Chapter 437 You don't need to be so wary of me
Mu Xiaoyu wasn't the kind of innocent girl who would easily forgive others. If she could, she would have even wanted to get back at Old Master Li for the severe treatment he had dealt her.
However, she is now all alone and helpless. If she were to do that, she would inevitably have to rely on the help of those around her.
Before she knew Bai Ye's feelings for her, she had always planned to seduce him and extract useful information from him. But now, she decided to abandon her previous plans and stay away from Bai Ye from now on.
That's why Mu Xiaoyu said that when she heard Bai Ye's words.
Bai Ye was taken aback upon hearing this, clearly not expecting Mu Xiaoyu to say that it was just a matter of letting it go. Although Bai Ye didn't know Mu Xiaoyu as well as Li Chenxu, he knew a bit about her personality and understood that she wasn't as weak as she appeared. If he hadn't offended Mu Xiaoyu, that would have been fine, but if he had, given Mu Xiaoyu's temperament, she definitely wouldn't have let it go so easily.
But now, Mu Xiaoyu says forget it.
For a moment, Bai Ye even stopped massaging Mu Xiaoyu.
He frowned as he looked at Mu Xiaoyu, clearly not understanding why Mu Xiaoyu would say that.
Mu Xiaoyu felt a little uncomfortable under Bai Ye's gaze, afraid that he might suspect something, so she quickly added, "I just divorced Li Chenxu. If I get involved with the Li family again at this time, there will only be more and more trouble. I'll just treat this as being bitten by a dog and stay away from the Li family in the future. As for the rest, there's no need to bother with anything else."
This explanation was plausible, but Bai Ye clearly didn't want to let it go so easily. He looked at Mu Xiaoyu, seemingly wanting to say something, but before he could speak, his gaze met Mu Xiaoyu's determined eyes, and he swallowed the rest of his words.
He looked at Mu Xiaoyu in silence for a long time before saying, "Since you don't want to, then forget it. But for your safety, I'll leave a few people with you to protect you when you're discharged from the hospital."
"no need!"
This time, Mu Xiaoyu refused almost without thinking. No matter the reason, she would never agree to Bai Ye's request.
She was truly grateful to Bai Ye for saving her this time. After all, if it weren't for Bai Ye, she might have died in the Li family at any time without even knowing it.
One thing is one thing, but she doesn't want to live under Bai Ye's surveillance all the time.
Thinking of this, Mu Xiaoyu calmed herself down slightly. She endured the pain in her head, looked up at Bai Ye firmly, and said, "Mr. Bai, I am very grateful to you for what happened this time. If there is anything you need me for in the future, I, Mu Xiaoyu, will definitely not refuse. However, I also hope that Mr. Bai will not waste any more time or effort on me in the future..."
As she spoke, Mu Xiaoyu took a deep breath, hesitating whether to continue. After all, no matter how ambiguous Bai Ye's words and actions were, he had never actually told her he liked her. Although everything was obvious now, what if... what if it was all just her imagination and delusion? How awkward would it be if she said what she was about to say?
However, if things aren't clarified now, their relationship will definitely not be as easy to sever in the future.
In the end, after much thought, Mu Xiaoyu decided to clarify the rest of the matter.
"Furthermore, Mr. Bai, although I am now divorced from Li Chenxu and have considered starting a new life and marrying someone else, that 'someone else,' whoever it may be, will not be you, you understand?"
"Because of Bai Luo?"
Bai Ye's thick, dark eyebrows immediately furrowed. Although he didn't intentionally try to scare Mu Xiaoyu, his unpleasant mood unconsciously revealed his terrifying aura.
Seeing this, Mu Xiaoyu really felt that Bai Ye and Li Chenxu had indeed imagined many things.
Her throat tightened slightly, but she managed to maintain her composure in front of Bai Ye: "Bai Luo's reason is only one aspect. The most important thing is that Mr. Bai, you are simply not my type. Whether in the past or in the future, I will never like you. After my divorce from Li Chenxu, I also told Song Yin that if I were to start over with someone else, that person would be Song Bai, not you, Mr. Bai."
Mu Xiaoyu's words were already quite straightforward. Bai Ye wasn't someone who showed his emotions outwardly; such people were extremely concerned about their reputation. Under normal circumstances, since Mu Xiaoyu had already put things this way, Bai Ye should at least give up on showing his injuries.
However, to Mu Xiaoyu's surprise, Bai Ye didn't even blink after hearing her words. He simply looked at her calmly and asked, "Miss Mu, have you said everything you wanted to say?"
Whether before or now, Mu Xiaoyu has never been able to figure out what Bai Ye is thinking. This person, like Li Chenxu, seems unfathomable. At this moment, Mu Xiaoyu is even more confused about what Bai Ye is thinking. So when she heard him ask this question, she hesitated for a few seconds before nodding.
"Now that Miss Mu has said everything she wanted to say, I will now say what I want to say."
It was unclear what Bai Ye was trying to say, but after saying this, he sat down by the hospital bed and looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a relaxed air.
His attitude only made Mu Xiaoyu understand him even less.
"Now that I think about it, I realize I've never actually expressed my feelings for you to Miss Mu. Yes, Mu Xiaoyu should have noticed that I do like you. And I've liked you for much longer than you think. I'm not as good as you appear on the surface. When I first fell for you, I even thought about how I could win you over, I considered all sorts of methods."
As he said this, Bai Ye looked intently at Mu Xiaoyu, his gaze filled with a strong possessiveness and a hint of madness—a look that Mu Xiaoyu was all too familiar with.
When she and Li Chenxu first got together, Li Chenxu looked at her with those same eyes.
At that time, Li Chenxu obtained her through force and coercion.
At that moment, Mu Xiaoyu immediately changed her opinion of Bai Ye, and her gaze towards Bai Ye was now filled with obvious wariness.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyu's emotions so openly displayed, Bai Ye withdrew his previous gaze and suddenly laughed at Mu Xiaoyu: "You don't need to be so wary of me, this was just my previous thought."
