Hou Zi had indeed been involved in the underworld; his actions were more or less unclean, but fortunately, when he was young, he had found Xia Yiwei. Coming from the Xia family, Xia Yiwei imposed many constraints on him. Whenever she saw Hou Zi about to mix with trouble, she immediately reminded him, thereby preventing him from causing serious disasters.
Now, Hou Zi who had been "invited for tea" for a week treated Xia Yiwei with the reverence due to an ancestor. The once awe-inspiring Hou Zi, who made both the underworld and lawful society tremble with a mere shake of his foot, now held little status at home. He might appear powerful and commanding outside, with an unknown number of billions in family wealth, but at home, he was willingly subservient as both a wife-worshipper and a doting parent.
Xia Jinyuan was somewhat relieved to hear that Xia Yiwei was not implicated.
