Shui Koshing immediately put the newspaper down as soon as saw Raelle coming with Shui Xian following behind her. Raelle took a seat as she greeted him, "Good morning..."

Seeing her struggling with how to call him, he again said, "I told you, you can call me anything."

Shui Xian pulled out the chair beside Raelle as he said, "Bà, don't say it like that. She might start calling you Koko."

Shui Koshing's lips twitched at his son's remark but soon, his eyes widened in shock. Did his son just crack a joke? Seriously? He was so shocked that he even forgot how to react.

He only came back to reality when he heard Raelle asking Shui Xian, "Can I?"

"Huh?"

"Can I call him Koko?" she questioned.

Shui Koshing chuckled at that especially seeing his son's stunned expression and said, "It seems it's you who put ideas into her head."

Raelle cleared her throat and said, "So, I can't call you like that it seems..."

"Actually, I don't mind," was Shui Koshing's reply.

Raelle tucked the loose strand of hair behind her ear before saying, "No. I'll call you... B..." She took a while before saying, "Bà." Shui Koshing's brows raised up in surprise. "I might take a bit of a time to get used to this but I'll try my best."

Shui Koshing was silent for a minute before he said, "I really don't mind waiting. But you don't have to push yourself if you feel uncomfortable with it."

"There is nothing to be uncomfortable about," she responded. "It's your right. I mean, as my husband's father, that's the respect you deserve." Both father and son were looking at her with nothing to say. "I just meant that I'm not used to calling anyone Bà. That's why it might take me a while."

Shui Koshing smiled at her gently, "It's alright. Take your time. I'll wait for my daughter-in-law."

"Thank you!" she said. "For understanding."

Shui Koshing continued to smile at her waved it off nonchalantly. As Raelle took a toast and jam, she suddenly missed her Yanyan. At home, she never had to spread jam on her toast. It was always done for her. Mostly, she was even fed.

Suddenly, a toast with jam evenly spread over it appeared before her eyes, she turned her head to look at her husband who said, "Stop staring already. Eat! Aren't you getting late?"

"Oh," with that she took the toast from him and took a bite.

Shui Koshing silently observed their interaction with a satisfied smile on his face. See? As soon as he had laid eyes on her, he knew she was meant for his son!

Raelle looked back at her husband who said, "He asked how we are doing. I just told him in the passing that you got a little hurt."

Raelle took a breath and looked at Shui Koshing, "By any chance, you didn't mention it to my..."

Her words were left in her throat as she heard...

"Elle!"

"Raelle!"

She took another deep breath and smiled at Shui Koshing, "It seems you did mention it to my grandfather. How amazing!"

Of course, there was nothing amazing about any of it! She stood up and walked over to her grandfather and Yanyan who had come to see her early in the morning. It seemed she was gonna be late for work today. There was no way around it.

"Opa!" she called out in as cheerful a voice as she possibly could get out. Her burgundy cowboy boots didn't make a loud sound as she ran over to Grandfather Xiang and bent down to hug him. "Oh, I missed my Opa so much!"

Grandfather Xiang was obviously happy to see his granddaughter but her words didn't bring him any happiness. He patted her back saying, "I really wish you meant that." He sighed and held her wrist, "Where did you get hurt?"

"Doctor, come inside already."

Raelle heard Mu Chenyan calling out and pressed her lips together. Was there even a point in telling them she was fine? No! There was no point! These two people would never believe her words. But they also had a solid reason for that.

Shui Xian watched this all with amusement as the doctor examined Raelle from head to toe. He came to greet Grandfather Xiang and Mu Chenyan but couldn't help to smile at his wife's helplessness. It seemed like how she made people feel helpless, there was someone to make her feel the same way. How interesting!

Both Grandfather Xiang and Mu Chenyan only relaxed when the doctor said that her injury was so small that she didn't even need a doctor. It was already almost healed.

"Are you satisfied?" asked Raelle looking at these two worrywarts.

"We were just worried," Mu Chenyan said to her.

"I know," was Raelle's reply.

"It seems I made you both worry," Shui Xian spoke up making Raelle look at him. "I should have taken better care of her."

Raelle walked past him to take her coat and purse from the maid standing at the side as she patted his shoulder and said, "Then do your job properly, Hubby."

While she waved at everyone and left, Shui Koshing ended up laughing. He looked at his son and said, "Didn't you hear her? Do a better job at taking care of her. What kind of a husband are you?"

"You're really enjoying this, aren't you?"

Shui Koshing nodded without hesitation. Then he turned to Grandfather Xiang and Mu Chenyan and said, "Since you both are already here, let's have some tea together."

"Then I'm also gonna leave now," said Shui Xian and said goodbye to everyone.
