Chapter 327: Once He Adored Her As His Life 10_1

Baili Xia was at a loss, unsure how to answer Dongfang Jin’s question.

Mu Xiaojiu, however, looked impatient: “What does it have to do with you?”

Baili Xia immediately bit her lip and kept quiet.

Uncle responded for her, so be it then.

Fortunately, Dongfang Jin didn’t seem to plan on digging into this matter deeper, assuming she was from the Mu family.

As for Mu Xiaojiu, he was probably just standing up for the younger generation of the Mu family.

He snorted coldly again, and when he looked at Mu Xiaojiu, his face was full of frost.

“You’d better keep your people in check and not let her bother me with petty excuses.”

“Just afraid that you’ll bother her for no reason.”

The two men looked at each other.

Mu Xiaojiu pulled Baili Xia closer and turned to leave.

Baili Xia sighed softly, stuck between these two men, again she ended up as the scapegoat.

However, the relationship between these two men was really strange.

Are they really enemies?

But, why doesn’t it seem like it?

Because between the two, although there was anger raging, you couldn’t feel much murderous intent.

Yes, there was no murderous intent, none at all.

But to say they’re friends is even more unlikely.

However, there is one thing that Baili Xia could confirm at least.

That is, Jin’s leg was not injured by Uncle.

Previously, Ziying had mentioned some feud between the two houses, it seemed, all of it were just conjectures by the younger generations.

Maybe even Dongfang Ji thought that his elder brother’s leg injury was caused by Uncle?

But of course, the two people directly involved didn’t take it seriously at all.

Understanding this made her feel completely relieved.

For some reason, the fact that Uncle and Jin didn’t truly hate each other made her breathe a sigh of relief.

Dongfang Jin sat back in his chair, watching the two’s figures slowly disappear from his sight.

Looking at Mu Xiaojiu, his face still showed disdain, but looking at Baili Xia, a certain indescribable feeling welled in his heart.

He had never thought he would see her here again.

This past year, he had deliberately not paid attention to anything about her.

He did not allow himself to soften, nor did he allow himself to look back.

Today’s meeting had indeed thrown off the calm he had for a year.

And now, she was actually by Mu Xiaojiu’s side.

Was it fate or coincidence?

Why did she have to show up here?

Those past things, which he had tried hard to bury deep in his heart, why did they have to be dug up again by her appearance?

Once they were dug up, the wounds would become bloody and raw, as if the scar was being torn open again, torn until it was bloody.

Baili Xia…was this girl sent by God to punish him?

Why is she appearing in his life again?

…

“Jin?

Hmm?” Within the car, the man lit a cigarette with a snap.

The little flame lit up his handsome face, making it look even colder.

“Are you close with him?

How close?

As close as you and I?”

Baili Xia sat at the side, speechless.

What was Uncle doing?

With his petty behavior, others might think that he was jealous.

No, he was just unhappy that his toy was getting close to others.

“Not too close.” She said softly, not wanting to cause any more trouble.

In fact, the shock from earlier had yet to fully subside.

Uncle had a spat with someone, a spat!

His aloof image was damaged.

“You’d better not lie in front of me, you should know how patient I am.”

Mu Xiaojiu’s cold stare was locked on her face.

If they weren’t close, would they be so intimate?

Did he think he was stupid?

This girl, dare try to lie to him!
