Chapter 2016

Baili Xia looked at the scene outside the window, not feeling strange at all.

How could any girl resist such an outstanding man like Brother?

She turned her head to look at Mu Xiaoyao, with a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

Mu Xiaoyao smiled faintly and said, “Hurry up, you’re almost late.”

Baili Xia nodded and responded quietly.

Suddenly, she leaned over and gently kissed Mu Xiaoyao’s cheek.

Having done all this, she immediately pushed the car door open and ran out.

Mu Xiaoyao was left in a daze, as if he couldn’t comprehend what just happened.

That girl actually kissed him, what was going on?

Could it be that…she mistook him for her fiancé again?

After getting out of the car, Baili Xia inevitably faced the pointing fingers and gossip of those around her.

The moment she leaned over to kiss Mu Xiaoyao, some sharp-eyed students caught sight of it.

They immediately felt indignant in their hearts, this woman actually went to kiss Mu!

“Who is this shameless woman? How dare she try to seduce Mu!”

“Obviously not a good character. How could Mu possibly take a fancy to someone like her?”

Baili Xia completely ignored the cold sarcasm of others and quickly made her way into the school, disappearing into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

Along the way, she hummed a tune, looking as if she couldn’t be happier.

Let those gossiping old hags envy, be jealous, and hate; after all, they weren’t as lucky as she was.

Mu Xiaoyao stared blankly at Baili Xia’s figure until she was completely out of sight before coming back to his senses.

Feeling indescribably complex, he stepped on the gas pedal, and the car swiftly sped away from the scene.

As soon as Baili Xia stepped into the classroom, her classmates instantly noticed and crowded around her.

Currently, Baili Xia’s popularity in their class was absolutely unprecedentedly high.

Whether it was leading the team to achieve good results or protecting classmates from bullying, she had left a good impression on her peers.

Most importantly, the handsome guys had an exceptionally good relationship with Baili Xia.

They were all hoping that one day they could arrange another event to meet Mr. Xiaojiu, Mr. Dongfang Jin, and Mu, among others.

“Xiaxia, you finally came to school. I heard you took a leave because of an injury. What’s the matter? Are you okay now?”

Tan Xiao eagerly fired off a few questions first.

Before Baili Xia could answer, Deputy Monitor Ji Wei spoke up.

“Who bullied you? Tell me, and I’ll go deal with them.”

“Hmph… You want to be a knight in shining armor? You’re far from it.”

A chorus of sarcastic voices rang out, almost making Ji Wei want to hide under the table.

Seeing her classmates so enthusiastic warmed Baili Xia’s heart.

Anyway, back at school with classmates around, there would be much more fun.

In school, attending classes and participating in activities meant fewer troubles.

Ning Anran sat at the back of the classroom, watching the scenes unfolding at the front with resentment.

Baili Xia was the center of attention wherever she went, attracting Uncle and Mu Xiaoyao at the Mu family.

At school, even her classmates doted on her excessively.

Do these people have vision problems? What’s so good about her that everyone focuses on her!

Ning Anran was so caught up in resenting Baili Xia that she forgot about how her classmates had greeted her earlier.

It’s just that the greeting wasn’t as enthusiastic as it was towards Baili Xia.

Suddenly, someone asked, “You got hurt, and so did Ning Anran. Could it be that you both got injured together?”

Only then did everyone remember that Ning Anran was also injured and had only returned to school this morning, just like Baili Xia.

In an instant, all eyes turned towards Ning Anran.
