When Yun Bixue was sent to the VIP ward, she was asleep.
Looking at her sweet face, Xie Limo felt relieved. He stayed vigil beside her bed.
Shortly after, Xie Wu arrived at the hospital and knocked on the door. “Young Master Xie?”
Xie Limo covered Yun Bixue with a blanket before leaving the room. He looked at the man who stood before him and said, “You’re here? Have you found out?”
“The guards have reported to me. It’s confirmed.”
Xie Wu then glanced around the surroundings and only whispered by Xie Limo’s ear upon confirming there weren’t anyone around, “Young Master Xie, based on the video footage, it’s an old man. His name is unknown! We only know people address him as Second Elder.”
Xie Limo’s gaze turned icy cold in an instant, giving off a dark vibe.
He moved his fingers on the back of his hand, murderous intent evident in his eyes.
Xie Wu, who understood Young Master Xie well, felt that the second elder’s death date was near.
However, as he was waiting for Young Master Xie’s instruction, Xie Limo turned around and glanced into the ward, his dark aura gradually vanishing. “Send someone to keep tabs on him first. Don’t alert him. If there’s any abnormal movement on his part, report to me.”
“Yes, Young Master Xie!”
Xie Limo turned around and was about to go back into the ward when something struck him. He added, “Also, keep Second Elder from returning to the headquarters for the time being!”
Xie Wu was startled. He analyzed in his head, before speaking, “But Young Master Xie, since Second Elder knows of this now, he would surely report to the headquarters. He should already have called them by phone.”
Xie Limo said solemnly, “He won’t be able to contact them. I’ve already cut off the signal between the imperial capital and the headquarters.”
Xie Wu’s heart quivered. Only Young Master Xie would be able to do something like this.
He presumed Young Master Xie must have told Master and Madam, who in turn dealt with the situation.
In order to protect Young Madam and his future little master, Young Master Xie acted ruthlessly. For Young Madam’s sake, he had started dealing with the headquarters’ people in advance.
Xie Limo instructed Xie Wu everything he could. Before the latter went to act on those orders, he said, “Inform Xie Liu to come and see me.”
“Yes, sir.”
When he got back to her bedside, Yun Bixue was still asleep. Xie Limo’s expression softened, and a loving and intoxicating look appeared in his eyes.
He knew that Yun Bixue wouldn’t be waking up anytime soon, but he simply liked watching over her by her side.
After gazing at her for some time, Xie Limo placed his hand on her stomach. Even though separated by the blanket, he could feel the baby kicking inside her tummy.
A warm and marvelous feeling surged inside him.
Xie Limo knew very well that this was the family he would protect at all cost.
Yun Bixue was smiling even in her dreams. This time, she dreamt of a little boy, and the pretty little boy was wearing autumn clothing.
Yun Bixue was carrying him as she teased the baby, “Baby, you’re so good-looking. So handsome.”
“Mommy is also the prettiest.”
Gazing at the little boy’s tender and lovely skin, Yun Bixue couldn’t resist the urge to kiss upon it.
The little boy started giggling happily, and the mother-and-son duo interacted with each other tirelessly.
They were in a bamboo house in a forest, with flowers blooming and birds chirping around. In the distance, a clear stream ran. Yun Bixue held the baby in her arms as she read a story to him.
Here, she forgot about all her troubles, and she could only see her child. She was immersed in her dream.
Suddenly, the little boy started flailing his arms and legs merrily. “Papa, Papa…”
