"No, I won't go back with you. I will find another way to deal with Grandpa's issue."
Baili Xia took another step back, far enough away from Mu Xiaoyao, before she continued, "I'm going back to the dorm first. I still have things to do."
As she turned to leave, Mu Xiaoyao's long legs moved, and he stepped in front of her.
Baili Xia almost couldn't stop her momentum, nearly crashing straight into his embrace.
Mu Xiaoyao reached out to grasp her shoulders, stabilizing her posture.
Baili Xia got a start as well, pushing him hard and immediately taking two steps back.
Seeing her guard up against him at every turn, Mu Xiaoyao felt a bitter taste in his heart.
He hadn't thought about harming her. Why was she treating him as an enemy?
Watching her face grow pale, he said indifferently, "Even if you don't go back to Mu Mansion, you can't stay at the school."
"Uncle won't allow you to stay here. Sooner or later, you'll have to return."
