Chapter 1752: Cat With No Claws
Yun Bixue followed Yun Dong’s line of sight and saw the car. If she recalled correctly, it was indeed An Yexuan’s car.
Yun Bixue couldn’t figure him out as well. What was he trying to accomplish by doing this?
Could it be that he realized that she was seeking revenge on him, which was why he was observing her?
But that was not right either. Whenever she went out for a stroll, he would be there, but whenever she returned, he would drive away.
In many ways, being constantly watched by another person was giving her the creeps, which she didn’t like. She didn’t want to interact with him at all.
“Yun Dong, ignore him, but send people to watch him secretly. Don’t allow him to do anything towards us.”
“Rest a.s.sured, Miss. I’ve already ordered people to keep their eye on him. I’ve already arranged for the men of sacrifice to watch him from the first day he parked his car there.”
“Okay.”
“Miss, you said that he became normal, but why do I feel like he became weirder?”
Yun Bixue said coldly, “He’s a clawless cat that doesn’t have enough power to hurt us for now. Even if you included the An family, they still don’t have enough to be considered a threat. Don’t bother with them.”
“Yes, Miss.”
…
Recently, even when Xie s.h.i.+liu wanted to follow An Yexuan, he didn’t allow her too.
No one knew what An Yexuan was thinking.
After Xie Limo heard about that, he fell into deep thought and instructed Xie Wu, “Xie Wu, arrange for some tasks for the An family so that An Yexuan cannot leave.”
“Yes, sir.”
Xie Wu understood. He knew that Young Master Xie’s possessiveness was immense. Even if An Yexuan was only staring at Young Madam from afar, it would make him feel uncomfortable.
Imagine another man staring at your significant other for the entire day. It would definitely feel uncomfortable!
Xie Wu committed to his duty seriously, but even when Master An summoned An Yexuan, he refused to return.
“Yexuan, just take it that I’m begging you. The An family needs everyone to work together to be able to tide through this tough time.”
“Father, didn’t you hand over the family matters to my younger brother? You can treat it as if I don’t exist!”
“You’re my son. How can I possibly treat you as if you don’t exist?”
“Father, forgive me for being so stubborn, for always disobeying you because of the things I want to do.”
Although An Yexuan had always rejected him, he realized something—An Yexuan treated him respectfully despite all the rejections, like a real son.
He felt that his child could turn good as well. That was why he tried convincing him every day, hoping that An Yexuan would eventually be convinced to return to help the family.
This day, An Yexuan looked at Yun Bixue in the distance. His gaze was warm and gentle, as if immersed in nostalgia.
After quietly mumbling a word of apology, An Yexuan drove away. Perhaps it would be a long time before he would be back.
He was smart enough to know that Xie Limo probably had a hand in the various tasks given to the An family, but he was calm about it. He blamed no one but himself for this.
The An family’s current predicament was caused by him, so no matter how the An family treated him, he couldn’t leave them to die.
…
Yun Bixue sat down at the pavilion after walking for a while.
At that moment, a luxurious car stopped outside the pavilion, and an old man clad in oriental clothes stepped out of the car.
Yun Bixue frowned as she found this stern old man familiar.
She suddenly recalled an old man she met at Ning An City. When she talked to Xie Limo about it afterwards, he mentioned that this old man was the Second Elder of the Xie family.
