Chapter 1303: Couldn’t Bear to Agree
Yun Bixue held Xie Limo’s hand and continued insisting, “You have to agree. Didn’t you say that you’ll pamper me?”
As she spoke, she looked at him begrudgingly, as though he had to agree no matter what.
In fact, Yun Bixue meant that she would ignore him if he disagreed. However, she couldn’t bring herself to do it and say those words.
Xie Limo looked at the expression on Yun Bixue’s face and thought that she looked just like a little kitten. She was so adorable to him.
His heart turned so soft that he hugged her tightly once again.
Yun Bixue wanted to escape him but couldn’t bring herself to do it. In the end, she leaned into his embrace and said, “If you cared about me, you’ll agree to my request.”
Xie Limo sighed resignedly and then chuckled softly. “Xue, do you think I can bear to reject you? However, you have to know that you’d be interfering with Country A’s military matters if you set up an ordnance factory. Although the profits are huge, it is also equally dangerous. If you do a poor job, all kinds of forces would be able to take you down, and if that happens, the military would definitely have a say.”
Xie Limo paused, then continued solemnly, “Also, Xue, this is very risky. In the past, a lot of citizens who worked for other ordnance factories had either been killed or had committed suicide. I—”
Yun Bixue placed her finger on Xie Limo’s lips, shus.h.i.+ng him. She said seriously, “Limo, trust me, okay? I have already prepared myself mentally since I came up with this plan.”
Xie Limo bopped Yun Bixue’s nose and answered, “How can I still refuse if you’ve already said such things?”
Yun Bixue placed a gentle kiss beside Xie Limo’s lips and said, “Limo, you’ve agreed and cannot change your mind. I hope I can receive the official approval doc.u.ments to set up the ordnance factory soon.”
Xie Limo caressed Yun Bixue’s cheek and felt warmth radiating from it. She was no longer cold like yesterday, so he could finally feel at ease.
He lowered his head and kissed her eyelids before saying, “When have I ever made empty promises to you?”
Yun Bixue hugged Xie Limo happily and kissed him several times.
Xie Limo chuckled resignedly, “You’ve just woken up. Haven’t you kissed me enough?” As he spoke, Xie Limo’s eyes glowed darkly.
Yun Bixue raised her head and looked at the time, realizing that it was only five in the morning. She had worn him out last night, so she didn’t want to tire him out anymore.
She pushed him away hurriedly and got off the bed. “Last night’s incident must be on the news. I’ll go take a look.”
Watching Yun Bixue rush out of the bedroom, Xie Limo smiled. His eyes were completely filled with indulgence and warmth. His wife’s thoughts would never be able to escape him.
He also had important matters to relay to Xie Wu and Xie Liu too.
He didn’t have time to think things through last night, but after speaking to his wife this morning, he had some enlightenment. He had also clearly identified a few leads regarding last night’s explosion at the harbor.
While Xie Limo used a secret number to call Xie Wu and Xie Liu, Yun Bixue busied herself in the kitchen.
Since Limo had worn himself out taking care of her yesterday, she wanted to lovingly prepare breakfast for him and feed him well.
As Yun Bixue cooked, her mind uncontrollably replayed yesterday’s events. Her mind was chaotic, but she tried to calm herself down. She must adapt to such a lifestyle.
In the future, if she wanted to fight side by side with Xie Limo, she had to get used to such situations.
Yun Bixue shut her eyes and took a deep breath. Her life was only just beginning, and she would face it with a strong and determined heart.
Shortly after, Xie Wu and Xie Liu arrived at the villa and entered the study.
