Chapter 855: These Are Just the Beginning

Baili Xia had been in a daze these past few days, but she knew that Nangong Xu usually visited in the morning, afternoon, and evening.

However, today, she stayed awake all afternoon, and now, as evening approached, he still hadn't appeared.

In the past few days, when she occasionally managed to see his face clearly, it always seemed unwell, as if he was ill.

Thinking of his complexion made Baili Xia even more uneasy.

Bei Tianyou glanced at his wristwatch. "I'm not very familiar with the personnel at Sihai Residence, but around this time, your uncle should be returning."

"Are you leaving?" Baili Xia followed him back to the room.

"I really am leaving this time," Bei Tianyou said, looking at her with a somewhat meaningful gaze. "I mean, I'm going back to Bei Miao."

Because he had been treating her scars, the trip he was supposed to have started three days ago had been stubbornly delayed until tonight.

Nevertheless, as he said, Mu Xiaojiu had indeed done quite a lot for him.
