Chapter 672: I want to tell Xiaoyao_1

“No, we’re strangers, really! Don’t indulge your imagination,” Baili Xia shakes her head.

“No! You must be very close! You two must have a very good relationship!”

Mu Ziqing tugs, and tugs hard, clutching Baili Xia’s sleeve tight.

“Baili Xia, no, Xiaxia, please help me, you’re the only one who can.”

“I can’t.” Baili Xia immediately rejects.

“You don’t even know what I want.

You can definitely help.”

“I can’t.” She repeats.

“Baili Xia, can you not be so stingy?

I just want a little beauty sacred medicine, just a tiny bit.”

“I don’t have any.”

“Mr.

Bei has some, you ask, and he’ll have it.”

“I don’t have any.”

“I’ll tell Xiaoyao, you two rode on the same horse, and embraced each other on your way back.”

“….” Baili Xia couldn’t be bothered to argue.

Mu Ziqing persists, “I’ll tell everyone, you two had a tryst in the back mountain.”

“…!” This person, she can actually say such a thing, does she have no humanity left?

What about her international glamorous personality, where did that go?

“Xiaxia, please….”

…

In the front courtyard, a girl wanders through a cluster of roses, her face calm.

She doesn’t know how long she’s been here.

She seems to particularly like roses and has been roaming among them.

Sometimes she squats down, plays with the variety of flowers and plants.

Occasionally, she stands up, bends over, and takes a good whiff of the roses.

Afterwards, she carefully looks around.

Ensuring no one is approaching before gingerly picking a rose, crushing its petals, and painting them on her nails.

Placed under the sunlight, the painted nails are light in colour, but it adds a certain flavour.

The girl stretches her hand out, facing the sunlight, admiring the subtle colour of her nails.

Her eyes crinkled, the smile on the corner of her lips is unspeakably sweet.

Perhaps she is too absorbed that even when someone approached her slowly, she was completely unaware.

She turned around, intending to continue her stroll among the roses.

Unexpectedly, as she turned, she almost bumped into someone.

“Be careful!” Bewildered, the voice from behind that person echoes.

Ning Anran jumps in surprise, stepping back a few paces before finally stopping.

In her sight, a man, about seventy years old, stands quietly there.

His gaze is fixed on her hand….

Ning Anran feels a bit uneasy and wants to hastily retract her hands.

However, the elder suddenly, gently says, “Let me see… your fingernails.”

Ning Anran is startled, perplexed, she looks helplessly at the silhouette behind the elder.

The shadow nods reassuringly at her, “This is Lord Mu of our Mu family.”

Oh, it’s Sir Mu!

He’s such a renowned figure!

Ning Anran’s heart flutters, she hardly dares to breathe.

Looking at Sir Mu, she timidly says, “Sir…sir, hello, I…

am….”

“You’re the schoolmate Xiaxia brought back?” Sir Mu looks at her with a complex gaze.

Although his eyes are gentle, there seems to be something constantly twinkling in their depths.

It’s like he’s reminiscing something.

“Yes, I’m Xiaxia’s classmate, my name is Ning Anran.”

Ning Anran still maintains a cautious expression, afraid of offending him with careless words.

This is the head of the Mu family, well-known throughout Jin City, Lord Mu.

If she offends him, she won’t be able to remain in Jin City, and also cause trouble for Xiaxia, right?
