The burning pain on her face was unbearable. Ning Anran touched it and could clearly feel that her left cheek was much more swollen than usual.

“This slap is to teach you to control your mouth. Don’t falsely accuse people anymore.” Baili Xia stared at her, snorting coldly.

Ning Anran was truly scared; she could only nod timidly.

Baili Xia is a madwoman, daring to treat her like this.

When she gets back, she’ll definitely tell Mr. Xuri and have him help her seek justice.

“I won’t do it again, never again.”

Seeing Ning Anran like this, Baili Xia’s anger finally subsided a little.

She stood up, looked down at Ning Anran who was still sitting on the ground, and said coldly, “Get out and don’t come to Sihai Residence again.”

Although these words were harsh, right now they sounded like heavenly music.

Ning Anran quickly nodded and scrambled to her feet.

Not even glancing at Baili Xia, she immediately ran outside the courtyard.

She was really frightened, in case Baili Xia changed her mind.

After Ning Anran left, Baili Xia returned to the medical room.

Seeing the strange expressions on the faces of the two people in the room, she rolled her eyes.

“What’s up? Did I go too hard on her?”

Nangong Xu tugged at the corner of his mouth, shaking his head lightly.

“Never show mercy to the enemy.”

The action just now was nothing much.

If they gave Ning Anran a chance to retaliate, they might regret it later.

He didn’t explain it clearly, but Baili Xia understood.

“Master, was she eavesdropping outside just now?”

Nangong Xu adjusted his expression, speaking in a deep voice, “Yes, she probably overheard your conversation with Ye Hua.”

Baili Xia furrowed her brows, calculating in her mind.

If Ning Anran really heard her conversation with Ye Hua, that would be trouble.

They had speculated that the person who might act was that Tian.

Once they knew Xiaoxiao was waking up, they might take action against her.

“Ye Hua, from now on, I need you to stay by Xiaoxiao’s side at all times.”

“Alright.”

Ye Hua also realized the seriousness of the situation, his face becoming completely solemn.

“I’ll ask Ye Ying to send in a few more brothers.”

Baili Xia looked at Nangong Xu again: “Master, please keep an eye out here too. I’ll discuss with Uncle and see what to do.”

Once Nangong Xu nodded, she hurriedly left the medical room and returned to Sihai Residence.

…

Ning Anran cried and ran all the way back to the main house.

Her hand covered her face, afraid of others seeing what she looked like.

Though she hadn’t looked in a mirror, the burning pain and the high swelling were evident to her touch.

She knew that her face must look terrible now.

Even though her body hurt too, she couldn’t care less at the moment.

She just wanted to quickly show Mu Xuri her miserable state, so he could avenge her.

Seeing her in this state, the servants were astonished.

But as Ning Anran was Mr. Xuri’s favorite now, they dared not look too much.

Ning Anran rushed directly into the study without knocking.

“Mr…”

Her voice stopped abruptly, her gaze falling on the person opposite the desk, full of surprise.

Mu Xuri frowned, a hint of displeasure evident in his eyes.

“Why are you so rash, barging in without knocking?”

He then looked at Tian across from him and said, “Alright, go handle what I instructed you to do.”

“Yes, sir.” Tian stood up with utmost respect.

After speaking, she walked towards the door, saluting as she passed Ning Anran before stepping out.
