“Since it’s an opportunity, it’s hard to say.”

Nangong Xu glanced at them and explained calmly.

“Maybe she heard some sound or had a dream. Let fate decide.”

“In any case, be prepared; she might wake up at any time.”

After speaking, he took out the needle packet and pulled out a silver needle.

“I’ll administer acupuncture again to increase the brain’s nerve activity.”

He wiped the silver needle clean with a cotton ball, and then deftly inserted more than a dozen needles into Xiaoxiao’s head.

“Master, when Xiaoxiao wakes up, will she forget the past?”

Because Baili Xia had lost her memory before, she was very worried about this possibility.

If Xiaoxiao also loses her memory, many precious memories would be lost.

She feared Xiaoxiao wouldn’t remember their friendship, feared she would forget Ye Hua, the man who cared so much for her.

More terrifying was the fear that Xiaoxiao might forget who pushed her off the cliff.

If she forgets, there is no way to catch the culprit, and Xiaoxiao might remain in danger.

“I’ve checked, and she shows no symptoms of memory loss.”

Baili Xia finally felt relieved, knowing that her master had confirmed it was fine.

She gazed at Xiaoxiao’s serene face and gently said, “Xiaoxiao, hurry and wake up, we’ve been waiting for so long.”

Nangong Xu glanced at her, a complexity flashing in his eyes.

While Xiaoxiao sleeps, nothing else matters.

But this young girl shoulders everything, investigating the culprit on Xiaoxiao’s behalf.

Not only that, in just over a year, under their watchful eyes, she has matured so much.

“You’ve arranged for so many people to guard the medical room. Are you worried something might happen tomorrow?”

Baili Xia nodded and said, “I’m worried that they might make a move during tomorrow’s wedding.”

After a pause, she looked at Ye Hua and said, “Tomorrow, you must stay here and not leave even for a moment.”

Ye Hua nodded firmly, knowing he would do it even without Baili Xia’s request.

With Xiaoxiao on the verge of waking, he couldn’t let all the effort be in vain.

After speaking with Nangong Xu and Ye Hua for a while, Baili Xia exited the medical room.

As soon as she arrived in the courtyard, she saw another person next to Yu Le.

The newcomer’s attire resembled Yu Le’s, also wearing a combat suit.

He was tall, possibly only a few centimeters shorter than Uncle.

His appearance was rugged and he seemed like a straightforward person.

Seeing Baili Xia, he greeted her.

“Miss Xiaxia.”

“Are you Captain Long Ting?”

“Yes, Miss Xiaxia, is there something you need?”

She didn’t expect that just after speaking with Yu Le, he would arrive so quickly.

It seemed that Uncle had surely spoken to them; otherwise, with their status, how could they listen to a young girl’s words?

“Let’s sit over there and talk.”

Baili Xia pointed to the stone table in the courtyard and walked over to sit down.

Long Ting and Yu Le exchanged a look and followed her.

The two men sat across from Baili Xia, quietly watching her.

The situation was urgent, so Baili Xia did not waste time and got straight to the point.

“Starting today, guests will begin entering the Mu Mansion.”

“I hope you can thoroughly vet each guest to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos.”

Long Ting spoke loudly, “This doesn’t require Miss Xiaxia’s reminder; we will rigorously check every person entering the Mu Mansion.”

He worked for Mu Xiaojiu, seasoned in combat, and would not overlook such matters.

“Also, your people must pay close attention to the guests inside the Mu Mansion. If anyone has ulterior motives, they must be dealt with promptly.”
