Chapter 492: Fainting then there will be no pain_1

Scum?

This was the first time Baili Xia had thus severely berated Mu Xiaojiu.

Mu Xiaojiu’s large hand gripped tighter still, but his fingertips were cold as ice.

Mu Xiaoyao gazed at Baili Xia’s retreating figure, and after she had left the room, he could not resist glancing back at Mu Xiaojiu.

Still standing there without making a sound or changing his expression.

Even Mu Xiaoyao was entirely unable to discern what he was thinking in this moment.

But, Baili Xia had truly left.

He hesitated for a moment, then followed her out.

Not catching up to her, just trailing behind at a distance, observing where she was headed.

Baili Xia didn’t leave the Sihai Residence, nor did she go anywhere else.

After descending the stairs, she simply turned a corner in the hall and headed towards the infirmary in the backyard.

Beside the infirmary were some meticulously constructed cottages, where Nangong Xu resided.

But at this hour, late into the night, Nangong Xu was already asleep.

She knew where his room was.

Standing outside his door, she lifted her weak right hand and began to knock forcefully.

“Mr.

Nangong, Mr.

Nangong, I need you for something.”

Her voice was hoarse and weak, causing heartache in anyone who heard it.

She was truly in unbearable pain.

If she didn’t find someone to treat her soon, she feared her arm would be utterly ruined.

Inside, Nangong Xu casually threw a robe on and, despite looking half-asleep, opened the door.

Seeing Baili Xia standing outside, her face pale as paper, instantly brought him fully awake.

“What’s the matter?”

“My, my arm hurts, my shoulder is injured…I don’t know if the bone is damaged, can you help me check it out?

I’m scared my hand will be ruined!

I still need this arm, this hand…”

“Don’t panic, let’s take a look.”

This girl must be terrified, her speech had begun to lose coherence.

He emerged from the room and, directing her to the infirmary, looked up only to spot two figures in the distance.

Mu Xiaoyao stood closer to them, silently watching.

A bit further away, Mr.

Xiaojiu stood in the shadows, his gaze fixed unwaveringly on them.

Although he did not know exactly what had transpired between them, as a physician, his priority was to make sure his patient was treated.

Noticing that Baili Xia’s steps were extremely unsteady, and that she bore the scent of red wine, he frowned and helped her, becoming quite admonishing.

“Why would you drink liquor when you’re injured?”

“Uncle forced me to drink.

You should know, whatever he wants to do, nobody can stop him”

Baili Xia wanted to laugh, but at this time, even smiling was a struggle.

That man, so wild as to inspire fear.

Just now, having called him scum, surely, her death was nearing.

How he would end her life, she no longer had the energy to wonder.

Now, all she cared about was her hand.

If her arm was indeed ruined, what would she do in the future?

“Mr.

Nangong, please help me, I’m dizzy and can barely walk.”

It wasn’t that she was fragile, but descending from the second floor of the hall and persisting until here had drained all her strength.

She was genuinely on the edge of passing out.

Nangong Xu also realized she was behaving unusually.

Helpless, he could only ignore the cold stares from the two in the distance and support her waist.

However, as soon as he did, Baili Xia collapsed.

She could no longer hold on.

Once she knew she was finally safe, her taut nerves slackened and consciousness completely left her.

The pain from her shoulder spread uncontrollably.

Perhaps, passing out was a good thing.

At least, once unconscious, she wouldn’t feel the pain anymore.
