Chapter 2173

Mu Xiaojiu looked at Wen Yu, his expression still composed: “Don’t provoke him, and don’t leave the Mu family. You are temporarily safe.”

Wen Yu was still very uneasy: “What if he asks me to leave?”

Leaving the Mu family, everything becomes uncertain.

Wasn’t it Mu Xuri who arranged for her to go out before? As soon as she went out, she nearly got hit and killed.

“If you have to go out, give my people a heads-up.”

Mu Xiaojiu was worried about Baili Xia running away and had no mind to continue talking to Wen Yu.

“I know about your situation. Until I come up with a solution, don’t act recklessly.”

Wen Yu said nothing but was still uneasy at heart.

If she finds the person behind it for him, given Jiu’s character, he will surely ensure her peace for the rest of her life.

Jiu has always been someone who knows gratitude.

“Now, go back and rest well as if we never talked today.”

Staying in this room for a long time would inevitably raise suspicion.

At times like this, try to avoid unnecessary complications.

Moreover, Xiaxia just ran out with tears in her eyes…

The heroic sword-like eyebrows were tightly knit; he felt a bit worried about that girl.

Upon learning the truth about her grandfather’s death, how is she faring alone?

He didn’t want to waste too much time with Wen Yu here. After speaking, he took out his phone and dialed a number.

He spoke a few words to the person on the other end, then hung up.

Within a minute, the door to the study was knocked on.

Night Shadow strode in, arriving at Mu Xiaojiu’s desk.

“Mr. Xiaojiu.”

“Have the brothers in the main house keep a close eye and do their best to protect Mrs. Wen’s safety.”

“Yes.”

Night Shadow’s eyes flashed with surprise; he had no good impression of this woman.

What does it mean that Mr. Xiaojiu now wants to arrange protection for her in the main house?

But he didn’t dare to ask further about Mu Xiaojiu’s orders.

Wen Yu felt a few unaccountable moments of gratitude; Jiu wasn’t completely ignoring her safety.

Mu Xiaojiu looked at Wen Yu, his eyes completely devoid of patience.

“Anything else?”

“No, I’ll go back now.”

Wen Yu didn’t say much more; Jiu gave her a chance so she could temporarily be safe.

As long as she can really find something, there is hope for survival.

As for what Jiu said about not acting recklessly… she really can’t wait any longer.

Some things must be done.

“Jiu, thank you.”

She said to Mu Xiaojiu before following Night Shadow out.

Once the two of them left, Mu Xiaojiu immediately stood up.

He returned to his room, quickly tidied himself up, and immediately walked out the door.

…

Baili Xia left the study and headed to the backyard.

Her mind was in turmoil; she just wanted to find a place with no one around to cry.

Upon reaching the backyard, the tears at the corners of her eyes could no longer be stopped, falling down.

The backyard was full of brothers working out, and seeing Baili Xia like this, they stood there stunned.

For a moment, not knowing what to do.

Baili Xia didn’t want others to see her like this, so she immediately passed through the backyard, continuing towards the back mountain.

Soon, she arrived at the grassland where nighttime training usually took place in the back mountain.

She lay down on the ground, burying her head in the grass.

Tears like broken beads finally all spilled down, soaking the nearby grass.

Baili Xia could no longer hold back, soft sobs escaped her throat.

“Grandfather, I finally know how you passed.”

“This revenge, I must avenge for you.”

“No matter what, I won’t let him roam free.”
