Chapter 259: Just Like Her Body

Mu Xiaoyao didn’t say anything more, and Baili Xia didn’t dare to disturb him either.

When both of them were silent, the atmosphere in the room turned a bit weird.

Ultimately, Baili Xia couldn’t help but look at him and began to speak.

“So… Brother, today is the weekend, can we…”

“What’s the rush?

I haven’t even had breakfast yet.”

“I got it, I’ll go and have them prepare breakfast for you right away.”

At the news, Baili Xia was about to rush out at once.

Yet, after only walking a short distance, she quickly stopped again.

Looking back at him, she seemed embarrassed: “Down there…”

She pointed outside: “The old Dongfang family guy is still here, right?

He’ll see through me if I go out like this.”

Mu Xiaoyao merely glanced at her without responding, his finger lingered on the mouse, seemingly scrolling through some things.

Just when Baili Xia was unsure whether she should leave or stay, suddenly the door to the room was knocked upon.

After just two knocks, the visitor immediately opened the door.

Within the Mu household, aside from the family master, what servant would dare to behave this way?

As expected, it was their eldest brother Mu Lingchuan who entered.

Baili Xia glanced at him and softly called out, “Big Brother.”

Seeing Lingchuan felt somewhat awkward at this point.

Did he figure out her act earlier?

Lingchuan simply nodded and promptly shut the door behind him.

He walked to one side and pulled out a chair to sit down, crossing his long legs.

He raised his eyes to look at Baili Xia, something indiscernible flickering in his gaze.

“Not bad, brat.

Your acting skills aren’t half bad.

Are you interested in coming to my company and trying out for a small role?”

“Big Brother, are you serious?

Would you really hire me?”

Lingchuan had only intended it as a joke, he hadn’t anticipated Baili Xia would take it so seriously.

Not only Lingchuan, even Xiaoyao looked surprised, and couldn’t help but turn his head to look at her: “Are you that fond of acting?”

“It’s not that I like to act, but if Big Brother employs me, surely I would be paid a salary, right?” Baili Xia asked with a smile.

“Are you short of money?” Furrowing his brow, traces of displeasure could be seen in Xiaoyao’s eyes.

“Do you think he would name a price for you?

Or do you just want to indirectly prompt Big Brother to give you money?”

Baili Xia couldn’t resist glaring at him, why did he always see the worst in people?

Truthfully, he wasn’t that heartless.

After spending time together these past few days, she’d already recognized that fact.

The three-day agreement he’d been demanding, he didn’t even mention it now.

In other words, he had implicitly agreed to let her stay in the Mu household.

Yet, this guy sure did have a sharp tongue.

She puckered her lips and rolled her eyes in frustration, muttering under her breath.

“I’m not asking for Big Brother to negotiate any kind of price, whatever he wants to give is fine.

I just want to earn some pocket money since my course load isn’t heavy.”

“Doesn’t the Mu family provide for your living expenses?

You don’t need to earn your own, and how much can you earn by working anyway?”

Xiaoyao snorted, his words were indeed as Baili Xia had thought, he never missed an opportunity to belittle someone.

“Or are you hoping to earn a high rate?

However, as far as I remember, Big Brother’s company doesn’t shoot age-restricted films, so you can give up on that thought.”

“Brother!” Having reached her limit, Baili Xia rolled her eyes angrily at him, even her face flushed with frustration.

“Why do you always think of people in such a way?

Are they all so disgraceful in your eyes?”

Age-restricted films?

Is he suggesting she film x-rated material?

She was so angry she wanted to stomp her foot, this jerk, talking with him was exasperating enough to frustrate her to death!
