His housekeeper shook his head and replied, “Majesty, you were not wrong.”

Xiajun Yanli sighed. “Uncle, I think I truly have been wrong.”

“I know. Majesty, you just did what any other person would have done. You are not a saint, but you’ve been kind enough.” Except for him, no one else knew how much pain the Majesty was in.

Xiajun Zihao didn’t understand what the adults were saying. He merely hugged his father tightly, as though trying to tell him that he will always be by his side.

As he hugged Hao’er, Xiajun Yanli calmed down. He instructed his subordinates, “Take Hao’er away and let him rest.”

“Yes!”

The housekeeper looked at the Majesty and could feel an air of sadness surrounding him. He seemed to have sensed this same aura from him six years ago.

“Majesty, there’s no need to think excessively. I will always serve you by your side.”

“Uncle, it has been so many years. I’m lucky to have you by my side.”

“Majesty, I’ve watched you grow up. I used to hope to see you marry your lover and have a child. Now, I just want to see you happy.”

Xiajun Yanli was startled. “Get married and have a child?” Ever since he had Hao’er, he no longer had such desires. He simply wanted Hao’er by his side as he grew up.

It was no mere coincidence that Yun Bixue came to look for him today. Perhaps, it was truly time for him to step in.

That time, he met his younger brother, Majesty Kang, and had neglected Hao’er. He found him with Xie Limo in the middle of the night, and knew why Hao’er had been missing and bawling.

At that instant, he began to doubt himself and wonder if he had been wrong.

Human beings all behaved in the same way. They clearly know that they were in the wrong but would still refuse to admit it. It was all about dignity!

When Yun Bixue arrived home, it was already in the middle of the afternoon.

She wasn’t worried, though. Xie Limo had left right after lunch and told her that he would only come home at night.

After alighting from the car, Yun Dong drove away to park the car in the garage, so Yun Bixue walked towards the gate alone.

She only saw her own pair of slippers at the door. However, after opening the door, she was startled when she noticed a graceful silhouette standing in front of the window in the living room.

In the dazzling sun rays, that silhouette looked so alluring. It was merely a rough figure, but it was enough to captivate her.

She thought that it had been a long time since she had seen his back view. Every time she met him, he had always walked towards her with a warm smile.

As Yun Bixue watched, she felt dazed. Was the wonderful and perfect Mr. Xie truly her husband?

Xie Limo held a glass of red wine in his hand. Turning around elegantly, he walked gracefully towards her and said, “You’re home.”

His words sounded lilting, and they instantly made Yun Bixue snap out of her daze. She knew she was in trouble. Why did he come home so early?

If he were to find out what she had been doing, he would definitely be livid. Moreover, she didn’t even inform him that she had headed out.

Yun Bixue’s heart began to race. Her legs trembled, and she almost couldn’t put on her usual expression.

Xie Limo walked over and finished the glass of wine. He placed it on the table beside him and squatted down, putting on the slippers for Yun Bixue.

Despite his gentle movements, the look on his face wasn’t as pleasant. He was even radiating an icy cold aura.

Yun Bixue knew that he was angry.

After putting on the slippers for Yun Bixue, Xie Limo walked into the house without saying a single word to her.

Yun Bixue put down her bag beside her. Before she could even remove her jacket, she dashed over to Xie Limo and cooed, “Limo, don’t be angry at me.”
