Chapter 733 Not That Reasonable Raelle's hand which was wrapped around Mu Chenyan's wrist to hold her back tightened. Her eyes bore into Mu Chenyan's and yet, Mu Chenyan felt like Raelle wasn't really looking at her. For the first time in forever, Mu Chenyan felt anger radiating off of Raelle which caught her off guard.
"No one can take my husband," said Raelle firmly.
Mu Chenyan's lips curled up when she heard that. Oh, that's where the anger was coming from. She cupped Raelle's face and chuckled, "Oh my! Elle has learned to be possessive. What a shocker! I think I can die in peace now."
Raelle flicked Mu Chenyan's forehead making her gape at Raelle in disbelief, "Don't even think about dying."
Mu Chenyan laughed out, "I was just saying that. How can die so soon? I still have to hold a little baby of my Elle in my arms..." Her words trailed off as she bit her tongue. She didn't think her tongue would slip like this.
"You know I don't mind you talking about my child," said Raelle. "But I do mind you saying anyone can take my husband from me."
Mu Chenyan was laughing when Shui Xian pushed open the door and came in. Mu Chenyan stopped laughing and looked at Shui Xian pointedly, "Why are you so lazy?" She took something from his hand and placed it on the table. Then she stared at Shui Xian again and said, "You better control that ex-wife of yours. If she hurt my Elle, I'll be coming for your neck!"
Shui Xian instinctively took a step back, "Yanyan, what did I do wrong?"
"Do you think I'll look for a reason whether you're wrong or not?" retorted Mu Chenyan. "I'm not that reasonable!" was her argument which left Shui Xian stumped.
"I heard you went to the temple with Yue," said Raelle.
Mu Chenyan paused in her actions and scratched her nose awkwardly, "I did."
"That is so not like you," commented Raelle. And she wasn't lying. In all these years, she had never seen Mu Chenyan believing in these things.
Mu Chenyan put her hand into her pocket and took out a red thread, she walked to Raelle and said, "Give me your wrist." Raelle didn't ask anything but extended her hand toward her. With a serious look, Mu Chenyan tied the red thread around her wrist telling her, "The abbot said this is a protection thread. It'll keep you safe from all evil."
"This thread has the power to protect me?" asked Raelle. "Do you even believe in that yourself?"
"No," answered Mu Chenyan. "But just because I don't believe in it doesn't mean I won't give it a try. I'd also like to see if this single thread has that much power."
"So, now you're testing the celestial powers?" questioned Raelle.
Mu Chenyan turned serious as she said, "If there is a god, deity, angel, or even a devil who is willing to give me the guarantee that you'll be safe, I'm even willing to sell my soul."
Standing beside them, Shui Xian once again realized just what standing Raelle had in Mu Chenyan's heart. When this woman says that Raelle isn't just her niece, she means it every single time. Because Raelle was really Mu Chenyan's life now and it couldn't be denied.
"Let's have lunch," said Raelle.
Mu Chenyan set the table for her while Shui Xian helped her. Well, there wasn't much he could help with so he went to get a wet towel to help wipe Raelle's hands.
"I thought you'd bring Yue with you," said Raelle.
"Her?" Mu Chenyan frowned thinking about her best friend, "Let her be. She wants to hide in the house these days." She showed her wrist to Raelle, "Look, she made me wear this red thread as well. But this one isn't for protection, she hopes I can let go of the negative energy in me. I mean, I'm the sweetest and nicest person around here, how can I have any negative energy."
Shui Xian almost stumbled at her comment of being the sweetest and nicest.
"Walk properly," said Mu Chenyan to Shui Xian who nodded his head obediently. "And also, I got one protection thread for you as well. So, come here."
Shui Xian didn't know how to react. Just a while ago, she was ready to come for his neck and now she wanted to tie that protection thread around his wrist. This woman was more difficult to understand than his own wife. But he still silently went up to Mu Chenyan who helped tie the thread.
"Thank you," said Shui Xian. He was still looking at the red thread that was tied around his wrist and was similar to the one Raelle wore. He couldn't help caressing it with a smile on his lips.
"What for? We still don't know if this thing works or not," was Mu Chenyan's bland response.
"Whether it does or not, doesn't matter," said Shui Xian. "It's your thought that counts more." And the thought really warmed his heart once again.
"You really know how to talk," said Mu Chenyan. "Sit down and eat properly. If you won't have energy, how are you gonna take care of my Elle?"
"Yes, Ma'am!"
Mu Chenyan rolled her eyes at him and sat down with them to eat lunch. She made three different kinds of porridge for Raelle. Just because she didn't want her Raelle to eat any boring food. She should have some variety.
All of them ate in silence and when Mu Chenyan was gathering the cutlery, that's when Raelle spoke up, "Yanyan, I have a question for you."
"Hm? What is it?"
"Why did my mother-in-law dislike Tang Hebe?" asked Raelle. "Or should I ask what was the about Tang family that my mother-in-law couldn't even stand their name?"
Mu Chenyan stopped what she was doing and looked up at Raelle. Seeing that Raelle wasn't gonna back off from this question, Mu Chenyan felt a little frustrated.
