Chapter 298: I Want You 23_1

“If there’s nothing, then what is your current attitude towards Uncle?”

He was so obviously angry and yet he had the audacity to say there was nothing.

Did he think I was a fool?

But Baili Xia just didn’t want to deal with Mu Xiaojiu.

Was it any different whether she was angry at him or not?

When did he ever care about anyone else’s feelings when he wanted to do something?

Mu Xiaojiu just quietly watched her, without saying a word.

Their relationship was always so strange, good one moment and bad the next.

Sometimes, even he himself didn’t know how to deal with her.

He wanted to pamper and cherish her, yet he was afraid that he would entrap himself.

He absolutely couldn’t let any woman control him.

Once he fell for someone, everything he did from then on would be influenced.

However, what Mu Xiaojiu didn’t know was that he was already unconsciously influenced by this girl in front of him in everything he did.

Only he wasn’t aware of it himself yet.

The sightseeing car slowly returned to the front courtyard.

Even after entering the Sihai Residence, Mu Xiaojiu never let go of Baili Xia.

He still held her, walking towards the main house of the Sihai Residence.

Nangong Xu, who had received the news, was already waiting in the room.

After Mu Xiaojiu returned, he immediately did a simple check-up on him.

Only after the examination was over and everything was packed up, he looked at Ye Hua.

“I can’t even listen?” Ye Hua looked at him, his face sinking.

“You’re overthinking.” Nangong Xu hummed coldly.

“I just asked you to tell the servants to prepare some broth for tonight, according to the prescription I’ve given.”

“Okay.” Ye Hua nodded only then.

After greeting Mu Xiaojiu, he turned and left the room.

The moment the door was closed, Baili Xia’s eyes were immediately locked onto Nangong Xu.

She knew he intentionally sent Ye Hua away.

Was there something that wasn’t appropriate to be said in front of Ye Hua?

“He and Leng Yu already dislike you enough, this kind of thing, it’s best not to let them hear too much.”

Nangong Xu didn’t even look at her, but he had already guessed her thoughts.

Looking at Mu Xiaojiu, his face darkened.

“Mr.

Xiaojiu, you know your own health situation, why don’t you take care of yourself?”

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t say anything.

Baili Xia, however, immediately understood.

The poison in Uncle’s body had caused him harm again.

It must be because he had climbed up the rock wall to rescue her before.

His vigorous movement and fast blood circulation had intensified the damage of the poison.

However, who could stop Uncle from what he intended to do?

Furthermore, she didn’t know he was there at that time, let alone that he would suddenly come up and save her.

Nangong Xu didn’t say it because he didn’t want Ye Hua to hate her more.

Uncle, once again, rescued her.

“I know my own situation very well.

I’m fine, you guys are overthinking.”

Mu Xiaojiu leaned against the head of the bed, looking at Baili Xia: “Go and run some water, I need to take a bath.”

“Alright.” Baili Xia glanced at him, then looked at Nangong Xu.

She read something in Nangong Xu’s eyes.

She pursed her lips and turned into the bathroom.

Uncle wanted to keep her from worrying, so he deliberately sent her away.

So, after she walked into the bathroom, she closed the door and started to fill the tub for him.

Just like he told her to be good, she complied and was obedient.

Wasn’t she being obedient now, not questioning anything?

However, that jerk Uncle was cruel to others as well as himself.

His body is already in such a state, couldn’t he care more about himself?

If she had fallen, she would have been hurt at most and could recover after a few days in bed.

But if the poison in his body completely corroded his internal organs, his life would be in danger!
