Chapter 1785: Cared About Xie Limo’s Reputation
Yun Bixue pulled over Xie Limo and gently kissed him on his lips. She said, “Limo, when you go to work, does everyone say you are henpecked?”
She felt that Xie Limo treated her too well and was afraid everyone would criticize him behind his back.
Xie Limo grabbed Yun Bixue’s hand and deepened his kiss before reluctantly letting go of her. “What others say is their business. What I’m doing is respecting my own wife.”
Yun Bixue’s heart stirred, knowing that tongues must be wagging behind their backs.
After some thought, Yun Bixue said, “Limo, after I give birth, let’s go shopping together. I’ll visit your office and treat you better, to help you claim back some face.”
Yun Bixue was thinking she would help Xie Limo find back his pride as a man, so that they would stop gossiping.
She didn care about her own reputation, but she cared about Xie Limo’s.
Xie Limo rapped on Yun Bixue’s forehead. “You’re overthinking. They don’t dare to spout nonsense. I was bluffing you.”
“Really?”
“Of course. Because I treat my wife well, they feel that I’m a good and responsible man, so they respect me a lot.”
Yun Bixue felt a sense of relief at hearing this.
Xie Limo lowered his head and smoothed Yun Bixue’s knitted brows. “Looking at your expression, there’s probably a lot bottled up in your heart. Whatever you wish to ask me, ask away!”
Yun Bixue’s mouth twitched. “I’m truly unable to hide anything from you.”
Xie Limo understood Yun Bixue. He covered her with a blanket properly and said, “I’ve said it in the past. Your thoughts are all over your face before me. If I don’t let you ask, you probably wouldn’t be able to sleep well tonight.”
Yun Bixue thought about it, then said, “Limo, it’s quite obvious Xiajun Yanwu is after the throne. And her competitors are Majesty Kang and Majesty Huang. With the three of them vying for that spot, regardless of who ends up taking the throne, his position might not be stable.”
Xie Limo knew what Yun Bixue was worried about. “Don’t worry, my plan doesn’t include the three of them.”
“Then who does it include?”
“Guess. If you think carefully, you will get the answer.”
Yun Bixue looked at Xie Limo’s confident-looking face and started racking her brain.
Suddenly, a bolt of light seemed to flash in her mind. She widened her eyes in shock, blinking as their eyes met.
Xie Limo nodded at her, evidently knowing what she was guessing.
Yun Bixue lifted the blanket and sat up. “You… really… chose Hao’er?”
“That’s right. He’s the best choice. Plus, this choice does Hao’er’s future good as well.”
Yun Bixue’s emotions were complex, feeling ripples in her heart. She had genuine feelings towards Hao’er, and that child truly liked her too. Hence, when she learned of Xie Limo’s intention to let Hao’er take the throne, other than shock, she also felt worry.
Yun Bixue found her voice after some time. “Limo, Hao’er… Hao’er is only five!”
“Ah Xue, you have to admit this is the best choice. It’s the best choice to Hao’er, the imperial capital, and Country A.”
Yun Bixue closed her eyes and sighed. She admitted what Xie Limo said was right.
Only when Hao’er took that position would the rest of his life be safer. Moreover, both Majesty Kang and Majesty Huang would wholeheartedly assist him, and there wouldn’t be any divisions in opinions.
Yun Bixue murmured, “But he’s only five. If he really takes over that position, he would have to endure more hardship in the future.”
