Huang Yizes distant expression turned soft. He sat by her side and hugged her. Its dark, so no one will see you cry. I know that youve been pretending to be happy even after suffering a lot. When you fought with Zuoqiu Zimei earlier, did you feel very helpless and upset?

Yun Bilu batted her eyelashes, and her heart quivered. How did you know?

Weve been together for so long. Do you still think I cant read your mind? Besides, your feelings are written all over your face.

It shows that Im not good at putting up a pretense.

Huang Yize caressed her cheeks and said, You dont have to put up a front with me. Just be yourself.

Yun Bilu shook her head. Actually, Im just a little sad, and I know itll soon pass. I feel much better with you here.

Yes, and Ill try my best to be by your side in the future.

Yun Bilus eyes lit up. Are you saying that youll bring me along to the Black Dragon Gang?

You still have to go to school.

Im talking about the holidays. Also, I assure you that Ill talk less and work more if I return with you. I wont get into trouble, and Ill learn together with you Yun Bilu noticed that Huang Yize seemed to have let down his guard and hurriedly made a spate of promises.

Huang Yizes aura changed. After a long while, he finally answered, Well discuss again after the new year.

His reply sounded much better than an outright rejection, so Yun Bilu was satisfied and pleased to hear that.

The fireworks went on for a few hours.

Huang Yize felt that she had cheered up significantly and finally brought her back to the villa.

After taking a shower, Yun Bilu laid on her bed. Watching the snow outside, she thought that it was exceptionally beautiful.

However, she tossed and turned, and she couldnt fall asleep. She missed her elder sister and wanted to spend the new year with her, but she couldnt bear to part with Huang Yize.

In her pajamas, Yun Bilu went to the study to look for Huang Yize.

Huang Yize, are you free?

Do I need to be free to talk to you?

I have something to say. If youre free, you can consider my proposal, but if youre not, just ignore me.

Huang Yize stood up and pulled Yun Bilu into the room. He poured her a glass of warm water and said, Even if Im busy, I still wont ignore you!

Im just afraid that youll reject my proposal.

Huang Yize wanted to playfully hit her head, but seeing the bruises on her face, he caressed her cheeks instead. What is it?

If I go home, Ill miss you so much. Do you want to come home with me for the new year?

Thats it?

Yes, but its really important to me.

Seeing the hopeful look in her eyes, Huang Yize couldnt bear to reject her. However, he did have several important matters on hand. Moreover, he had to make arrangements for the Black Dragon Gang for the new year.

He did want to spend the new year with this girl, but he couldnt bring her back to the Black Dragon Gang now, even if he wasnt afraid that it would hurt her. However, he could still consider going to her house instead.

Although he couldnt bear to reject her, he couldnt agree blindly too, so he merely said, Let me think about it.

Yun Bilu stood up immediately. Placing the cup of water by the side, she tiptoed and hugged Huang Yize. Kissing him at the corner of his lips, she said, You must think about it carefully, okay?

Huang Yizes lips quivered as he said, Okay.

In the capital of Country A

Yun Bixue and Xie Limos relationship grew even stronger, and they were stuck together all the time. Young Master Xie was becoming more and more attached to his wife.

He desperately wanted to provide Yun Bixue with all the best things in life.

Yun Bixue knew that it was useless to try to persuade Xie Limo to tone things down. Hence, she waited for her mother-in-law, Ji Qiongxin, to arrive. She believed that her mother-in-law would be able to convince Xie Limo.
