Be Gentle, My Master
Chapter 194: Behave Don't Move 07_1
Mu Ziying was staring intently at Baili Xia, trying to decipher something from her expression.
However, Baili Xia wasn’t giving anything away, she didn’t even glance at Brother.
Her demeanor was nothing like that of a girl in love.
What exactly was the nature of their relationship?
Over breakfast, there was some discussion about Baili Xia’s charity event today.
In reality, only the old man, Mu Ziying, and Baili Xia were talking.
Mu Lingchuan had no interest in these types of small events and wouldn’t be in attendance.
As for Mu Xiaoyao, the old man instructed him to look after Baili Xia today.
Look after…these two words didn’t bother him as much as usual, perhaps because he was in a good mood today.
Baili Xia had to leave for school after breakfast to prepare for the charity sale.
Mu Ziying didn’t have any classes today, but she decided to go to school as well, just to chat with Baili Xia a bit more.
While Mu Xiaoyao was fetching the car, Mu Ziying pulled Baili Xia aside.
“Last night…did you really…do that with Brother?”
She put her two fingers tip to tip, tapping them together.
Her mischievous gaze fixated on Baili Xia.
Baili Xia blinked at her: “What do you mean?”
“Don’t play dumb with me.
You know perfectly well what I mean.”
Mu Ziying covered her mouth and giggled slyly.
“Huh?” Baili Xia was confused.
But seeing Mu Ziying’s laughter, she suddenly understood.
“You all…behaved so oddly just now.
Could it be that you thought Brother and I…that we…”
“Isn’t it true?
The whole Mu family has heard that Brother ‘slept’ with you last night!”
Mu Ziying shot her a glance.
Thinking that Baili Xia was playing coy, she curled her lip.
“I specifically came over here because of these rumors.
A housemaid saw Brother leave your room this morning.”
At those words, Baili Xia’s face instantly flushed red.
Then as quickly as it blushed, it turned pale.
What about Uncle?
Did everyone in the Mu family know?
Did Uncle also hear about it?
Did he know Brother had stayed in her room last night?
Did Uncle also jump to conclusions like everyone else?
Baili Xia didn’t understand why she was feeling so anxious, her heart was inexplicably unsettled.
How would Uncle see her now, knowing this?
Wouldn’t he think she and Brother were together, just like everyone else?
But nothing happened between her and Brother.
She started to feel sleepy while giving Brother a leg massage last night.
She didn’t know when she fell asleep.
When she woke up the next morning, Brother was sleeping next to her.
Maybe even Mu Xiaoyao didn’t know how it happened.
As soon as he woke up, he promptly rolled off the bed and left her room as quickly as possible.
Brother truly detested her, the nature of their relationship hadn’t changed at all.
Would Uncle misunderstand?
But he told her to choose between his older brother and him.
Now that this had happened, he had no reason to be angry, right?
He didn’t care anyway!
Baili Xia was feeling confused and conflicted, her mind filled with thoughts she couldn’t quite understand.
She even forgot when she had gotten into the car with Mu Ziying.
“Xiaxia, what are you thinking about?” Mu Ziying waved her hand in front of her.
Baili Xia was shocked back to reality and loudly proclaimed without thinking: “I have no relationship with Brother!”
