Chapter 57: 19_1

“Xiaxia, what are you saying?

I didn’t hear you clearly.” From outside, Dong Xiangxiang was already trying to push the door open.

However, the door was locked and she couldn’t open it.

She had no choice but to knock on the door again and asked: “Xiaxia, what were you saying?

Open the door first.”

“I…” Baili Xia bit her lips hard, barely stopping herself from screaming out loud.

She took a deep breath, and tried to sound as normal as she could: “Auntie…I…I’m already asleep, I…I’ll eat tomorrow.”

Dong Xiangxiang had no idea what this little girl was up to; why did her voice sound weird?

She continued knocking on the door: “Xiaxia, are you feeling unwell?

Open the door and let me in.”

“I…

Uncle!” He moved again!

This bad man!

However, Mu Xiaojiu was not moving aimlessly; he reached out to pick up the phone on the bedside table.

He dialed a number quickly.

The call was picked up almost immediately: “Mr.

Xiaojiu, what is it?”

“Get rid of Dong Xiangxiang.

She’s outside Xiaxia’s room, hurry!” Mu Xiaojiu ordered Ye Hua on the other end of the phone.

“Acknowledged!”

Watching as the man casually tossed the phone back onto the bedside table, Baili Xia kept biting her lip, her face flushing even deeper red.

Like this…

Ye Hua would definitely know what they were doing inside the room.

In order to continue his shameful actions, he even had Ye Hua get rid of her aunt…

At this moment, why did she feel just as shameless as him?

What was she to make of this?

It must be said that Ye Hua’s efficiency was truly impressive.

Less than a minute after Mr.

Xiaojiu’s call, he had already appeared outside Baili Xia’s room.

No one knew what he said to Dong Xiangxiang, but she immediately left.

Separated by a door, the soundproofing was surprisingly good.

Baili Xia couldn’t hear what they were saying at all.

She didn’t have the chance to hear clearly anyway.

…

“No!

Not at all!” Baili Xia immediately opened her eyes, denying it.

Was this a joke?

If they did anything now, would she even be able to see the light of day tomorrow?

“What are you thinking?” Mu Xiaojiu furrowed his brows.

If she wasn’t going to sleep, was she thinking about doing something with him?

Baili Xia immediately shook her head, so hard that she began to feel a little pain.

She took a deep breath, finally unable to hold back her worries: “Uncle, what should we do once daylight comes?”

This was Baili Xia’s biggest concern; at night, he could sneak in through the window; but what about when day broke?

Was he planning to walk out the front door with no regard?

What would happen if someone saw him?

“Afraid that the Mu family will find out about us?” He chuckled; she was worrying over that.

Baili Xia bit her lip and nodded.

Although Uncle looked truly mesmerizing when he smiled, she had to remember: he was a bad man, a bad man, a bad man!

She couldn’t be infatuated with a bad man!

“Grandpa’s heart isn’t good,” she said softly.

“You do care about dad,” he commented dryly, betraying no sense of his feelings.

“Grandpa treats me very well,” she stated truthfully.

Grandpa was truly good to her, better than anyone else.

Mu Xiaojiu stayed silent, withdrawn.

Once he fell silent, the little girl immediately became uneasy.

Without realizing, her hand had found its way to his neck.

Even she didn’t know when she had started to show signs of being spoiled around Uncle.

“Uncle,” she softly called him, pouting her lips a little, “Uncle, don’t let them see.”

If Grandpa found out that they had been doing such things, he would surely feel so angry and hurt.

Mu Xiaojiu didn’t promise her anything, just gently patting her on the head with his large palm, “Sleep.”

“Uncle…”

“Want to do it again?”

She quickly closed her eyes and didn’t dare say another word.

Perhaps because she was so tired, she fell into slumber soon after closing her eyes.
