Chapter 1785

Nangong Xu smiled faintly and said, “Probably tomorrow afternoon.”

Baili Xia finally felt relieved, looked at Xiaoxiao, and said softly, “Xiaoxiao, I’ll come to pick you up tomorrow afternoon.”

Zimo also spoke up, “Let’s head out now. You should get some rest.”

After Xiaoxiao gently nodded, the two of them got up, bid farewell to Nangong Xu, and left the medical room.

Just outside the medical room, Mu Lingchuan hurried over and reached out to support Zimo.

Baili Xia smiled gently; Brother’s care for Zimo was too obvious.

Even though she’s pregnant, she doesn’t need support just to walk.

But such affection is indeed enviable.

If Brother could treat her like that in the future, it would be very blissful.

“Zimo, you and Brother should head back and get plenty of rest,” Baili Xia said softly.

Though Zimo felt a bit reluctant, she still followed Mu Lingchuan back.

If she didn’t leave, Mu Lingchuan would insist she go.

Recently, she hardly had any personal freedom; Mr.

Mu the CEO had taken a break, and it seemed like he had nothing better to do.

Watching over her day in and day out, even Zimo started to feel uncomfortable.

Honestly, being watched all day, who would feel comfortable?

After seeing Zimo off, Baili Xia suddenly felt hungry.

Unknowingly, it was already past eight.

She dragged her weary legs back to the main house of Sihai Residence.

Upon arriving at the hall, a maid ran up to her.

“Miss Xiaxia, you haven’t eaten yet, right? Mr. Xiaojiu had me leave some food for you.”

Baili Xia felt a slight warmth in her heart, surprised that Uncle had thought of her missing dinner.

She had planned to return to her room and settle for some instant noodles or something similar.

Following the maid to sit down in the side room and seeing the table full of hot dishes, she was deeply shocked.

There was no way she could eat all this alone.

These weren’t leftover scraps; Uncle had specially arranged for this many dishes for her.

With each bite, warmth filled her heart.

Baili Xia took her time to eat this meal and felt full.

Such warmth was something even Lu An had never given her before.

Since childhood, she was a child lacking fatherly love.

Even her foster mother He Xinjie, because of Lu An, always thought of Lu Xuening first.

No one truly cared for her, worried for her, or loved her.

Uncle…

a person with no relation by blood, yet simply because of her relationship with Brother, treated her so well.

She is truly fortunate to have such an uncle.

After finishing the sumptuous dinner, Baili Xia stood up and unconsciously rubbed her stomach.

With her stomach so full, she couldn’t go straight to bed.

After thinking it over, Baili Xia decided to stroll around in the backyard.

She’d been there earlier today, so the place was relatively familiar.

Most importantly, it had plenty of fitness facilities, perfect for a little exercise to aid digestion.

Leaving the hall, Baili Xia headed straight for the backyard.

Unexpectedly, upon reaching the backyard, she saw a familiar figure exercising there.

“Brother,” Baili Xia called out happily.

Mu Xiaoyao turned his head, saw Baili Xia, and immediately jumped down from the horizontal bar, slowly walking towards her.

“What are you doing here?” he asked lightly.

“If I said I ate too much, would you believe me?” Baili Xia laughed.

Mu Xiaoyao was slightly startled, staring at Baili Xia for a while before nodding, “I believe it.”

This girl’s personality has become a lot more cheerful compared to before.

Even the faint trace of worry between her brows when she first came to the Mu family was gone.
