Master's Untamed Wife

After the harmonious dinner, Grandfather Xiang said to Raelle, "Elle, Xian came to our home for the first time. Shouldn't you show him around?"

"I have never even looked around this house myself," said Raelle honestly.

While Shui Xian looked at her in surprise, Grandfather Xiang mentally rolled his eyes at her.

"Then take him to your room to look around," suggested Grandfather. "I believe you know the way to your room?"

Raelle nodded her head, "I do know the way..." She looked at Shui Xian and said, "Hubby, go upstairs, the room at the far right end is mine. You can find the way."

Grandfather Xiang placed the glass of water on the table with a little force. Hearing that loud sound, Raelle looked at him as he said, "When you first went to his house, didn't he show you around?"

"He gave me the home tour because he wanted to," replied Raelle. "I didn't ask for it. He offered it himself."

"Xiang Yenay!"

Raelle instantly stood up saying, "There is no one with that name around here, Opa." She held Xian's arm and pulled him up saying, "Come, Hubby, I'll show you my old room."

Shui Xian followed her upstairs and watching them leave, Shui Koshing said, "Uncle Yu, if you hadn't mentioned it, I almost forgot that Elle's original name was Yenay."

"She doesn't like that name," replied Grandfather Xiang. "So, we hardly mention it."

"It's a beautiful name though with a beautiful meaning; She who loves," said Shui Koshing. "I wonder why she doesn't like it."

"Her likes and dislikes had been a mystery to us," stated Grandfather Xiang.

"Uncle Yu, they look good together, right?"

Grandfather Xiang's eyes softened as he nodded, "They really look good together."

Shui Koshing looked pleased with that compliment as he said, "I told you, they'd make a perfect match." He took a brief pause to add, "I'm glad that you agreed to let Raelle marry into my family."

"I had no reason to refuse," replied Grandfather Xiang. "Just because Xian is divorced, it won't change what kind of a person he is at heart. His divorce doesn't make him a failure. If anything, it makes him more outstanding. Because now, he knows better."

"No wonder, Raelle's views on life are so different," said Shui Koshing. "She definitely learned it from you."

Grandfather Xiang looked at Shui Koshing's expressions and asked, "But I still don't know why you insisted on making Raelle your daughter-in-law even after all these years."

Shui Koshing had a thoughtful expression before saying, "Uncle Yu, when one gets a wound, he has to apply an ointment to heal the wound. Because, if the wound is not treated properly on time, it'll become infectious." Grandfather Xiang squinted his eyes as Shui Koshing continued, "But when an ointment is applied on a wound, it stings. It has to hurt a little before it comes to heal."

"What are you trying to say here?" questioned Grandfather Xiang.

"Raelle is like that ointment in my Xian's life," replied Shui Koshing. "Her truthful words might be painful but they can sure bring one some peace. I knew she could heal the wounds on Xian's heart. Because she is capable of doing that." He looked at Grandfather Xiang as he added, "No one's flowery speech was able to heal my son. Because he needed a bitter pill that he wasn't offered until now."

"It's because your son is capable of swallowing the bitter pill of truth that I wanted Raelle to marry him," Grandfather Xiang added.

....

Following the instructions of her grandfather, Raelle had indeed brought Shui Xian straight to her room. She didn't make any stop on the way. She only stopped at the door of her room and pushed it open saying, "Here we are!"

Shui Xian followed her inside and momentarily paused. Seeing the familiar tones of her room, he finally understood why she didn't want to change anything in his room. There wasn't much difference between their rooms. Except for the fact that behind her bed was a metal bookshelf that had a reading desk before it as well.

In fact, just by taking one glance at this room, one could tell that the owner loved to read books. And he had already come to understand her fondness for books.

"I don't know whether to say that I wasn't expecting your room to look like this or say that it's exactly as I thought it'd be," stated Shui Xian as he looked around.

"What do you mean?" asked Raelle.

"I mean to say that I was expecting there'd be a lot of books in your room and there are indeed a lot of books here. But apart from that, I was expecting to see bright shades in your room and not this combination of black, white, and grey." He smiled at her as he said, "Now I know why you said our colors match well together."

"I already told you," said Raelle.

"Yes, you did," he agreed as he hugged her from behind and settled his chin on her shoulder.

Raelle didn't push him away, instead, she said, "You can look around all you want. I don't know why Opa wanted me to show you my room. It's not you'll find a treasure here."

"I'll definitely not find the treasure here anymore," Shui Xian agreed again. He kissed her ear saying, "Because I already took the treasure to my home."

Raelle paused before she turned around while Shui Xian's hands were still around her. She placed her hands on his chest as she said, "I'm sorry but I think you know I'm a bit slow in understanding certain things."

"I know," he replied.

"So, correct me if I'm wrong but did the 'treasure' you referred to is actually me?"

Shui Xian's smile widened as he kissed her forehead and said, "Yes. The said treasure is actually my wife."

Raelle was left blinking at him blankly, not knowing what to say to him at all. Grandfather Xiang and Mu Chenyan called her precious and special respectively. It was her first time hearing someone call her a treasure. And it actually left her mind in disarray for a moment.
