"Grandpa, there's nothing between Uncle and me, please don't imagine things!"
Terrified he would realize something, Baili Xia didn't wait for him to speak and hurriedly explained.
As the words left her mouth, she realized her reaction might have been too intense.
Taking a moment, she then said, "Grandpa, he is Uncle, and we all respect him, even though he is indeed very young, he is still Uncle after all."
Even she couldn't understand how she could lie so smoothly.
Her relationship with Uncle was too complicated to be expressed with just one word, but in front of Grandpa, she managed to tell such a lie.
Was she getting too good at lying? She was starting to despise herself.
The elder nodded, unable to suppress a slight sigh.
"She is your Uncle, naturally, there wouldn't be anything between you. How could Grandpa possibly think of that?"
Baili Xia remained silent, her heart in turmoil, completely unsure why Grandpa was bringing up her and Uncle's matter.
