Chapter 826: Things Begin to Slowly Make Sense

No matter what she wanted or what she wished to do, when had Nangong Xu ever refused her?

Except, of course, if it was something that wasn't good for her.

Sometimes, she even treated Nangong Xu like an elder, unconsciously acting coquettish in his presence.

Damn, it really seemed inappropriate to call him "Mr. Nangong."

"…Master." Baili Xia blinked, looking at Nangong Xu, "Master… is that okay?"

Having studied medical arts under him for so long, it felt right to respectfully address him as Master.

Even though he had never said she was his disciple.

Nangong Xu's starry eyes turned somber, not answering immediately, lost in thought.

"If you don't like it, then… then forget it…"

"Okay." Nangong Xu nodded, not adding much else, and continued eating the lobster meat.

Baili Xia was still catching up with his reaction, and upon glancing at his calm face again, a slow smile climbed to the tips of her eyebrows.

"Master," she sweetly called out again.
