Baili Xia ran back to the main house in one breath, then up to the second floor, and into her own room.
Once the door closed behind her, leaning against it, only then did she fiercely realize the path in between had been so very long.
She was now so tired she didn't even have the strength to breathe.
Her legs gave out, she slid onto the floor, and simply didn't get up, hugging her knees and gasping for air.
She had slapped Uncle, she had actually slapped him in the face just now!
Such a proud man as Uncle, slapped in the face by a girl, how furious must he be now?
But why did Uncle say those words on purpose to provoke her?
Don't think she can't see through it, he was deliberately humiliating her, does he want her to leave his side?
Uncle must be facing huge challenges and dangers right now, that's why he doesn't want her to stay by his side.
Having gone through so much, if she couldn't even see this, what right did she have to like him?
