Chapter 1642

This is the beach where Mu Xiaojiu was injured before.

They had come here a few times, but since the last assassination attempt, they haven’t returned.

Baili Xia developed a shadow over this place, truly afraid that those assassins would appear again.

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t respond immediately, easing the car into the parking lot.

After parking, he finally spoke, “Of course, I’m taking you out to eat.”

Getting out of the car, he saw Baili Xia still dazed inside, so Mu Xiaojiu walked over and opened the passenger door.

“What are you daydreaming about?”

“I, I’m worried…”

“Worried about what?” Mu Xiaojiu looked at Baili Xia, slightly startled, “Worried that someone will try to assassinate me again?”

Her concern was pointed out by him, and Baili Xia nodded lightly.

“Silly, it’s absolutely safe here now, come on.”

Saying this, Mu Xiaojiu lightly ruffled Baili Xia’s hair.

Seeing how certain he sounded, Baili Xia reluctantly got out of the car and followed him toward the yacht.

“Aren’t we going to eat? Why are we getting on the yacht?”

Seeing Mu Xiaojiu heading for the yacht’s entrance, Baili Xia was somewhat puzzled.

Mu Xiaojiu glanced at her without answering and continued walking ahead.

Though he didn’t answer, others soon gave her the answer.

“Good day, Mr.

Mu.”

“Good day, Mr.

Mu.”

Every staff member at the yacht entrance stopped to bow and greet Mu Xiaojiu.

Once they passed through the entrance and fully boarded the yacht, reaching the deck, Baili Xia was utterly shocked by the scene before her.

On this giant yacht, the entire floor was a restaurant.

The outdoor deck restaurant was connected to the indoor one, and its scale was large enough to accommodate thousands dining at once.

It was Baili Xia’s first time on such a yacht restaurant, and it left a significant impression on her.

A familiar figure hurriedly walked down from the yacht’s cabin restaurant.

“Mr. Xiaojiu, Miss Xiaxia.” Ye Hua was the first to greet them.

“The restaurant has been cleared; we aren’t hosting other guests tonight.”

Mu Xiaojiu just nodded indifferently and continued walking into the cabin.

After taking a few steps without hearing Baili Xia behind him, he turned to look.

Baili Xia was still standing in place, staring blankly at Ye Hua.

Did he just say “we”?

“This restaurant…” Finally, she couldn’t hold back her curiosity and asked.

“Miss Xiaxia, this restaurant was just bought by Mr. Xiaojiu. What’s wrong with you?”

To Ye Hua, Mr.

Xiaojiu owning a restaurant like this shouldn’t be surprising at all.

However, what Ye Hua said next left her even more at a loss.

“Oh, I was wrong. It should be said that the yacht was just bought by Mr. Xiaojiu.”

After speaking, he glanced sideways at Mu Xiaojiu.

As if to say, Mr.

Xiaojiu, how was that flattery?

Mu Xiaojiu just glared at him, then walked over to take Baili Xia’s hand.

“Come on, let’s go inside.”

Baili Xia nodded woodenly, following him into the cabin.

Her shock wasn’t because Mu Xiaojiu bought the restaurant or yacht, but because she thought of the old man.

Uncle is already so wealthy and powerful, why is he still unwilling to let the old man go?

The more she realized how powerful Uncle was, the more she worried about the old man.

She could only think of one outcome: the old man would lose.

If she could persuade the old man to give up everything in the Mu family, would Uncle spare him?
