When Mu Chenyan first learned that Raelle left her work early to take a flight to reach her husband, she was in disbelief. It took her a while to digest this news and come to terms with it but when she finally accepted this news, she was over the moon. It was like she saw her Raelle being reborn.
Mu Chenyan was familiar with Raelle's rigid and disciplined lifestyle. Even though doing something out of the ordinary just to surprise someone close to her was nothing new, what really surprised her was the fact that Raelle actually pushed her work away. She still remembered once Raelle made a trip deep in the mountains to find a special kind of plant for Grandfather Xiang who suddenly found interest in different plants.
Raelle spent two days in the mountains just looking for that plant even though she could pay anyone to do it for her. But since she wanted to surprise Grandfather Xiang, she took on this difficult task. But even then, she had only done that during weekends when the office was closed.
"I'm sorry," Raelle immediately acquiesced before her. "I should have informed you as well."
Mu Chenyan felt even worse when she heard Elle apologizing to her. And for that, she actually smacked her own head. How could she play this guilt card on Raelle?
"Forget it! I'm talking nonsense, why are you taking it so seriously?" Mu Chenyan laughed it off. "I'm just distressed. I heard that you spent a long time walking in the rain."
"I really don't need to listen to another lecture," said Raelle.
"Another?" repeated Mu Chenyan. "Did Xian also lecture you?"
"Yeah," answered Raelle.
Mu Chenyan patted her chest, "Right, he is also there. Our family's son-in-law is amazing. He'll definitely take good care of you. Since he is there, I don't have to worry at all."
"Do you think I can't take care of myself?" asked Raelle.
"Nope, you can't," answered Mu Chenyan honestly. "Give the phone to Xian."
Raelle listened to her and passed the phone to Shui Xian. While Shui Xian was talking to Mu Chenyan, Raelle looked around the room. Seeing the loose clothes on her slim frame, Raelle realized this must have been the first time she looked so unkempt. Rubbing her nose, she sat down on the bed.
The skin products that she used before sleeping were not with her. After all, she only carried her laptop here and that didn't contain much.
When Shui Xian was done with the phone call, he looked at Raelle who was looking at the ground intently. He didn't know what was so interesting on the floor. He came to sit beside her and easily snaked his arms around her waist. Then he put his shin on the hollow of her shoulder and kissed her earlobe.
"Did Yanyan give you a lecture?" asked Raelle as her attention came back to this person who was looking for hugs and kisses since she came here. She really didn't know that he was this clingy. Was something different about this place? Or he had been restraining himself back at home?
"Not really," answered Shui Xian. "She just asked me to take care of you. And I just told her, she doesn't have to worry. I know how to take care of my wife."
"Oh," responded Raelle.
"By the way, Yanyan seemed thrilled over the fact that you came to see me. Especially since you came to see me during working hours." Shui Xian was amused by it as he continued, "I wonder why she is like this."
"There was a time when Yanyan thought I was too disciplined so she tried to lead me astray," told Raelle. "It didn't work on me even though she used to tell how fun it is to play hooky."
Shui Xian chuckled, "She doesn't look like someone who would have played hooky back in school."
"Opa said she was the hateful kind of a person in her school years," said Raelle.
Shui Xian had a thoughtful look as he said, "When I was in school, I found two types of students to be hateful. One who always talking about studying and second, those who always played and yet always stayed at the top of the class."
"Yanyan falls in the second category," Raelle told him making Shui Xian's expressions distort.
"Really?" asked Shui Xian. "She was that good in school even with her wild personality?"
"She got accepted in the country's best medical school," said Raelle. "What do you think? How good was she in school?"
"Bloody hell! She was really the hateful kind of student," Shui Xian muttered to himself.
"Opa says, Yanyan is a genius but she never uses her intelligence on good things. Her brain always works on something destructive," said Raelle as she was told by her grandfather. "So a destructive person was really not meant to become a doctor."
"That's true," agreed Shui Xian. He was about to say something when his own phone rang. He stood up reluctantly and took his phone. Seeing his father calling, he accepted the call, "Bà, how come you're looking for me at this time?"
"Who is looking for you?" retorted Shui Koshing. "I was looking for my daughter-in-law. Did she reach there safely? I was calling her phone but it seems she was on another call so I couldn't get it through."
"She is with me," answered Shui Xian. "And she is fine as well."
"Oh, that's good. That's really very good," Shui Koshing heaved a sigh of relief knowing that Raelle had reached there safely. "Now that she is there, you better take care of her. What kind of a husband are you? Only after a month of marriage, you ran away. And now, even your wife had to go looking for you. Shame on you!"
Shui Xian scratched the tip of his nose as he was being bashed by his father brutally. It was as if it was his fault that he had to come here. As if he wanted to come in the first place! If he had a choice, why would he come here alone? But it's a shame that he didn't really have a choice at that time.
This bashing continued for whole ten minutes. Shui Xian didn't even dare breathe loudly. He suddenly realized that his father's strong momentum which had been dormant for years had finally awakened all over again. As if Raelle's presence provided him with fuel that raged the fire within him. But Shui Xian was actually happy with this development.
He didn't like his father's cautiousness around him. Thankfully, it was gone now.
"Bà, say something nice about me as well. I'm definitely your son. I even went for a paternity test and it's confirmed that I'm your only son. Unless you have a son hiding somewhere else."
"You brat! What the hell are you spouting?!"
Shui Xian laughed out heartily, "I feel like you're in good spirit these days."
"Of course, I am," agreed Shui Koshing. "And the credit goes to my daughter-in-law. She always eats with me. Then remind me to take my medicine. She also sits down with me to chat about various books and share knowledge with me. She even plays games with me. I recently even started joining her on her morning walks. Although I can't keep up with her pace, I am still doing well for my age."
When Shui Xian heard that, his eyes moved towards Raelle who had lied down on the bed. His heart was feeling warm when he heard his father praising his wife. He never knew such simple acts could actually help his father's health. But now facts proved that what his father needed was attention. And it was a blessing that Raelle had a habit of giving all her attention to people she cared about.
"If you continued like this, I'll become jealous," said Shui Xian with an obvious smile on his face.
"Who cares about your moods? I definitely can't care about Master Xian's mood swings anymore," said Shui Koshing. "Anyway, I am tired now. I'm going to sleep. You better do as I said."
Shui Xian put his phone away and fell down on Raelle's body.
"Are you trying to squish me?" asked Raelle.
"Not really," answered Shui Xian. Then his hands moved and hugged her before rolling over, in that way he managed to change their positions. Now, Raelle laid on his body with his arms still around her waist.
"What is this now?"
"Let's go to sleep like this," suggested Shui Xian.
"Sleep? And here I thought it was time for some action."
Shui Xian pursed his lips not knowing what to say to his blunt wife. "Baby, I'm not a beast. No matter how difficult it's for me to control myself right now, I will do it."
"Why? I didn't ask you to do so," said Raelle.
Shui Xian shook his head, "But you went through a lot today. Even if you say you're not tired, I feel tired, for you. So, I won't be a lustful beast tonight. Let's just go to sleep like this."
"Tsk!" Raelle tutted as she placed her head on his chest. "What a shame!"
Shui Xian's lips twitched not knowing what to say in this situation. He was trying to be a gentleman here!
