Yun Bixue saw the gentle glow in Xie Limo's eyes, and a bright glint flashed across her own. "Are you taking me there to show off how loving we are?"

"Of course. I want to let the entire Ning An City know that you are my wife and the most important person to me. No one else can think of touching you."

Yun Bixue blinked and said in a teasing voice, "Is my husband worried that someone will try to steal me away?"

Xie Limo lowered his head and grabbed Yun Bixue's waist without warning. He smelled the fragrance coming from her hair and said, "I'm not worried that someone will steal you from me. I won't allow anyone to have any ideas on you, like that w.a.n.g Qianjin!" The mention of w.a.n.g Qianjin's name made Xie Limo's eyes turn frosty.

Yun Bixue naturally understood that her previous injury had frightened Xie Limo. Resting her head on his shoulder, she said, "There won't be a next time, so don't think about it anymore. I'm safe here, right?"

Xie Limo pushed a stray strand of hair away from Yun Bixue's forehead and gently caressed that area. There used to be a scar there, and it was removed only with the best medication.

Yun Bixue gently pushed Xie Limo's hand away and fixed her hair. "I'm fine, alright? My wound has healed now. You're always staring at it."

"You see this? Remember that your injuries are carved deeply in my heart. I will not allow you to be hurt again."

"This is life's tough training for me. Do you understand? I think it's pretty great—"

Yun Bixue wanted to continue, but Xie Limo covered her mouth. "Stop spouting nonsense. I'd rather you not suffer so much."

Yun Bixue held Xie Limo's hand. Raising her head, she looked into his eyes and said, "You're too worried about me. I feel great now, alright? In the future, I'll become even more powerful."

Yun Bixue watched the distant expression in Xie Limo's eyes and hurriedly changed the topic. "Oh, by the way, what do you think I should wear during the business meeting? I have to be dressed beautifully to match up to my incomparably beautiful husband."

"I've requested the designers to make a gown according to your size, but the design is up to you. Do you have something in mind? You can tell the designers what you prefer."

Yun Bixue knew that the Xie family's designers were world-famous and possessed excellent skills, that was why she didn't need to worry about the gown at all.

A thought popped up in her mind, and she asked, "Should we invite the other n.o.ble families of Ning An City then? After all, they're prominent figures too."

Xie Limo bopped Yun Bixue's nose. "Are you thinking of the Su, Meng, Qin, and the other mid-ranking families?"

Yun Bixue nodded. "Yes."

"We'll invite them, as well as those who haven't harmed us. As for those who are scheming against us, like those four families and the Fang family, we won't invite them.

Yun Bixue pursed her lips and giggled.

Xie Limo leaned his forehead against hers and asked softly, "What's so funny?"

Yun Bixue rested her head on his shoulder and replied, "Just think about it. A business meeting of this magnitude that doesn't include those prominent n.o.ble families? It will be a slap on their faces. They will become a laughing stock for sure."

A cold glint flashed across Xie Limo's eyes. "This is only the beginning, and there will be more coming up. We'll start small and slowly build up the intensity of our effort. This will let them slowly savor the process of being stripped off their n.o.ble family status in Ning An City. This will cause them the greatest pain." In fact, Xie Limo hadn't planned to be so cruel at the start, but since his wife almost died because of their constant aggravations, he definitely must seek this revenge.

Yun Bixue stood on her tiptoes and kissed Xie Limo on the lips. "My husband is so evil. You're the most cunning and wicked fox!" At that moment, she felt that w.a.n.g Qianjin was absolutely no match against her husband.
