Chapter 2217

“Do you know each other? Have you forgotten about the cooperation between Bei Miao and the Mu Group?”

Baili Xia understood. Although Mu Xuri had just returned to the Mu family not long ago, the Mu Group was now under his name.

Since there was cooperation, it wasn’t surprising they knew each other.

She turned her head to glance at Guisu, who had been silently sitting there, watching Baili Xia.

He hadn’t spoken from beginning to end.

“Guisu, how are you doing over there?”

Guisu glanced at Bei Tianyou and said lightly, “Alright.”

Though he said that, his voice didn’t sound very happy.

“He probably wanted to come back to be with you a long time ago,” Bei Tianyou chuckled.

Though Guisu followed him, and he had always treated him well, his heart was never with the Bei family.

But Bei Tianyou could understand; this girl and Guisu had been through life and death together. It was already not easy for him to stay by his side to protect her.

“If you need someone, let him come back.”

Guisu’s eyes narrowed. Although he followed Baili Xia’s arrangement to stay by Bei Tianyou’s side,

even when he returned this time, he held back from mentioning it, but his real desire was to come back.

He was actually nervous, his eyes fixed on Baili Xia, waiting for her answer.

“Not yet. Let him come back after Brother You’s competition is over.”

Even though he expected the answer, Guisu was still full of disappointment.

The aura around him was not hidden, and the chill leaked out.

Baili Xia sensed his displeasure and immediately comforted him, “Don’t worry, after things here are settled in a while, I’ll go to Bei Miao to find you all.”

She genuinely had this thought and wasn’t lying.

She had planned to go to Bei Miao to find her family and investigate Bei Qingyou’s matters properly once her great revenge was fulfilled.

Guisu snorted softly and said no more.

Bei Tianyou glanced at him and said to Baili Xia, “When I came this time, I found that the security at the Mu Mansion is particularly tight. Is there something going on?”

“There’s nothing much. There are just too many important guests at this wedding, and Uncle is just ensuring everyone’s safety.”

A hint of doubt flashed in Bei Tianyou’s eyes, showing some skepticism about this explanation.

The level of security at the Mu Mansion now was entirely beyond the normal range.

Given his observational skills, he could easily see the issues in this.

But Baili Xia didn’t say, maybe it was something within the Mu Mansion, and it wasn’t convenient for outsiders to know.

“If you really need someone, just tell me.”

“Although Bei Miao is a bit far from Jin City, I have some friends in Jin City.”

Though he didn’t state it explicitly, Baili Xia could guess that he probably had some influence in Jin City.

These were all for business development, just like Uncle had his influence in the Miao Domain.

Baili Xia gently shook her head, “No need, Uncle is here, and he’ll take care of anything that comes up.”

Bei Tianyou nodded and said nothing more.

Unknowingly, nearly two hours had passed, and Bei Tianyou checked the time; it was time to go back.

He knew that Baili Xia would be very busy the next morning and didn’t want to stay any longer to interfere with her rest.

“We should get going. You get some rest early.”

Bei Tianyou stood up and looked at Guisu.

But Guisu had no intention of leaving and continued to sit there.

“You go ahead, I have a few words to say to her.”

Baili Xia was slightly startled and looked up at Bei Tianyou.

Bei Tianyou just tugged at his lips, nodded, and turned to leave.

After Fan Yi followed him out of the hall, Baili Xia looked at Guisu and asked, “What’s so important that you couldn’t say it earlier?”

Guisu stared at Baili Xia with wide eyes, not speaking.

After a few seconds of stalemate, Baili Xia couldn’t help it.

“What on earth is it? If you don’t say it, I’m really going to go back to sleep.”
