Chapter 923: What If Someone Gets Hurt

Baili Xia still harbored doubts, she was truly frightened, afraid of what might be inside her stomach…

What if it was damaged, what would she do?

“Uncle, I today… today… don’t want to.”

She knew that her refusals had never been effective, if he wanted it, he never cared about her resistance.

Just like now, even though she voiced her refusal, Uncle still pulled her over, turning over to press down upon her.

His heavy body pressed down, his head burying into the crook of her neck.

This pressure, it terrified Baili Xia into panic, at times she almost wished she could forcefully push him away.

The way he pressed down, could it harm her stomach?

“Uncle, Unc… Jiu, I really don’t want to.” He was always so frenzied; her stomach couldn’t bear it.

“Jiu… mmh…” When his kiss came, that sick feeling surged up again.

This time, Baili Xia couldn’t care less about anything else, and forcefully pushed him away.

Mu Xiaojiu wasn’t pushed away, but he did lift his body slightly, no longer pressing down on her closely.

His deep eyes stared unblinkingly at the girl beneath him, his gaze somewhat dazed.

Baili Xia barely managed to suppress the urge to vomit, looking up at him, this time speaking earnestly,

“Jiu, I really don’t want to tonight, please, don’t… always force me like before.”

He still didn’t speak, nor did he let go, his gaze growing even more somber.

Baili Xia realized perhaps her words were a bit hurtful, she blinked and said, “I… I don’t mean that, just, tonight I really don’t want to.”

But he lowered his head again.

Baili Xia really couldn’t understand what he was thinking; there was no reaction from his body, and with them so close, she would definitely feel it if he had any urge.

But tonight, he clearly didn’t desire her, yet he remained like this, not speaking…

The heart of a man is as deep as the sea, truly difficult to fathom.

“Jiu…” Suddenly, she furrowed her brow, finally managing to free her hand that he was pressing down on and immediately reached for his forehead.

As soon as she felt his forehead, she cried out in alarm, “Jiu, you have a fever!”

She tried to push him, but couldn’t move him, continuing to push harder, “Jiu, come down, you have a fever, lie down properly.”

This time, Mu Xiaojiu finally listened to her, rolling off her, and quietly lying beside her.

Baili Xia immediately took a thermometer from the nightstand drawer and placed it under his arm.

Feeling his large hand, it was ice-cold.

She immediately took off his shoes and felt the soles of his feet.

His hands and feet were ice-cold, only his forehead, neck, nostrils, and the breath from his mouth felt burning hot.

What on earth was wrong with this guy?

Now that Uncle was in her bed, she needed to find the family doctor but had no idea how to explain the situation to the doctor.

In the middle of the night, a man and a woman alone…

who would believe they’re innocent?

This would definitely reach Grandfather’s ears.

After thinking for a moment, she suddenly turned to leave the room.

But the man on the bed extended his hand, grabbing hold of her small hand before she could depart.

“Uncle, I’m just stepping out for a moment, I’ll be right back.”

Mu Xiaojiu just stared at her, not letting go.

Baili Xia was at her wit’s end, why was Uncle acting like a child pining for candy tonight?

Although he was silent, not making a sound.

But at this moment, how was this different from making a fuss with her?

“Behave, I’ll be back soon, I’ll definitely come back quickly, I promise.”

She coaxed him as if calming a child, and after who knew how long, Baili Xia finally managed to pull her hand free from Mu Xiaojiu’s grasp.

Seeing that enough time had passed, she also took the thermometer from under Mu Xiaojiu’s arm.

At a glance, she was nearly petrified with shock.

Forty-one degrees, such a high temperature, it could ruin him!
