Chapter 2279

“However, it is indeed my problem, nothing to do with you. Fortunately, Uncle didn’t blame you.”

Baili Xia stuck out her tongue in pink, feeling helpless.

When she’s better, the scolding from Uncle is surely inevitable.

But being able to save Tian’s life, even if tormented again, it was worth it.

Besides, Uncle actually… cares for her, even if he punishes, he won’t really harm her.

At most, it’s just… that kind of… torment for a night.

Thinking about it, her small face blushed again.

Her relationship with Uncle is really… hard to explain.

Nangong Xu stayed silent, rolled up her sleeve and jabbed the needle into her vein.

“Master, be gentle, it hurts like hell.” Baili Xia inhaled sharply from the pain.

“You still feel pain?” Nangong Xu glanced at her, “I thought you were made of steel.”

Baili Xia pursed her lips again, with resentment saying: “At critical times, how can we think of so much; even if it hurts, the task must be completed first.”

“Knowing you have many reasons, you should think about how to appease Mr. Xiaojiu.”

After the injection, Nangong Xu rubbed her head, stood up.

“I’ll go check on Xiaoxiao, someone will bring you food later, you come over after you eat.”

“Okay.”

…

Baili Xia had a simple breakfast in the medical room, and when she got to Xiaoxiao’s ward, the atmosphere in the room was noticeably off.

“Miss Xiaxia, you came.” Ye Hua seemed to be preparing to leave, but when he saw her, his eyes lit up.

“Ye Hua, you’re so seriously injured, why don’t you lie down and continue to rest?”

Baili Xia walked in, staring at his pale face.

Ye Hua shook his head, yet urgently said: “Xiaoxiao wants to see you.”

“Xiaoxiao is awake?” Xiaoxiao woke up last night, but her consciousness was still very unclear.

Nangong Xu was afraid they would ask too much, affecting her recovery, so they basically didn’t question her yesterday.

Now Xiaoxiao wants to see her, does it mean she is truly awake this time?

“Xiaxia…” Over by the bed, Xiaoxiao was trying hard to sit up.

Ye Hua immediately returned and cautiously helped her up.

“Xiaoxiao, be careful, you just woke up!”

Baili Xia quickly walked over, feeling dizzy with strong body movements.

Nangong Xu understood her current situation better than anyone, immediately supported her: “Slow down.”

“I know, Master, I’m fine.”

Baili Xia gently pushed him aside, watching Xiaoxiao sitting up.

Seeing Xiaoxiao’s eyes fully recover their brightness, Baili Xia finally relaxed her tense heart.

“Xiaxia…” Having barely survived the disaster, even Xiaoxiao herself was a bit frightened.

She really thought she was doomed this time.

Thinking about it, she immediately widened her eyes, staring at Baili Xia: “Ye Zi! Ye Zi… Xiaxia, I saw Ye Zi!”

“Ye Zi, Ye Zi she… she…”

“I know, don’t worry, Xiaoxiao, I saw Ye Zi too.”

“Did she harm you?” Xiaoxiao tightly gripped her hand, trying to examine her thoroughly to see if she was injured anywhere.

Probably because she just woke up not long ago, her body was still very weak.

With slight force, she coughed immediately.

“Xiaoxiao, don’t worry, I’m fine, Ye Zi is fine too, she… she’s been locked up by Uncle.”

While patting Xiaoxiao’s back to help her breathe easier, Baili Xia softly asked: “Was it Ye Zi who pushed you down, wasn’t it?”

The only one who could make Xiaoxiao draw a weapon but not use it was Ye Zi.
