After hearing Yun Bixue’s words, Ling Nanchen turned to look at Xie Limo. When he saw that Xie Limo’s expression was the same as usual, he finally opened his mouth to say, “Okay. Brother, let me give you a toast. Where’s the wine? Is there wine in your house?”
Yun Bixue was startled. There wasn’t any wine at home.
Xie Limo said dryly, “She can’t take alcohol. If you wish to make a toast, wait for the marriage ceremony.” He didn’t want his wife to drink too much and harm her body; that was why they don’t have any alcoholic drinks at home.
Ling Nanchen’s peach flower eyes widened when he heard the word ‘marriage.’ He looked gravely at Xie Limo as though he wanted to say something.
Xie Limo kicked him under the table. “If you have anything you want to say, just say it. There are no outsiders here.”Yun Bixue felt warm inside. She understood that some things were meant to be shared only between Xie Limo and his friends, but he still allowed her to listen. Right from the start, he always treated her like his closest family member.
A husband and wife needed to trust and accompany each other, and be the best that they could be for each other. Now that she had him, she couldn’t help feeling overwhelmed with so many emotions.
Ling Nanchen said, “Yun Bixue, I’m just saying what I’m thinking, but I’m sure that Limo cares about you. If not, he wouldn’t have allowed me to tell you these things. He doesn’t tell you some things because he’s trying to protect you. No matter what happens in the future, you must trust him. Now, let me tell you something. No matter what the situation is, you can’t go wrong trusting him.”
Yun Bixue wasn’t quite used to this Ling Nanchen who turned serious all of a sudden. Nonetheless, she thought carefully about his words before nodding. “I understand what you mean. Don’t worry. Since I’m together with Limo, as husband and wife, I’ll be by his side and choose to trust in him no matter what happens.”
Ling Nanchen breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xie Limo, “Limo, you got yourself a great wife. Ah, what a torture for single people like me.”
After a moment, he turned serious again. “Limo, you do know that the elders at Xie family won’t agree that easily. You have to stand your ground when it comes to your marriage.”
Xie Limo plainly said, “Our marriage, including our private matters, is none of their business.”Ling Nanchen turned to Yun Bixue. “See that? For you, he’s willing to go against any force. Large families have their own rules similar to the ancient royal courts. When the kings got married, they still had to follow ceremonial traditions. I’m saying these things so you can understand easily. If he’s having a hard time saying it, I’ll help him and say it as a brother.” He had interacted with a lot of women, and they often let their imaginations run wild. On the other hand, men had a lot to consider, and it was not possible to explain everything.
However, looking at Yun Bixue’s character and appearance, she was really a great woman. As Xie Limo’s close friend and brother, he was happy for him.
Similarly, Yun Bixue was happy that Xie Limo had such a protective brother. She nodded her head and smiled. “I want to spend the rest of my life with Limo, so I’m going to stick tightly to him like a strong glue.”
Ling Nanchen gave her thumbs up. The two of them were really perfect for each other. Perhaps this was the only kind of woman which could match Limo and survive well in a tough environment like the Xie family. Like Aunty Ji, they would begin their lives roughly, but with her own ability, she would make everyone respect or even fear her because she had a superior aura of a Madam.
Anticipation grew within him. He sincerely believed that Yun Bixue would become a matriarch capable of surpassing Aunty Ji.
