Chapter 623: That Gentleness feels Familiar_1

Why does she want his number?

This kind of game for the rich, even if Baili Xia didn’t understand it, she had an inkling about it.

Just because she spoke well about the Miao Domain, they suddenly showed whim and gave her medicine.

Could it be, they really want to be bothered by a girl like her?

It’s clear that Fan Yi particularly disliked girls who wanted to get close to Mr.

Bei.

It’s not difficult to imagine, how many girls tried to approach Mr.

Bei in the past.

Why would she want to be one of them?

Moreover, she didn’t enjoy being opportunistic.

Walking towards Imperial College, the sound of Mu Ziqing getting in her car and leaving faded behind her.

But for some reason, it seemed like she quickly turned around and came back the same way.

Could there be something else?

Baili Xia turned around, squinted at the approaching fancy car.

It was not Ziqing’s car…

“Miss Xiaxia, why are you walking alone? Where is your driver?”

Ye Hua parked the car and lowered the window.

“Driver… I sent him home since I was out to buy something.”

The icy atmosphere in the car, and that of Mr.

Bei just now, were almost identical.

Just like millennia-old icebergs, they were too cold to melt.

Even without seeing the person in the backseat, she knew who was sitting there.

Ye Hua got out and opened the back door of the car.

Baili Xia helplessly went over.

She stole a glance at Mu Xiaojiu who was sitting beside, mumbling: “Uncle.”

“Yeah.” Mu Xiaojiu responded in a casual tone, his eyes lazily swept over her.

Instantly, his gaze locked onto her left hand.

His eyebrows furrowed, flames leaping in his eyes: “What happened?”

“Ah?” Only then did Baili Xia remember, she had got injuries on her hand.

To avoid Fan Yi’s car earlier, she had fallen and scraped her palm.

It was a tiny scratch, only a few drops of blood had come, she didn’t expect her uncle to notice it.

“Just…I accidentally fell and scraped it on the ground.”

“How can an adult fall while walking?” Mu Xiaojiu’s gaze was full of disdain.

Baili Xia didn’t say anything; her Uncle’s temper had always been like this.

However, indeed it was too clumsy to trip while walking.

“Get in.” Mu Xiaojiu suddenly said casually.

Baili Xia hesitated for a moment, then got in.

Mu Xiaojiu took out a first-aid kit from a secret compartment.

Without uttering a word, he held her hand and sanitized and bandaged it.

His movements were unexpectedly gentle.

Having known him for so long, Baili Xia had never seen him handle anything so gently.

So cautious, as if applying a little more force might hurt her.

Even though she had never seen this side of him before, why did Uncle feel so familiar at this moment?

Like the Uncle, who in her dreams, would gently massage her shoulder?

Truly, very familiar…

…

Saturday morning was the pre-arranged time for the basketball team selection.

As soon as they entered the Imperial College, they headed towards the parking garage.

Baili Xia looked at Mu Xiaojiu, who after bandaging her wound, quietly sat beside and worked.

He was still dressed in a tailored black suit, indistinguishable from usual.

She asked with concern: “Uncle, have you brought your basketball clothes?”

“No need.” Mu Xiaojiu casually responded in three words, his gaze still locked on the laptop screen.
