It must be so, she was just grateful to Uncle Si.
For Uncle Si, all she had were gratitude and no complicated feelings.
Baili Xia, believing she understood, looked up and shook her head at Nangong Xu.
"I don't like Uncle Si, nor do I want to be his woman forever."
"That's best. Mr. Xiaojiu needs a woman who is absolute strong, but you...you are too weak."
Baili Xia bit her lip and didn't speak.
Nangong Xu continued, "So, keep your little thoughts to yourself, and stop fantasizing about climbing up to Mr. Xiaojiu, flying up the branch and becoming a phoenix."
"I have not." This was one thing Baili Xia absolutely refused to acknowledge.
"Mr. Nangong, I understand what you mean, but as for this matter, I don't know what Uncle Si's plans are."
"So if he arranges for you to stay by his side, will you stay here forever for him to ruin you?"
Nangong Xu hummed, and suddenly, sneered.
"In your heart, this isn't being ruined, but being cherished, isn't it?"
