Chapter 165: Uncle I'll Behave Myself 38_1

Baili Xia recalled being slapped in school yesterday by Mu Xiaoyao’s guy.

The guy had just hit her, and he immediately kicked him away.

Baili Xia was beginning to understand Mu Xiaoyao’s temperament.

It was as if she was one of his people, whether she was family or not, at least, she came from the Mu family.

Because of this, he could bully her, but no one else could!

What a strange logic…

Seeing the vehicle getting further and further away, the dozens of strong men who were panting from moving trees finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They collapsed one by one, unable to get up anymore.

May they never encounter that devil again.

Only that man named Brother Bao, still harboring untold resentment in his eyes as he watched the departing vehicle.

…

Neither of them spoke a word during the drive, Mu Xiaoyao was focused on driving while Baili Xia’s gaze kept drifting towards the back of his hand.

Though the wounds weren’t big, they were still startling.

If those wounds were on the back of her own hand, she would probably be crying from the pain by now.

Tiny cuts crisscrossed the back of his hand, each filled with small wood splinters, the mere sight was enough to make her heart ache.

After the car stopped in the school parking lot, Baili Xia saw that Mu Xiaoyao’s hand was still bleeding profusely.

Unable to stand the sight, she finally spoke up.

“Brother, you should…

go to the medical room and get it treated.”

Mu Xiaoyao remained silent, as he was the first to step out of the car.

Seeing him get out of the car, Baili Xia didn’t think twice, she just unbuckled her seat belt, and after getting out of the car, she walked over to Mu Xiaoyao.

But before she could speak, Mu Xiaoyao calmly said, “Come with me to the apartment.”

To…

his apartment?

Upon hearing these three words, Baili Xia unconsciously stepped back.

All the scenes from the previous night, when they were alone in a room, flooded her mind.

She wanted to refuse, but her eyes accidentally fell on his injured hand, and she swallowed her refusal.

Seeing him already walking away, Baili Xia hesitated for a moment, then followed him.

Despite how terrifying Brother was last night.

But no matter what, he’s injured now, and she can’t let it be.

Besides, if he wanted to do something to her, he would have done it earlier, why wait till now?

Perhaps, he just wants her to go to his apartment to help him clean his wounds.

With these thoughts, Baili Xia shook her head, urging herself to stop overthinking.

She quickened her steps and caught up with Mu Xiaoyao.

As expected, once they entered his bachelor’s apartment, after Mu Xiaoyao told her where the first aid kit was, he sat down on the couch in the living room.

He shut his eyes, seemingly at peace and resting.

Baili Xia didn’t bother him, walked over to the drawer he pointed out, and took out the first aid kit.

She sat down next to Mu Xiaoyao and started removing the splinters from his hand.

Every splinter she pulled from his hand made Baili Xia break into a cold sweat.

Seeing the bunch of splinters sticking out, she unconsciously broke out in goosebumps.

“Brother, does it hurt when I pull with this much force?”

He was silent.

“If it hurts, you have to tell me.

I’ll try to be gentler.”

He still didn’t speak.

Frustrated, Baili Xia couldn’t help but mutter, “Brother, can you stop trying to be so cool?”
