"Then you hope that I will explain?"
Yun Bixue glared at Xie Limo with disapproval and pushed at his body. "Hurry up and take a bath."
Xie Limo lowered his head and planted a kiss on Yun Bixue's forehead, then said, "It's my bad today. Wait a while, Ah Xue. Just wait a while."
Xie Limo then got up and went to the bathroom.
Yun Bixue sat on the sofa, s.p.a.cing out.
She thought to herself that Xie Limo worked at the Ministry for State Affairs, and as a minister, he had his own office, so there shouldn't be any smell of a woman's perfume.
That meant someone must have sprayed a very strong perfume in the corridors of the office or some other place.
She hadn't sniffed it in the past, but she sniffed it today.
If she was like other ordinary girls. She would either be secretly fuming and br.i.m.m.i.n.g with jealousy, or she would throw a tantrum at Xie Limo.
Otherwise, she would be suspicious of him, and the two of them would get into a fight because of trust issues.
Anyhow, regardless of what scenario it was, it would have an adverse effect on their relations.h.i.+p as a married couple.
The other party perhaps wouldn't have guessed that she had so much trust in Xie Limo, not doubting him even the slightest!
Actually, she had been through so much with Xie Limo, so she wouldn't bear any ill feelings towards him over this little perfume incident!
The other party had wasted her effort for anything. What would she think about this?
When she pointed out the smell of perfume on him, Xie Limo's expression remained calm, and he wasn't at all fl.u.s.tered. This goes to show that he wasn't hiding anything from her.
The only person Yun Bixue suspected was Xiajun Yanwu, because she was the only one who dared to do something like this. Other women likely wouldn't have the guts.
After all, all the events that happened to the n.o.ble families in the imperial capital more or less had something to do with her. She felt that she had a reputation for being a b*tch.
If those women wanted to live, they couldn't wait to dodge her, so why would they take the initiative to mess with her?
So, without a doubt, this person should be Xiajun Yanwu.
After Xie Limo was done showering, he saw Yun Bixue sitting on the sofa, propping her head up with her hands and deep in thought.
Xie Limo sighed inwardly. Honestly speaking, he had no idea how this perfume smell got onto him.
He really wasn't in contact with any woman. Even the a.s.sistants in his department were all men. If there was a place where the smell of perfume could get onto him, that should be the conference room.
Xie Limo's mind went through what happened today. Earlier, there were a few newly-added pots of flowers in the conference meeting, and there seemed to be something peculiar about them. So it turned out it wasn't a flowery fragrance given off by the flowers—they were sprayed with perfume instead.
Some perfume scents don't get onto clothes, whereas some would smell strong once they come in contact with clothes.
Xie Limo's gaze grew dark, and his expression turned cold. But when he walked to Yun Bixue, his gaze turned warm again.
"What are you thinking about?"
Yun Bixue suddenly looked up and saw a refreshed-looking Xie Limo. A hint of astonishment flickered across her eyes.
Her Mr. Xie looked so charming even in casual clothes.
"Nothing. I was just thinking that my Mr. Xie is going to look fair and clean after he comes out of the shower."
Xie Limo bopped her nose and said, "Naughty. You sound like you're describing a pig."
"Wait till I raise Mr. Xie to be fair and chubby, and he will be a pig then." Yun Bixue then sighed before adding, "But then again, I realized that no matter how I feed you, you never get
fat!"
Xie Limo's body naturally had the proportions of a mannequin, and no matter how he ate, it wouldn't affect his physique and weight. Yun Bixue was once very jealous of this.
Xie Limo laughed softly, his chest rumbling. Seeing her dispirited expression, he said, "Ah Xue, you're the one who should be raised to be fair and chubby."
