Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1030: Making Decisions

Even if Shui Xian wanted to do something, he couldn't do it at the office. He already came after days and had so much work to do. Besides, Raelle wouldn't let him do it either because she didn't want to disturb his work. He was left with no choice but to let go after playing around for a while.         

    

"Baby, you're turning into a tease," grumbled Shui Xian as he buttoned up his shirt which was crumpled up. When he noticed how obvious it was that they had done something unspeakable just now, he went to get a new shirt from the room.     

"I always was one, no?" asked Raelle. "You said it yourself. Besides, I'm learning more from you. I told you. You're a good teacher."     

"I can't take this credit. It's too heavy for me. Because I'm nothing before you. Have you ever seen a teacher being played by his own student?"     

"I did," she replied.     

"Where?" he asked.     

"Here," she pointed at him and then at herself.     

Shui Xian's lips twitched and he eventually gave up. There was no way he could win yet again. No surprise there. He better just stop fighting over it.     

Raelle also fixed her appearance as she told him, "I'm leaving now."     

"Why? You can stay," said Shui Xian.      

"And do what?"     

"Watch me?" he responded uncertainly. "Don't you say I'm more pleasing to look at than anything else?"     

"That's true," replied Raelle. "But can you really take it?" she questioned seriously. "What if my gaze burned you?"     

Shui Xian had to control himself with difficulty when he heard that. He turned to look at her and said, "If you start the fire, I'll definitely ask you to extinguish it too."     

"Get to work," she pushed him towards his work desk. "This is why I don't want to say. You're gonna get nothing done."     

"I will," he replied. "I promise I'll work properly. Just stay, okay? I'll at most just glance at you every once in a while to soothe my tired eyes."     

Raelle thought about it before nodding, "Fine. I'll stay. Pay attention to work."     

"Okay," he readily agreed while she went to look at his bookshelf to look for something to read. She knew if she really sat down without something to distract her, she'll end up staring at Shui Xian for hours. And that was dangerous because it'd really start a fire that'd be hard to extinguish.     

Raelle finally found a book and sat down to read it. Whenever Shui Xian looked up, he'd find her sitting there with a book in her hands. Her slender fingers turned the pages of the book while her curled lashes were lowered as her eyes were focused on the book. In the silent office, only the rustling sound of the pages could be heard along with occasional keyboard tapping.      

When Ma Jin came in with a few department heads to report work to Shui Xian, this was a harmonious scene they all witnessed. The last rays of sunlight fell on the side of Raelle's frame and made her look perfectly sunkissed. She looked so peaceful sitting there.     

Shui Xian had to cough to snap these people out of their thoughts. Did they think he was invisible? They kept looking at his wife while he was right there! Had he been too nice lately?      

Raelle didn't pay attention to these distractions as she read the book with attention. Even when those people reported work to Shui Xian, she didn't pay attention to them. But it was more so because Shui Xian had asked them to keep their voices lowered in fear that they'd disturb his wife.     

Lately, he had been around Raelle all day and could be as clingy as he wanted to be. Who knew it'd be so difficult after getting back to work? So, when he saw Raelle, he was really happy. He couldn't describe his happiness in words. That's why he didn't want her to leave. Even if she just sat there is silence, he'd be happy because he'd know she was there and he could see her whenever he looked up.     

In fact, Raelle also knew it all. She knew how fearful he had been since the time she got into the accident. He just wanted to keep her in front of his eyes. Even after she recovered he hadn't. His situation seemed to be worse than her own. So, she was willing to indulge him. Why else would she come all the way here to bring him cream puffs?     

Once those people left, Raelle looked up and said, "Husband, I almost forgot to tell you."     

"Hm? What is it?"         

    

"I'm inviting Tang Hebe to our engagement," answered Raelle.     

Shui Xian didn't have any reaction to that as he asked, "Because you want Justin to be there?"     

"Yes," replied Raelle. "My Husband really knows me." She took a pause and asked, "You don't mind, do you?"     

"It's you who wants to invite her, what can I mind about that?" he responded. "You can do whatever you want. Isn't that clear between us?"     

"Yes, but I still have the responsibility to inform you since you're my husband and as a wife, I should share my decisions with you. No, I should discuss it with you before making decisions."     

"We can discuss when there is a need to discuss," he said. "Something like this is not worth the discussion. You can invite everyone you want to invite. I have really nothing to say about that."     

"Okay," she said. In fact, she knew he'd react this way. "It's just Opa wanted me to ask you since he thought you might not like it. After all, Tang Hebe is still your..."     

"No," Shui Xian interrupted her which he rarely did. "She and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. You're inviting her as your guest. It doesn't concern me."     

"That's what I thought," she commented. "I'll go to invite her then. I haven't seen Justin since I got discharged anyway."     

Shui Xian looked up at her and shook his head. Once again, he wondered if it was alright to be a little jealous of a little kid who didn't even reach his waist?
