Chapter 359: Wuli Uncle is Very Tsundere 12_1

“Even now, you’re still thinking of him.”

Baili Xia’s mind was a haze for a moment when Mu Xiaojiu’s completely cold voice rang out again.

“No!” Without even thinking, she immediately denied it.

Whether it was true or not, she could never admit it in front of Uncle.

She couldn’t take that risk, and what scared her even more was that he might harm not just her, but her family as well.

No matter how well he treated her, there was one thing that could never be overlooked.

Once blinded by rage, he definitely had the ability to ruin everything she had!

How could Mu Xiaojiu not see the alertness and panic in her eyes?

To her, he was always the person who persecuted her.

No matter how much he pampered and protected her, she would never forget what he had done to her.

“In your heart, what kind of person am I?”

Those words were almost forced out between gritted teeth.

Baili Xia was a bit unresponsive, but he didn’t give her a chance to delve deeper into the secrets of his heart.

He casually threw her back onto the bed and, full of rage and chill, strode out.

The door slammed shut, and more than half of the cold atmosphere in the room was gone in an instant.

After being dazed for a while, Baili Xia slowly climbed back into bed.

Her chest still heaved, and her breath was a little ragged.

But, at least she felt relieved.

At least Uncle wouldn’t reveal their relationship for now.

Even though he was still angry when he left, she somehow had confidence.

He wouldn’t say anything.

After sighing with relief, she realized that she was already extremely exhausted.

Uncle angrily left the house, where was he now?

Would he come back tonight?

If he didn’t return, could she go back to her room in the main house to sleep?

This man, temperamental and unpredictable, was too difficult to figure out.

She couldn’t afford to provoke him, and at the moment, all she wanted to do was get away.

To get far, far away…

…

Mr.

Xiaojiu was in a bad mood tonight, and everyone in the Sihai Residence could tell.

He sat alone at the bar in the corner of the great hall, drinking heavily.

A maid had accidentally gotten close, and he immediately smashed his glass on her.

A cold “Get lost” scared the maid so much she fainted on the spot.

It was Ye Hua who ordered someone to quickly carry her away, saving her from being kicked out directly by Mr.

Xiaojiu.

Ye Hua and Leng Yu, who had been with Mr.

Xiaojiu for many years, had never seen him this irritable.

He was indeed bad-tempered, but not to this extent.

It was all Baili Xia’s doing; every time he was irritable, it was because of her.

“I knew that having that woman with Mr.

Xiaojiu would only spell trouble,” Leng Yu grumbled under his breath, clenching his fists.

“How long has she been with Mr.

Xiaojiu?

What good has she ever done for him?”

Ye Hua didn’t respond; some things weren’t appropriate to say at this time.

The fact that Nangong Xu used Baili Xia’s blood to create an antidote for Mr.

Xiaojiu was only known to Nangong Xu, Baili Xia, and himself.

Although he didn’t like Baili Xia being around Mr.

Xiaojiu either, he did have some respect for her in this regard.

She had promised not to mention it and had truly kept quiet about it.

If it were any other woman, she would have already flaunted her contribution in front of Mr.

Xiaojiu.

As for tonight, when faced with danger, Baili Xia didn’t immediately run away.

Instead, she did everything she could to find him first, so he could save Mr.

Xiaojiu.

For this, he came to dislike her a little less.

She truly cared about Mr.

Xiaojiu.

Even if she feared him, at least, she genuinely cared.
