Chapter 393: The truth right before the eyes 12_1

The phone’s ringtone continued to echo.

With a flick of her wrist, Baili Xia made a swishing sound, and a silver chain immediately spun around her waist several times.

She gently fastened one end of the chain to her waist, and with a snap, the silver chain became an exquisite piece of jewelry.

She walked over, took out her phone, the screen was displaying an incoming call from a stranger.

After hesitating, Baili Xia still picked up the call.

On the other end of the phone, a familiar female voice came through: “Xiaxia, it’s mom…”

…

Baili Xia never imagined that one day she would willingly walk into this grand mansion.

The Dongfang Family’s villa was as grand as the Mu Mansion.

Front yard, backyard, and the hill behind, spread as far as the eye could see, from a single glance one would know how well off the owner was.

During those two years, she had stayed in a separate courtyard of the Dongfang Family, looking after Dongfang Jin.

She had never been to the real Dongfang Family’s home.

The Mu family’s driver dropped her off and waited outside.

Baili Xia entered by herself, and the security guard at the gate did not stop her.

On the contrary, he opened the gate for her.

A middle-aged man came out to greet her.

Upon seeing Baili Xia, he immediately broke into a smile.

“Xiaxia, finally you are here, come here, let me have a good look at you.”

In her memory, this man never liked to smile at her.

From when she was little to adulthood, he only ever showed her a cold face.

Now that he’s looking at her with such a warm smile, not that she likes to be suspicious, but she can’t help but to be.

Did she suddenly gain a degree of usefulness in his eyes?

Because, she is now a part of the Mu family?

Despite her reluctance, she still greeted him lightly: “…Dad.”

Yes, the man before her was Baili Xia’s foster father.

Her mother hinted on the phone that her foster father wanted to reconcile with her, and they might remarry soon.

Her mother was soft-hearted, in her heart, she only ever loved her foster father.

If it wasn’t for Baili Xia, her mother might not have survived when the foster father kicked her out.

Now that the foster father wants to make amends, she is bound to be overjoyed.

Oh mother…

you are such a fool.

Is a man who had ruthlessly abandoned her still trustworthy?

But she dares not to express any of her thoughts, especially after seeing He Xinjie.

The current He Xinjie, sitting on the bed, her face pale.

She was supposed to be recuperating in the hospital, but her foster father said he wanted to bring her home, and she immediately agreed.

Weakened from the long journey, even now, she still appears frail.

“Xiaxia, come over here, come to mom.”

Upon seeing Baili Xia, He Xinjie was immediately moved.

As soon as she walked over, she was held tightly: “Xiaxia, dad has forgiven us, our family can finally be reunited.”

Baili Xia just moved her lips, but said nothing.

Forgiven?

Silly mom, it was clearly the foster father who kicked her out, if anyone should be forgiving, it should be her forgiving dad.

Unfortunately, her mother has always been like this, and probably will never change.

“You and your mother haven’t seen each other in a while, you two have a good chat, dad has to go take care of some things.”

The foster father still gave a smile to Baili Xia, then excused himself after greeting her.

His courteous and gentle demeanor was a stark contrast from the past.

“Mom, why would he suddenly bring you over?”

As soon as he left, Baili Xia immediately asked in a low voice.

Her foster father has been a housekeeper in the Dongfang family for many years.

Perhaps due to Lu Xuening’s impending marriage to Dongfang Jin, they now live in a separate villa in the courtyard.

He is the housekeeper, but he lives like a co-owner.

Indeed, with a daughter marrying well, his status has also increased exponentially.
