Chapter 376 Think it over carefully
Mu Xiaoyu remained silent, not uttering a word. Her eyes were lowered, as if she were pondering something, or perhaps preparing something.
Bai Luo had mustered all her courage to come and tell Mu Xiaoyu all this. On the way here, she had imagined countless possibilities: the disappointment in Mu Xiaoyu's eyes, Mu Xiaoyu's anger, and so on.
But no one expected Mu Xiaoyu to be so silent.
For a moment, Bai Luo felt even more uneasy.
She looked at Mu Xiaoyu uneasily, about to speak, when Mu Xiaoyu suddenly looked up at her.
"Lolo, you're my friend, and honestly, I really want to believe what you're saying. But what you're saying is just too unbelievable, and I can't believe you right away. Do you... have any evidence to prove it?"
Mu Xiaoyu was very careful with her words. She didn't want to hurt Bai Luo, but this was a step she had to take. Only in this way could she ensure that, while believing Bai Luo's words, the people around her wouldn't be hurt again.
Bai Luo was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. Clearly, she hadn't expected Mu Xiaoyu to ask such a question.
She was a little sad, but then she thought about what her family had done. If it were her, she probably wouldn't have met with the people who had hurt her at this time.
So Bai Luo understood very well, but... she only found out about these things by chance. At the time, her mind was a mess, and she never thought about collecting evidence.
Now that Mu Xiaoyu said this, she suddenly realized that she didn't seem to have any evidence to prove that what she had just said was true.
Bai Luo was somewhat troubled. Looking at Mu Xiaoyu's serious expression, she didn't know what to do for a moment.
Mu Xiaoyu didn't say anything. She couldn't say too much at this time. If she did, Bai Luo would think about it carefully and figure out that she already knew about these things.
So now, Mu Xiaoyu can only wait.
"Sister Xiaoyu, how about this..."
After an unknown amount of time, Bai Luo suddenly spoke. She had overheard the conversation between Old Master Bai and Bai Ye by chance, only because she had returned home early. Therefore, she didn't know much, and Bai Ye and the others were unaware that Bai Luo now knew about their actions.
According to what Bai Luo overheard, Bai Ye and his group would continue to harm Mu Xiaoyu and the others. If Bai Luo was truly sincere, then she could take advantage of this opportunity to help Mu Xiaoyu and the others escape this time and aid them.
After listening to Bai Luo's words, Mu Xiaoyu still didn't answer immediately. She neither said yes nor no, but stared at Bai Luo with complicated eyes for a long while before speaking, "Luo Luo, do you know that if what you just said is true, we and the Bai family will inevitably be in a confrontational situation? And in that case, it's either you die or I live. For you, the worst outcome would be that Old Master Bai and your older brother would probably both face imprisonment. Do you know all this?"
Bai Luo was stunned when she heard this. Clearly, she had acted impulsively when she came to find Mu Xiaoyu and hadn't thought about these issues at all.
Hearing Mu Xiaoyu's words, her face turned deathly pale. She stared blankly at Mu Xiaoyu, her lips trembling as she said, "I...I don't know..."
"Lolo, go back and think it over carefully. If you've figured it out, I won't blame you for whatever you want to do. However, if you choose to side with Grandpa Bai and his group, I hope you won't get involved in these matters. I don't want my friends to be my enemies, understand?"
If everything Bai Luo said today was for her sake, Mu Xiaoyu didn't want to involve Bai Luo in it.
Moreover, in Mu Xiaoyu's view, the Bai family's defeat was absolutely inevitable. At that time, just as she had just said, the Bai family's descendants would inevitably face imprisonment, and in more serious cases, they might even face the death penalty.
These two people are Bai Luo's closest relatives. Can Bai Luo withstand such a blow?
Bai Luo remained silent for a long time. The instant he heard Mu Xiaoyu's words, all that flashed through his mind was the image of Bai Ye and Old Master Bai going to prison.
Even if the victim in this incident wasn't Mu Xiaoyu, but someone else, Bai Luo wouldn't let it go unpunished.
However, if she really intervenes, the Bai family will truly be ruined.
Is it worth it?
Bai Luo's mind was in complete turmoil. At this moment, he even regretted his rashness and regretted not thinking things through before rushing over to find Mu Xiaoyu.
Even so, she didn't regret telling Mu Xiaoyu about these things.
Mu Xiaoyu is not only her idol, but also her good friend, and she doesn't want to see Mu Xiaoyu get hurt in any way.
"Sister Xiaoyu, I will think about this matter carefully. But if... that day really comes, I hope Mr. Li can consider our relationship and let Grandpa and my older brother off the hook."
After a long silence, Bai Luo finally spoke. As he spoke, his eyes were filled with pleading for Mu Xiaoyu.
After a few seconds of silence, Mu Xiaoyu nodded and agreed: "I can agree to what you said. But Luo Luo, don't you have any resentment towards Grandpa Bai and the others?"
Regardless of whether the Bai family was involved in the kidnapping, one thing is certain: they knew immediately when Bai Luo was kidnapped by Mu Pengzheng.
But at that time, it was Mu Xiaoyu and Li Chenxu who ultimately went to save Bai Luo.
They are clearly her closest relatives, yet they treat her like this. If it were Mu Xiaoyu, she wouldn't feel good either.
Bai Luo gave a bitter smile. Although she had stopped crying, her expression looked as if she was about to cry again.
She looked at Mu Xiaoyu with a lost expression and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm heartbroken, of course I'm heartbroken, but what's the use of being heartbroken? They gave me life and raised me. Even if they used me, they were still kind to me in the past. Besides, I'm still a member of the Bai family. No matter how heartbroken or resentful I am, it's useless."
Bai Luo smiled as she finished speaking, then looked at Mu Xiaoyu and, before she could speak, said, "Sister Xiaoyu, I won't say more. I'll think about this carefully when I get back. I just hope you won't hate me."
After saying that, Bai Luo left the house without waiting for Mu Xiaoyu's reply.
Mu Xiaoyu stood there, her gaze following the direction Bai Luo had left in, and didn't look away until Bai Luo's figure completely disappeared from her sight...
