154: The Vicious Mr. Xie

The Vicious Mr. Xie

At that moment, Yun Bixue was enjoying lying on the reclining chair. Her eyes narrowed, and she drank her milk. The furry rug that cushioned the reclining chair, as well as the warm milk in her hands, Xie Limo had prepared them all for her. 2

Watching how Yun Bixue was lazing around like a kitten, Xie Limo shook his head helplessly and chuckled. Only he could see her behaving in such a silly manner.

Time trickled by slowly and roughly two hours had passed. Xie Limo tidied up his work documents and glanced at Yun Bixue who was still lounging around. He laughed gently and said, "It's been more than an hour. Do you want to meet him?"

Yun Bixue's gaze brightened, and she laughed as she met Xie Limo's eyes. She then sat upright and still, preparing to continue watching the episode from earlier on. "Limo, when he sees that I'm here too, what kind of expression do you think he'll have?"

"Aren't you anticipating it?"

Yun Bixue nodded. She was indeed looking forward to it. From her earliest memories, the Shen family—under the assistance of Old Lady Shen—had been audaciously plundering the Yun family's wealth. They had even tried to claw deeper by plotting to swallow the Yun family, even attempting to harm Grandfather and herself in the process.

She would never forget everything that had happened, and thus would never ever be soft-hearted and go easy on them.

Shen Zhengyao carried his things and waited for a long time in the reception lounge. His heart grew increasingly irked, and he glanced at his watch from time to time. His imagination started to run wild.

He recalled that the Old Master had previously reminded him about the thousand-year history of the affluent Xie family. In the past, Old Master had been fearful and had cautioned them. Yet, they were only shocked and did not internalize it. As he thought about it now, even his spine would break out into a cold sweat.

Does Xie Limo know that the Shen family was involved in the assassination attempt on his day of inauguration? Why did these series of events all point collectively towards the Shen family?

During the past six months, too many things had plagued the Shen family in one go. He'd never had the time to straighten things out. However, as he pondered over them calmly, it appeared that the events could all be tied together. Who could be the manipulator behind the scenes? How could he be so powerful?

The Shen family was also an influential and affluent family—they wouldn't be easily tackled. On the other hand, Xie Limo certainly possessed the capability…

The more he thought, the damper the soles of his feet became. Finally, he couldn't even sit still on his chair. Right when he felt the urge to leave, the doors of the reception lounge opened. Two handsomely dressed women escorted him into Xie Limo's office.

When Shen Zhengyao noticed that Yun Bixue was also in the office, he suddenly felt his heart tremble. He especially didn't know where to place the gifts that he held in his hands.

Xie Limo watched the somewhat uneasy Shen Zhengyao, and a glint of disappointment flashed across his eyes. This kind of person didn't even deserve an opportunity to meet him. In his eyes, Shen Zhengyao's disposition did not qualify him as an heir. In reality, he was inadequate.

"Mr. Shen, you should know that my office is not a place where anyone can simply enter. On normal days, all my meetings have to be scheduled and arranged, and they would have to line up. However, for the sake of my wife, I can make an exception for you. Please take a seat!" Xie Limo's words made Shen Zhengyao's expression turn completely dark.

Not a place where anyone can simply enter? You brought your wife to your office, so why aren't you commenting about that? If you intentionally wanted to make me wait, then just do it. Why phrase it in such a positive way?

In his anger, Shen Zhengyao almost spewed out a mouthful of blood. He had met shameless individuals before, but never someone who could also maintain such an air of complete respectability. Since he was begging for help this time, he had no choice but to suck it up.

Yun Bixue watched how Shen Zhengyao was silently enduring it, and secretly lifted her brows at Xie Limo. She never knew that her husband could also be so impressively vicious.
