Chapter 793: Now The Wings Are Not Yet Full_1

The group left the archery field, heading to where the sightseeing cars were parked.

Maybe because of the man’s visage that bore a hint of a foul mood, even the usually chattering Mu Ziying kept her words to a minimum.

Someone must have said something wrong to upset the uncle.

Anyway, the uncle…he was so icy now!

“Xiaxia.” On the verge of boarding the car, a warm and mellow voice called to her from behind.

Baili Xia blinked, turning her head to meet Dongfang Jin’s gaze.

“I heard that you won the individual championship.” Dongfang Jin approached her, oblivious to Dongfang Ji at his side.

Once he arrived here, his eyes were completely fixated on her.

“It’s a pity that the elders have not set individual awards for the sake of unity, otherwise, you would have been the highlight of the day.”

“Even without the awards, our Xiaxia was already the focus of the day.”

With a jolly laugh, Mu Ziying turned her head and confidently grabbed Baili Xia’s arm.

“Our Xiaxia scored the highest points in the entire field today, hitting the bullseye eight times in a row!

Do you know?

Eight times in a row!

Even in the men’s group, hardly anyone could manage that, right?”

“Ziying, stop talking nonsense.” Baili Xia glanced at her and shook her head.

The girls passing by were watching her with increasingly annoyed gazes.

If Mu Ziying kept making a noise, she would soon become everyone’s enemy.

Winning itself would incite others’ envy, let alone stir up more trouble with loose talk, who knows how many enemies she might make?

“Yes, in all matters, it is better to keep a low profile, after all, Xiaxia’s standing in the Eight Big Families is still not established.”

“Regardless of her standing, it’s still the Mu family’s business to protect her, it’s not up for others to meddle.”

From the front, a chilly voice floated over, making Baili Xia couldn’t help rubbing her forehead.

Are the two of them going to start again?

Can’t they let people have some peace?

However, this time, neither Mu Xiaojiu nor Dongfang Jin seemed inclined to quarrel.

They didn’t know what was going on in each other’s minds.

After a glance, they ignored each other.

“Ziying, we’re all in good spirits today, why not celebrate a little?”

Dongfang Ji walked up to Mu Ziying, smiling at her, “Aren’t you going to celebrate for Xiaxia?”

“Sure, we were just planning to go back first for lunch and then go out in the afternoon to buy groceries, weren’t we?”

Mu Ziying quietly stepped back.

Dongfang Ji was smiling at her, but she always felt that he was too dangerous.

Therefore, without realising it, she backed away.

“Go buy groceries?

You’re going personally?” Dongfang Ji frowned, staring at her delicate rosy face, “The market can be pretty dirty and chaotic, you know?”

Mu Ziying pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.

On the other hand, Baili Xia glanced at Dongfang Ji and smiled, “Sister Ziying is virtuous and good, she doesn’t mind the mess, she would definitely be a good wife in the future.”

“Alright, I’ll go with you.” As soon as he heard “good wife”, Dongfang Ji immediately beamed with joy.

“I don’t need you to accompany me.” Mu Ziying turned to leave.

Dongfang Ji quickly stepped forward to catch up, his voice full of laughter echoing in the wind, “If I don’t accompany you, I’ll be worried. What about the lecherous wolves at the marketplace…”

As they trailed off into the distance, Baili Xia was also preparing to leave.

However, Dongfang Jin suddenly asked, “Got any plans for tonight?”

Baili Xia hesitated a bit, afraid that the squabbling between him and her uncle would start again.

But knowing that Mu Xiaojiu was watching them from not far away, she suddenly didn’t feel like being so obedient.

She lifted her lips into a sweet smile, “Tonight we’re going to the beach for a barbecue. How about coming with us, Jin?”
