While Shui Xian was busy hugging his wife in his arms, Raelle's team of bodyguards tactfully lowered their gazes. It wasn't their place to peek into their boss's affairs. But still gossipy self of Hailey couldn't help whispering, "I never knew Missy had such a human side to her. She seemed like just any other girl when she hugged her husband."
"Hailey, I told you to leave your habit of gossiping," said Anna.
Suddenly, the quietest of them all spoke out, "Missy had always been more human than all of us." Hailey looked at Aiden in surprise while the latter continued, "You've only joined the team for a year so perhaps you never noticed." It wasn't shocking for Hailey that he talked but that he actually spoke up for Raelle.
"However, she is, you can't find a better boss," added Caleb from the side. "So, it's better if you doing continue talking about her."
Hailey pursed her lips and hit her own mouth. She had to keep reminding herself that she was working with these three work maniacs who didn't even talk unless it was related to their work. She really couldn't become like them. Her lively soul that had stayed alive even when she worked in a mercenary was gonna be crushed if she continued to live with these people.
On the other hand, Ma Jin was going through an earth-shattering shock when he saw his boss carrying a woman inside the hotel. He was so shocked that he staggered. If there wasn't a wall behind him, he'd have definitely fallen. And when he saw the face of that woman he really felt like he was dizzy. Everything seemed to be spinning around him.
He decided to keep his mouth shut and he even wanted to keep his eyes closed. But Shui Xian didn't give him the chance to do so as he saw him and said, "Arrange everything for the people over there." He was pointed towards Raelle's bodyguards and without waiting for an answer, he had already taken the elevator to get to his own room as soon as possible.
Even after he got to his room, he didn't put Raelle down.
"You still aren't gonna put me down?" asked Raelle.
"No," answered Shui Xian. He took her straight to the bathroom and made her sit beside the basin. Taking a towel, he rubbed her hair saying, "Why are you so careless? What if you fell ill?"
"I'm not that weak," responded Raelle.
Shui Xian shook his head helplessly and went to turn on the hot water in the bathtub. Coming back to her side, he looked at her dirty appearance and sighed out, "Would you like to tell me how you ended up like this?"
"The car broke down on the way," answered Raelle. "And we had to walk."
Shui Xian stared at her in shock, "Why did you walk?"
"If we called for another car, it'd take hours," said Raelle. "And no one was willing to offer a lift."
Shui Xian was even more surprised to know that no one was willing to offer a lift to Raelle Xiang. He knew how scarce the traffic could get on the road that led to this town. But even with that scarce traffic, someone would have been willing to give a lift right?
Well, what he didn't know was that seeing those four bodyguards standing guard around Raelle, any car driver would take them for a thug. Even though they looked like civilized people, their inner brutality couldn't be suppressed. Those four people came from the most dangerous professions in the world. How could their aura's be inferior to their boss?
And adding on the fact that Raelle would never stop to ask for a ride, it left them with no choice but to walk. If only Raelle had shown her beautiful face, anyone would have fallen for the beauty trap and would have also offered a ride willingly.
Shui Xian could only shake his head, "Then you could have called me. I'd have come to get you myself. It would have taken barely twenty minutes."
"Then I wouldn't have been able to see that look of utter disbelief and shock on your face," said Raelle matter-of-factly. "How would it be a surprise if I called you?"
"Sweetheart, don't do it again," said Shui Xian feeling a little sad in his heart. He was really happy to see her here but he was equally distressed to see what she looked like right now. If she really fell ill because of this, he'd really not be able to forgive himself for speaking nonsense that led her to make a decision to come to him.
"You don't like seeing me here?" asked Raelle. She only went through all that because she thought he'd be really happy to see her. Also, she was actually expecting to see the shock on his face. Perhaps, she didn't even notice just how much she was expecting to see him.
Shui Xian rubbed his thumbs against her cheeks saying, "How can I not like seeing you here? I can't even tell you just how much I'm happy to have you here right now. But..." he took a pause and sighed out, "I can't see you going through such trouble again."
"It was no trouble," said Raelle honestly. "Even if it was..." She looked right into his eyes with her sparkling eyes as she continued, "You're worth the trouble."
*Lub-dub! Lub-dub! Lub-dub!*
Shui Xian could hear his heartbeat drumming in his ears. It was so loud that he was certain even she could hear it but he couldn't see from her face whether she did or not.
"Keep talking like that and I'll become arrogant," said Shui Xian.
"It's okay. I can afford an arrogant husband," replied Raelle.
Shui Xian chuckled and pinched her nose, "Don't make me feel so special."
"But aren't you special?" asked Raelle. Without waiting for his answer, she answered herself, "I think you're a special."
"Because I have a special wife?" asked Shui Xian with a smile on his face.
"How can I make you special?" responded Raelle. "You're special on your own. I just add an extra flavor to it."
Shui Xian burst out laughing loudly at her reply.
