Yun Bixue frowned and shook her head as she said, "I just feel like doing something." She would not be weak again and would not run away from any of her problems. She would let everyone know how powerful she was.

She, Yun Bixue, was never easily bullied to begin with.

Xie Limo's expression turned soft. "Listen to me this time, alright? Your leg hasn't recovered yet, so I'm really worried."

Yun Bixue did not want Xie Limo to worry. She pursed her lips before saying, "Alright then. I will wait until my leg recovers first. I want my leg to recover too. How long do you think it will take before I can have the cast removed?"

"Around a month."

"That's a really long time. It should be almost New Year by then!"

"Don't worry, I will make sure your leg recovers fully before the New Year. The professional medical team in charge of your recovery isn't like any other normal doctors."

"Okay, I believe you."

However, at the mention of the New Year, Yun Bixue thought of her grandfather. Her heart clenched involuntarily. New Year this year would probably be really quiet!

She was actually really afraid of loneliness.

Yun Bixue's breathing stiffened for a while when she thought of her grandfather. She lowered her head as she tried her best not to let Xie Limo know that she was upset.

However, Xie Limo was the person who understood her the most, so he did not miss the stiffening of her breath just then.

He knew that she must be thinking of her grandfather. He had a nagging feeling that Grandfather's accident was very fishy. He would let his men check up on this matter thoroughly. He did not believe he would not be able to find any leads.

Xie Limo did not believe that Old Master Yun would be gone just like that. His intuition was usually right. There was something really fishy about this matter.

He would not let off anyone who made Yun Bixue upset.

After dinner, Xie Limo carried Yun Bixue into the bedroom. As she laid on the bed, she looked up at the ceiling in a daze.

Xie Limo went to the bathroom and prepared hot water before carrying Yun Bixue there, placing her carefully on a specially-made bath chair.

Xie Limo said in a gentle voice, "I know you love being clean and fresh all the time, that's why I got someone to make this specially for you. This will make it more convenient for me to bathe you."

Although both of them made love with each other countless times and bathed together before, it felt strange for him to give her a bath while he was fully dressed.

"Limo, I… I can do it myself…"

Seeing how Yun Bixue felt a little awkward, Xie Limo lowered his head to kiss her ear and said gently by her ear, "Xue, which part of your body have I not seen before? Don't worry, I won't do anything. I'm only helping you. If you do it yourself, you will move around recklessly and aggravate your injured leg."

In the end, Yun Bixue could not persuade Xie Limo, so she could only sit there and let him help bathe her.

He changed the power of the showerhead to that of a slow drizzle, showering her with the water using one hand as he scrubbed her body with the other.

Yun Bixue felt that wherever his hands had pa.s.sed, her body would tremble intensely. However, when she looked up at his eyes, she saw that his gaze remained ever so focused and alluring.

It was as if he was doing a very sacred act.

Once he was done bathing Yun Bixue, Xie Limo wiped her dry before carrying her back to the bed.

Yun Bixue settled down comfortably and hugged the soft blanket around her body. Only then did she relax a little. Being at home and in her own bed felt much better.

Xie Limo came out of the bathroom after he was done bathing. He got into the bed and hugged Yun Bixue as he asked, "Is there something on your mind?"

Yun Bixue was thinking of the events that had happened in the past year. She shut her eyes for a while, and when she opened her eyes again, she said very seriously and sincerely, "Limo, let's have a child!"
