Hearing Xie Limo's words, Yun Bixue's heart warmed up. Joy began to spread through her heart, and she giggled. "You know me best."
The two of them chatted in the pavilion and admired the night scenery. The sky was lit up with stars, and the wind blew occasionally, making the leaves rustle. They enjoyed the tranquillity of nature around them and felt serene.
When the sky turned darker, everyone began to leave one by one, and Xie Limo pulled Yun Bixue up to leave as well. Under the illumination of the street lights, some people recognized them instantly.
An old lady asked, "Oh, isn't this Young Master Xie and his wife?"
"I think so too."
When a few old ladies went forward to take a closer look at them, Yun Bixue greeted them in a friendly manner.
"Oh, my! It really is Young Master Xie and his wife! I've finally met the two of you in person. You are indeed just as sweet and loving as the rumors say."
Yun Bixue answered shyly, "Grandfathers, Grandmothers, we're taking a walk after having our dinner. We're also enjoying looking around at the same time."
"That's wonderful! I feel so blessed just by looking at you two. It's all thanks to the both of you that this plot of land became available for us to use. Otherwise, the developers would have taken it back. We always come here to train our bodies. The air here is so fres.h.!.+"
"That's right! The air here feels so great! We're riding our bike around here too. If you have any suggestions, just write a letter and send it to the political department."
"I don't think I have anything to suggest. It's already so wonderful nowadays, and there's hardly any stress. I don't even need to pay for my grandson's school fees. Also, our retirement fees are already insured. It's a great feeling to have no worries. Looking at the two of you, I'm reminded of my husband and me when we were younger…"
At that moment, the rest of the old ladies joined the conversation excitedly. Yun Bixue smiled and responded, accommodating everyone. The old ladies held her hand intimately, as though treating Yun Bixue like their real granddaughter.
Xie Limo stood by the side and was almost shoved out of the way. After that, he was pulled in by the old men for a chat. A gentle glint flashed across his exquisite eyes—he hadn't expected that his wife was so popular.
He wondered if the stubborn elders at home would also react in the same way after meeting Yun Bixue. He even looked forward to their meeting in the future.
It was getting late, so the old ladies bade Yun Bixue goodbye reluctantly. They even told Xie Limo, "Young Master, you have to treat this terrific lady well. If she were my granddaughter or granddaughter-in-law, I'd really treat her like a gem."
Xie Limo a.s.sured them. "Grandmothers, don't worry!"
"They are really a match made in heaven!"
The next day, this small episode was reported on the news. Young Master Xie and Young Madam were easy-going, friendly, and they even took the initiative to get closer to the citizens. Their photos were even posted online and went viral. In particular, Yun Bixue's face looked exceptionally warm and endearing.
That news immediately stirred up a huge discussion, resulting in Xie Limo and Yun Bixue's image to become even more perfect in the eyes of Ning An City's citizens. Everyone protected them more now, and most of them had even started to wors.h.i.+p them.
If someone were to criticize the two of them, they would be attacked by everyone else. Majority of the citizens in Ning An City felt the same. They definitely didn't allow anyone to speak ill of Young Master Xie and Young Madam.
"That smile is really so heartwarming. It feels nice just by looking at her photo."
"It's Ning An City's privilege to have a matron like her. Look, she's even holding that old lady's hand. She doesn't even think badly of the old lady!"
