Chapter 2056

“An Ran came to find me because of this matter. She came to remind me to be wary of rumors. Unexpectedly, I ended up in an accident, causing her to be reprimanded by Uncle.”

Baili Xia spoke very casually, her gaze sincere, not showing a hint of falseness.

“By the way, how is An Ran now? Is she feeling better?”

“She’s fine, quite well.”

When Baili Xia mentioned Ning Anran, Wen Yu suddenly recalled the scene tonight when Ning Anran, wearing light clothes, walked into the study.

She wondered what Mu Xuri and Ning Anran talked about after she left.

Words that even Ning Anran can hear, but she had to be driven out.

Since when did Mu Xuri and Ning Anran become so close?

Seeing her appear lost in thought again, Baili Xia smiled lightly, appearing entirely at ease.

“Although I don’t know why, I don’t quite like Ning Anran’s personality now, but I’m still grateful that she came to remind me about the rumors.”

“It’s just that she probably misunderstood. Uncle has always treated Xiaoyao and me very well, very lovingly. That’s a fact.”

Wen Yu nodded, not saying anything.

However, how could Ning Anran genuinely remind her? Most likely, it’s because she feels indignant and wants to provoke.

This girl actually thinks Ning Anran genuinely came to remind her. Could it be she truly can’t recall her relationship with Jiu, nor Ning Anran’s intentions for Jiu?

Looking at Baili Xia, Baili Xia’s eyes remained clear, without much complexity in them.

Having observed people for so many years, at this moment, she couldn’t tell whether she was genuine or not.

In comparison, Ning Anran is more straightforward, with impure intentions evident at first glance.

After a moment of silence, Wen Yu managed a gentle smile.

“That’s good. A girl’s reputation is still very important. Take good care of it.”

After a pause, she suddenly asked, “Your third uncle arranged for you and Xiaoyao to get engaged. Do you have any objections?”

Her gaze was fixed on Baili Xia’s face, not allowing a trace of change to escape her eyes.

But Baili Xia remained as calm as before, her eyes clear, with a slight smile.

“This plan was made a long time ago. If it weren’t for my incident, we might have been engaged already.”

“I’m grateful that Third Uncle helped us finalize it.”

Wen Yu nodded, saying nothing more.

Perhaps, she was overthinking it, and the matter wasn’t that complicated after all.

After chatting with Baili Xia for a while, Wen Yu didn’t want to continue walking down the back mountain.

The two walked down together, Baili Xia escorted her back to the main house, then returned to Sihai Residence herself.

Watching her departing figure, Wen Yu felt a lingering doubt.

She stood at the doorway for a long time until Baili Xia’s silhouette disappeared, then turned and entered the hall.

Unexpectedly, just as she entered, she saw Ning Anran coming out of Mu Xuri’s room.

It was the bedroom, not the study!

For some reason, seeing their conversation venue change made Wen Yu feel uncomfortable.

“Weren’t you talking in the study?” She approached, retaining her gentle smile.

Seeing Wen Yu, Ning Anran’s face turned slightly red.

Her bright eyes flickered, finally calming down as she smiled and approached her.

“Mrs. Wen.”

“I was asking you.” Wen Yu’s smile faded somewhat, and her gaze shifted past Ning Anran to the door of the room in the distance.

Being so far, the person behind the door naturally couldn’t hear.

Wen Yu then asked, “Weren’t you in the study before?”
