Kapitel 85: Chapter 88: My People, Play However You Want 12_1

"Miss Xiaxia, when new to a place, there's always a period of adjustment, just as I had."

Night Shadow sincerely said to her, "But trust me, it gets better."

"If anyone in this household bullies you, tell me, I will stand by you."

"Why? We have no connection. Is there a need for you to help me?"

"Because your eyes are too kind, and this family..."

Night Shadow paused, seeming reluctant to speak ill of the Mu family. Yet, some truths were irrefutable, regardless of whether he spoke them or not.

"The family dynamic is complex. The overt and covert struggles between the elder and second master are an open secret, albeit they appear to get along."

Baili Xia was stunned, having not expected him to reveal this to her.

Night Shadow chuckled, then continued, "Miss Xiaxia, as of now, you pose no real threat to them. Perhaps it's because the patriarch favors you that everyone keeps an extra eye on you."
