Chapter 2233

After Long Ting left, Baili Xia found the two discarded shoes and put them on.

She had been barefoot for so long, the soles of her feet were already worn out.

She arranged for Yu Le to lie down on the prepared hospital bed, ready to bandage him up.

In the yard, Yu Le had been fighting two opponents at once, and the number of hits he took was countless.

Although these injuries wouldn’t be fatal, they weren’t light either.

Despite having many questions she wanted to ask Mu Xiaojiu upon seeing him return, Baili Xia couldn’t worry about it now.

Just as she was about to start bandaging Yu Le, Mu Xiaojiu walked over and grabbed her arm.

Baili Xia looked at him with a face full of bewilderment.

“Uncle, what is it?”

“Your injuries also need to be bandaged.”

Baili Xia pursed her lips and shook her head.

“I’m fine, I came late and didn’t get hit much.”

Looking into Mu Xiaojiu’s deep eyes, she had no confidence in her words.

Her body did indeed hurt.

Especially when she felt his gaze locked on the corner of her lips, Baili Xia felt even more guilty.

She quickly turned her face away, raising her hand to wipe her lips.

Sure enough, there was still a trace of blood.

But Yu Le had suffered more serious injuries protecting Xiaoxiao.

And today, the only doctor in the medical room was Nangong Xu.

He was inside treating Ye Hua; aside from Baili Xia, no one else had time to bandage Yu Le.

Yu Le lay on the bed, looking up at the two by the bedside, feeling silently anxious.

After pondering, he still said, “Mr. Xiaojiu, my injuries aren’t serious. I can wait for Mr. Nangong to treat me…”

“No.” Baili Xia immediately interrupted him, “Your injuries aren’t light, don’t delay.”

After speaking, her gaze returned to Mu Xiaojiu, her voice softening.

“Uncle, you go to the room and wait for me first.”

“I’ll come find you once I’ve bandaged him.”

Mu Xiaojiu slightly raised his eyebrows, knowing she didn’t mean it that way, but her words easily caused misunderstanding.

Yu Le still dared not let Baili Xia stay, as Miss Xiaxia was a girl.

Unlike him, who was accustomed to training, these injuries were nothing to him.

Especially when seeing Mr. Xiaojiu’s imposing manner, it was clear he wanted Miss Xiaxia to go with him.

Yu Le opened his mouth, saying, “No need, Miss Xiaxia, I…”

But before he could finish, Mr. Xiaojiu’s chilling gaze shot towards him, frightening him into silence.

His heart constantly felt uneasy, questioning what Mr. Xiaojiu meant.

Earlier, he clearly wanted to take Miss Xiaxia away, but now…

Baili Xia took in everything, unsure what to say.

All she knew was that Uncle’s gaze was tightly fixed on her.

The gaze lacked the determination to make her leave, but had a touch of gentleness.

“Alright, hurry back once you’re done.”

She couldn’t be at ease without taking care of Yu Le.

A restless heart would affect the efficacy of treatment.

Uncle unexpectedly agreed, and Baili Xia quickly nodded.

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t say anything more, giving Baili Xia a deep look before turning to leave.

Just as he stepped out of the medical room door, Mu Xiaoyao immediately caught up.

“Uncle, you…”

He walked beside Mu Xiaojiu, softly calling out.

Mu Xiaojiu raised his hand, stopping him from continuing.

He knew what Mu Xiaoyao wanted to say, but as the girl was busy, he didn’t want to use anyone else.

“Get a trustworthy batch of doctors over here, and tell Nangong Xu to treat the girl’s injuries.”

Aside from Nangong Xu, he trusted no one!
