Chapter 467: Lie Down Don't Move_1

Mu Xiaoyao snorted awkwardly, withdrawing his disdainful gaze from the man kneeling on the ground.

He looked at Da Hei, his thin lips forming a cold line: “Where’s the car?”

“Outside, didn’t get it brought over because we were busy chasing them.”

Da Hei realized, the Boss was quite drunk.

Thankfully, he could still stand firm with sheer willpower.

Da Hei had the car brought over, and Baili Xia was preparing to help him get in.

Unexpectedly, she was suddenly lifted off her feet by Mu Xiaoyao.

“Brother,” she was taken aback and wanted to grab his collar.

However, the moment she moved, it made her injured face contort with pain.

“Stop moving if you’re hurt.

I’m fine.

I don’t need your help,” he said.

Mu Xiaoyao’s faced darkened, and from his tone, it was obvious he was in a bad mood.

One might even say he was angry.

Once they got into the car and sped away from the area.

Da Hei glared at the man still on his knees.

He was full of rage.

“You’ve pissed off the Boss.

Now tell me, who told you to do this?

If you don’t tell me, I’ll rip your head off!”

…

Mu Xiaoyao carried Baili Xia, all the way back to his apartment.

After gently placing her on the couch, he promptly got some clothes and headed into the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water echoed from inside.

He needed to take a cold shower, to sober up as quickly as possible.

However, when he emerged from the bathroom in fresh clothes, Baili Xia was no longer on the couch.

Feeling an undefined pain, he stepped over and was about to go outside to look for her.

Suddenly, there was a clattering sound from the kitchen, as if something had fallen and broken.

Mu Xiaoyao’s heart tightened, he strode over in long steps.

In the kitchen, Baili Xia was on the ground, about to pick up the broken pieces with her uninjured right hand.

Mu Xiaoyao suddenly appeared, scaring her.

Unintentionally, a piece of shard grazed her fingertip, and a small red dot appeared.

Before Baili Xia could react to the pain, someone had already squatted down next to her.

Holding her hand and putting her injured finger into his mouth.

“Brother!” She was startled and attempted to pull her hand away.

But Mu Xiaoyao simply tightened his grip on her.

Cradling her long finger, he gently sucked on it.

By the time he had satisfied his bout of sucking and released her, the bleeding from her fingertip had already stopped.

Without uttering a word, he stood up and walked to the balcony.

He grabbed a broom and dustpan and swept the broken shards into it.

Only after everything was cleaned up, he then looked at Baili Xia, who was still standing quietly to the side.

Her face looked even worse than when she first arrived.

“You’re hurt.

Why didn’t you just stay put on the sofa?

What are you doing here?”

“I…

I wanted to see what’s in the kitchen.

Thought about making you some ginger tea.”

“Do you think my kitchen would have those things?” Mu Xiaoyao carelessly dropped the broom, and turned to walk out.

Feeling hopeless, Baili Xia had no choice but to follow him.

His kitchen really had nothing.

The utensils were stored in a sterilizer.

She had every reason to believe that they hadn’t been used in hundreds of years.

The kitchen was completely devoid of any trace of cooking, let alone ginger.

She left to prepare a strong pot of tea for him.

However, just as she turned around, she heard Mu Xiaoya’s displeased voice from behind her: “Lie down, don’t move.”
