In the morning, what couldn’t be avoided was definitely the flushed faces from the lustful longing of the pair.
Finally, Xie Limo helped Yun Bixue to the shower and let her return to sleep after a meal.
When she woke up again, it was already noon, and Xie Limo was already preparing lunch in the kitchen.
Yun Bixue washed up before going down to help.
While Yun Bixue was washing the rice, the doorbell rang. Upon hearing the doorbell, she asked, “Is there someone outside? Who will come at this time?”
Yun Bixue was confused. On a normal basis, no one would visit them, and if it was Xie Wu, Xie Liu, or Yun Dong, they would not ring the bell and instead simply enter after scanning their faces.
Xie Limo must have had some inkling as to who it was, so he replied in a crisp voice, “I’ll see to it later.” After speaking, he continued cutting the vegetables.
Seeing Xie Limo’s expression, Yun Bixue seemed to understand something. She continued with what she was doing without rushing as well.
The bell continued ringing. When they were almost done cutting the vegetables, Xie Limo finally went to wash his hands and look at the camera.
Yun Bixue shuffled over to look at the five to six people standing outside. “They are from the government?”
“Yes.”
Yun Bixue pursed her lips. “From the looks of it, they really want you to go to work. Making them wait is a good idea. Serves them right. Who asked them to harbor thoughts of harming you?”
Xie Limo explained, “The people who tried to harm me at Gui County have already been arrested. Out of the six, three of them are from my department. Even if they had an idea, they couldn’t carry it through.”
Hearing Xie Limo’s words, Yun Bixue furrowed her brows. “But you’re still planning to meet them? Even though they did not carry it through, it’s all because they couldn’t do it in time. They’re still guilty of harming you.”
Xie Limo shook his head, “You don’t have to worry. Although I did not go to work in the past month saying that I’m resting, I have done what is needed. All their information and details are in my hands, which also means that I know all their weaknesses as well.”
Yun Bixue revealed a gentle smile. “I know. This is called dissecting a person’s personality and finding out their weaknesses, which you will use to your advantage.”
Seeing how Xie Limo was about to go to the door, Yun Bixue stopped him with a tug. “No, make them come over a few more times. For them to get to come in only after coming once, you’re making it too easy for them. Make them wait a little more.”
Xie Limo looked fondly at Yun Bixue and said, “Okay, I will listen to you.” Actually, what he wanted to do by going to the door was to turn off the doorbell rather than to open the door for them.
Yun Bixue grumbled. “Yeah, make them wait. If we don’t, they will walk all over us.”
“Aren’t you worried that they wouldn’t come anymore?”
“It’s better if they don’t come. It’s not like they treat us as officials. This way, you can accompany me at home too.”
Xie Limo poked her on the nose. “Naughty girl.”
“Okay. Now, don’t look at them. It’s time for lunch.”
“Yes.”
The few officials still had the gifts in their hands. After waiting for two hours with no one in sight, they could only pass the gifts to the guards and express their intentions.
The guard said expressionlessly, “Young Master Xie does not accept gifts from a foreign origin.” With that statement, they were rejected.
The expressions on the six people darkened, but they couldn’t act on it and could only leave resentfully with the gifts in their hands.
They vented their grievances as they left. “Who does he think he is? We even came to his house personally. Why is he sitting on his high horse?”
“He might not be at home.”
“Even if he wasn’t at home, his guard should not treat us in this manner. How annoying.”
“Xie Limo is no longer the man who had just entered the capital. Ever since the incident at Gui County, his popularity with the citizens skyrocketed.”
