The corners of Xie Limo’s lips curled up in a faint smile. “How did you manage to hold back with that personality of yours?”
“That’s not true, Brother-in-law. I have noticed that my elder sister was wearing an odd expression long ago. Did my elder sister say that you were the trigger?”
Xie Limo pursed his lips and nodded. His expression was rather solemn as he knitted his brows. He absolutely couldn’t think of what he had done to make his wife mad.
Yun Bilu stared at the somber expression on her brother-in-law’s face and began to chortle. Finally, she hugged her stomach, and even bent down as she laughed.
Xie Limo looked at Yun Bilu and asked, “Is it that funny?”“Ha… Not really, but Brother-in-law, your expression is too grim. It’s actually not so serious. It’s just the sentiments of a delicate young lady. Hmm, it’s just like the few days that occurs every month. You understand, right?” Yun Bilu explained. She even raised her brows and looked comical.
Xie Limo frowned and contemplated for a moment. He then came to a realization and nodded. Indeed, he couldn’t comprehend women well. He sighed quietly in his heart. It seemed like he need to understand his wife better in the future.
“Aiya, Brother-in-law, there’s more. Think about yesterday night, and when things started to feel fishy. For example, think about the words that my elder sister said to you and how you answered them. Also, what were your replies that pissed her off and made her ignore you? In addition…” Yun Bilu racked her brain and spewed out everything she could think of.
As Xie Limo listened attentively by the side, he pondered carefully. Suddenly, a glint flashed across his eyes. He said to Yun Bilu, “Thank you for this. What do you want for the New Year? Brother-in-law will buy it for you.”
Yun Bilu waved her hand and answered, “Just treat my elder sister well. Seeing you pampering my elder sister is more precious than any gift for me.”
Xie Limo softly laughed, “You’re truly her wonderful younger sister. Although you refused, I will still give you a gift.”
“Oh yeah!” Yun Bilu leaped and replied, “I knew that Brother-in-law is the best.”Xie Limo shook his head and chuckled. He then went to run errands. When he returned at night, he noticed that the living room was empty. Hence, he took all his belongings up to the second floor, and finally found Yun Bixue in the study room.
“What are you reading?”
Yun Bixue pouted and answered, “Nothing much. It’s a book on economics.”
Xie Limo watched how Yun Bixue looked as she sulked. He felt that it was rather amusing and even wanted to steal a few more glimpses. However, he was afraid that his wife’s anger would take a toll on her body.
He then stepped forward and took out some supplements for women. There were all sorts and varieties of tonics, and they appeared similar to the shapes of desserts.
“My dear, I bought you these. You should eat more of these everyday.” All of these had been brought over from the Xie family’s house. Their internal team had personally manufactured them, and they were essential for women to nurse themselves back to health. Moreover, they had almost no side effects, and could even been consumed like candies.
Yun Bixue looked at the multiple bags of items—she might not even be able to finish everything in a month. “Why did you buy so much supplements?” Yun Bixue’s expression was full of uncertainty.
Xie Limo hesitated. He gently placed his delicate hands beside his mouth and coughed softly. He then quietly asked, “Women like you have to go through that experience for several days during every month, isn’t it?” After saying those words, his ears glowed red. He exuded glamor and grace, like a blooming silk flower. He was dazzling and alluring.
With his reddened ear lobes and exquisite expression, Xie Limo emanated an enticing bewitchment, and his refined aura was ethereal.
As Yun Bixue watched, she was rather bewildered. After knowing Xie Limo for so long, it was the first time that she saw him blush. She had never thought that a man could look so captivating when blushing.
She had completely forgotten what Xie Limo had just said. She gazed intensely at him, her unblinking eyes fixated on him.
