It was only when Baili Xia was sent back to the backyard that Wu Ming turned around and disappeared into a corner of the backyard.
Back in her room, Baili Xia took a bath and then sprawled out on the bed with her limbs spread wide.
She was exhausted, praying fervently that Uncle wouldn't come looking for her, as she was so tired she could barely move her fingers.
Fortunately, she fell into a deep sleep, and Uncle didn't send anyone to call her...
...
The next morning, Baili Xia lay in bed feeling even more sore than before.
Her entire body felt as if it had fallen apart, and if it weren't for the upcoming exam, Baili Xia would probably not have gotten out of bed at all today.
Dragging her heavy footsteps, Baili Xia moved slowly to the restroom.
After washing up and finally changing her clothes, she immediately headed to the main house's dining room.
By the time she arrived at the dining room, everyone was already eating, and Mu Ziying had come over this morning too.
