Once Yun Bixue learned of this news, she felt really heartened. “Limo, don't you think this is what you call, 'success comes when you least expect it'? Zhou Pingyu will be in charge of a.s.signing the manpower for officials now. In the upcoming civil service examinations, as long as the people I arranged for pa.s.s the written exam, they would have no problem pa.s.sing the second round of tests.”

This was good news to Yun Bixue, so she was in a good mood.

 Xie Limo's expression softened when he saw how happy she was.

 This was the day of the nationwide civil service examinations. Many big schools in the capital were put on holiday to free up the school compound for the examinees, and most teachers were a.s.signed to be proctors.

Because of this, Hao'er was also on holiday. He carried his small bag and happily came to find Yun Bixue to play.

 Yun Bixue was elated to see Hao'er. No matter how his father was like, the child was still very cute. Hence, she accompanied him to do his homework, draw some things, as well as tell him some stories.

 As for Xie Limo, he was watching the news in the study. The news was about Country X, and when he saw that everything was almost settled, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Not long after, the sound of someone knocking on the door outside was heard.

 Yun Bixue and Hao'er looked up at the same time. “Hao'er, maybe it's your father?”

 Xiajun Zihao shook his head. “My father won't be coming. He has things to do. He said he will arrange for the chauffeur to pick me up in the evening.”

 Yun Bixue stood up in confusion. “Who could it be at this time?” As she said that, she wanted to go out to take a look.

 The guard at the door had already come to report. It was Majesty Kang who came to visit.

 Majesty Kang?

Yun Bixue was stunned for a moment. She paused in her steps and turned to look at Hao'er. It seemed as if… as if Majesty Kang was Hao'er's biological father.

 Should she let them meet? Or should she carry Hao'er to somewhere else in the meantime?

 “Auntie, what's wrong?”

 Yun Bixue pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before saying, “Hao'er, erm, do you know who Majesty Kang is?”

“I know. He is my father's younger brother, so I should call him Uncle. But I have never seen him before. I have only heard Daddy talking about him.”

 Yun Bixue paused for a moment. This child was really smart. “Then do you want to meet him?”

 “I don't know.”

 Looking at Hao'er's big, clear eyes, Yun Bixue's motherly nature could not help but feel her heart ache for him.

 She sighed. She could only keep this child company. It was not in her place to do something in this delicate situation.

Just as Yun Bixue was feeling conflicted, Xie Limo came downstairs from the study and told the servant calmly, “Invite Majesty Kang in!”

 Yun Bixue gestured for Hao'er to come over to her. She hugged him as she stared at Xie Limo and said, “Should both of us excuse ourselves then?”

 “No need. I think he might want to see you as well, not just me.”

 Yun Bixue was standing behind Hao'er. She winked at Xie Limo and silently pointed at Hao'er. She meant to ask if Hao'er needed to hide.

 Xie Limo furrowed his brows. A dark glow flashed across his eyes before he said, “Don't worry, just let Hao'er continue with his homework. We can go to the study to talk.”

 Yun Bixue mouthed 'Oh' and nodded. Xie Limo was already walking towards the door when Yun Bixue regained her composure and realized a problem—Xie Limo might not know that Hao'er was Majesty Kang's biological son.

 Just as her emotions were in a turmoil, Xie Limo and Majesty Kang entered the house at the same time.

 Xiajun Zihao blinked his eyes as he looked up at Majesty Kang. There was curiosity in his eyes.

Was this his Uncle? He did not quite look like his father!

 The moment Majesty Kang entered the house, his gaze immediately landed on Xiajun Zihao as well. When he saw his looks, Xiajun Yanting's body shuddered heavily. There was a look of disbelief in his eyes.
