Xie Limo could detect the shock in w.a.n.g Qianjin's voice.
He said slowly, “You, too, are aware that Yun Bixue is my weakness. So what this weakness will cause me to do, I myself have no idea.”
w.a.n.g Qianjin's expression softened. He had to admit that Xie Limo was more ruthless than him. Speaking of drive, he was indeed inferior to him.
Perhaps, he should feel a.s.sured for Yun Bixue. With such a man by her side, it was truly not bad.
w.a.n.g Qianjin put himself in her shoes. If he were a woman, he would easily fall for a man like Xie Limo too.
It was understandable why Yun Bixue was so devoted to him.
But if he were in Xie Limo's position, he might not be as ruthless.
After all, he couldn't disregard the lives of his entire w.a.n.g family. He was first and foremost the young master of the w.a.n.g family.
He had been taught to be loyal to his family since young, to place his family as his priority.
Ever since he was born, he was confirmed to be the next successor. His life had been smooth-sailing, and his words were obeyed by his family. Simply put, they trusted and adored him. There was no reason for him to be irresponsible towards his family.
“Xie Limo, you should know that I've never harmed Yun Bixue. In fact, I've saved her many times. Plus, I was also the one who rescued Old Master Yun. This is a fact, so you're not going to deny it, aren't you?”
A dark glint flashed across Xie Limo's eyes. He had to admit that w.a.n.g Qianjin was Yun Bixue's benefactor, and the Yun family owed a debt of grat.i.tude to him.
This caused him some headache. Debts of grat.i.tude were the hardest to repay, and it couldn't be repaid simply with money.
“What terms have you got, speak!”
w.a.n.g Qianjin laughed. “You're indeed straightforward.”
He knew Xie Limo was a gentleman. At least, when it came to major issues, he clearly distinguished right and wrong.
He was a.s.sured about this. He coughed and explained, “I saved Old Master Yun by chance. At that time, I didn't even know if Old Master Yun would be able to speak, that's why I kept the matter a secret. By the time we managed to save Old Master Yun, a long time had pa.s.sed, so I never found the right opportunity to say it.”
“You needn't explain all this. You saved him, and that's a fact. I won't deny it, state your conditions!”
w.a.n.g Qianjin touched his nose, knowing Xie Limo found him long-winded. But when he thought of the future, he was still in a rather good mood.
“I have no other conditions, only one. That is, for Old Master Yun to stay at my place for the time being. Don't worry, I won't do anything to him. I will also protect him from harm.”
Xie Limo furrowed his brows and stopped his car by the roadside.
He pondered over this.
Although Yun Bixue had told him about what they said over the phone, to hear it personally from w.a.n.g Qianjin still felt pretty unbelievable.
The Xie family and the w.a.n.g family were at odds. Why wasn't w.a.n.g Qianjin taking the chance to state some conditions that were advantageous to his w.a.n.g family?
Honestly speaking, at this critical juncture when Yun Bixue was about to give birth, it was favorable for Yun Bixue to have Old Master Yun under w.a.n.g Qianjin's protection.
After all, the situation was tense in the imperial capital right now. If Old Master Yun returned to Yun Bixue's side, he would be dragged into danger and could risk losing his life. It was safer for him to stay hidden in the dark.
Old Master Yun was thought to be dead by everyone, and Yun Bilu was overseas. That was why others wouldn't be able to use Yun Bixue's kin to impede or threaten her.
They also wouldn't be able to use kins.h.i.+p to threaten Yun Bixue.
w.a.n.g Qianjin didn't hear a reply from Xie Limo for a while, so he said, “I know you find this hard to believe, but I have another condition, and that is for you to treat Yun Bixue well.”
