Chapter 1809

Nangong Xu nodded and said, “Once we’re in the room, let me know if anything happens, and I’ll come check on her.”

After speaking, he moved aside to fetch a wheelchair and handed it to Ye Hua.

Ye Hua took the wheelchair and positioned it accordingly.

Only then did he gently lift Xiaoxiao from the hospital bed and slowly place her in the wheelchair.

Baili Xia watched Ye Hua as he did all this, noticing that his careful demeanor was completely different from the way he had spoken to Xiaoxiao earlier.

She couldn’t help but tease him, “Brother Ye Hua, I didn’t expect you to be quite the caretaker.”

Ye Hua’s face turned a shade of red, and he awkwardly said, “Miss Xiaxia is teasing me; how would I know how to take care of people?”

Who would’ve thought that such a burly man like Ye Hua would be so thin-skinned?

Such a small joke made him so self-conscious.

Baili Xia chuckled softly, deciding not to tease him any further.

After bidding farewell to Nangong Xu, Ye Hua pushed Xiaoxiao, with Baili Xia following behind, as the three of them left the medical room and returned to the lobby.

They took the newly installed elevator upstairs and went directly to the room next to Baili Xia’s.

Ye Hua once again picked up Xiaoxiao and placed her on the bed, ensuring she was comfortable.

After completing these tasks, he looked at Baili Xia and said, “You can chat now; I’ll go handle some things.

Let me know when Miss Xiaxia is ready to leave, and I’ll come back.”

Once Ye Hua had left, Baili Xia suddenly looked at Xiaoxiao and said, “Brother Ye Hua takes great care of you.

I didn’t expect him to be such a considerate person.”

Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback but finally nodded in agreement, “Although his words aren’t always pleasant, he’s still very responsible.”

Though it was due to Mr.

Xiaojiu’s orders, Xiaoxiao was still grateful to Ye Hua.

People took the trouble to care for her for no reason at all, so she felt she owed him and promised to return the favor someday.

Baili Xia nodded and continued, “Everyone here is nice, except… that Mr. Xuri.”

At this point, a hint of concern suddenly crept into her heart.

Living in the Mu Mansion was convenient for the two of them, but it wasn’t all beneficial.

She advised, “You should be cautious around him in the future as well.”

“Mr. Xuri?” Xiaoxiao’s eyes showed a trace of confusion.

Although there had been reports about the Mu Group’s affairs in the media, most of them were quickly suppressed by Mu Xiaojiu to prevent the stock prices of Mu Corporation from plummeting.

As someone like Xiaoxiao who was just working a job, she wasn’t too interested in family disputes.

As long as she received her salary on time every month, she was satisfied.

So, Xiaoxiao didn’t immediately recall who Mr.

Xuri was.

“His name is Mu Xuri; he just recently returned. It’s said that he is now the one with real power in the Mu Group.” Baili Xia explained.

Xiaoxiao suddenly realized, no wonder there had been personnel changes in the company lately; this was the reason.

“What about him? Is he treating you poorly?” Xiaoxiao asked, her face showing concern.

“More than just poorly, it feels like he wants to eat me up; I don’t know what I did to offend him before.”

After saying this, Baili Xia smiled nonchalantly.

“But I’m just staying at the Sihai Residence; I won’t provoke him. Besides, with Uncle and Brother here, I should be fine.”

Xiaoxiao nodded, finally feeling relieved.

Mr.

Xiaojiu’s affection for Xiaxia wasn’t a facade; he genuinely doted on her.

With him protecting Xiaxia, she should be safe.

The two of them chatted in the room, and before they knew it, several hours had passed.

It wasn’t until lunchtime that if Ye Hua hadn’t come back to remind them, they would have forgotten.

Even so, Baili Xia didn’t go downstairs for lunch.

The two had Ye Hua bring their lunch to the room, and they ate there.
