Seeing Xie Limo’s exquisite gaze and the intoxicating look on his face, Yun Bixue nodded resolutely. “Of course, I want to know. It’s been a long time already, but you’re still keeping it from me.”
Xie Limo explained, “I’m not keeping it from you. I just felt that it’s a trivial matter, so there’s no need to tell you. I don’t want it to affect your mood.”
Yun Bixue scrutinized his words and said, “If it can affect my mood, then it’s not a trivial matter, isn’t it? I must know.”
Xie Limo remained silent for a while, then answered, “Okay, I’ll tell you, but you cannot get angry.”
Yun Bixue blinked a couple of times, and a charismatic glint flashed across her bright eyes. “Okay, I won’t get angry. I trust you after all.” She was merely curious why Shen Jingcui had said those words. What had she done in the past?She had intended to look for Shen Jingcui afterwards to interrogate her personally. That way, she could also find out about Chu Fei’er’s whereabouts.
Seeing that clear glint in Yun Bixue’s eyes, Xie Limo knew that she was full of curiosity and doubt. He finally explained slowly, “Do you still remember how the Jia family had exposed the Shen family and tried to eradicate them?”
“Of course.”
“That time, Shen Zhengyao had tried to blow both of you up, and he had completely tested my limits. I had initially intended to deal with the Shen family quietly, but because of what he did, I decided to go all out with my attack and eradicate them completely. I had interrogated Shen Jingcui, with the sole intention of making her sign an agreement to leave all of the Shen family’s remaining businesses to you. Much to my dismay, she used this opportunity to…” Xie Limo couldn’t continue speaking. It was really difficult for him to recount what had happened back then in front of his wife.
Yun Bixue’s eyes narrowed dangerously. “So, she tried to seduce you with her beauty so that you’ll either let the Shen family off or make her your partner? I knew that Shen Jingcui wasn’t a nice person. I’m so frustrated.” Right after saying this, she slammed her hand on the table, but she seemingly didn’t realize how much her palm was throbbing.
Fury was welling up inside her, and she began to feel livid.
“That’s what happened. You said that you won’t get angry, but you still did.”Yun Bixue hugged Xie Limo and said grumpily, “Hubby, you’ve suffered. Shen Jingcui had been too much! I must avenge you.”
Seeing Yun Bixue’s reaction, Xie Limo raised his brows. “Do you trust me? Aren’t you gonna ask me about what happened after that?”
Yun Bixue nodded with determination. “No, I won’t. We’ve been through so much together, so I believe in you. I don’t need to know what happened next.”
Hearing those words, Xie Limo’s heart felt warm. His wife’s EQ had finally improved.
…
In a hospital somewhere.
With her heart in her throat, Su Lengxian paced up and down the corridor continuously. She was really scared now. She clasped her hands, praying that everything would go well.
As long as the doctor stayed in the ward, her heart would thump erratically. She muttered again and again, “Nothing must happen to Yangyang.”
Su Lengxian was afraid, and she didn’t dare to tell her family. However, she had no idea that the news had already spread, so most people in Ning An City had already found out about what happened today.
During this time, her phone was on silent mode, so she didn’t hear it ring. Within a short while, she heard hastened footsteps rushing from the other side of the corridor. They were Father and Mother Su, and Su Lenghan.
Su Lenghan’s face was pale, and his steps were unstable. He rushed to Su Lengxian’s side and asked anxiously, “What happened to Yangyang? How is she?”
Su Lengxian noticed the sadness in her elder brother’s eyes, and this made her heart shiver. Likewise, her voice trembled. “Elder Brother, I’m so sorry. I didn’t protect Yangyang well. She’s being treated now, so she’ll be fine. Elder Brother, don’t worry.”
