Chapter 1715

Once I promised the girl, I would make sure her grandfather lived well in prison.

But after just a few days, the man was gone.

If the girl finds out, what would happen to her?

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t dare to imagine.

Mu Xiaojiu felt somewhat downcast, unwilling to say more, he was the first to walk out.

Just as he reached the courtyard of the detention center, suddenly, a familiar figure ran in from outside.

“It’s… Miss Xiaxia.” Ye Hua’s voice was trembling slightly.

Mu Xiaojiu and Mu Xiaoyao also saw her, their pupils immediately dimmed.

Baili Xia also saw them, her heart gave a slight start, she quickly ran towards them.

She hadn’t slept well the entire night, constantly having nightmares.

When she woke up in the morning, she found that Mu Xiaojiu was no longer in bed, and she immediately became uneasy.

After tidying up, she decided to visit the detention center to check on her grandfather.

“Miss Xiaxia, you… why are you here?”

Mu Xiaojiu and Mu Xiaoyao pressed their lips together, discussing this situation fell naturally on Ye Hua.

But this time, even Ye Hua, this jack-of-all-trades assistant, felt immense pressure.

Baili Yang had died, and Miss Xiaxia would eventually find out about it.

They could hide it for a while, but not forever, what to do?

Seeing all three of them here at the same time, Baili Xia was shocked.

An indescribable feeling flashed in her heart.

This feeling was unspeakably uncomfortable.

“Why are you here, is it… did something happen to Grandpa?”

Although Mu Xiaojiu had promised that her grandfather could live his final years in peace in prison.

However, she knew that Mu Xiaojiu’s resentment towards her grandfather hadn’t completely dissipated even now.

In such circumstances, how could he kindly come to visit her grandfather?

Mu Xiaojiu remained silent, just quietly watching her.

His cold lips pressed into an inscrutable melancholy.

As for Mu Xiaoyao, he lowered his gaze, long lashes casting thick shadows on his eyelids.

These two people preferred silence to lies.

Why exactly were they here?

And what about Grandpa?

What happened to Grandpa?

Baili Xia turned to walk inside.

Ye Hua immediately blocked her path, anxiously saying, “Miss Xiaxia, today…

today is inconvenient, please go back and come another day.”

“Why is it inconvenient?

What happened to my grandfather?”

Mu Xiaoyao had previously arranged for her to be able to see Baili Yang anytime she wished.

What exactly was happening today?

“Miss Xiaxia, in short… some things, today is not convenient.”

Ye Hua didn’t budge an inch, continuously blocking her path.

“Miss Xiaxia, let me take you back first, and I’ll bring you back another day, how about that?”

His forehead was beginning to sweat, even in this cold winter day.

Indeed, deceiving Baili Xia like this, weighed heavily on his conscience.

However, the more he obstructed, the more panic Baili Xia felt.

She felt that something bad must have happened.

Especially with those nightmares one after another last night…

“What on earth have you been hiding from me? Stop lying to me!”

Though she said this towards Ye Hua, it was clear who it was really addressed to.

Always deceiving her, always using her.

Even now, what else do they want to lie about?

Suddenly, a tall figure walked up to her.

Mu Xiaojiu gripped her wrist, staring into her panicked eyes, his tone cold.

“I can take you to see him, but you’d best be psychologically prepared.”

After pressing his lips together, he slowly said, “Your grandfather… has passed away.”
