Chapter 1637

Now, get out of the Mu family…

Baili Xia looked at the old man, her eyes brimming with tears.

Grandpa, does it really have to be this way?

“I haven’t harmed you, nor will I do anything in the Mu family. I just want to occasionally give you acupuncture, take care of you, is that not okay? Grandpa?”

Suddenly, her legs gave way, and she knelt down with a thud.

Mu Xiaoyao’s heart tightened, wanting to help her up.

Baili Xia gently pushed him away, her gaze still fixated on the side of the old man’s cold, determined face.

“I promise not to do anything. Anything you don’t like, I won’t do at all. I just wish to take care of you. Is that okay?”

Feng Gang turned his face away, unable to bear the tears in her eyes.

The old man remained cold, glaring at her fiercely: “If you stay, you’ll end up killing me!”

“I won’t, I won’t do anything, I really won’t.”

She shook her head forcefully, making a firm promise.

She truly would do nothing, wouldn’t investigate Uncle, wouldn’t do anything dangerous.

Isn’t that okay?

She just wanted to stay, to be by his side, ready to take care of him when needed.

To be the first to treat him if he…

unfortunately falls victim to others.

She’s worried, truly worried, Grandpa, please, let her stay…

“Looks like you want me to call the police.” The old man glared at Feng Gang.

“What are you waiting for?

Call the police!”

“I’ll go!

I’ll leave right away!” Baili Xia stood up abruptly, no longer kneeling.

Her gaze toward the old man instantly turned cold and hard.

“I had good intentions, yet you see it as malicious! I’ll leave, as I can’t stay in this family.”

She took Mu Xiaoyao’s hand, turning to leave.

If Grandpa insists on her leaving, then she’ll leave.

The issue shouldn’t be blown out of proportion; it would surely affect the Mu Group.

With Grandpa set on his decision, she could only follow through with it.

Grandpa, take care, you must guard against Ning Anran, you must!

Mu Xiaoyao, led by her, could still feel her unrest along the way.

The small hand holding his larger one was full of cold sweat in the chill of winter.

Behind them, Feng Gang caught up.

Just as Baili Xia thought the old man might change his mind, she heard Feng Gang’s even colder voice.

“The old master wants me to watch you pack up, move out now!”

…

Baili Xia only packed for a little while in her room before quickly heading out with a suitcase.

Mu Xiaoyao was waiting outside for her, seemingly having no objection to her moving out.

He had no objection, probably, Uncle didn’t either.

Brother would definitely report such matters to Uncle…

Baili Xia gathered herself, not wanting to think about these unnecessary things anymore.

Mu Xiaoyao took the suitcase from her, and as the two walked out, someone chased after them.

Seeing Zimo’s face slightly flushed from running, Baili Xia panicked.

She turned back quickly to meet him: “Why are you running? You’re not allowed to run like this in the future!”

Zimo, however, didn’t mind, only looking at her slightly pale face.

“Sir Mu…

really wants to drive you away?

He’s wronging you!”

“It’s okay, I’m not part of the Mu family anyway; sooner or later, I’d leave.”

“Then I’ll leave with you, I’m not part of this family either!”

Zimo looked angry, having no fondness for staying in this family anyway.

“Wait for me, I’ll go back and pack my things now.” She turned, ready to head back.

Baili Xia quickly grabbed her wrist: “No, you have to stay.”
