Seeing how Yun Bixue was covering her ears angrily, Xie Limo’s heart softened inexplicably.

He was reflecting on himself too. Was he being too long-winded? Was he nagging too much?

He had always been a man of few words, so he could not really believe the change he saw in himself.

Seeing that Xie Limo stopped talking, Yun Bixue let go of her ears and said, “Limo, I still remember when I first got to know you. I kept saying that you were like a male idol. You are drop-dead gorgeous and just like a male fairy who came from the heavens, one who cannot be touched. Back then, you did not talk much, but now, you’ve really…”

“Really what?” His wife had learned to make fun of him now.

“Really changed a lot.”

Xie Limo tickled Yun Bixue’s nose and said, “If I changed a lot, it’s all because of you. You changed a lot too.”

“How have I changed? I’m still the same as before.” As she said that, she could not help but look down at her own figure. She did seem to have put on some weight.

Seeing the confused look on her face, Xie Limo caressed her hair and said, “You always kept a distance with me in the past and treated me politely. During that time, we did not really say our true feelings with each other.”

He could still remember how she was like back then. She obviously had scars in her heart and felt desolate, yet she still continued living her life positively.

The determination in her eyes never failed to move him.

Yun Bixue blinked and refused to admit it as she replied, “Really? When? How come I don’t remember it anymore?”

Xie Limo smiled indulgently at Yun Bixue. “You’re denying it now?”

“No, I just thought that you were like a male fairy that fell from the sky and could only look at you from afar.”

Seeing how happy Yun Bixue was smiling, Xie Limo pulled her towards him and kissed her lips. “Can you still only look at me from afar now?”

“I’m just kidding. I want to watch TV now.”

“You can’t. There’s radiation.”

Yun Bixue pointed at Xie Limo and said reproachfully, “Other pregnant women watch TV too. I don’t even know if I’m really pregnant now, but I can’t even watch TV? You’re too domineering!”

Xie Limo coaxed her as he said, “Be good. Just listen to me, okay?”

Yun Bixue sat cross-legged and reached out to shake Xie Limo’s arms as she said, “Ahh, I don’t want to listen.”

“You’re becoming more and more like a child now.”

“Pass me my phone. Let me play with it for a while.”

“No, you can just read these books. I bought a whole bunch of them, so you can read whatever you like to read. But don’t tire out your eyes too. If you read for too long, I will take you out for a walk.”

Yun Bixue sighed. “I feel like I’m as precious as gold now.”

Indeed, Xie Limo was treating her like a porcelain doll right now, barring her from doing this and that. She felt like she would go crazy soon.

Yun Bixue could not wait for her mother-in-law, Ji Qiongxin, to come. She believed her mother-in-law would be able to persuade Xie Limo to tone down his overprotectiveness.

Just as the two of them were bickering, Bai Yaoyao’s overseas call came in.

Every time Yun Bixue needed to answer a call, Xie Limo would bring her phone from the living room to pass it to her.

“Yaoyao, it’s really you? I miss you so much! How are you? It’s been ages since I’ve heard your voice.”

Bai Yaoyao was elated to hear her best friend on the phone too. “Bixue, I’m doing well. I miss you a lot too. The New Year is coming soon. Will you be going back to Ning An City?”

“I discussed with Limo, and we decided to stay in the capital. We have a villa here that can accommodate quite a few people. Limo’s parents and Bilu are coming over too. Why don’t you join us for the New Year? I won’t feel assured if you’re alone outside.”

“Don’t worry. I’m doing well on my own here, and I have a lot of comrades. I’m thinking of going back to spend the New Year, but I don’t know if it will be convenient. If you won’t go back to Ning An City, what about Old Master Yun?”
