Yun Bixue was anxious and panicking. Xie Limo’s safety was the most important to her. After suddenly hearing that he was leaving the capital for Gui County, she couldn’t calm down at all. She was sure that something must have happened.
Rather than waiting alone, Yun Bixue would prefer to go to Gui County with Xie Limo.
Xie Limo merely answered over the phone, “Xue, you have to be good and listen to me this time. The only way I won’t feel worried is if you stay safe and sound at home and wait for me to return.”
“Limo, would it be very dangerous? Why must you go to Gui County?”
“Bixue, I can’t explain to you clearly in a short period of time. I’m already on my way there and have to take the plane soon. I won’t be able to speak to you then. You have to be good.”
“Limo, I’m no longer a child. You don’t have to console me like that. I just want to be with you. I’m really worried.” She now felt that as a married couple, his safety was her utmost priority.
Xie Limo heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Why are you so stubborn? You must listen to me this time. I’ll call you when I reach Gui County. Don’t make me worry about you, okay?”
In the end, Yun Bixue could only agree.
“Go home after you’re done shopping and don’t stay out late. When I’m out of the capital, take care of yourself. I’ve sent more men to take care of you, but you have to stay safe too.”
Yun Bixue couldn’t get enough of Xie Limo’s voice. She simply wanted to listen to it more. The two of them had been together while they were in the capital. Whenever she returned home every night, he was always there.
But he had mentioned that he wouldn’t be able to return for some time. Her heart felt empty, and she couldn’t bear to part with him at all. However, she had no choice now.
She couldn’t just let her husband disregard his work and stay by her side. No, she wouldn’t make such a request. Her husband wasn’t one to neglect his responsibilities.
“Xue, I’ve arrived at the airport, and the plane is departing soon. Do you hear me?”
Yun Bixue knew that she didn’t have much time left and hurriedly said, “Hubby, I’ll miss you. You must miss me too. No matter what happens, you have to think of me. I’ll be waiting for you to return home.”
“Yes, I’ll miss you.”
“Also, you have to take care of yourself.”
“Yes, I’ll listen to my wife.”
After going through the immigration checkpoints, Xie Limo was going to board the plane and could only tell Yun Bixue, ” Xue, I have to end the call now. If the reception is bad at Gui County, don’t worry too. Be good and wait for my news.”
“Okay.”
After ending the call, Yun Bixue suddenly felt that her heart was bare. She felt lifeless and didn’t see the joy in shopping anymore.
Lin Xiaolei chose her down jackets and ran over. Looking at Yun Bixue, she asked, “Boss Yun, what happened? Haven’t you chosen your jackets?”
Yun Bixue shook her head and answered, “I’m tired after walking around for the entire afternoon.”
“Okay, then let’s go home now.”
Yun Bixue chose two jackets and paid for them before walking out with Lin Xiaolei.
Ah Qiu tailed behind Yun Bixue respectfully, protecting her, while Ah Mei drove the car.
After sending Lin Xiaolei home, Yun Bixue sat on the car and didn’t feel like going home at all. She didn’t like how empty she would feel when she arrived alone at home.
However, she recalled Xie Limo’s instructions and didn’t stay any longer on the streets. The roads were white and clean with the snow, but she was in no mood to look at it.
After arriving at the alley, Yun Bixue instructed Ah Qiu and Ah Mei to return.
The two of them were worried and wanted to keep her company, but Yun Bixue waved her hand and said, “I’m fine. If I need anything, I’ll call you.”
