Xie Limo’s light cherry colored lips curled into a gentle smile. He said, “Dear.”
Yun Bixue stared at Shen Zhengyao through the glass window. Her gaze grew cold and said softly, “Limo, are you busy now?” She had known that she acted too hastily right after she dialed the number. She was worried that Xie Limo was busy.
Xie Limo smile elegantly. He replied gently, “There’s not much to be busy about, what’s the matter?” His voice was filled with care and worry.
Hearing Xie Limo’s gentle reply, Yun Bixue’s cold gaze became warm and gentle. She replied gently, “Nothing much. I’m having tea near the Shen family’s place now. Shen Zhengyao has stood outside the gates for quite some times now. I suspect that he will go looking for your help.”
Xie Limo’s beautiful eyes glittering with an enchanting light. He smiled and asked, “Are you worried that I will extend a helping hand towards him?”
“That’s not it. You won’t help him if he asks you for sure. I’m worried that he will do something in desperation. After all, Shen Zhengyao had grown up under the care of Old Master Shen. The people of the Shen family are all born with an innate ruthlessness. You should take care.”
Yun Bixue’s words were filled with worry for Xie Limo.
Xie Limo’s heart warmed, and he said elegantly, “I understand. Rest assured, as long as I’m still around, the Shen family can’t do anything. I will have my men watch over them.”
“Alright, I can stop worrying then. Continue with you work, I will be home shortly.”
“Alright, ask Xie Shiyi to keep you safe. Don’t walk around alone.”
Yun Bixue smiled and answered coquettishly, “Alright.”
Hearing her soft warm reply, his heart tightened. He remembered the times when she laid in his arms at home, where she appeared so fragile and beautiful. He could not help but smile. No matter how well he was able to keep up his calm image in the face of outsiders, he couldn’t do it in front of his wife. His emotions were always swayed by her, but he was willing. For his wife, everything was worth it.
No matter how busy and tired he was, as soon as he returns home and sees her sweet smile, all the fatigue will dissipate.
After hanging up, Xie Limo returned to the meeting room elegantly. Everyone in the meeting room was waiting in absolute silence. No one dared to grumble or question his authority.
When Xie Limo first started taking charge of Ning An City, many refused to comply with his orders. They had tried to make things difficult for Xie Limo, hoping that he will step down in the face of the problems. For all of them, no matter what kind of background they had, were either demoted or had something happen to their family. Some were also found of be corrupt and subsequently jailed.
When they realized what had happened, almost all the officials within Ning An City had been replaced. After they understood what had happened, it was too late for them to regret their actions.
After witnessing Young Master Xie’s capabilities, everyone was secretly afraid of him. As a result, they dared not raise any opposing opinion to his decisions ever since.
There were still some that tried to sought opportunities admits the crisis. They tried to report Young Master Xie’s actions to people in power in Tian Jing City in order to control Young Master Xie’s actions. However, it was ineffective. Not only did their complaints achieve nothing, they were reported to be plotting something against officials. Evidence were found and they had their homes sealed.
Everyone was obedient ever since, and dare not harbor any plans. Even so, the new officials that Young Master Xie employed where those he trusted deeply, and not those people who once plotted against him.
