As Xie Limo came out from the kitchen, he saw Yun Bixue in a daze, looking pale.

Hearing the sounds from the television, he turned cold and walked over to switch the tv off. “These are all irrelevant. It’s not worth it to be emotionally affected by this.”

Moreover, he already had made plans. From tomorrow onward, there would be a twist in events.

“You should go take a shower and have a good rest. When you arise tomorrow, you will realize all is well. Plus we have already collected our wedding certificate, and you are my wife, so all the rumors will be scorched.”

Listening to Xie Limo’s words, Yun Bixue’s heavy heart lifted. She gazed gratefully at Xie Limo. “Thank you!”

Thank you for always helping me.

Hearing those two words, and seeing the appreciation in Yun Bixue’s eyes, he chuckled. “Silly, there’s no need to thank me in the future.”

Just as she was about to walk toward the bathroom for a shower, a thought came to mind. She turned back and asked, “Limo, today was my grandfather’s surgery. Was it you who brought the overseas medical team on board?”

She thought that there would be no one else who would be willing to lend her Yun family a helping hand nowadays. The only possibility left would be Xie Limo.

Xie Limo held the finance newspaper in his hands as he sat and read. Hearing her voice, he lifted his head and met her eyes. He said, “I thought that in the future, your grandfather would be my grandfather too. Saving him is what I ought to do.”

As Yun Bixue showered, bits and pieces of after meeting Xie Limo floated up in her mind. She touched her chest, feeling somewhat absent-minded.

If she had met him earlier, would everything be different? Nobody had ever been so kind to her. Her grandfather had been loving but also had high expectations of her.

She took a deep breath and cheered herself on in the mirror. “Yun Bixue, press on, you will work hard and be an excellent wife.”

After her shower, she saw clean nightgowns hanging in the bathroom, and her heart warmed. He had certainly thought ahead; almost every item she needed had been prepared.

Leaving the bathroom, Yun Bixue loosened her hair as she walked from the second floor to the living room in her white nightgown. She saw Xie Limo exiting the kitchen, carrying two glasses of milk in his hands.

Hearing the footsteps, he looked up at the second floor, his eyes intoxicatingly glowing. “The milk has just been warmed. Drink a glass of milk first before drying your hair.”

At that moment, he donned a comfortable set of house clothes, looking idle yet enchanting.

Yun Bixue couldn’t help but feel moved. Xie Limo was indeed a wonderful family man. She should feel blessed for having found such a gem.

She drank the milk and dried her hair. Xie Shiyi had also arrived to shift all of Yun Bixue’s belongings indoors. She then bowed courteously at Xie Limo before leaving.

After she moved her items to the bedroom and arranged them properly, she laid down on the bed. It was large and cozy, and the style was to her liking. Although she used to sleep alone, she now felt fairly lonely.

With a pause, she stood up. Noticing that the room beside was still lit up, she walked over and stepped in. She saw Xie Limo before the table working on his computer. He was focused in all seriousness yet had a bewitching charm.

Xie Limo noticed Yun Bixue from his side view and smiled gently. “Couldn’t sleep?”

Yun Bixue looked around the room. “Is this the study room?”

“Yes, I used to work here. There are many books, If you like, you are welcome to come in anytime. There is a couch, you can rest there if you are tired. There is also a tea table at the side. You can pour yourself a drink.”

Yun Bixue was speechless. She finally understood what it felt to pale into insignificance by comparison. She used to think the Yun family was affluent and powerful, but in comparison to this villa of Xie Limo, it belonged to a much lower caliber.
