Chapter 2544

Baili Xia was contemplating something when Nangong Yun’s voice floated over again.

“Baili Xia went out right after Xi’er. If we’re not suspecting her, who else could we suspect?”

“Brother You, just bring her back and ask her; everything will become clear.”

Bei Tianyou lightly tapped the sofa armrest with his large hand and suddenly stood up.

Though his voice was soft, it was full of chill.

Bei Qingyue realized he had run out of patience to continue wasting time here.

“If you want to know something, wait for Bei Xier to come back and ask her.”

Bei Qingyue frowned, as she didn’t want to tear her relationship with Bei Tianyou apart.

But that didn’t mean she would show weakness.

With a heavy slap on the armrest, Bei Qingyue also stood up.

“You, today, I must take Baili Xia away; otherwise, I can’t give an account to the Old Madam.”

Bei Tianyou glanced at her indifferently, his expression icy.

He said nothing, just gave a signal to Fan Yi behind him.

Fan Yi understood, raised his hand, and the brothers behind him immediately spread out, surrounding the hall.

Bei Qingyue was furious, never expecting Bei Tianyou to turn against her for an outsider!

Even though this outsider was his fiancée, she never said she would harm her.

She just wanted to take her back and ask about the situation.

She said coldly, “You, are you really going to turn against me for an outsider?”

Bei Tianyou’s face remained calm, the chill slowly fading away.

But the more he behaved this way, the clearer his determination seemed.

He said calmly, “When Xi’er comes back, I will take her there personally.”

“No,” Bei Qingyue immediately refused, “Baili Xia must come with me now.”

The atmosphere in the hall became tense, with both sides on the verge of clashing.

Baili Xia stood by the door watching it all, feeling conflicted.

She appreciated Brother You’s protection of her, but she absolutely didn’t want to see him make enemies with the Bei family because of her.

Even though she had a poor impression of Bei Qingyue, she still represented the Bei Family as the Clan Leader of the Bei Miao Clan, and her contributions to the Bei Family were undeniable.

She never wanted to be the cause of internal strife in the Bei Family.

After thinking it over, Baili Xia finally walked down the spiral staircase.

Sharp-eyed Nangong Yun spotted Baili Xia upstairs and quickly pointed to the second floor, saying, “Mom, Baili Xia has come out.”

Bei Qingyue looked up to the second floor, slightly surprised as she watched Baili Xia step by step descend the stairs.

She initially thought this girl was hiding in Bi Luo Pavilion, too afraid to come out.

You was just trying to protect her out of selfishness, which is why he stopped her from taking Baili Xia away.

But now, she had the audacity to come out on her own.

Bei Tianyou’s fingertip twitched, his dark eyes fixed on Baili Xia, a hint of complexity flashing within.

“Baili Xia, you finally came out? I thought you were going to keep hiding, letting Brother Tianyou protect you forever.”

“If you did something wrong, don’t avoid it. Running away won’t solve anything!”

Nangong Yun kept taunting until she suddenly felt the coldness from beside her, and she quickly fell silent.

Soon, Baili Xia arrived beside Bei Tianyou.

Her lively eyes flashed slightly, “Brother You, thank you for what you did for me.”

“This matter is actually unclear; I’m willing to go back with Lady Yue and explain.”

“No, saying anything now won’t help,” Bei Tianyou shook his head, refusing.

He knew well that no one would believe her word alone.

A smile tugged at the corners of Baili Xia’s lips as she said, “But I don’t want to see you and Lady Yue in conflict.”
