Chapter 2380

On the way back, Baili Xia still felt a bit complicated, looking somewhat distracted.

“What are you thinking?” Wu Ming crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking down at her.

“I’m thinking…” She seemed to be getting used to it; when she had something on her mind, she liked to talk to him.

Although this guy often argued with her.

“I’m forcing Dad to investigate the past with us, won’t it be… bad?”

“Why would it be bad?” Wu Ming raised an eyebrow.

Baili Xia glanced at him, somewhat resentful.

Wu Ming had a hint of amusement in his eyes: “Afraid that things are dangerous, putting him in harm’s way?”

“You obviously know, so why ask?” She wasn’t sure why, but always felt that he would understand what she was thinking.

In fact, have their relationship developed to this point already?

A strange relationship, but one that was becoming more normal.

Wu Ming suddenly reached out and patted her on the head.

Baili Xia winced in pain, suddenly looking up at him with a glare: “Why did you hit me?”

“You just want him to leave Jin Ye Pavilion and live a normal life, what’s bad about that for him?”

Some things, even if Baili Xia didn’t say, would Bei Fengjin not think about them?

In the past, he didn’t want to think about them because Bei Qingyou was no longer there, so his life had no meaning.

So, whether he investigated or not, or what the truth was, made no difference to him.

The most important is, Bei Qingyou is really gone.

But now things are different, now he has a daughter, someone he wants to protect.

Some things, even if Baili Xia doesn’t say, he would still do.

This girl is just giving him an excuse to step outside.

“Instead of thinking so much, you should think about what to do next.”

“What should I do next?” The resentment in Baili Xia’s eyes disappeared, she looked at him expectantly.

Wu Ming wanted to laugh, but didn’t actually laugh.

The little girl is starting to depend on him, just like she depends on Uncle.

He was aware that she often mistook him for Mu Xiaojiu, but in truth, he was Mu Xiaojiu.

“Next… hmm, let me sleep with you tonight, and I’ll tell you.”

“Get lost!”

“Get lost as in getting into bed?”

“Get far away! If you dare come in tonight, I’ll beat you to death!”

…

The next day, early in the morning, Baili Xia’s room door was knocked on.

However, before anyone inside could react, the room across was already opened from the inside.

Wu Ming stepped out, glancing in this direction from afar.

Seeing it was Bei Tianyou’s assistant, he furrowed his brows and leaned against the corridor.

His lazy appearance made him hard to see through.

Last night he really was kicked out by that girl, slept terribly the whole night.

Even now, he felt a bit sleepy.

Fan Yi simply smiled at him, then knocked on Baili Xia’s room door again.

Baili Xia, whose hair was a bit messy, yawned as she walked out.

Opening the door, finding it wasn’t Wu Ming, she immediately started tidying her long hair.

“Fan Yi, so early, what’s up?” She couldn’t help but yawn again.

“The young master asked me to notify Miss Xiaxia to accompany him outside.”

Fan Yi still showed no expression, seeming as if he was always like this.

“Outside? Where to?”

Going out so early, is there something to do? Baili Xia was a bit surprised.

“Bei Family’s herb field.” Fan Yi glanced at her messy long hair and smiled.

Bei Family’s herb field? She’s just a personal doctor, why would he let her handle outside matters?
