Chapter 1743

“Stop overthinking, I won’t force you anymore, no one will ever force you again, just stop thinking!”

Mu Xiaojiu’s large hand landed on Baili Xia’s head, pressing her head against his chest.

His fingertips gently rubbed over her temples: “Stop thinking, we won’t think about it anymore, be good, and it won’t hurt.”

Xiaoyao sat up on the bed, wanting to help, but didn’t know what he could do.

Seeing Baili Xia in pain, he suddenly remembered something and immediately shouted outside: “Ye Hua, call Nangong Xu over!”

A commotion ensued outside…

No longer trying to recall the past, gradually, Baili Xia’s condition stabilized, and her headache eased.

But when she looked up and saw Mu Xiaojiu, her expression changed immediately, instinctively pushing him away.

The wariness in her eyes was clear.

Seeing this, Mu Xiaojiu felt a blockage in his chest and had no choice but to step back a couple of steps, retreating to the side to avoid provoking her.

Soon, Ye Hua led Nangong Xu in.

“Master.” Seeing Nangong Xu, Baili Xia inexplicably felt much more at ease.

Mu Xiaoyao immediately stood up, giving up his spot.

“What happened earlier?” Nangong Xu asked as he sat down next to Baili Xia.

Mu Xiaoyao replied, “She was trying to recall past events, and suddenly her head started hurting.”

“Master, I think I remembered two people, but I really can’t recall their faces.” Baili Xia explained along.

Nangong Xu gently nodded, his voice softening.

“Don’t panic, let me take a look first.”

He raised his hand to touch her forehead and checked her eyes.

After finishing those, he extended his hand to check Baili Xia’s pulse, listening quietly.

After nearly ten seconds, he withdrew his hand, his gaze drifting toward Mu Xiaojiu, saying flatly: “There’s nothing wrong.”

A reassuring look finally eased Mu Xiaojiu’s worried heart.

“Then why does she have a headache?” he asked.

Just seeing Baili Xia in such pain earlier, he inexplicably panicked.

He was really afraid Lu Xuening had tampered with something dreadful in her head.

However, Nangong Xu had previously conducted a detailed examination, even a CT scan, and found nothing wrong with her.

Mu Xiaojiu felt his nerves had been too tense these past few days, causing him to start imagining things.

Nangong Xu looked at him, then glanced at Baili Xia, hesitating to speak.

Obviously, there were some things he couldn’t say in front of the girl.

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t press further, looking at Baili Xia with a soft voice: “Don’t overthink, just get some rest.”

Baili Xia gently nodded and lay back down on the bed.

Despite wanting to know who those two people were, she was genuinely scared.

That splitting headache earlier, she didn’t dare try recalling it again.

Baili Xia also realized that the less she thought about past events, the lighter her head felt.

Whatever, if she doesn’t remember, she doesn’t remember, maybe they aren’t related at all.

Once Baili Xia lay down, Xiaoyao looked at Mu Xiaojiu and said faintly, “Let her rest well tonight.”

Mu Xiaojiu was startled, understanding Xiaoyao’s implication.

With him there, the girl couldn’t sleep soundly.

Her resistance to him still existed, and it couldn’t be changed overnight.

Finally, Mu Xiaojiu nodded and left with Nangong Xu.

However, they didn’t leave.

They went into the adjacent room, leaving the door open to be able to react promptly to Baili Xia’s situation.

So if anything happens over there, they can respond immediately.
