Chapter 88

After returning to Biluoyuan Courtyard, Shu He first took a bath and changed her clothes to avoid frightening Xiao Yi'er with the bloodstains on her. In Baili Moqing's study, the man sat beneath the window, cradling a small figure in his arms. The little child was currently deep in an afternoon nap. He wrapped Xiao Yi'er more securely, ensuring the wind from the window would not chill her. He then stared blankly at the snow-covered branches outside the courtyard. He sat there so quietly that Shu He felt as if wisps of desolation were floating around him.
