Chapter 325: Once He Adored Her As His Life 08_1

Uncle, why would he be here?

Is it a coincidence, or intentional?

Has the poison in his body been completely cleansed?

If not, how could he leave the Mu Mansion?

Why did he come here?

Mu Xiaojiu merely caught a glance of Baili Xia’s face.

He was looking intently at Dongfang Jin, who was sitting next to the dining table.

His eyes were deep, a faint spark was hidden within.

…

Why Uncle is here, Baili Xia didn’t know, but, one thing she was certain of.

The hostile atmosphere between Uncle and Dongfang Jin was cold and hard, the air seemed heavy.

Seeing that Mu Xiaojiu’s gaze fixed on Dongfang Jin, Baili Xia felt a tinge of anxiety and immediately explained.

“Jin just wanted to express his gratitude to me, nothing more.”

I>She doesn’t really know what the grudge between them was, but she knew they were not on good terms.

If she doesn’t explain earlier, she fears they will create a scene here.

Though, they both are mature enough, they wouldn’t make a scene here.

But why was she so worried?

Worried that they would really get into a conflict?

However, she didn’t expect her words made Mu Xiaojiu’s furrowed brows locked instantly.

His dark eyes focused on her face, his voice turned a few degrees colder: “Jin?”

Baili Xia moved her lips, unsure how to explain further.

Jin…

no, that shouldn’t be her way of addressing Dongfang Jin.

She bit her lip and hurriedly corrected herself, “Mr.

Dongfang said I saved his brother yesterday and specifically came to express his gratitude.”

Hearing this, Mu Xiaojiu immediately went off.

“When someone wants to take you away, you just follow along.

What will you do if they imprison you?

Do you even comprehend what the words ‘the world is full of dangers’ mean!”

His expression was bad, his voice was also heavy, in a reproachful tone.

Baili Xia was stunned by his lecture, she didn’t dare to raise her head.

If it were someone else, she wouldn’t have easily left with them.

But, that was Jin…

But, how dare she explain to Uncle now?

On the other hand, Dongfang Jin who was sitting on the side watched their interaction, something was flashing in his eyes.

A morning of thoughts, disturbed by Baili Xia, he finally sorted out his thoughts now.

Baili Xia moved into the Mu family, if she saved his brother while she was in the Mu family, then it meant she was part of the Mu family.

He was just surprised, Mu Xiaojiu who always hated women actually get along with this girl?

Even though every single statement of Mu Xiaojiu was a curse, his concern was obvious.

“What are you glancing at over there?

Have you not seen a man more handsome than you?”

Mu Xiaojiu scoffed coldly, then turned his gaze back to him.

Dongfang Jin also let out a cold hum, his thin lips pursed: “Boring.”

“Can it be more boring than you trying to flirt with women on inexplicable pretexts?”

Mu Xiaojiu was like a prickly hedgehog, anyone who got pricked would have bad luck.

Dongfang Jin stood up, glaring back at him.

There were people following both of them, but no one dared to approach.

Everyone knew that the relationship between these two gentlemen was never good.

It’s already quite good if they’re not fighting each other when they meet now.

Although, imagining it that way might be making it too childish.

Anyway, they wouldn’t randomly start a fight for no reason, it would be absolutely disgraceful.

Dongfang Jin looked at Mu Xiaojiu, his face somber.

“Isn’t it childish to be at odds?

You hurt my leg so badly, I haven’t settled this score with you yet!”
