Chapter 1885: Capítulo 1885: Chapter 1888

Tang Jixin is a straightforward person. If she likes something, she likes it; if she doesn’t, she doesn’t.

Baili Xia noticed that sometimes she is even more simple and pure than a child.

At least, her thoughts are much more direct compared to those in the grand mansion.

Baili Xia walked towards Tang Jixin and reached out to hold her hand in hers.

“Lady Tang, are you feeling any better now?”

Tang Jixin shook her head, “No, it’s the same as always. When you get old, your health just deteriorates day by day.”

“Now, even my eyesight isn’t good anymore.”

Baili Xia looked at her perpetually pale face, a twinge of sadness passing through her.

She patted the back of her hand and comforted, “It’s okay. As long as you take good care of your health and exercise more, you’ll feel better.”

She felt a bit melancholic. Tang Jixin was only in her fifties, yet she appeared less healthy than the Old Madam.

She wondered if it was due to taking too many medications; the dark circles between her brows were getting worse.

Baili Xia also felt curious. How could no one in the Bei Family point out the issue of taking so much medication all these years?

Miao Domain is the most famous pharmaceutical company, yet they can’t even cure their own family. It’s not a good reputation.

“Does your headache still bother you?” Baili Xia asked.

“I still get headaches from time to time; it’s a chronic condition that’s hard to cure,” Tang Jixin said casually.

Baili Xia stood up, “Let me give you a massage.”

As she spoke, she walked behind Tang Jixin.

She placed her hands on her head and began to massage gently.

Baili Xia’s technique was excellent, her soft fingers applying just the right amount of pressure, bringing Tang Jixin quick relief.

After a while, she suddenly said softly, “I heard from the Old Madam that you’ve agreed to marry You. Are you back to arrange the engagement?”

Baili Xia’s cheeks warmed up a bit, “We can talk about that later. We’re still so young.”

It seemed Brother You hadn’t clarified things with the Old Madam, letting the misunderstanding persist?

She wasn’t sure what Bei Tianyou was thinking, but she didn’t have the energy to think about these issues for now.

Her own mind was a mess, not to mention there were many mysteries in the Bei Family yet to be unraveled.

Changing the subject, Baili Xia asked, “Lady Tang, do I really look like Bei Qingyou?”

“Yes, you two look like you’re carved from the same mold,” Tang Jixin said without hesitation.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes, glanced at Baili Xia, and her expression changed.

“In the Bei Family, don’t mention her again!”

Baili Xia stuck out her tongue, speaking softly, “Oh, it’s just that many people mistook me for her, and I really wanted to meet her.”

“Why meet her? She’s no longer here.”

A flicker of something passed through Tang Jixin’s eyes, clearly not wanting to continue this topic.

But Baili Xia didn’t want to give up so quickly, “It’s said her pharmaceutical skills were the best in the Bei Family. It’s such a pity she’s gone.”

Tang Jixin closed her eyes, just listening and not responding further.

Although Tang Jixin’s expression wasn’t pleasant, she didn’t stop Baili Xia from probing gently.

“If she were still alive, the Bei Family’s business might have developed even faster.”

“Even if she was alive, what’s the use? Just look at Fengjin,” Tang Jixin couldn’t help but comment.

“Fengjin? Mr. Fengjin?”

Tang Jixin realized she’d said too much and fell silent again.

The door was knocked twice, and Tao came in with a bowl of medicine.

“Madam, it’s time for your medicine.”
