Chapter 939: Look Like You Mean It
Everyone there could see that Grandfather Xiang looked instantly invigorated just because he got to see his granddaughter. Even Xiang Wai and Xiang Weimin were clear that Raelle's presence meant something else to Grandfather Xiang. It wasn't like their grandfather didn't love the two of them. But Raelle had a different position and it wasn't just because she grew up in front of his eyes.
It had more to do with how Raelle was. Even they felt like putting her at the forefront, how could others be different? Besides, she was the youngest in the family and was supposed to be the apple of everyone's eye.
"You haven't been well," said Raelle and it wasn't a question. "And no one told me anything about your health." While she said that, her eyes were on Hyson who dropped by to see her more often than others.
Hyson scratched the tip of his nose saying, "Not my fault. How can anyone speak if he says otherwise?"
Grandfather Xiang knew he couldn't hide from his perceptive granddaughter. She might not understand emotions, but she was able to understand situations very well. It wasn't surprising at all at this point.
Stroking her face lovingly, he said, "I asked them not to tell you. I wanted you to focus on your recovery. Besides, it was just a little bit of fever. It wasn't anything big so I didn't want to alarm you for no reason."
"If I'm the reason for your illness, I should at least know about it, no?"
Grandfather Xiang sighed, "How is it your responsibility? It has nothing to do with you. Don't put gold on your face. You think Opa is controlled by you?"
Raelle nodded blankly and told him, "I've been told plenty of times that you're controlling me because I was obedient but I never told anyone. In truth, it was always me controlling you instead."
Grandfather Xiang chuckled at her words and didn't refute her words. How could he? It was true that she was the one always controlling everything and everyone around her. It was very easy for her to do so without even trying. Even if it wasn't her purpose, everyone around her would subconsciously start following her rhythm.

"Now that I'm home, you can rest assured," added Raelle. "I'm fine. Stop worrying about me and focus on your own health. I'm not ready to live without you."
Grandfather Xiang felt his nose was sour and he blinked his eyes to not shed tears in front of so many people. It was really bizarre how she was capable of evoking emotions in others when she couldn't even let out her own emotions.
"Okay, you keep a close eye on me and I'll recover well."
"I'm watching you," she even added hand gestures to emphasize her point making everyone who heard their conversation chuckle softly.
Hyson dragged her over and asked, "What should we do? Gifts or dinner?"
"No gifts," replied Raelle. "And there is still time in dinner."
Hyson's excitement was almost downed by her response. It was a good thing that he had no good expectations from her. "Please remind me again and again that I don't give a bloody 'F' about your so-called opinion!"
Raelle looked at him and said, "If you don't care about my opinion, why do you bother asking every time?"
"Maybe because I'm hoping for miracles!"
"Miracles don't happen," stated Raelle. "You and I both know that."
Hyson went silent for a moment before he picked up a piece of confetti from her hair and said, "Someone just told me last night that miracles do happen. It just depends on your desperation for that miracle to happen." He smiled as he went on, "Anyway, everyone already brought gifts to celebrate your recovery. We can't do anything about it at this point. So, just accept it."
"Even if I take the gifts, it had nothing to do with you, what are you excited about?"
"I love opening gifts," he reminded. "Don't forget that."

"It seems we are late..."
Everyone turned to look at the couple who entered and Raelle was the first one to speak, "And here I thought, you'd be the first one here."
Cloe pulled up the collar of her shirt to hide some ambiguous marks while she looked at Raelle with a smile saying, "Chief, I'm so happy to see that you discharged from the hospital."
"I'm still not allowed to go to the office," was Raelle's answer which made the smile on Cloe's face disappear.
"What are you saying? Do you think of such a person? I'm genuinely happy that you're recovering well. Not because I want you to come back to work to ease up my workload."
"If you can't sound like it, at least look like you mean it," said Raelle.
Cloe touched her eyebrow and shrugged, "Whatever I do, you'll still see through me. Why should I bother acting?" She took a moment to add, "Oh, and can you please look like you're also happy to see me here?"
"I'm never happy to see you," replied Raelle.
Hyson laughed, "Ellie, she's asking you to give her face in front of her partner."
Cui Xukun was silent all this while but once everyone's eyes fell on him, he didn't know how to react. Mu Chenyan came to pat his shoulder saying, "Of course, we are happy to see you, Cloe. I'm very happy that you brought him home."
Cui Xukun felt a sharp pain on his shoulder and he almost winced in pain but had to hold back for his image. Cloe looked at his face and said to Mu Chenyan in a small voice, "Go easy on him. I can't afford him running away."
Mu Chenyan laughed at her words and said, "Go away. I'm very easygoing. You don't need to tell me anything."
"MC? Easygoing isn't the right word to describe you," was Cloe's sincere opinion. But she couldn't do anything so she only gave her boyfriend a sweet smile and mouthed him to keep fighting.
