Xie Limo said, “You don’t sound happy?”
“An Yexuan has done so many things, so I naturally have to take revenge! What’s more, he is also involved in Grandfather’s matter. In the past, I thought that Grandfather had really died, so I wanted An Yexuan to taste pain. I even made up my mind to kill him then.”
Xie Limo asked, “And now?”
“Now that I know he behaved like that because of witchcraft, not to mention that Grandfather is still alive, I realized he had been through so much torture, so I feel that I can allow him to live.”
Xie Limo understood that no matter how many things Yun Bixue had done, there was still kindness in her heart. She merely didn’t wish to kill An Yexuan.
Actually, Xie Limo now felt that what An Yexuan had done didn’t yet deserve death. If An Yexuan had truly become normal now, just the guilt he felt would torment him—there was no need for them to do anything now.
Yun Bixue supported her head with both hands as she pondered something. After a while, she sighed.
“You were in a splendid mood earlier, why did your mood suddenly change? If this goes on, I’m going to think you are melancholy and oversensitive, like that ‘Younger Sister Lin'[1] had dropped from the sky.”
“I am your babe, Younger Sister Yun.”
Xie Limo gazed at the adorable Yun Bixue, his heart turning especially soft. He couldn’t resist kissing her hair, sniffing the scent that belonged only to her, his heart feeling truly grounded.
“Okay, you’re my babe, Younger Sister Yun, I’ve detected Grandfather’s exact location—he’s with Wang Qianjin.”
Yun Bixue agitatedly grabbed Xie Limo’s arm. “Really? Then when can I see Grandfather?”
She really, really missed Grandfather. Ever since Xie Limo told her about it, she would think about it every day and secretly feel sad. But every time Limo came back, she would conceal these emotions.
She didn’t want to pressure him, and she also didn’t wish to see him sad like her.
But now that she knew where Grandfather was, she didn’t want to keep waiting.
“We need to plan well. Wang Qianjin is still considered a gentleman, so he hasn’t harmed Grandfather. But exactly what he has done to him, I have yet to find out. After all, Wang Qianjin is the next successor of the Wang family. With Old Master Wang washing his hands off of matters, Wang Qianjin has sufficient power in the Wang’s headquarters. The men of the Xie family couldn’t get in for the time being.”
“Then is there no other way?”
Xie Limo reassured Yun Bixue, “Don’t be anxious, there will be a way. We can only communicate in the open. I will talk to Wang Qianjin and bring Grandfather back.”
“Okay, I believe you.”
The next day, Xie Limo stayed at home and accompanied Yun Bixue all day. It continued raining heavily outside, and there were news reports that because it had been raining heavily the past few days, the low-lying areas had flooded, submerging the cars. Even the traffic in the imperial capital was congested. The news urged the public not to go out for the time being.”
The political department had been dispatching people to rescue those trapped in the rain.
This time, Yun Bixue saw Xiajun Yanwu on the news.
The news reporter reported that Princess Yanwu had been taking part in the rescue personally. This act received praises and adoration from the citizens.
Yun Bixue’s brows furrowed at seeing this news. “This Princess Yanwu is trying to become a public figure and win over the hearts of the citizens! How dedicated to her work she is, to be fearless of danger.”
Xie Limo said, “I’ve said there’s more to her than meets the eye. If she wishes to win over the hearts of the people, this is only the first step. Although there is some danger involved, the effect is the most obvious, don’t you agree?”
Yun Bixue nodded. “You’re very right. With the most beautiful princess in the royal family caring for everyone so much, public opinion of her is bound to be high.”
