Chapter 1989

Mu Xiaojiu was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

He really didn’t expect that such a big move would happen in Jin City shortly after the third brother’s arrival.

But since today he chose to step down, the future head of the Mu Group would be Mu Xuri, and he would no longer involve himself in the operations.

There was a calmness in his eyes, completely devoid of any emotion.

The reporters understood that this project was driven by Mu Xuri.

They were all amazed that Mu Xuri could make such a big move right after taking over the Mu Group.

Starting today, the era of Mr. Xiaojiu at Mu Corporation is considered over.

…

Waking up in the morning, Baili Xia realized Mu Xiaojiu was already gone.

Last night, she was really scared, scared that this man would force her again like he did the previous morning.

Fortunately, nothing happened in the end.

This man is truly terrifying; the impact he brought as he roamed over her now made her legs feel somewhat sore and weak, even after a day and a night.

Getting up from the bed, Baili Xia washed up and left the room.

She wanted to find Mu Xiaoyao to ask if he discovered any clues later.

She suddenly remembered at his door that she and Mu Xiaoyao were no longer lovers.

No matter if she’ll stay with Uncle in the future, at least she’s no longer in that kind of relationship with Brother.

Under the same roof, sleeping with another man, is there still a possibility between her and Xiaoyao?

Suppressing a hint of bitterness in her heart, she gathered her thoughts before knocking on Mu Xiaoyao’s door.

But there was no one in his room, no idea where he went so early.

Descending the stairs, a maid saw her.

The maid immediately went into the side hall and brought out breakfast.

“Miss Xiaxia, Mr. Xiaojiu ordered this to be left for you.”

Baili Xia’s eyes flashed with something, instructing the maid to put the plate on the coffee table, then slowly went over to eat.

After finishing the meal, she hurriedly went to the medical room.

Uncle said he asked Ye Hua to come to the medical room to sleep.

Baili Xia felt a bit guilty; she originally promised him to go back for rest, but in the end, he returned.

Arriving at the medical room, she pushed the door open.

Baili Xia saw Ye Hua was gently wiping Xiaoxiao’s face.

Perhaps because he was too focused, he didn’t notice Baili Xia, and his hands didn’t stop at all.

That cautious movement was as if he was afraid of waking Xiaoxiao.

The heartwarming scene shook Baili Xia’s inner self intensely.

Ye Hua might feel guilty towards Xiaoxiao, but more so, he had developed feelings for her.

Whether someone truly cares for another can be seen in these details.

Ye Hua, for such a man, despite the bickering with Xiaoxiao, the care he provided was always meticulous.

Xiaoxiao, it’s a pity that you’re in an accident now, unable to see these.

Baili Xia walked towards Ye Hua; when she got closer, Ye Hua heard her voice.

“Miss Xiaxia, you’re here.”

Baili Xia nodded and asked, “How is Xiaoxiao?”

The disappointment in Ye Hua’s eyes was so evident, he shook his head without speaking.

Continuing to gently wipe Xiaoxiao, after tidying Xiaoxiao completely, he picked up the towel and basin.

“Miss Xiaxia, wait for me a moment, I’ll be back soon.”

After Baili Xia nodded, he walked out.

Baili Xia reached out and smoothed Xiaoxiao’s disheveled strands of hair on her forehead, calmly looking at her.

“Xiaoxiao, you must wake up quickly.”

“Wake up and see Brother Ye Hua; he really treats you well.”
