Chapter 2123

Baili Xia quickly turned around, facing in Mu Xiaojiu’s direction.

But the lights had just been turned off, it was dark there, and she couldn’t see anything.

Unexpectedly, as she turned, that large hand landed squarely on her chest.

“Uncle, your body is toxic, we can’t, we really can’t!” Baili Xia was so frightened she almost screamed.

This man’s past misdeeds are still vividly remembered!

But now, he really can’t act recklessly, not even in thoughts.

Doesn’t he know that impulsivity can also make the blood flow faster?

That hand paused, stopping there.

“Then when I recover from the toxins, will we be able to?”

Baili Xia was momentarily speechless. Once the toxins are cured, he indeed won’t have any physical issues.

However, saying she was his woman at the time was a matter of circumstance.

But now, he seems to be at ease, convinced that they are fine together.

Are men’s thoughts really different from women’s?

Can one sentence dismiss all that happened in the past?

“Uncle, it’s very late, you should rest.” She turned her face away, retreating slightly to prevent him from having the chance to touch her again.

Whether intentional or not, it shouldn’t happen.

Mu Xiaojiu’s eyes flashed with complexity, his hawk-like eyes firmly fixed on the trembling girl across from him.

But in this dark night, Baili Xia couldn’t see him.

Although the girl verbally promised to return to him, she still couldn’t forget those grudges.

He said lightly, “I just want to hold you.”

Baili Xia was engaged in an intense internal struggle, unsure whether she should go over.

If Uncle wanted to pull her over, it would be very easy.

But he didn’t, at least Uncle said he wouldn’t force her, so that should mean he won’t force her anymore.

“Without holding you, I can’t sleep, the toxins inside me…”

“Got it!” Baili Xia muttered her little mouth.

Always using this matter to threaten her, how can this man be so shameless?

Baili Xia’s body shifted a bit closer to Mu Xiaojiu, sensing Uncle also moving closer to her, soon they were right next to each other.

As if in great harmony, Baili Xia’s head gently lifted, and Mu Xiaojiu extended his right arm beneath her head.

Neither of them realized they had already done all this.

Baili Xia’s head rested on Mu Xiaojiu’s chest, the strong and powerful heartbeat sounded gradually, like enchanting musical notes.

Her little heart thumped crazily, even though Uncle promised he wouldn’t force her, the tension was unavoidable.

“Sleep.”

A soft voice came from above, sounding surprisingly gentle at this moment.

Baili Xia’s heart finally relaxed a bit, she slowly closed her eyes.

But lying in Uncle’s arms, she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what.

Soon, the steady sound of breathing reached her ears, Uncle was already asleep.

Baili Xia thought for a moment, planning to get up.

But as soon as she moved a bit, she felt Uncle move along with her.

That arm remained holding her, unwilling to relax even a bit, even in his sleep.

“Girl, don’t leave me.” A deep murmur escaped from Mu Xiaojiu’s lips.

Baili Xia’s body trembled suddenly, her heart instantly feeling a pang.

Uncle desired to keep her by his side even in his dreams, how much does he long for her return.

If that’s the case, why did he help Mu Xu*** make her leave back then?

Maybe, back in the beginning, everything had already reached a point of no return.

No matter what, she can’t stay by his side forever in the future.

She’s afraid, doesn’t want to, and has no right…
