Chapter 674: Going Back to Sihai Residence Good or Not_1

When Ye Ying walked out of the pavilion, he couldn’t help but glance at Baili Xia.

“Miss Xiaxia, the competition is next weekend. How’s your archery practice going?”

Mr.

Mu wasn’t home today, so no one was there to practice with her.

In hindsight, he should have gone to the back mountain to find her and give her some guidance.

After all, how could a girl practice well on her own?

“It’s going well, I just started practicing. I’ll practice a bit every day, so I shouldn’t bring disgrace to the Mu family.”

Baili Xia smiled at him.

“Do you want me to help?” He asked seriously, “If you need me, just ask the servants to find me.”

Yet, Baili Xia shook her head: “Grandpa has been going out a lot lately, you should keep an eye on him. You don’t have to worry about me, I’m practicing well.”

Ye Ying wanted to say something else, but the old man had already walked far away.

He couldn’t stay any longer.

After taking a deep look at Baili Xia, he nodded at her and quickly chased after the old man.

“The people of the Mu family, they all treat you so well.”

Watching the two figures walking away, Ning Anran couldn’t help but sigh.

“The old man is really nice to you, the way he looked at you just now was as if he was looking at his own granddaughter.”

Baili Xia nodded, gazing at the distant figure of the old man.

Indeed, grandpa was very kind to her, even more so than to his own granddaughter.

It wasn’t that she was overly confident, but she genuinely felt grandpa’s love for her.

It far exceeded that for Mu Ziqing and Mu Ziying.

Perhaps, his relationship with her own grandpa, Baili Yang, was truly closer than with his own siblings.

“And that man, he treats you well too.”

Ning Anran’s eyes are full of laughter, “Anyway, the people of the Mu family are all good to you, Xiaxia, you have to learn to appreciate that.”

“Hmm.” Baili Xia didn’t want to talk about this, and turned around to hold her hand, “Let’s go back.”

Grandpa and Ye Ying were indeed very kind to her.

Now, even Uncle seemed to be willing to be a little gentler to her.

However, she was still uncomfortable in the Mu family.

At first, Uncle threatened her with her mother, not allowing her to flee.

Now that mother is gone, she has no clue where she and Lu An have gone to, and she doesn’t intend to find them.

With the threat from Brother in place, Lu An will not dare to mistreat her mother in this lifetime.

Since she loves that man so much, she should stay with him forever.

Now, she just wants to earn enough money, return it to Uncle, and then, tear up the agreement.

As for her future with her Uncle…

Actually, Baili Xia truly hasn’t given this much thought.

Without the agreement, what’s left between her and Uncle?

But, the two have been unequal from the start, as long as the agreement exists, the inequality persists.

Inequality, how can there be talk about the future?

The future, is just a fairy tale for children.

“Let’s go back.” Holding Ning Anran’s hand, she originally intended to return to Sihai Residence, after all, Ning Anran lived there.

But then, she suddenly turned around and started walking towards the main house.

“Xiaxia, aren’t we going back?” Ning Anran caught up with her, her face full of confusion.

“I live in the main house, Sihai Residence is Uncle’s place, you come live with me.”

She doesn’t feel comfortable being at the Sihai Residence all the time, but she also doesn’t feel comfortable leaving Ning Anran there alone.

“But, Xiaxia… Mr. Xiaojiu… Mr. Xiaojiu asked me to live at Sihai Residence.”

Ning Anran stopped, looking at her profile, her eyes full of hesitation.

“Xiaxia, I…I don’t want to go to the main house, can I go back to Sihai Residence?”
