Chapter 156 Meeting the Family

Chapter 156 Meeting the Family

It wasn’t the right time to bring this up with Bai Mu, since Xiao Hua couldn’t explain how she knew about it.

Just the fact that there were other people in the car made it impossible for her to spill everything.

It wasn’t that she didn’t trust them, but human nature isn’t something you should test, and she didn’t need to spill everything like an idiot.

But when it came to Bai Mu, Xiao Hua suddenly felt the urge to tell him everything about her experiences, without holding anything back.

She was startled by her own thoughts; she had never had such dangerous ideas before.

What if Bai Mu screws her over later? She’d be completely screwed, and she might as well play her own funeral song.

Forget it, Xiao Hua pushed those thoughts deep down; she’d talk about it later.

Even if she were to tell him, she’d have to get all of Bai Mu’s secrets out first.

She couldn’t afford to be at a disadvantage.

They made it back to Base F City without a hitch, and everyone went about their usual tasks. Bai Mu and Xiao Zui went to report back, while the others went straight back to the villa.

This time, they finished quickly. Xiao Hua hadn’t even settled in before Bai Mu and Xiao Zui pushed open the villa door and came in.

Bai Mu came in and sat right down next to Xiao Hua, taking her hand that was resting on the sofa and giving it a gentle squeeze.

Xiao Hua glanced over, "What's up?"

Bai Mu cleared his throat, "Uncle is coming over for dinner tonight to celebrate our successful mission."

Xiao Hua: "..."

They completed the task in this way, and General Zou could still praise them for it.

Xiao Zui glanced at Xiao Hua and actually smiled. "The General knows you're together and found an excuse to come and see."

Xiao Hua: "..."

Xiao Hua sat up straight, her expression calm and her tone steady. "Oh, that's good."

Xiao Zui raised an eyebrow in surprise. "You're not nervous?"

Xiao Hua not only didn't seem anxious but could even joke about it.

"It's not like I haven't seen him before, and besides, there's Brother Bai. If General Zou really doesn't approve of us being together, then... well, I wouldn't give a damn about him."

Bai Mu suddenly laughed, looking at Xiao Hua's calm exterior, he couldn't help but chuckle. "Xiao Hua is really something, not nervous at all."

Xiao Hua felt her hand being held and only then noticed that her palm was sweaty, also making Bai Mu's palm damp.

Xiao Hua: "..."

Xiao Hua stared at him expressionlessly, with a look that said, "If you dare to embarrass me, I won't speak to you for three months."

Bai Mu naturally didn't dare. He stopped joking around, stood up and led Xiao Hua upstairs.

In Bai Mu's bedroom.

Xiao Hua looked at the closed door and finally relaxed, no longer pretending to be tough. She suddenly buried her head in her hands, looking at Bai Mu with a sorrowful expression.

"Brother Bai, what should I do?"

Bai Mu was amused by her expression, gently pinched her cheek, and then leaned over to kiss her, "It's okay, just be yourself like before."

Xiao Hua wasn’t in the mood for this and quickly pushed him away, "But before we weren’t together, it’s definitely different now."

"Really, it’s okay." Bai Mu still smiled at her, stroking the black hair on her head, "Anyway, Uncle already knew I liked you, he’s ready for it."

Xiao Hua: "???"

Xiao Hua blinked, staring at him, and repeated, "He already knew?"

Bai Mu sighed, feigning sadness, "The old fox is still the sharpest, he saw it from the get-go."

Xiao Hua was silent for a moment, "So it was noticed that early?"

Bai Mu nodded innocently.

Although it was also because he never hid it, but since he was indeed noticed, he couldn’t be blamed for it.

Seeing Xiao Hua’s obvious nervousness, Bai Mu hugged her tightly and comforted her, "Uncle always knew I was chasing you. You just need to act a bit aloof and focus on eating."

Xiao Hua nodded absentmindedly.
