Chapter 1562

No one knows what method Baili Xia used in the end.

Anyway, after work that day, Zimo still followed her back to the Mu family.

Luckily, they didn’t run into anyone when they returned.

Along the way, it was just the servants greeting them.

Ning Anran and the old man were both not there, making the Mu family house feel cold and desolate, with an indescribable sense of oppression.

However, when Baili Xia went downstairs to the kitchen to find something for Zimo to eat, she saw Mr.

Mu Dongyu coming out of the old man’s study.

Upon seeing Baili Xia, Mu Dongyu frowned deeply.

Baili Xia was still hesitating whether to go over and greet him, but unexpectedly, he had already approached.

“Why are you still here?” Mu Dongyu looked at her with eyes that no longer held any past flattery.

This time, his eyes were full of disdain, even impatience.

“Mu Group is in such chaos now, and you dare to come to our house and add to the trouble, you have some nerve.”

Baili Xia was stunned for a moment.

With such an attitude coming from him, it was indeed difficult to deal with.

She nodded slightly and turned to head towards the kitchen.

However, Mu Dongyu followed and said coldly to her back: “When are you leaving the Mu family?”

Mu Dongyu was now the most critical of her.

In the past, when the old man liked her, everything was easy to talk about.

The old man said to let her choose between Mu Lingchuan and Mu Xiaoyao, and he was happy.

After all, no matter who was chosen, they were his sons.

As long as the old man liked it, marrying her could even earn him some face and improve his standing in the old man’s eyes.

But now, the one the old man liked was Ning Anran, not this girl.

At this time, to still want Mu Xiaoyao to marry her was simply a waste of resources.

His son should at least marry a noble lady to help him build connections.

Not someone like her, who had no background and was completely useless.

Baili Xia pressed her lips, looking at the man blocking her way.

Was Mr.

Mu Dongyu trying to drive her away?

But whether or not to leave didn’t seem to be her decision anymore.

Uncle…

wouldn’t let her leave.

“Letting me stay is Mu… is Xiaoyao’s decision. Mr. Dongyu might as well discuss it with Xiaoyao,” she said.

“As long as he asks me to leave, I’ll move out immediately.”

She didn’t want to cause a rift between the father and son, but she couldn’t say it was Uncle’s decision—though, indeed, it was Uncle’s decision.

She didn’t know what Uncle wanted to do, but she knew that once he finished what he needed to do, everything would become clear.

Before his success, even if she had to suffer a bit of grievance, she could only listen to him.

Upon hearing this, Mu Dongyu’s face flushed with anger.

“Are you trying to drive a wedge between my son and me? I never expected a little girl to have such a vicious heart!”

He was so angry he gnashed his teeth, pointed his long finger at Baili Xia.

“Living here for free, causing trouble, do you have any shame left?”

Baili Xia really didn’t know what to say.

After all, he was a senior, and being Brother’s father.

As he pointed at her, she could only step back, or that finger would point right at her face.

Seeing her ignore him, Mu Dongyu became even more enraged.

“Get out! Get out of the Mu family at once! I won’t allow you to continue living here and seducing my son!”

Baili Xia turned to leave.

She didn’t want to endure such grievances.

If it weren’t for Uncle insisting she stay here, she would have left long ago.

The feeling of relying on others was not pleasant at all.

Didn’t that bastard know she would feel awkward too?
