Perhaps it was because the newspaper’s content was particularly interesting that Mu Xiaojiu kept staring at it, his gaze never wavering.

After finishing her meal, Baili Xia picked up a napkin and gently wiped her mouth.

Then she looked at Mu Xiaojiu and said, “Uncle, have you found Mu Xuri?”

Mu Xiaojiu’s fingers twitched, and he lifted his gaze slightly, casually folding the newspaper and placing it on the coffee table.

“Not yet.”

Wolf Territory has already stationed personnel at all entry and exit points in Jin City; he firmly believes that as long as Mu Xuri tries to leave, he will be discovered.

The fact that he hasn’t shown up until now probably means he’s hiding somewhere in Jin City within that mysterious organization.

Baili Xia didn’t ask further; she trusted her uncle’s capability.

As long as he understands the kind of person Mu Xuri is, that’s enough.

He will certainly handle the rest.

Baili Xia’s peripheral vision swept over the newspaper, and a huge headline caught her eye.

The Mu Group’s palace drama, the returned person is actually the mastermind.

No wonder her uncle was so engrossed earlier; it was because of this.

The Mu Group’s matter has been revealed through a press conference, and the media is fully aware of it; now it’s all over the news.

Newspapers, television, radio, and even the internet.

This kind of news disseminated will probably have a significant impact on the Mu Corporation’s business.

Before his departure, Mu Xuri dug such a big pit for the Mu Corporation.

To reverse this crisis, her uncle would likely have to put in a lot of effort.

Thinking of this, Baili Xia couldn’t help but ask, “Uncle, is the company alright?”

Mu Xiaojiu looked at her and calmly said, “Concerned about the company’s matters? Do you want to go to the company and help me?”

She immediately refused, “No need, I haven’t graduated yet; I don’t know what I can do.”

Seeing her refusal was so quick, a complex look flashed across Mu Xiaojiu’s eyes.

“The company has Lingchuan, there’s no problem for the time being.”

“Oh,” Baili Xia responded.

At such a critical moment, her uncle definitely doesn’t have the time to manage the company’s affairs simultaneously.

Her elder brother has years of experience managing the company; with him overseeing, he should be able to resolve this crisis.

She paused and then said, “By the way, I released Ning Anran.”

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t seem at all surprised, calmly saying, “Did you soften up?”

Upon her return yesterday, Yu Le had already reported this matter to him.

As for Ning Anran, he didn’t care about her life or death.

Therefore, he didn’t stop it.

“No.”

Baili Xia shook her head and said, “It wasn’t necessary. Although she did a lot of bad things, she doesn’t deserve to die.”

“Anyway, there’s no chance of seeing her again in the future, and she won’t harm me anymore.”

Mu Xiaojiu smirked lightly, not agreeing with this notion.

He sees through Ning Anran even more clearly than Baili Xia does.

“If you’ve let her go, so be it. If she harms you again, I won’t give you such a chance next time.”

Baili Xia’s heart tightened, and she looked up at him.

Does he mean that the next time Ning Anran falls into his hands, he will directly kill her?

Their eyes met, and an unusual feeling enveloped her.

Her uncle’s way has always been straightforward and decisive.

He prefers to fight enemies with violence, leaving them no chance to retaliate.

By his side, one feels very safe.

But once you become his enemy, it’s terrifying.

“What are you looking at?”

A calm voice called Baili Xia back to her senses from her thoughts.

“Nothing, nothing.”

Suddenly, an image flashed through her mind, and she hurriedly said, “There’s one person I hope you can spare.”

Mu Xiaojiu furrowed his brow and said, “Tian?”
