Xie Limo only returned home late at night . Seeing his mother and wife sitting on the couch and watching an entertainment program, he heaved a sigh of relief .
Yun Bixue noticed that Xie Limo had returned and approached him happily . Just like the countless times before, she naturally took care of his coat . Smelling his cold and dark fragrance, her heart felt grounded and sweet .
Xie Limo's eyes were tinged with weariness, as though he hadn't felt at ease the entire day . However, seeing his wife's gentle expression, his exhaustion seemed to have mostly dissipated .
He reached out and caressed her head as he said, "What are you doing just standing here? Haven't you had dinner yet?"
Yun Bixue nodded . "I'll fill a bowl of rice for you . Everything's all ready . We were waiting for you to come home . "
A hint of concern flashed across Xie Limo's eyes . "Didn't I say that you should eat first? Are you hungry?" He tried to return as early as possible precisely because he felt worried that she wouldn't have a proper meal . However, he still didn't manage to get away . Now, it was already past nine at night .
Yun Bixue shook her head and smiled happily . "Mom brought me a lot of delicious food . I ate a lot in the afternoon, so I didn't feel so hungry for dinner . " She didn't know why, but she missed him exceptionally today . Seeing his silhouette, her heart felt safe .
Xie Limo's exquisite eyes glittered . He gently said, "You should eat even if you're not hungry . Don't make me worry . "
"Yes, I know . "
Ji Qiongxin carried out the dishes from the kitchen . Watching how sweet the two of them were, she laughed, "That child, Bixue, is worried about you . She's been uneasy the entire day . If Mom hadn't been around, her heart would still be chasing after you . I asked her to eat tonight, but she refused and insisted on waiting for you . "
Embarrassed by her words, Yun Bixue said, "Mom, I'm really not hungry . "
"Okay, okay . You're not hungry, and you don't know that your stomach is rumbling . You still wanted to wait . This child, Limo—your wife is so nice to you . You're not allowed to bully her in the future . "
With the word 'bully' being mentioned, Yun Bixue involuntarily thought of what happened last night .
Instead, Xie Limo opened his mouth and said, "Mom, of course I'll bully her when it's the appropriate time to do so . " His voice was melodious like an ancient zither; magnetic and deep, intoxicating and alluring .
Ji Qiongxin laughed . "This child!"
Yun Bixue looked at Xie Limo . She thought that even when Xie Limo spoke such words, it couldn't obscure his aura of ethereal elegance . It was simply enthralling . A person could become obsessed just by looking at his face .
Sometimes when she looked in the mirror, she felt that her looks were worlds apart from Xie Limo's .
After the meal, Xie Limo left the house to handle some matters before Yun Bixue could speak to him . He said that he would still return later that night .
The two women continued to watch TV . If they were upset by the news, they would watch the entertainment programs .
Because of their bankruptcy and debts owed to the banks, the Shen family started to auction off all the properties under their name—including the organization and estates—within a day .
Xie Limo arrived at the base of the Xie family in Ning An City, requesting for Xie Liu to bring Shen Jingcui along .
Shen Jingcui looked at Xie Limo and felt her heart thumping tremendously . In her eyes, no one else in the world could compare to Young Master Xie .
With just a bit of contact, one would easily be captivated by him .
Xie Limo eyed Shen Jingcui plainly and passed a stack of documents to her . He said, "Sign them all . "
Shen Jingcui looked at Xie Limo's aloof expression and felt a feeling of injustice in her heart . Before she came here, she was still confident that she was beautiful . Why wouldn't he even give her one glance?
At this moment, Shen Jingcui had long forgotten what happened to Shen Zhengyao . She solely focused on her own benefits and greed .
