Holding hands with Uncle, Baili Xia initially felt it was inappropriate.
But, after accidentally seeing those dark eyes of his, she completely forgot everything about her surroundings.
There seemed to be an emotion in his eyes that evoked tenderness.
Baili Xia felt it keenly, her heart involuntarily tightened, as if something sharply pierced her heart.
Uncle... does he feel very lonely?
It's cold at the top; for someone as excellent as Uncle, perhaps he truly feels lonely.
He has always been solitary, even with Ye Hua at his side, but that's just his subordinate.
Being grown men, the two of them don't have much to talk about.
Besides official duties, there might not be any other chance to chat throughout the day.
Baili Xia suddenly realized that Mu Xiaojiu stirred a trace of pity.
After looking at him for a moment, she nodded and agreed to stay.
Dragging a chair over from the desk, Baili Xia sat by the bed and started chatting with Mu Xiaojiu.
