Even though Wu Ming has a really bad temper, I can’t just let him go hungry when he’s following me.

Since we don’t know how long we’ll stay here, we can’t just sit and eat our way through everything.

Besides, right now, we don’t even have a “mountain” to eat from.

If I don’t get my act together, I’ll only be left drinking northwest wind.

“Did I hit the mark? Is that why you’re losing your temper?”

Wu Ming raised an eyebrow and sat up.

Once he was up, he realized it was really uncomfortable.

If he hadn’t been standing there admiring this girl but had been sleeping here the whole time,

he thought his bones wouldn’t be worth keeping.

What kind of sofa is this? How can it be this short?

Seeing him looking at the sofa with disdain, Baili Xia got even angrier.

“If you don’t like it, you don’t have to stay here. You should know, I am a girl.”

“A girl?”

Wu Ming turned his head and looked at her.

His gaze traveled from top to bottom, with a teasing air.

Baili Xia saw what he meant. This guy seemed to be asking for a beating early in the morning.

She silently picked up a pillow from the side and threw it fiercely at Wu Ming.

Wu Ming just lightly dodged aside, and the pillow flew towards the door, not even brushing against him.

Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside.

“Knock knock…”

“Xiaxia, it’s me.” Bei Tianyou’s loud voice came in from outside the door.

Baili Xia gave Wu Ming a sharp look before stepping over to open the door.

The atmosphere in the room felt a bit off, so Bei Tianyou didn’t immediately step inside.

“What’s wrong?” he gently asked.

Baili Xia pouted and softly said, “Brother You, could you arrange a room for this guy?”

Bei Tianyou frowned and glanced inside.

For such a small matter, he was happy to oblige.

“Sure, no problem.” He still looked gentle.

Wu Ming caught his provocative look and snorted, “No need.”

Baili Xia turned and gave him a look, saying firmly, “Need.”

Ignoring the cold aura he exuded, she turned her gaze back to Bei Tianyou.

“Well then, Brother You, I’ll leave it to you.”

She understood Wu Ming’s temper better than anyone. Even if Bei Tianyou arranged it, he might not be willing to accept it.

But, she had to try.

Baili Xia’s face was full of disgust, and anyone who didn’t know might think this guy did something to her yesterday.

Actually, she just wasn’t used to having a man staying in her room.

There wasn’t a shred of dislike towards Wu Ming.

Bei Tianyou nodded and stopped talking.

Baili Xia knew that seeking his help was definitely the right choice.

However, they couldn’t just cling to others for nothing.

Living and eating for free wasn’t her intention.

Meeting Bei Tianyou’s gaze, she said somewhat embarrassed, “Brother You, could you…”

“Help me find a job in the Miao Domain?”

Bei Tianyou seemed a bit confused, trying to discern something from her eyes.

“You need to find a job here?”

Getting her a job wasn’t difficult, but this girl…

“Yes.” Baili Xia nodded seriously.

Bei Tianyou finally understood her intent and softly asked, “Are you really not planning to return to the Mu family?”

As soon as he spoke, the cold aura from Wu Ming inside also dissipated, and he looked at the girl’s small figure.

Baili Xia was calmer than he imagined. She collected herself and said, “We plan to stay here for a while.”
