Chapter 887: Chapter 887: With Affection or Without?

"Sir, I have to go away for a while to take care of some business. You must listen to Miss here, help alleviate her worries and not cause her any trouble. Make sure to eat well and sleep well."

Ah Dao’s words carried an implication—it wouldn’t do to replicate this morning’s act of kicking the lady out of bed!

However, Li Wenli didn’t understand and simply thought this person was being terribly long-winded.

Bai Junjun, on the other hand, felt somewhat moved. Unknowingly, Ah Dao had grown up!

In the past, Ah Dao followed Li Wenli like a shadow, seemingly wanting to stick around even if it was just a trip to the bathroom. Now, he could leave Li Wenli for a whole month, especially when the Fox is in such a state where he could easily succumb to demonic poison. It was truly not easy for Ah Dao to let go.

Therefore, Bai Junjun comforted him with a promise: "Don’t worry, I will look after him. By the time you return, the Fox will surely have recovered."

Ah Dao bowed to Bai Junjun with gratitude: "Thank you, Miss!"

After everything was settled here, Ah Dao cast a complicated glance at Wu Nuan. It seemed as if he were struggling with whether or not to say something to her.

Bai Junjun immediately understood: "You two talk, we’ll take a stroll outside."

"..." Wu Nuan.

"..." Ah Dao.

A pair of old men and two maids looked at them with gossipy little eyes, clearly curious.

They had noticed the change in the dynamics between the two over the past few days.

Ah Dao would always find excuses to look at Wu Nuan and often followed her, vying for work, whereas Wu Nuan remained cool throughout, her face a picture of avoidance.

But if there was truly nothing between them, why would one eagerly take on work while the other conspicuously avoid it?

Those with experience saw through it but chose to stay silent. Yet Junjun Girl was straightforward in addressing it, successfully embarrassing both.

Now eyeing each other, Wu Nuan erased a hint of embarrassment from her gaze and calmly replied, "There’s no need for private words. We’re all companions, take care on your trip."

"Okay." Watching Wu Nuan continuously avoid any intimations, a flicker of disappointment crossed Ah Dao’s eyes.

Just then, Wu Nuan recalled something and added, "My uncle... please take care of him for me."

Finally, a sparkle lit up Ah Dao’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but smile: "I will bring Senior Qiao back in one piece."

Wu Nuan was visibly touched, and even the two Maids gratefully bowed to Ah Dao: "May Ah Dao return safely."

Ah Dao bowed to everyone once more and left without delay.

The group unconsciously watched Ah Dao’s retreating figure, feeling the tall youth in black clothing and with a black sword on his back seemed as reliable as a mountain.

From Ah Dao’s silhouette, Bai Junjun perceived a certain charm and involuntarily glanced at Wu Nuan.

At this moment, Wu Nuan was staring steadfastly at Ah Dao’s receding figure, her eyes filled with indelible concern.

Bai Junjun instantly felt that there was potential between the two.

After all, ancient people regarded chastity highly. Characters like Wu Nuan and Ah Dao, whether actively or passively intimate, should take responsibility for one another. Perhaps Wu Nuan simply didn’t want to morally bind Ah Dao, especially since their close contact was merely to save her.

Thus, Bai Junjun also understood Wu Nuan’s avoidance but... if Ah Dao was also interested, that would be another matter!

When Ah Dao returned, she must inquire properly. If the gentleman has affection and the lady is willing, then she would fan the flames and help bring their marriage to fruition!

With this thought, Bai Junjun smiled contentedly.

The two old men, unaware of Bai Junjun’s intentions, refocused their attention as Ah Dao disappeared from sight and asked seriously,

"Now, what were we discussing earlier?"

"?!" All the youths present were confused. What were they discussing?

Was it about seeing off Ah Dao? Or were they counting the neighbors’ gifts?

Indeed, they had already forgotten what they were discussing before Bai Junjun had returned.
