Chapter 1638

“Stay for what?” Zimo’s face was cold and hard.

Baili Xia just looked at her, not knowing how to respond.

The child in her belly was Mu Lingchuan’s.

With Mu Lingchuan here, Baili Xia believed, he could certainly treat Zimo well.

Zimo shouldn’t leave with her.

What she most hoped to see was for Mu Lingchuan and Zimo to get married.

That way, when the child arrives in the future, at least there would be a complete family.

Just like Uncle said.

Uncle…

her eyes dimmed, with a trace of sorrow passing through her gaze.

Ever since learning that Uncle and Ning Anran conspired to harm Grandpa, she had deliberately suppressed her feelings and avoided thinking about Uncle.

Every time she thought of him, her heart would ache.

It’s not that she chose Grandpa and abandoned Uncle; rather, she had no choice.

They were about to poison Grandpa!

Uncle wouldn’t lose; she knew he would never lose, yet Grandpa couldn’t be knocked down just like that.

She didn’t wish for anything other than to safeguard Grandpa’s life.

Wealth and glory, she didn’t care for them, nor did she want Grandpa to pursue them.

But with things like poisoning having already happened, at this moment, if Grandpa didn’t preserve his life, it could be lost at any time.

Zimo was initially filled with anger, but seeing Baili Xia just looking at her without speaking,

Suddenly, she seemed to have some realization.

Her fingers tightened, clasping Baili Xia’s hand back.

Zimo looked at her, trying hard to calm down: “Do you… really want me to stay?”

In fact, she didn’t understand these elite family struggles, seeing Baili Xia insist she stay, she simply thought, maybe Xiaxia still needed her to do something at the Mu family.

Baili Xia didn’t say much either; her willingness to stay was the best outcome.

In the struggle between Grandpa and Uncle, having two people on her side would at least lessen the impact.

One was Mu Xiaoyao, the other was Mu Lingchuan.

No matter what, she knew Uncle could target Mu Dongyu and Mu Haoguo but wouldn’t use them as pawns.

Zimo must always stay with Mu Lingchuan, otherwise, the child in her belly might really be lost.

Alone, this girl might truly lack the courage to want this child.

“Recently, stay close to Big Brother, don’t think too much, make sure to take good care of yourself, okay?”

Before leaving, she firmly held Zimo’s hand and said.

Zimo seriously nodded, still wondering if staying by Mu Lingchuan’s side would enable her to do something for Baili Xia.

Recently, the Mu family seemed restless; even as an outsider, she could clearly feel it.

Baili Xia ultimately left.

Mu Xiaoyao drove, personally taking her back to school.

However, upon getting in the car and seeing the packed luggage in the back, Baili Xia was somewhat surprised.

“Brother, this is…”

“As your fiancé, naturally, I should sleep with you every night.”

Mu Xiaoyao tossed the luggage into the trunk, “I’ll stay with you at school.”

Baili Xia bit her lip, looking at his figure, saying nothing, just feeling heartache.

She really wanted to go back to the past, to those simple times with Brother.

But now…

before things become clear, she dared not think of anything else.

Would Uncle come to see her tonight?

If Uncle came, what would she say to him?

Uncle…

didn’t want to leave him, yet feared Grandpa might have an accident, what should she do?

What should she do?

Mu Xiaoyao stepped on the accelerator.

The car left the Mu Mansion and soon vanished from sight.
