Xie Limo listened to Xie Wu’s words. Although he appeared unaffected, deep down, his heart ached for his Ah Xue.
He didn’t know what Yun Bixue felt when she captured Second Elder and the rest. Even more so, he didn’t know how she managed to disregard her own health and toil so hard through the night.
He could only find out what she did last night through the hidden guards. After learning of it, his heart throbbed with pain.
He couldn’t imagine how she was able to be so strong. Right now, his heart was full of self-reproach.
If he had protected her well, she wouldn’t need to be so strong by herself.
But his Ah Xue never blamed him and would only comfort him.
Xie Limo then let out a sigh before getting to his feet. He instructed all the hidden guards in the villa to protect Yun Bixue well.
He would personally look for Second Elder and the rest.
After Yun Bixue returned to the villa, all of the Wang family’s hidden guards went back. However, they also received a secret order from Young Master Wang that they were to protect Yun Bixue well in the future—this was now their responsibility and duty.
Hence, although the Wang family’s hidden guards continued to return to their original posts and stayed concealed, they were secretly paying attention to everything related to Yun Bixue.
If anyone dared to do something bad to her, they were pitting themselves against the Wang family’s hidden guards.
Yun Bixue had no idea she was being secretly protected by the Wang family’s hidden guards.
On the way to where Second Elder was being locked up, as Xie Limo’s car traveled through the streets, nearly everyone was scolding Xiajun Yanwu.
Moreover, the imperial capital had banned all entertainment activities, to mourn over His Majesty’s death.
Although the imperial capital was in a solemn state, because of this morning’s news, people everywhere were fervently discussing Xiajun Yanwu’s matter.
When Xie Limo reached his destination, he directly entered the house and saw Second Elder, whose shoulders were currently pinned to the wall. His gaze turned cold.
Second Elder heard a sound and feebly raised his eyes. At the sight of Xie Limo, his expression changed.
Xie Limo sat down in front of him and stared without a word. He had plenty of patience.
On the other hand, Second Elder couldn’t quite take it. He said in a raspy voice, “Xie… Young Master Xie… You can’t kill me…”
Xie Limo scoffed and narrowed his eyes dangerously. “Second Elder, when you were plotting something against Yun Bixue and thinking of taking away our children, you ought to know you have crossed my limits!”
Second Elder naturally could sense Xie Limo’s murderous aura. But since the latter had personally come to see him, it was possible to convince him to let him off. Even if there was only a ray of hope, he had to give it a shot.
“Cough cough… Young Master… Xie… by taking away the child… I was obeying the rules!”
Xie Limo reached out and grabbed Second Elder’s chin and said sternly, “You don’t have to talk about rules with me. I know exactly what you were thinking. I didn’t come to hear you speak nonsense. I came to kill you!”
The murderous intent in Xie Limo’s eyes was so obvious. Although Second Elder’s heart was trembling, he appeared calm on the surface.
“Young Master… Xie… I have… cough cough… something you want here…”
“Second Elder, you think I care about that little bit of value you’re talking about?” Xie Limo then shook the iron chains.
The iron chains lodging Second Elder’s shoulders caused him so much pain that he nearly vomited out blood. He started moaning.
“At least, if I’m fine… the Elder’s Home won’t be unhappy with you, Young Master Xie…”
Xie Limo narrowed his eyes and said, “Thinking of threatening me with the Elder’s Home? You can’t possibly not know, can you? I intend to make the entire Elder’s Home disappear!”
