Baili Xia looked at Bei Tianyou and smiled.

“I can’t keep troubling you, so…”

She spoke lightly, but both Bei Tianyou and Wu Ming could sense her helplessness.

However, as for who this was all for, maybe only she herself could be sure.

The things Baili Xia requested were small matters for Bei Tianyou; finding her a job wouldn’t be difficult.

He just wasn’t certain if she truly wasn’t returning to Jin City.

But, despite her small stature, this girl was astonishingly stubborn.

“If you really need a job, why not be my family doctor?”

As soon as Bei Tianyou said this, Baili Xia was so excited that she nearly jumped up.

Apart from her medical skills, she really didn’t have other specialties.

“I… can I really?”

She blinked, staring at him unblinkingly.

“I’ve witnessed your medical skills last time too.”

After a pause, Bei Tianyou added, “Very impressive.”

Being acknowledged for her abilities naturally made Baili Xia happy.

But she wondered if she could really handle being his family doctor?

Not giving her a moment to hesitate, Bei Tianyou continued, “Starting today, let’s have a one-month trial.”

“Once the trial period is over, you can stay as long as you want.”

“Until you decide to leave, that’s when the contract ends.”

He raised an eyebrow, looking down at her, and asked in a deep voice, “Confident?”

“Yes,” Baili Xia replied firmly.

She would definitely work hard, not wanting to disappoint his expectations.

“Good.”

Bei Tianyou smiled, his smile giving a gentle and pleasant feeling like a spring breeze.

That feeling was truly wonderful.

…

At noon, close to lunchtime, Wu Ming was still training in the backyard.

Even after arriving at the Bei Family, he hadn’t slacked off on his training.

However, the conditions here were different from those at the Mu Mansion.

First, he needed to protect Baili Xia and couldn’t go far.

Second, as a guest, the Bei Family’s back mountain wasn’t a suitable place for an outsider like him to train.

After all, it was a training ground for several of the Bei Family’s forces.

Thus, Wu Ming had no choice but to train in the backyard of the Bi Luo Pavilion.

Thankfully, Bei Tianyou had set up plenty of training equipment here, making it convenient for him.

Wu Ming practiced for a while, breaking into a sweat, drenched all over.

He completed the final set of recovery exercises, ready to go back for a wash and then eat.

Just as he turned to leave, he suddenly sensed a fierce punch approaching from behind.

The punch was so powerful, tearing the air with a loud sound.

Wu Ming frowned slightly, quickly turning around, and immediately threw a punch.

With a boom, it felt like the air exploded.

In an instant, the two were thrown apart.

“Been a while, looking for a beating again?”

Glancing at the cold figure opposite him, Wu Ming said coldly.

Guisu snorted coldly, a hint of disdain on his face.

Yet his iron fists were clenched tightly.

“Then let’s try.”

Wu Ming raised an eyebrow, his gaze turning cold.

Not sure if Guisu had lost his mind, to come looking for trouble.

But, it was perfect timing.

Hadn’t had a good fight in a while, perfect to loosen up.

Their momentum surged instantly, the air freezing in an instant.

They stood only five or six meters apart, staring at each other, neither moved.

Silence, the whole backyard except for the sound of wind.

Suddenly, both moved at the same time.

Their speed was astonishing, colliding in the blink of an eye, only to separate instantly.

There was a muffled thud, like a sandbag heavily hitting the ground.

Listening closely, it seemed like there were two sounds…
