Yun Bixue turned and glanced at Xie Limo reproachfully. “How am I unhappy with you?”
Xie Limo pacified her as he asked, “Then what’s wrong? I woke up in the morning and was afraid that I would wake you up, so I went out to buy some stuff to celebrate your birthday with you today.”
Yun Bixue gaped and sighed. “Actually, I know that you were punishing the servants outside just now.”
Xie Limo’s heart pinched a little. “You heard all the words they said?”
His gaze turned dark. He was afraid that Yun Bixue heard things she should not have heard. It was especially since the rumors and news in the capital were rife at the moment that he did not want Yun Bixue to know at all.
Yun Bixue shook her head. “Do you think I have such big ears? Anyway, no matter what they said, they would probably make sure that I won’t be able to hear them when they said it. Even so, I can guess that they probably have some grievances about me.”
Xie Limo’s expression softened slightly as he said tenderly, “Xue, you don’t need to care about them.”
“Limo, I’m guessing they must have felt unfair and aggrieved that you, Young Master Xie, are caring for a Young Madam like me. It’s normal for them to say a few things about me too.”
Xie Limo glanced at Yun Bixue in surprise. He observed her expression carefully. It seemed really calm, and there was no hint of resentment in her voice.
He exclaimed, “You are such a good wife and can tolerate all of this.”
Yun Bixue blinked. “Does this mean I guessed it right?”
Xie Limo’s hands paused in midair for a moment before he put his things down and turned to look at her. “So you’re actually trying to get words out of me.”
“Hehe. Even if I don’t do that, I can also guess. I can tell from their expressions. There are many of them who are unhappy with me.”
“You have a really good mentality.” So she knew long ago, but he neglected it and was unaware of all these. It made him feel a sense of defeat, and it made him feel that he had let his wife suffer.
Yun Bixue shrugged her shoulders and said nonchalantly, “Actually, I feel that what they said was true. Look, ever since I’m pregnant, I’ve been quite finicky and delicate. I stopped doing this and that at home and simply sat and ate, enjoying your love and care. You rarely go out just to take care of me, which makes you so busy and tired. They are naturally airing your grievances and venting on your behalf. They are people who have been groomed by the Xie family and are loyal to you deep down. This is not something wrong.”
Xie Limo was stunned for a while. He did not expect Yun Bixue to say such words. “Xue, are you pleading for them?”
Yun Bixue looked at Xie Limo’s eyes and said, “If I plead for them, will it work?”
Xie Limo shook his head. “No, you are my wife. That is equivalent to my position. No one can be disrespectful towards you.”
“Alright, I won’t quarrel with you. But I still want to ask, can you spare them? It’s not like they harmed us or betrayed us. Humans all have emotions. It’s okay if they complain sometimes.”
“Xue, you’re so lenient. This won’t do. You must be more ruthless next time.”
“I am ruthless to my enemies, but not to my own people. They are people who have been groomed by your Xie family.”
Xie Limo pressed on Yun Bixue’s shoulders and said, “Xue, you don’t understand the headquarters. There’s both good and bad. You must adjust your mentality and learn to manage them.”
Yun Bixue understood what Xie Limo meant. If she really went back to the headquarters with him, she will surely manage it well.”
Xie Limo said very sternly, “Xue, I can’t afford to take this risk. It’s not acceptable for them to treat you like that. Now that you’re pregnant, you can’t stand these, so I will punish those that deserved it and transfer some people from the headquarters over.
