Chapter 2078

When it came to whether she had regained her memory, Baili Xia didn’t say, and Dongfang Jin didn’t ask anymore.

The memory she lost wasn’t related to him, so it didn’t affect their interactions.

Besides, some things, the more you ask, the worse it might be.

Taking the chopsticks Baili Xia handed over, he casually started eating.

The dishes were all to his taste; this girl still remembered the foods he used to like.

Baili Xia just kept her head down, eating quietly. There was a saying: during meals, do not talk. Anything that needed to be said could wait until they were full.

The meal passed in silence.

As he put down his chopsticks, he glanced at Baili Xia’s face, which was more delicate and beautiful than before.

His heart was suddenly stirred, and Dongfang Jin’s thick brows furrowed slightly.

What exactly made Mu Xiaojiu decide to leave her?

He lifted his gaze, looking at Baili Xia.

“Are you going to get engaged to Mu Xiaoyao?”

This morning, when the Dongfang Family received the notification from the Mu Group, he still couldn’t believe the news.

If Mu Xiaojiu’s phone hadn’t been unreachable, he wouldn’t have come directly to the school to find Baili Xia.

Finally getting to the point, Baili Xia’s fingers slightly moved, but she didn’t lift her head.

“Yeah.” She casually responded, a complex look flashing briefly in her eyes.

“Have you really made up your mind?”

Only then did Baili Xia lift her head to look at Dongfang Jin, slightly displeased.

“Of course, Brother is very good to me.”

The subtle changes on her face didn’t escape Dongfang Jin’s eyes; at this moment, Dongfang Jin was truly puzzled.

Before coming, he thought maybe there were some unknown circumstances behind this matter.

At least he believed that Mu Xiaojiu would never let this girl marry someone else.

But now it seemed this matter was already set in stone, and Mu Xiaojiu was no longer an obstacle in this girl’s engagement.

“Have you really not remembered Mu Xiaojiu?” he asked again.

“Whether I remember or not doesn’t affect my marriage. I’ve decided to marry Brother.”

Baili Xia’s answer was ambiguous; she didn’t want to hide anything from Dongfang Jin.

But if she told him she had remembered the past, she was afraid he would worry even more about her.

Dongfang Jin’s eyes flickered, catching the subtlety in her words.

“Do you… still hate him?”

Baili Xia smiled slightly and asked in return, “Hate? Why would I hate Uncle? Did he do something to wrong me?”

She spoke lightly, her gaze clear, showing no trace of resentment towards Mu Xiaojiu.

Dongfang Jin was even more confused. If she didn’t hate Mu Xiaojiu, then why did she choose Mu Xiaoyao?

His face forced out a faint smile and said, “Nothing, just asking casually.”

Baili Xia smiled and said nothing.

Inwardly hesitant, Dongfang Jin wondered if he should tell this girl what he had found out.

He was still in Bei Miao last night and immediately rushed back after hearing about Baili Xia’s engagement.

Dongfang Jin believed that what he knew, Mu Xiaojiu would surely know as well.

He just didn’t understand why Mu Xiaojiu hadn’t told this girl about what he’d found out.

Even if she remembered the past, perhaps he could still retain her by his side.

But if Mu Xiaojiu chose not to tell, then Dongfang Jin couldn’t say either.

“He should have many things he wants to tell you. When you get the chance, you can talk to him.”

That’s all he could say on the matter.

Dongfang Jin had even thought about letting this girl return to his side.

But, knowing Mu Xiaojiu, there must be a reason for his decision.

Baili Xia nodded and said, “I’m staying at Sihai Residence.”

The implication being that if Uncle really had something to say to her, it would be very convenient to find her.
