyou, where else could she and Guisu go?

Baili Xia was lost in her thoughts and didn’t notice that the man sitting on the bed was staring at her face intently and had been watching for a very long time.

It wasn’t until she turned back that she met his deep eyes.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Baili Xia was startled by his gaze.

Why does it feel…

strange?

“Is the wound still very painful?

It must be painful, even if you cry out, I won’t laugh at you.”

“Why did she…

call you Miss Lu?” This question had been in his mind ever since he first saw Mrs.

Chen.

Miss Lu…

he thought there was only one, which was Lu Xuening.

Baili Xia was picked up by the Lu Family, and since he knew of her existence, her status there had always been equivalent to a servant’s.

Lu An was never good to her, and Lu Xuening treated her like a maid.

He really didn’t know that someone like her could also be called Miss Lu.

Miss Lu, it turns out, wasn’t just Lu Xuening…

Those vague memories from back then have become unclear by now.

The coat left behind by that little girl was also taken away.

Back then, it only remained in his head…

Baili Xia glanced back at him, then continued packing her things.

“In the Lu Family, when someone casually calls me Miss Lu, is there a problem?”

No…

problem, but still, Guisu’s heart felt like it had been pierced by something.

Something seemed to be on the verge of coming out.

But, it was still stuck, unable to emerge.

“Did you often come here when you were a child?” he asked again, his voice hoarse and almost inaudible.

Baili Xia didn’t think too much about it and didn’t see the need to hide these things.

So whatever Guisu asked, she answered accordingly.

“Lu Xuening had some master teaching her skills, and in winter, she needed someone to serve her, so I had to be the maid.”

“Sometimes I even had to skip my classes to look after her.

Fortunately, I’m not Lu An’s biological child, otherwise, it would have been stifling.”

She poured a cup of warm water and returned to him: “Here, drink some, but don’t drink too quickly.”

Guisu took it awkwardly, but his fingers were trembling the whole time.

Baili Xia immediately took the cup back and looked at his pale face, feeling a bit apologetic.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were in so much pain. Let me help you drink.”

With his face and hands trembling from the pain, she had no other options, there were no painkillers at hand.
