“What?” Yun Bixue was utterly stunned after hearing that piece of news. She didn’t know if she should feel happy, excited, or surprised.
Xie Limo replied solemnly, “Yes, it’s true. We’ll take the plane early in the morning tomorrow. Although there are a few more days till the wedding, we can still go earlier.”
After Yun Bixue snapped out of her shock, she felt excited. She asked again, “Limo, are we really going over tomorrow morning?”
“Yes, we are. I’ve already informed them and prepared the plane. You have to rest well tonight.”
“Awesome! I’ll go wash up and sleep.”
The next morning, Xie Limo brought Yun Bixue to their private plane. Together with their guards, they traveled to Country X.
The reason why Xie Limo wanted to bring Yun Bixue over so soon was because he didn’t want her to hear and be affected by the rumors.
Also, while they were away, Xie Wu and Xie Liu could settle the matters in the capital. After they return, everything would return to normal.
Then, Yun Bixue will be able to have a peaceful pregnancy.
While the rumors spread like wildfire in the capital, the noble families were also trying to garner support for themselves. The Han family remained quiet all along and didn’t show any abnormal signs. It was probably because Young Master Han had left the country for work.
After Han Mubai returned, many ladies were exceptionally eager and elated. They all rushed to the airport frantically to see him.
However, the ladies who went there didn’t get to see Han Mubai at all.
In order to avoid such a scene, Han Mubai had changed his flight at the very last minute. When he returned, he went straight to his office and instructed his assistant to update him on the latest news.
Of course, the assistant reported on the latest and hottest news.
Han Mubai saw the stack of newspapers on the table and took a closer look. When he noticed the person in one of the photographs, his expression changed.
This person’s side profile was so familiar. Was she Yun Bixue?
Han Mubai didn’t have much recollection of Yun Bixue. He only recalled that time when Yuan Shuangrui and Lu Suyan seemed to have quarreled with a few other ladies. Yun Bixue seemed to be one of them.
Back then, he merely thought that that woman’s voice was familiar. Since he was rushing off that day, he didn’t pay close attention to her face.
Now that he examined the photo closely, he found her more and more familiar, even though it was only half of her face. It matched what he could remember of her.
Han Mubai pondered for a while and called someone.
Shortly after, his assistant, Wuzheng, came.
“Young Master Han.”
Han Mubai asked directly, “Wuzheng, do you have a frontal shot of Yun Bixue?”
Wuzheng’s mouth gaped in shock. Could Young Master Han possibly have fallen for a married woman? She was Young Master Xie’s wife and was also pregnant.
He was suddenly at a loss for words. “Young Master Han, she…”
Han Mubai raised his head and looked at Wuzheng. His assistant had never stuttered like that before.
“Erm, Young Master Han, Yun Bixue is Xie Limo’s wife. She is pregnant too.”
Han Mubai’s face turned solemn, and a dark glint flashed across his eyes. If that was true, she definitely wasn’t the woman that he recalled.
He waved his hand and said, “Forget it. Don’t bother looking for her photo. Update me with the latest political news.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Oh, Young Master Han, the noble families are in a mess now. Everyone is considering taking sides. What are your plans?” Wuzheng knew that this was what the Han family was most concerned about.
