Ning An Ran's heart belonged to Mr. Xiaojiu; she was determined to protect him with her life!
"If people find out, even though there's no blood relation, him and the niece his family is known to have, being together, that stain would certainly tarnish his reputation."
Baili Xia remained silent, just watching her back.
The wind blew, lifting the strands of Ning An Ran's hair that were now longer than her shoulders, fluttering lightly.
Upon closer inspection, one could suddenly realize that this girl was actually quite pretty.
Ning An Ran eventually noticed that Baili Xia was distracted, and seeing her indifferent demeanor infuriated her.
"Don't you care at all? Don't you ever consider his feelings? Xiaxia, you weren't like this before!"
"You weren't like this before either," Baili Xia responded with a faint smile, her clear, sparkling eyes blinking slightly as they met Ning An Ran's gaze.
