Chapter 1561

The scene of being pressed against the floor-to-ceiling windows here flashed through her mind, and Baili Xia’s face turned even redder.

“…At night.” A voice so soft it was almost inaudible came from Baili Xia’s mouth.

As soon as she said it, Baili Xia was at a loss for words about what she had just said.

How did she become so pathetic, being threatened by him?

He was clearly just joking, yet she took the bait.

“Deal.” Having achieved his goal, Mu Xiaojiu spoke at the right moment.

He picked up the teacup and drank the tea in one gulp.

When he put down the teacup, his face had already returned to its usual cold solitude.

“I can only promise not to tell anyone for now, for three days.”

“Uncle…”

“No negotiation.” Three days was already the limit.

“He has the right to know, and don’t you think that once he knows, the matter can be resolved?”

When Mu Xiaojiu’s face is expressionless, he can easily give off an authoritative aura.

Baili Xia was startled; she understood this state of her uncle.

He definitely had something important to say.

Sure enough, Mu Xiaojiu met Baili Xia’s gaze and said calmly, “The child of the Mu family, I won’t allow him to be left outside.”

“Uncle, you promised me not to say anything…”

“I can only promise not to tell for now.” Before she could finish, Mu Xiaojiu raised his hand to stop her.

“You tell Mo to move into the Mu family, as long as she wants.”

“If she agrees, then I won’t bring this up for the time being.”

“What if… she doesn’t agree?” Baili Xia felt a slight tremble inside, knowing full well his iron will.

“Then she should be ready to marry Lingchuan immediately.”

Baili Xia’s heart skipped a beat, she was utterly shocked: “Uncle, they…”

“I trust you, which is why I also trust your friend.

Since I believe the child is the Mu family’s blood, either she gives birth and keeps the child at the Mu family, or she gets married immediately.”

“In any case, the child cannot leave the Mu family.” This was his conclusion.

Having said this, Baili Xia completely understood Mu Xiaojiu’s plan.

The child is always the Mu family’s blood, as long as the child is there, Mu Xiaojiu, as an elder, will not stand by and do nothing.

He needs Mo to move into the Mu family to ensure her safety.

She couldn’t help but pout and give him a glare.

Is being rich and powerful really that impressive?

The child belongs to the Mu family, but the child is also Mo’s; Mo has the right to take the child away.

But how could she doubt what Uncle said?

There was no chance to doubt.

As long as it is something Uncle decides, in the future, the child will definitely stay in the Mu family.

She also understood what Uncle said just now.

Because it’s her friend, Uncle is willing to believe this child is the Mu family’s blood.

If it were another woman, he would probably have to wait for the child to be born and do a paternity test before he would be willing to acknowledge it.

Families of great wealth truly handle things…

too coldly and ruthlessly at times.

However, it’s true that many women want to take advantage.

This kind of thing, perhaps, can’t entirely be blamed on Uncle.

Baili Xia still felt a bit uneasy.

Uncle doesn’t understand Mo’s temperament; asking Mo to move into the Mu family, she definitely won’t agree.

But Baili Xia knew this matter was Mu Xiaojiu’s bottom line, she had no choice.

Mo…

also had no choice, unless she wanted the matter to blow up.

“Alright, I’ll try to persuade Mo.”

Just unsure how to persuade her.

Is she really supposed to threaten to tell everyone?
