Chapter 1896: Capítulo 1896: Chapter 1899

Just the two of us, what if that sort of thing… inexplicably happens again?

Baili Xia glared at Wu Ming, “It’s very late, you should go back. I’m going to sleep.”

“You sleep, I won’t bother you,” Wu Ming leaned back in the chair.

That lazy demeanor made it clear he wasn’t leaving tonight.

“I’m not used to having a man in my room.”

“Aren’t there often men in your room?” Wu Ming sneered, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

“…” Why is it suddenly hard to refute that?

But, this situation really isn’t appropriate.

Wu Ming didn’t speak, and Baili Xia was at a loss for words.

Because of what happened earlier, the atmosphere in the room was extremely awkward.

After who knows how long, Baili Xia reiterated, “I really need to sleep now, could you please…”

“I told you, I’m here to protect you,” Wu Ming interrupted her offhandedly.

“This is Bi Luo Pavilion, it’s Brother You’s place, very safe.”

There’s no need for him to guard her like this.

Doesn’t he know that himself? Is he deliberately making things difficult for her tonight?

“What are you so upset about? Did the Bei Family upset you during dinner?”

But, if they upset him, why take it out on her? How unjust!

Wu Ming did not answer the question, instead dismissively saying, “Bei Tianyou’s place can’t even protect himself.”

“You…” Baili Xia was furious, going in circles and still stuck on this anger.

“Brother You is my…” She bit her lip.

Wu Ming stared at her face, his dark eyes narrowed, “He’s yours?”

“I didn’t mean it like that, I mean, he’s… he’s my brother.”

Baili Xia was confused too; does Wu Ming really not know about her relationship with Bei Tianyou?

If he doesn’t know, she can’t exactly talk about it casually everywhere.

This matter must be kept secret within the Bei Family.

It’s not that she doesn’t trust Wu Ming, but the less trouble, the better.

“No need to say more, tonight I’ll sleep here, so you don’t have any chance to cheat with those men.”

He stood up and stared at where she was sitting, “Are you sleeping on the bed or the sofa?”

“Of course, the bed,” without even thinking, “but…”

“Even if Bei Tianyou doesn’t come, there’ll be those Guisu types. Do you want to betray Mu Xiaoyao?”

Wu Ming was tired of pointless talk, a belly full of anger, part wrath, part temptation.

If they keep going at it, believe it or not, he’ll take her right then and there?

Baili Xia smacked her forehead, so there’s also a Guisu now!

This guy!

“Do you want me to swear, that I will never do anything to betray Brother, or else, may I be hit by a car if I leave…”

“Shut up!” Wu Ming’s expression changed, immediately interrupting her.

Is this kind of vow something you can make so casually?

How could she not betray Xiaoyao? She… is his woman! Sooner or later she’ll betray Xiaoyao.

No, this has nothing to do with Mu Xiaoyao at all.

Wu Ming was sulking, and probably, the guy outside the door was sulking too.

He had his reasons for not leaving, but this girl…

“Forget it, I’ll go next door, call me if you need anything.”

He finally stood up and walked towards the door.

Baili Xia, who had already walked to the bed, was stunned.

Turning back to see his decisive departing back, she was bewildered.

It’s not that she was reluctant to see him go, wanting him to stay.

But… how did he suddenly become so agreeable?

Then what was the argument about just now?

What a bizarre train of thought.
