Chapter 960: Cost You A Dime
In all this bickering, only one person was unperturbed and Xia Zhao's eyes were set on that one person; Raelle. As always, whatever was happening around her didn't concern her. From the moment she picked up her chopsticks, nothing else existed except for the food in front of her. She silently enjoyed her meal and only paid attention to the world around her when she put her chopsticks down.
Finding Xia Zhao looking at her, Raelle blinked at him before she put on her practiced smile. Xia Zhao lowered his head and chuckled softly to himself.
"Baby, eat some more," said Shui Xian when he noticed how much Raelle ate. Raelle shook her head in response. "Just try to eat a little more, eh? You've been eating less and less. It's not good for health. Just take a few more bites."
"No," was Raelle's response.
Shui Xian didn't try to coax again. Since she said no, it meant no. There was no changing her mind now. "Then drink more soup? I made this for you."
Raelle shook her head, "I already drank enough."
Mu Chenyan frowned when she heard their conversation and asked, "Elle, you really didn't eat much. Is something not to your liking? Why don't you tell me? I'll make whatever you want to eat for you."
Raelle looked at Mu Chenyan and said, "Focus on eating. Don't talk while eating."
Mu Chenyan pouted but still followed her words and concentrated on eating.
"You too," this one was directed at Shui Xian whose face showed how distressed he was over the fact that his wife's appetite was even worse than before. In the hospital, he thought the atmosphere of the hospital was the reason why she didn't feel like eating but now, the same was happening at home.
With worry palpable in his eyes, Shui Xian still tried to focus on eating. It's just that since she didn't eat much, he suddenly lost his appetite as well. Nothing tasted good anymore.
"Zhao, how was the lunch? Isn't our Chenyan a very good cook?"
Xia Zhao looked at Grandfather Xiang and said, "She is good at whatever she does."
Mu Chenyan snorted at his response while Grandfather Xiang chuckled.

"Uncle Zhao, what do you do?" asked Raelle as she sat down with them. "Is painting your profession?"

"No," replied Xia Zhao. "It's just a hobby."
"You're quite well-known in the field though," said Raelle. "So, what is your profession?"
"I don't like complexities in life so you can say I don't have a fixed profession," said Xia Zhao. "I just did some investments that are enough for me to live a simple life."
"Interesting, my Yanyan does the same," said Raelle.
"How is it the same?" asked Mu Chenyan. "He is clearly lazy."
"Yanyan."
"Yes, my darling Elle?"
"You have a lot to say today."
Shui Xian smiled when he heard that and saw Mu Chenyan tsk at that before she made an excuse and left from there.
"Why do I feel like I'm losing too much? It is because he is around? Why is it that I have to lose whenever he is involved? It's unacceptable!"
Seeing her muttering to herself, Yue Yue had an amused look on her face. Actually, Shui Xian wasn't the only person who noticed the peculiarity of the relationship between Mu Chenyan and Xia Zhao even Yue Yue noticed it. Even if she wasn't the smartest around here, she was someone who loved the same person for years without saying a word. She understood the unsaid feelings better than anyone.
How could she not see that there was a thin paper wall between Mu Chenyan and Xia Zhao? But they both weren't willing to tear that paper wall and change whatever was between them. If the wall was still as it was years ago, the conclusion was, they both were just deceiving themselves and each other by not accepting their feelings.
Yue Yue actually wanted to laugh. It was the first time seeing Mu Chenyan running from something. How could she not find it interesting?
She tapped on Mu Chenyan's shoulder to get her attention before saying, 'He is handsome.'
Mu Chenyan frowned, "Why are you complimenting him out of nowhere? So what if he is handsome?"

Yue Yue shrugged her shoulders, 'I just said what came to my mind. He is handsome. Is he single?'
"Why?" asked Mu Chenyan. "You want to hit on him?"
'My heart is not available,' responded Yue Yue. 'But I can look for a partner for him.'
Mu Chenyan touched her forehead and asked seriously, "Are you sick? Did you get infected by little Fai or something? What's with the interest in setting people up? What does it have to do with you? Even if he is single, it's his business! Let him stay single!"
'As a friend, you should care.'
"Who is his friend? Me? Huh! He is my enemy! My biggest enemy!"
Yue Yue felt like smacking her head right now. How could Mu Chenyan be so worked up because of an enemy? As if that could deter her or influence her emotions. What a joke!
'Haven't you heard? Keep your friends close and enemies closer!'
Mu Chenyan furrowed her brows at that.
'I have an idea that can stop your obsession.'
"What?
'You'll get the painting you want and it won't cost you a dime!'
Mu Chenyan straightened up and asked, "What's the plan? Tell me?"
'Marry him,' Yue Yue grinned. 'Whatever is his will become yours. Free of cost! You don't even have to use so much mental power.'
Black lines appeared between her brows and Mu Chenyan snorted, "Don't joke around with me."
'I'm not joking.'
"Whatever," Mu Chenyan waved her hand carelessly. "Don't mention it again. If I wanted to marry him, I'd have done it when..." She stopped and didn't continue after this. Taking a deep breath, she added, "Anyway, it's not happening. Definitely not happening."
Yue Yue was a bit taken aback by her reaction. Why did she hear some disappointment in her voice? Was she overthinking or that disappointment was really there? It seemed the relationship between Xia Zhao and Mu Chenyan wasn't as simple as it appeared to be.
