Chapter 987: With Brother Supporting Her

Baili Xia didn’t want to say much about this, knowing that everyone was just concerned.

But right now, the last thing she needed was their concern.

Because concern couldn’t change anything.

Thinking about this, her mind suddenly became exceptionally clear.

“Maybe, I should go and clarify things with Uncle, ask for his opinion,” Mu Xiaoyao suddenly said.

There would always be a day when things got exposed.

Rather than being caught off guard and scrambling, it might be better to think of a way to handle it sooner.

“No need! Don’t talk to Uncle!” Baili Xia blurted out before realizing she had reacted too strongly.

She paused, trying to compose herself before turning to look at him, “Brother, I don’t need you to speak for me. I’ve said that I will tell him myself.”

Mu Xiaoyao didn’t say much more, not understanding these matters of love between men and women.

She wanted to tell Uncle herself, maybe to surprise him.

If he said not to tell, then she wouldn’t.

The car soon reached the competition venue, and like the last time, members of various major families gathered first before being led to the martial arts field.

As they reached the entrance of the venue, Baili Xia went in first, while Mu Xiaoyao went to park the car.

Entering the competition field, Baili Xia immediately saw the two people she least wanted to see.

Sima Liuli and Ouyang Peishan also saw Baili Xia just as she entered the field.

Enemies on sight, green with envy—the moment they saw her, they unconsciously came up to her.

Seeing the two approaching, Baili Xia slightly furrowed her brows, really not wanting to waste words with others now.

“Hey, the New Miss Mu, you actually dared to come.”

It was Sima Liuli who spoke first, her voice somewhat sharp, sounding extremely harsh.

Baili Xia didn’t want to respond; she turned around and headed towards the Mu Family members at the far end.

Ouyang Peishan quickly stepped in front of Baili Xia, blocking her path.

“What’s the matter? Scared? If you’re scared, then just quit now, to save yourself some embarrassment later.”

Ouyang Peishan was also in a bullying mood, fully refusing to let an advantage slip.

Baili Xia, seeing her path blocked, had to stop and meet Ouyang Peishan’s eyes.

“My mood is off today, don’t provoke me.”

“Ha, it seems like you haven’t been beaten up before,” Ouyang Peishan said with none of the grace expected from a lady, completely the demeanor of a street thug.

Speaking, she moved to grab Baili Xia’s arm.

Just then, Ouyang Peishan suddenly felt the temperature around her drop several degrees.

Looking up, she saw Mu Xiaoyao standing behind Baili Xia, staring at her.

Ouyang Peishan quickly withdrew her reaching hand and turned to leave.

Throwing a threat over her shoulder as she left, “Have the guts not to rely on others. Wait for me in the field.”

Watching the two swiftly leaving, Baili Xia was slightly stunned, then turned around and saw Mu Xiaoyao behind her.

Mu Xiaoyao, still watching the two departing figures, said, “With me here, next time you can just hit them.”

Hearing the icy voice from behind her, Ouyang Peishan and Sima Liuli hurriedly quickened their pace.

Mu was being too partial, siding with that bitch!

It pained them to think how much they liked him!

It must all be because of Baili Xia, definitely that bitch seduced Mu, making him despise them so!

Old hatred and new—today, she would settle all scores with her!

It wasn’t until they were far away that Baili Xia turned back and gave Mu Xiaoyao a faint smile.

This Brother, backing her so openly—wasn’t he being a bit too obvious?
