Seeing Yun Bixue’s odd and conflicted expression, Xie Limo chuckled softly. He lowered his head and gently nibbled on Yun Bixue’s nose. “My wife has such a wild imagination. You really impressed me. Did you watch too many period dramas?”

Yun Bixue pursed her lips. “All royal families, including yours, do the same thing, don’t they?”

“That’s something that had already happened many generations ago. It’s all in the past, so it no longer matters now. I think the drama that you’ve been planning has this plotline, right?”

“Yes, indeed.”

Seeing that Yun Bixue got sidetracked, Xie Limo sighed in relief.

This small force wasn’t a significant threat—it wouldn’t even cause a ripple in the international scene. Furthermore, the Xie family has a base in Country E as well, so if he were to send out instructions, their men of sacrifice in Country E would immediately take action and protect them. However, this would easily lead to a huge state of panic, so he decided to maintain the status quo. As long as Yun Bixue was safe and Bilu was protected by someone, he didn’t have much to worry about.

After about fifteen minutes, the special forces of Country E had surrounded the entire building and began to arrest the ruffians.

As soon as things had settled down, Xie Limo brought Yun Bixue out from the back door. Yun Bixue was worried about Bilu and wanted to see her, but Xie Limo turned her down.

“Do you think it’ll be appropriate for you to tell her that you’re in Country E now? Also, you have to give both of them some personal space.” In Xie Limo’s opinion, this would be the best opportunity for Huang Yize and Yun Bilu to bond and improve their relationship.

Xie Limo reassured her further by saying, “The Xie family in the capital of Country E is secretly protecting Bilu, so don’t worry anymore, okay?”

With his reassurance, Yun Bixue finally heaved a sigh of relief and returned to the presidential suite. After bearing with it for more than an hour, she finally called Yun Bilu. “Bilu, how are you doing? Did you have fun today?”

“Elder Sister, take it easy. What can happen to your younger sister? Yes, I had a lot of fun today. Elder Sister, you have to take good care of yourself too, alright?” During that dangerous moment, she truly missed her elder sister. She felt that after relying on each other for so long, she would feel at ease as long as her elder sister remained safe and happy.

She hadn’t been through such a situation before and definitely had felt terrified. Perhaps after experiencing that episode earlier, Yun Bilu still felt lingering fear. She looked at this world from a fresh perspective now. Maybe she had also matured a little and understood much more.

Nonetheless, she pretended that nothing happened and simply told Bixue that she was doing well in such a light-hearted manner.

Hearing her younger sister’s usual upbeat voice, Yun Bixue felt a lump in her throat. Since they were young, her younger sister had always been like this. Bilu never mentioned her hardships and grievances, and instead, would comfort her elder sister.

She couldn’t help but think if this had been the case in the past too. No matter how severe the situation was, she didn’t inform her at all, afraid that she would be worried.

At that moment, Yun Bixue suddenly felt that she didn’t fulfill her duties as an elder sister.

She sniffed discreetly and calmed herself down. “Bilu, I’m fine. Just take care of yourself, and I’ll feel at ease.”

“Elder Sister, are you still worried about me? I know how to take care of myself now, and I’m doing very well. Also, I’m making progress with Huang Yize. He’s much warmer towards me now than before.”

Yun Bixue could hear the happiness from her younger sister’s tone. She didn’t know what to say. After pausing for a moment, she slowly asked, “Bilu, do you know what Huang Yize’s family does for a living?”

Yun Bilu pondered, but she was still clueless. She answered, “Elder Sister, I don’t know what his family does for a living, but I heard they’re rather well-off. Anyway, that’s not the reason why I pursued him. Besides, in this time and age, I’m very open-minded. I don’t really care about his family background and status. As long as he treats me well, I’ll be over the moon.”
