Chapter 1538

“So outsiders only know that the most talented alchemist of the Bei Family was Bei Qingyou back then?” Baili Xia couldn’t help but ask.

Bei Tianyou nodded: “Actually, Aunt Qingyou has said that even she herself is not as good as Uncle Fengjin.”

“It was because of some events back then that he secluded himself and no longer showed his face, which also became a significant loss for the Bei Family.”

Baili Xia nodded heavily, finally understanding why Bei Fengjin and Bei Tianyou’s relationship was so close.

They were not just uncle and nephew, but also had a mentor-student bond.

Although Bei Tianyou didn’t say whether Bei Fengjin was better at alchemy than him, you could hear his admiration for his skills.

Bei Fengjin secluded himself here, but in fact, he also made a great contribution to the Bei Family.

At least, his successor, Bei Tianyou, used his alchemy skills for the Miao Domain’s undertakings.

“Brother You, I believe these things will eventually be resolved.” Baili Xia said firmly.

Bei Tianyou looked at the dim road ahead, nodding slightly.

Yes, many things are like this dim road, filled with unknown risks when walking.

But eventually, you will reach the destination.

Returning to the Bi Luo Pavilion, Baili Xia bid farewell to Bei Tianyou and went directly to her room.

As soon as she entered the room, Baili Xia saw Nangong Xu sitting on the sofa, sipping tea.

“Master.”

Baili Xia was full of embarrassment; she went out with Bei Tianyou and even forgot that she had previously notified Nangong Xu to come find her.

She had been out for so long, not knowing when Nangong Xu had arrived.

Nangong Xu ignored her, took a sip from his teacup, and placed it back on the coffee table.

Seeing that Nangong Xu was a bit unhappy, Baili Xia sat down across from him.

She reached for the teacup in front of him and poured the tea out into the tray.

“Don’t drink tea at night.”

Baili Xia certainly knew that Nangong Xu, as a doctor, was most concerned with health preservation.

He never had the habit of drinking tea at night, so it seemed he was really angry today.

“So late, where did you go? You didn’t even have your phone on.” Nangong Xu suddenly said in a low voice, his voice obviously filled with reproach.

Only then did Baili Xia realize that Nangong Xu was angry because she went out.

She quickly took out her phone and looked at it.

“Ah, when did it run out of battery?” She looked at Nangong Xu, full of embarrassment, “Sorry, I didn’t notice.”

She quickly stood up to get the charger, plugged in her phone, and then turned it on.

As soon as the phone turned on, several missed call alerts bombarded her.

They were all from around ten o’clock, and then there were no more later.

Baili Xia guessed that Wu Ming might have run into her and notified Nangong Xu.

Baili Xia stuck out her pink tongue, making an apologetic face at Nangong Xu.

“Master, forgive me, I’ll be more careful in the future.”

Nangong Xu gave a light hum, his expression softening a little.

“Do you know there are many dangers?

Notify us before going out in the future.”

Baili Xia nodded, earnestly saying, “Mm, I’ll definitely notify you in the future.”

After a pause, she suddenly thought of something and quickly said, “I have a flight back to Jin City tomorrow morning.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Baili Xia felt it was a redundant statement.

Bei Tianyou had already notified Uncle that she was going back, and Uncle would definitely immediately inform Nangong Xu and Wu Ming.

As expected, Nangong Xu heard Baili Xia’s words and didn’t seem surprised at all.

He just calmly looked at Baili Xia, lightly saying, “Have you really decided?”
