Chapter 989: Poisoned by Love
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Xie Limo noticed that something was amiss, a dark and cold glint flashed across his exquisite and beautiful eyes.
After thinking deeply for a while, his heart could not calm down at all. He immediately called Yun Bixue, wanting to confirm that she was alright.
Yun Bixue’s phone was not with her. It was on the coffee table in the old Yun family mansion.
Hence, when the phone rang the first time, no one answered.
Xie Limo’s expression changed completely, especially since she did not pick up the phone on the first call. The chair that he was holding onto cracked from the intensity of his grip.
A frosty aura emanated from him. Anyone who went near him would feel like they were going to freeze in an instant.
It was an extremely chilling aura.
He did not put on his coat and immediately left for the underground chamber.
When some political officials saw Young Master Xie along the corridor, they wanted to greet him with a radiant smile. However, with such an icy aura emanating from him, it was enough to freeze all their smiles at once. Just when Young Master Xie walked past them, they could feel their hearts skipping a beat.
After Young Master Xie pa.s.sed by them, they finally heaved a sigh of relief and exhaled carefully.
They had to behave well. Young Master Xie’s aura was no joke. They almost went down on their knees before him.
But that did not seem right. They had been working at the political department for so long and had never seen Young Master Xie act so cold before.
“What exactly happened?”
“I don’t know.”
“Did his mood change because he’s going to the capital now?”
“I sensed a strong murderous intent from him earlier. Yeah, it was murderous.”
“Thankfully, we’re still alive. It was really too strange.”
“The tides in Ning An City had long been reversed. Young Master Xie is not someone to be trifled with. Luckily, we have always been hard at work. I think even if Young Master Xie went to the capital, we would still have to continue working hard in the future.”
…
As Xie Limo walked in big strides, he secretly contacted the hidden guards of the Xie clan. As much as he tried to keep calm, his heart could not stop worrying.
He thought that he must have been poisoned by love. He never thought that one day, there would be one person who would become such an important presence in his life.
Once the secret guards of the Xie clan received the news, they immediately started to track via signals.
Just as Xie Limo was driving out, they replied to him via text that Young Madam was doing fine and was currently at the old Yun family mansion.
Upon hearing this piece of news, Xie Limo’s grip on the steering wheel finally relaxed. He finally stopped worrying and let out a long sigh.
He pulled his car to a stop by the riverside. He then got off the car and leaned on the railings near the river, staring at the river water with a hint of worry in his eyes.
He had one hand in his pocket, while the other was placed on the railing.
This was a highway with a turning point. At this time of the day, there were very few cars around, making the surroundings quieter.
Occasionally, some cars would zoom past too. After a while, a red BMW also pulled to a stop by the side. A beautiful girl got off the car and shook her hair before walking slowly over to a spot near where Xie Limo stood. She turned to look at the exquisitely handsome man before her eyes, and her heart shuddered.
She saw his back view from her car and knew that she had been enchanted by him. However, she never imagined that his side profile would be so perfect. She was so captivated that she had put aside her pride to get close to him.
She had just returned from overseas and pa.s.sed by Ning An City as she was driving. She did not know who this man was, but from her experience, she could tell that he was no common man. Be it his poise or his looks, she could tell that he was above all others.
Xie Limo simply emptied his thoughts as he stared somberly at the river before him. He did not care about his surroundings at all.
He was not unaware that there was someone near him. As long as the person did not disturb him, he would just ignore them and not say anything.
