Xie Limo lightly sighed in his heart. His wife was always so clever, always able to see through the heart of the matter.

It was the same for the incident today. She did not act recklessly either and had only done so after considering the pros and cons.

“My wife, you’ve become more clever throughout this year.”

Yun Bixue looked up and smiled. She felt like pinching the cheeks of her Mr. Xie’s exquisitely handsome face as she said, “Are you trying to say that my EQ became higher after I got together with you?”

Xie Limo raised his brows with a hint of amusement in his eyes. “Isn’t that so?”

“Alright! I admit that I became a little smarter after getting together with my black-hearted fox husband.” Yun Bixue thought for a bit and thought that Xie Limo’s words made a lot of sense after all. If she could have been so indignant and handled things in such a calm manner a year ago, would she still have been bullied so foolishly by others?

However, she would never dwell on these what-ifs. Life was pretty good now. Wasn’t all of this the best arrangement by the heavens?

Furthermore, she felt that it was precisely because of her foolishness back then that had emboldened her. If not, she would not have met such a wonderful Mr. Xie as her husband now. She was not on the losing end either.

Most importantly, she knew deep down that it was because her Mr. Xie had always been standing right behind her, which gave her the courage to be so reckless and stubborn.

If you were alone without anyone to rely on, would you still fight back against such people, especially those who had powerful and influential backers? She thought that perhaps she would not. Perhaps she would choose to hold it in to avoid making a scene.

After all, there is nothing with tolerating the situation to protect yourself.

Hearing Yu’s teasing words, Xie Limo was speechless. His wife called him a black-hearted fox. Black-hearted fox he was then!

After a while, a few waiters took turns to serve a table full of dishes to Yun Bixue. After they were done serving, they said, “Enjoy your meal!”

Yun Bixue nodded and took up her chopsticks. She told Xie Limo, “I’m really starving. Let’s try the food and see how they taste?”

Seeing the table full of dishes, Xie Limo gracefully took up his chopsticks and started eating.

After having a few peony shrimps, Yun Bixue nodded her head and said, “This is not bad.”

Xie Limo picked up a bit of crab butter for Yun Bixue and said, “Try this. It’s your favorite. Don’t eat too much, though. It’s autumn now, and seafood is naturally cooling. Your period is about to come soon too, so you should take note of it too.”

“I understand, my Mr. Xie.” Although she said it with a somewhat impatient tone, Yun Bixue’s heart was still warmed by his words.

As she ate, Yun Bixue said, “Hubby, look. They only like to bully the weak and are afraid of the strong. Who knows how many tourists and outsiders they bullied already?”

“My dear wife is such a brave lady. You’re really awesome today!”

“Limo, I have to tell you this. Even though I’m very happy that you complimented me, I feel that we might run into trouble later on!” Yun Bixue felt that since this restaurant had a backer, the backer will definitely be called over.

Xie Limo was not worried about the backer at all. However, he still entertained Yun Bixue’s doubts as he asked, “Since my wife knows, why are you still eating?”

“Yeah, I want to see where this demon hails from!” Yun Bixue thought it was rather fun to use a classic line from TV dramas.

Xie Limo replied gently, “Okay, I will risk my life to accompany my wife and see it with you. Quick, eat, so you will have energy later. That backer should be arriving soon.”

Actually, he knew from the start that the people in the restaurant would definitely have something up their sleeves if they continued eating there. They would not take this lying down without a fight.

However, since things had already come to this, he might as well meet this person.

Furthermore, a new broom sweeps clean. As a new official, there were drastic changes he had to make to the political office. Today’s incident would be one of the first.

Yun Bixue started to eat faster. She had an idea that this would definitely become a free meal, so it would be a waste not to eat them all.

Just as the two of them were almost done eating, a voice rang out from the entrance. “Who’s the one who had the guts to make a scene in our restaurant?”
