Chapter 2035

“I…”

If it were usual times, Mu Xiaoyao would definitely chase after her without a second thought.

But for some reason, it felt different today than it did in the past.

If he chases after her now, Xiaxia… she would truly become his.

Looking at Mu Xiaojiu, he pressed his thin lips together, wishing Uncle would say something at this moment.

He doesn’t like difficult situations, and now, Uncle and Xiaxia’s relationship makes him feel troubled.

Yet, Mu Xiaojiu just looked at him coldly, seeming to blame him for his irresponsibility.

With a firm grip, Mu Xiaoyao retracted his gaze, and casually said, “I’ll go see her.” He put down his chopsticks and stood up to leave.

Once Mu Xiaoyao left, the tense atmosphere in the dining room suddenly eased.

Everyone exchanged glances, not knowing what to say.

Mu Xuri and Wen Yu achieved their goal and said no more, just encouraging everyone to eat more.

Zimo wanted to go check on Baili Xia, but was stopped by Mu Lingchuan.

In Mu Lingchuan’s view, he still considered Baili Xia and Mu Xiaoyao a couple.

Earlier, Xiaoyao let others decide his marriage in front of everyone, which, from a man’s standpoint, indeed seemed a bit irresponsible.

However, this younger brother of his is inexperienced in emotions and love, and being a bit awkward during his first time with a girl is nothing to worry about.

Such matters, of course, can only be resolved by those involved.

It’s best for outsiders not to interfere.

Ning Anran still secretly observed Mu Xiaojiu, but unfortunately, Mr. Xiaojiu’s always cold and hard face didn’t reveal any problems.

She couldn’t help but be puzzled.

Baili Xia actually agreed to finalize the engagement banquet on her own initiative, and even reproached Mu Xiaoyao for his lack of enthusiasm.

She thought Baili Xia had regained her memory, but now it seemed she hadn’t.

Could it be that after losing her memory, Baili Xia really fell for Mu Xiaoyao?

Though Mr. Xiaojiu’s presence is unrivaled, Mu Xiaoyao is indeed a unique individual.

It’s incredibly easy for a girl to fall for him.

Could Baili Xia truly be in love with him?

…

Baili Xia hadn’t gone far.

By the time Mu Xiaoyao caught up, she was still lingering in the front yard.

Upon catching up with her, Mu Xiaoyao didn’t say anything.

He took her backpack from her hand and headed straight to the parking lot.

It seemed to have become a habit; at moments like these, Baili Xia always quietly followed behind him.

However, this time, the car that was driven out was Baili Xia’s.

“Is the car Brother gave me considered a token of love?” Baili Xia didn’t refuse this time and sat directly in the driver’s seat.

Mu Xiaoyao seemed momentarily stunned: “You remembered?”

Baili Xia’s fingertips felt cold as she held the steering wheel.

When she turned to look at him, her eyes were filled with a sweet smile.

“How could I forget every little moment with Brother?”

She didn’t say more; she unlocked the car, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the car out of the garage using somewhat unfamiliar techniques.

She didn’t speak, and Mu Xiaoyao didn’t ask further.

He has never been one to talk much.

But as the car drove on the mountain road, Baili Xia suddenly asked, “Brother, will you regret marrying me?”

Having already closed his eyes to rest, Mu Xiaoyao slowly opened his starry eyes, glancing at her cheeks: “How about you?”

“I won’t regret it.” She replied without hesitation.

Mu Xiaoyao lightly pressed his thin lips, stared at her for a moment, then closed his eyes again.

“As long as you don’t regret it, that’s enough.”

Whatever she wishes to do, he’ll accompany her.
