Baili Xia's smile—this time, Mu Xiaojiu truly couldn't decipher it at all.
For some reason, hidden within that smile, he felt a trace of unease.
His fingertips trembled slightly, and the cigarette almost slipped from his fingers.
Mu Xiaojiu hurriedly tightened his grip on the cigarette, striving not to let anyone see the fleeting moment of panic.
When he looked at her again, his expression had completely hardened: "Alright."
"Everyone says Mr. Xiaojiu always keeps his word. I trust you. This time, I'll make sure to behave."
Baili Xia turned around and quickened her pace as she headed out of the stone forest.
Mu Xiaojiu followed behind her, initially unsure where she intended to go, until he saw Mu Xiaoyao approaching.
Baili Xia ran out of the stone forest, rushing toward Mu Xiaoyao.
As she exited the forest, Mu Xiaoyao spotted her immediately.
