Chapter 1775: What If I insist on Holding It Against Her?

Hearing the princess’s anxious tone, Wu Yin replied, “But Majesty Huang was with Deputy Xie. Majesty Huang said that this matter arose because of the princess, and if the princess stands out to clarify matters, the rumors will die down.”

Xiajun Yanwu was surprised upon hearing this. “He really said that?”

“Yes!” Wu Yin then recounted the situation in detail to Xiajun Yanwu.

Xiajun Yanwu gently slapped the table, a little disconcerted. “Brother ruined it for me!”

She propped her head up and sighed. She really didn’t want to clarify this matter, but her brother had said it in front of Xie Limo. She clenched her fists, snapping a pencil in half.

“Didn’t Xie Limo say anything?”

Wu Yin shook his head.

“He didn’t say he’ll be coming to find me?”

Wu Yin shook his head again.

Xiajun Yanwu bit her lower lip, feeling angry. “Alright, you may take your leave!”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

Wu Yin couldn’t fathom what the Princess was thinking, but she knew that the Princess’s feelings for Deputy Xie were unchanged.

Xiajun Yanwu had thought that Xie Limo would charge at her furiously and question her. As long as he came by himself, she could tie herself to him.

Too bad this Xie Limo was an unfathomable person. She had completely no idea what he was thinking.

Why wasn’t she the one who met him back then?

Seeing him treat his wife so well, she was super envious.

Xiajun Yanwu reckoned she was superior to Yun Bixue, so why wouldn’t Xie Limo look at her?

Xiajun Yanwu didn’t understand love after all. Love is blind, and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The only thing that matters is if that person is what you want to cherish.

To Xie Limo and Yun Bixue, they only had eyes for each other. No matter how outstanding others were, they wouldn’t be able to come between them.

Meeting the right person at the right time—that was the case for Xie Limo and Yun Bixue.

…

After Wu Yin left, Xie Limo’s chilly aura got more and more intense.

Xiajun Yanli knew what Xie Limo felt. He said, “My younger sister is young and foolish. I hope you won’t hold it against her.”

Xie Limo replied coldly, “What if I insist on holding it against her?”

Xiajun Yanli paused in shock. He hadn’t expected that Xie Limo wouldn’t even show him face.

Xie Limo added blandly, “Xiajun Yanli, your face isn’t quite enough. In my eyes, no one can compare to my wife’s safety. You think I’ll let the matter rest after a word or two from the royal family after my wife suffered such a grievance?”

Xiajun Yanli was shocked to see how protective Xie Limo was of his loved ones. For a moment, he was caught in a trance.

“If Yanwu can come out and clarify this matter, will you let this matter rest?”

Xie Limo’s gaze flickered. He looked deeply at Xiajun Yanli and said, “I think Majesty Huang might have forgotten about what happened six years ago, that’s why you’re speaking up for your sister.”

Xiajun Yanli was speechless, unable to speak up another word for Xiajun Yanwu.

Xiajun Yanli wavered. What happened six years ago was still vivid in his mind. His heart sank as he said, “Forget it, since my sister did this herself, it’s not my place to interfere. I’m leaving!”

Xie Limo gazed at Xiajun Yanli’s back and said, “Xiajun Yanli, back then, when my wife went to see you, you didn’t respond to her pleas. Since then, what the royal family says is no longer important to me.”
