Uncle didn't come to see her all of last night, and now seeing him here, Baili Xia's heart soured again upon seeing that tall figure.
Mu Xiaoyao wrapped his arm around her waist, and Baili Xia finally snapped back to reality.
The two walked into the side hall, where Mu Xiaoyao pulled out a chair for her to sit down.
Baili Xia turned her head to greet Sir Mu, whom she hadn't seen for many days: "Sir Mu, how are you?"
"Heard you hurt your foot, is it better now?"
Sir Mu deliberately kept a stern face, not wanting to show closeness to her.
Yet, knowing that she had injured her foot, he had felt uneasy all along and had always wanted to go see her.
But in the end, he held back.
Instead of going himself, he sent Feng Gang to check on her and see if she needed anything.
Seeing her come downstairs today, although she still looked a bit pale, she seemed to be alright.
