Be Gentle, My Master

“Anyway, Brother and Master aren’t interested in such things, let alone Ye Hua,”

That guy follows Uncle around all day long, with a sour temper, asking him?

Better not think about it.

“Uncle came back today,” Mu Xiaoyao continued to walk ahead of her, picking vegetables.

Thinking about it, Mr.

Mu, spending all day with her in this place, leisurely picking flowers and vegetables, really wasn’t easy.

He originally came over because he was worried Uncle might do something, but now it seemed that Uncle was extremely fond of this girl.

His presence here was becoming superfluous.

He hinted to Uncle a couple of days ago that he wanted to leave the island to take care of some business, but Uncle’s response of “you promised her not to leave,” immediately rejected all his requests outright.

He had promised Baili Xia not to leave, but, going back for a day or two to sort things out didn’t count as “leaving,” right?

At worst, one day?

Half a day?

Finish and come right back, wouldn’t that be okay?

But clearly, Uncle meant, it wasn’t okay.

Uncle also said that the girl liked to “play” with him, so, he had to stay obediently and play with her…

This “play” word made Mu Xiaoyao frustrated and sleepless all night.

The eminent Mr.

Mu, reduced to a “playmate,” was truly pitiful.

Yet Baili Xia, because of his words, paused for a moment.

After the moment, she still pouted: “Even if Ye Hua comes back with Uncle, he won’t want to accompany me, we’re not familiar.”

Mu Xiaoyao glanced back at her, really wanting to knock on her head.

Couldn’t she listen to the key points when hearing things?

Who was talking about Ye Hua?

He said Uncle came back today!

This girl, sometimes smart as a whip, other times dumb as a post.

Baili Xia, feeling his disdainful gaze, had a moment of tingling scalp, then suddenly realized why he was looking at her in that way.

Uncle’s back…

But, even Uncle!

Considering his recent attitude towards her, expecting Uncle to accompany her to watch a meteor shower was really like seeing a ghost!

“That stingy Uncle, I’m not counting on him.”

She bowed her head and walked silently ahead.

Here on the mid-mountain, the wind was too loud, giving her no chance to notice the surroundings.

Mu Xiaoyao sneakily glanced at the man not far behind her, and as for that “stingy” comment, he could only cough lightly, pretending not to hear.

Those weren’t his words; a debt has its debtor, don’t come to him for retribution.

However, seeing Uncle doting on that girl lately, retribution seemed out of the question.

It was clear that a certain man, after being called a “stingy goblin,” really felt stingy enough to want to leave immediately.

He quickly caught up with Baili Xia and spoke the useful information aloud.

“There’s a spot near here that’s particularly good for viewing meteor showers.”

“Where is it?” Although she knew no one would accompany her and they wouldn’t let her go alone,

Baili Xia couldn’t help but ask.

“Not far from here, by the cliff edge,” Mu Xiaoyao said, not sure for whom his words were really meant.

His voice was so loud that even against the wind it could be heard clearly.

“The top of the cliff is the best place to watch the stars, it’s just that the path is a bit rough, you probably couldn’t make it on your own.”

“Are you talking about…

the cliff where Uncle and the others train?”

Baili Xia paused, thought about it, and still shook her head: “I can’t climb it either.”
