"Uncle…" Baili Xia bit her lip hard.
In the moment she looked up at him, even though he remained silent, she suddenly understood his thoughts.
But, was this... perhaps too kind to her?
If he was already so kind to her, why couldn't his attitude improve?
Mu Xiaojiu paid no attention to the girl's musings, and in a moment, he climbed to where the camellia was and bowed his head.
Since his left hand was holding her and his right hand was gripping the rope, he couldn't spare a third hand to pick the flower.
He could only lower his head and, with his mouth, gently bite and snap off the camellia.
With a tilt of his head, the flower was already brought close to Baili Xia.
