"First promise me you won't tell Uncle about this."
What's all this about silence at meals, when he never shuts up?
Mu Lingchuan ignored her, she had repeated this so many times in front of him.
"Big Brother," Baili Xia pleaded with him, her face a mask of despair.
"Please help me, Big Brother. You know Uncle is volatile. If he finds out, he would definitely kill me."
"Uncle is not as terrifying as you make him out to be. Don't slander him."
Mu Lingchuan glanced at her, pushing the plate of tender beef in front of her.
Baili Xia immediately picked up two pieces, chewed them vigorously, and swallowed before turning her attention back to him.
Before she began to plead again, Mu Lingchuan interrupted her.
"You don't even let me eat in peace, what help could I offer? Let me eat well first."
"So, does that mean you agree?" Baili Xia's eyes immediately lit up with joy.
Mu Lingchuan grunted, ignoring her and continued eating.
