Chapter 2011

Really want to pull this girl over and ask her properly why she dislikes me so much.

Although I promised to give her ten days, that doesn’t mean the two of us should act like strangers for these ten days.

Am I someone this girl can just ignore?

If it weren’t for the fact she just woke up, right now, I would have already pulled her into my arms.

But, after ten days, no matter what, I’ll definitely bring her back into my embrace.

No matter how she resists, she won’t be allowed to escape!

“Now that you’ve recovered, rest well.”

Mu Xiaojiu said coldly and was about to leave.

Baili Xia could no longer hold it in, if she didn’t speak, Uncle probably wouldn’t take the initiative to ask her.

“Wait.”

Mu Xiaojiu halted immediately, turned around to re-examine the girl in front of him.

“Do you have something to say?”

At least she has some self-awareness, knowing that some things can’t be solved without talking to him!

If that’s the case, why still hide behind Xiaoyao?

He can turn his hand to cover the clouds and rain; why doesn’t she believe it?

“Yes, I do.” Baili Xia nodded, finally mustering the courage to speak.

“I fell down the stairs myself; it has nothing to do with Ning Anran.”

“Nothing to do with her?”

Mu Xiaojiu raised an eyebrow like a blade, his eyes tightly locked on Baili Xia’s face.

“You don’t hate her anymore? Want to clear her name?”

He didn’t mind, even if this had nothing to do with Ning Anran, he could take the opportunity to get rid of her.

The only reason he hadn’t dealt with those who troubled this girl was because they were related to Third Brother.

But now, this is an opportunity.

“I hate her, but this matter isn’t related to her, and I don’t want to wrongly accuse others.”

When Baili Xia looked at Mu Xiaojiu, the panic in her eyes lessened a bit.

But that hand was still gripping Mu Xiaoyao tightly, as if he was her dependence, her source of courage.

Mu Xiaojiu’s chest felt a bit blocked, his heart troubled.

If it weren’t for Mu Xiaoyao’s silent indication that this girl was still very weak, he would have already gone over to pull her back.

His patience was being honed by this girl!

“Understood, I’ll have someone take her to the main house.”

“Thank you, Uncle. Can I go see her now?” Baili Xia nodded and asked softly.

“No.” Mu Xiaojiu refused without a trace of hesitation.

Perhaps realizing his attitude was too harsh, he lightly coughed and said, “You just woke up, your body is weak. Go see her when you feel better.”

But Baili Xia was unwilling to give up: “I want to personally say sorry to her; she must have suffered a lot because of me.”

“I said, wait until you’re better to go.”

He was a bit puzzled about this girl, why had her attitude towards people changed since she hit her head?

It’s understandable to feel fear and panic towards him.

But why apologize to Ning Anran?

Although Ning Anran indeed suffered a lot, alright, but that was also because of him.

“I’m already fine now; I want to go see her now.”

Baili Xia insisted, even trying to pull Mu Xiaoyao’s hand to head out.

Mu Xiaojiu’s aura instantly turned cold, his long arm slightly raised, trying to block Baili Xia.

Seeing the situation wasn’t right, Mu Xiaoyao immediately spoke: “Uncle, if we accompany her, it should be fine.”

Mu Xiaojiu’s hand had already been raised mid-air, hesitated for a moment, and then lowered it again.

He stared into Baili Xia’s eyes, trying to see what she really wanted to do.

But in those bright black eyes, apart from slight panic, there was nothing else.
