Yun Bixue listened to Xie Limo’s words and laughed too. That was the best solution. “Limo, is the royal Wang family from the South at loggerheads with the Xie family?” With the Wang and Xie family contending against each other, she was worried that the Wang family might try to harm Xie Limo.
Xie Limo heard the concerned tone in Yun Bixue’s words. Pulling her hand towards himself, he kissed her palm. “Don’t worry. The royal Wang family might be of the same prestige as the Xie family, but they would not dare to easily attack us. Several hundred years ago, the Xie family had relocated their foundations outside the country, yet the Wang family remained confined within the lands of Country A. The ruler of the Wang family could not comprehend my Xie family’s capabilities. However, my Xie family could understood the Wang family like the back of their hand. If they tried to test the depths of my abilities, they are not adequate enough yet.”
Hearing that, Yun Bixue’s heart finally felt more grounded. She tightly hugged Xie Limo and said, “Limo, we must be well. I finally have a home after much adversities and I must defend it well.”
Feeling Yun Bixue’s frailty this time, Xie Limo’s heart grew tender. He tightly held onto her hands, offering her strength and comfort in his silence.
After a while, he gently patted Yun Bixue’s back, as though consoling a child. “As long as I am here, no one will harm you.” This was his promise to her right from the start, and he naturally will always fulfill it.”
Yun Bixue nodded. It was an odd feeling—as long as Xie Limo was by her side, her heart would always feel grounded and secure.
Despite the Su family consistently being at the centre of social attention, one cannot deny that Su Lenghan’s means and resolution in terms of his businesses still remained powerful. Surprisingly, the Su family’s businesses profits continued to prosper, as though unaffected.
With regards to Su Lengxian and Meng Xinyan’s conflict, he was aware of it, yet did not want to deal with it in the meantime.
In addition, Meng Xinyan had came running to Su Lenghan’s side, apologizing through her tears. She appeared traumatized and fragile, and Su Lenghan could not bear with it anymore. Moreover, he had been busy, and hence had reconciled with Meng Xinyan, just like the early days.
However, in his dreams at night, his younger sisters words would always ring in his ears. He would also uncontrollably be reminded of Yun Bixue. Every time he thought of her, his head would throb.
Seeing how her elder brother was remained nonchalant, Su Lengxian even expended all her energy to speak ill of Meng Xinyan before Su Lenghan.
Su Lenghan ultimately decided for his sister to enter the entertainment business. His younger sister’s reputation were in the gutters. He had reviewed a script, and the drama’s third female lead was a highly critical character. He decided that if Su Lengxian could use this opportunity to rise, it surely would obliterate her past.
During the organization’s meeting, he finalized on a figure—two hundred million—as investment on Su Lengxian.
After Su Lengxian found out, she was in utter disbelief and almost cried out in excitement. Her elder brother had given her an opportunity. As long as she grasped this chance, she would once again become a high and mighty celebrity.
When Zhou Yang—who had consistently remained close to Su Lengxian—found out of this news, he merely smiled plainly without a word. “If you really want to become an actress, I would not object. However, you have to think it through. If you become an actress, you cannot have any negative reports, and cannot allow others to stab you from the back.”
“Who would harm me? Meng Xinyan? She wouldn’t dare!”
“She wouldn’t, but if she became your sister-in-law, she would. After all, if she got rid of an stumbling block like you, the Su family businesses would all go to your elder brother. You would have nothing to inherit. Are you willing?”
“Then what do you think I should do?”
“Of course you should work on your stumbling block. That way, she wouldn’t be able to threaten you, isn’t it?” Zhou Yang gradually began to lead Su Lengxian’s train of thoughts towards a certain direction.
Su Lengxian was suddenly enlightened. “Zhou Yang, you are really too nice to me. I know what to do now. I won’t let Meng Xinyan off.”
