Chapter 2041

Sure, here is the translation:

Actually, by now, it’s not just Mu Xiaoyao who’s tense and uneasy.

He entrusts his future to Baili Xia, and hasn’t she done the same?

In front of him, she directly admits that her memory has returned.

If Mu Xiaoyao betrays her, in the future, she might die in the Mu family.

Those people, when have they ever been lenient?

But she’s willing to trust him, just as he’s willing to trust her.

Mu Xiaoyao bows his head, cupping her face, his serious words full of tenderness and a plea.

“No matter what you want to do, I will stand behind you.” This is to compensate for the harm done to her in the past, as well as his own wish.

“I have only one request.”

“What?” Baili Xia’s dark eyes flicker, staring at his face, cold yet warm in its firm lines.

“Don’t hurt those who genuinely care about you.”

“Those… who want to harm me?”

“Then,” he bows his head and gently stamps a kiss on her forehead, “for every harm done to you, repay them tenfold!”

Baili Xia forcefully closes her eyes, burying her face in his chest.

“Brother, with this…” She sniffs, her voice raspy, a thick nasal sound lingering.

“I… will really fall for you.”

“Haven’t you already made up your mind to be my wife?”

Mu Xiaoyao raises an eyebrow, slightly displeased.

Baili Xia says nothing more, just holds him tightly.

Starting today, she won’t let her mind wander, won’t think about those irrelevant people.

She wants to earnestly fall for Brother, genuinely become his wife.

Mu Xiaoyao simply holds her silently.

Words spoken are lifelong promises. Once he says them out loud, he’ll definitely fulfill them.

From now on, whatever she wants, he’ll give her everything!

After a long while, Baili Xia finally lifts her head from his embrace.

Looking into his bright black eyes, she speaks seriously, “I am unsure about some things, but I trust what my grandfather said.”

She bites her lip, tightly clenching her palm: “I suspect even Uncle… has been deceived by Mu Xuri.”

…

In the afternoon, after school, Ning Anran walked alone on the path away from campus.

Ever since she used the Black Jade Continuation Cream Baili Xia gave her, she hadn’t expected the injuries on her arms and legs to miraculously heal.

At first, she thought Baili Xia certainly wouldn’t be kind enough to give her the real Bei family medicine.

But Mu Xuri told Ning Anran that this time Baili Xia wouldn’t deceive her, so she tried it.

With her wounds healed, saying farewell to crutches was much more convenient.

However, she wouldn’t be grateful to Baili Xia; she knew Baili Xia had her reasons for doing this.

She just wanted to show her in the Mu family, she could lead her by the nose anytime.

Once a friend, now so terrifying, so skillful…

Ning Anran sighed lightly; Baili Xia has become a villain.

In the future, this friend really can’t be kept.

Feeling gloomy, not quite wanting to return to the Mu family right away.

Today, Ning Anran surprisingly played at school for a while, planning to go home only after dark.

As she stepped out of campus, she saw, not far from the school gate, beside a tall off-road vehicle, a man standing like a tower.

Though it was dark, such an exceptional height still drew many students’ attention.

Seeing Ning Anran, Shentu Sheng’s face showed a slightly playful smile.
