Chapter 684 Hugging Pillow Raelle actually didn't think that her grandfather would suddenly call for Xiang Hulin. But when he did, she didn't stop him either. Why would she stop him? She only thought that it seemed her Grandfather's answer was the same as her. The promise to a dead person could not outweigh the feelings of the person who was still alive.
Well, whatever, none of that concerned her.
What really concerned her was that the moment Grandfather Xiang called for his son, he had been looking towards the door waiting for him. His anticipation couldn't be hidden anymore. Wasn't it strange that he had been hiding his feelings for years just because of a promise? No matter what, even if he was disappointed in his own son, he was still his only son.
And blood is always thicker than water.
"Why do you look like you're waiting for a scolding?" asked Raelle as she observed Xiang Hulin for a while.
Xiang Hulin was taken aback when he heard that while Hyson coughed to disguise his laughter. Only his best friend could ask such a question in this situation. Always expect the unexpected from Raelle Xiang. Unexpected was her middle name! And speechless was what she makes you.
"Relax! Opa didn't call you here for a scolding," added Raelle not realizing what she was doing. "Right, Opa?"
Grandfather Xiang's lips curled up in a loving smile as he nodded his head, "Indeed. Listen to my granddaughter. She is always right. I didn't call you here for a scolding."
Xiang Hulin actually felt his heart settling a little bit when he heard the confirmation from his father. He really thought he'd see the disappointment in his father's eyes once again. After all, he was once again unable to protect his daughter even when he was at the same event as her. Even he was blaming himself, he wouldn't be surprised if his father would do it too.
But he was surprised to see that there was no disappointment.
"Opa, why don't you go home now?" suggested Raelle. She didn't think this was the right place of this father and son to have a discussion of any kind. Besides, she also thought there were way too many people here right now. "Take everyone else with you."
"But..." Grandfather Xiang wanted to argue but seeing Raelle, he stopped. Sigh! He should remember, that he won't win the argument. She might make it seem like he won but the final winner had always been her!
"Just go," added Raelle. "I'm not dead yet."
"YENAY!"
"I meant I'm fine and breathing," Raelle rephrased her words immediately. She also noticed the way Shui Xian was glaring at her. Oho! That was a new sight! He had never given her that look before.
Did it mean he was angry with her?
"Just go home," Raelle was still insisting. "I'll be home soon. There is nothing even wrong with me."
"You're staying here until the doctor says otherwise," said Shui Xian.
"But the doctor said I'm alright," reminded Raelle.
"But she didn't say you can leave the hospital," said Shui Xian. "Be good. Stay right where you are." Raelle blinked at him with her blank gaze but Shui Xian avoided her eyes. So what if those eyes had no emotions? He was still gonna sucked into them. It was better to not see it at all!
"But isn't it waste of time and money if you insist on keeping me here?" questioned Raelle.
"I can afford the loss," was Shui Xian's response.
"Then who will bear the responsibility of wasting my time?" she asked.
"I will."
"How?"
"However you want."
"Okay! I'll think carefully about how to make you pay for it."
Shui Xian suddenly felt like he fell into some kind of a trap. But then again, all her words were like a trap. He had already fallen for her. What was the big deal in falling into her trap?
Raelle then turned to her grandfather again, "Opa, why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to go back home? I'm really fine."
"I'm going, you heartless brat!"
Raelle didn't even think she was being insulted. She just took that as a compliment. She pointed at Hyson, "Take your little prince with you."
"I'm staying right here," said Hyson in defiance. But once Raelle looked over at him, with that one glance, he stood up, "Opa, what are you dawdling for? Let's go!"
"Bà, you also need to leave," said Raelle.
Shui Koshing was just silently pretending to be the decoration in the room. But he still got called out. "Me too? Can't I stay, daughter-in-law?"
"No," refused Raelle. "I'd have sent my husband home for rest if I didn't need him here."
"What do you need him for?"
"He needs to hug me to sleep," answered Raelle matter-of-factly as if that was the most casual thing to say.
Shui Koshing didn't even know why he was suddenly served this PDA out of nowhere. But since it was his own son and daughter-in-law, he didn't mind. He just smiled helplessly, "Okay, then. I'll leave." He patted his son's shoulder, "Dear son, lucky you! You finally have a purpose in life."
"And what is that?"
"Being my daughter-in-law's hugging pillow!" replied Shui Koshing smugly before he left. He was still smiling to himself when he left the room and joined the people who were going back home.
Raelle was really not willing to let anyone stay there with her and look at her like a patient who needed their attention.
Especially, she didn't want to see that sadness they were trying to suppress in her presence. She knew they all were grieving the loss of her child but she didn't want to see it.
Shui Xian looked at his wife who slid over and made space for him, "Come over and lie down."
He didn't even question anything and went to her side. Taking off his shoes, he got on the bed and laid down beside her. Just like he did every night, he opened his arms to hug her. It's just that today, his arms were embracing her a little too tightly as if he was scared she'll disappear.
