Master's Untamed Wife

Shui Xian found her expressionless face quite amusing for some reason. She took a moment before saying, "That sounded like something Hyson would say to flirt around." Shui Xian's brows lifted up slightly and he went on, "Does that mean you're flirting right now?"

"No, I'm being very serious," he replied with a sincere look on his face.

"Oh..." was all she could say in reply.

"By the way, did Hyson even date before?"

"Nope," replied Raelle.

"Then why is he flirting around if he isn't even gonna date someone?"

"He does it just for fun," she told him. "You can look around, whatever there is to look around." With that, she stepped out of his arms. "I have to find something."

Shui Xian watched her walking towards what he assumed was the closet and then walked around her room. There wasn't anything 'extra' in her room which made her room look very spacious even with the number of books she had. He walked over to the bookshelf and his hand traced the titles of neatly arranged books.

There were all sorts of strange books but mostly he could find the ones related to science or psychology. And he actually understood the reason behind that as well. She seemed to love science and she had a keen interest in human psychology. But aside from that, he could find some books related to business as well.

On her reading table, there was a thick notebook. He casually opened it but his eyes got stuck on the very first page. In clear and beautiful handwriting, it was written...

'Human emotions are confusing and complex. But these emotions have become a driving force in human lives. The value of truth is often forgotten before these emotions because humans tend to care more about what they feel. If the truth doesn't make them feel good, they often would let a lie rob their lives. And that's why I believe human emotions make them a fickle person.'

Shui Xian turned the page and looked at the heading that read, 'Happiness' and underneath it was a definition that stated, 'Happiness is an emotional state characterized by feelings of joy, satisfaction, contentment, and fulfillment. It is linked with more positive feelings.' Right under the definition, two pictures were attached of a person who was laughing in one photo and crying in the other. Right beside the photos was another handwritten note, that read...

'Humans are indecisive creatures as well. Supposedly, they laugh when they are happy but they shed tears of joy as well. This makes them even more confusing to understand. They can't even figure out their own feelings.'

Shui Xian sat down on the chair before the desk as he continued to flipped the pages with interest. This wasn't just a book. It was his wife's whole emotional struggle to understand people. From how she understood each and every emotion of humans to how they reacted in certain situations. Even their facial expressions analysis had been done thoroughly.

He finally understood how she noticed the small changes in his expressions. She had been studying that for all her life now. Seeing all of this made him feel sad for her.

Now, that he looked at the world of emotions from her perspective, it actually looked rather sad.

"Found it!"

Hearing her voice, he closed the book and stood up. He came around the desk and looked at her. She was holding a wristwatch in her hand.

"Were you looking for that?" he asked.

Raelle nodded her head, "Yup!"

"Why?"

"Just because I wanted to wear it tomorrow," she replied.

Shui Xian shook his head at her and pointed towards a glazed door asking, "What's there?"

Raelle beckoned him saying, "Let's find out together."

Shui Xian looked at her inscrutable expressions before he walked over to her. She slid the glass door open and walked inside with Shui Xian following right behind. As she turned on the lights, Shui Xian was left staring in surprise.

It looked like a study room with neatly arranged documents on the table. On the shelves behind, he could see rows of awards that she had received over the years. He already knew his wife was extraordinary but it was still a little surprising to him. She was really an academic genius.

"Wow!" he exclaimed in awe. "My wife sure is amazing."

Raelle looked at his face and said, "But most of the useless trophies are back in Country G."

"Useless?" repeated Shui Xian. "They are proofs of your accomplishments. It means someone is appreciating your work and encouraging you."

"As if I needed their appreciation to know that I'm doing the right thing. And who asked for their encouragement? I don't feel like proving my worth and I certainly don't need their acceptance," she said with a vacant look on her face. "Besides, all these trophies are only taking up space here."

"Right," Shui Xian just agreed in a small voice. "It surely is taking up a lot of space."

"But it's a good thing, I have enough space to accommodate useless things," replied Raelle making him want to facepalm himself.

His wife and her antics definitely were out of this world!

Apart from those awards, he found music albums arranged on the lower shelf as well. He picked up one of the albums. It was a signed copy from the boy group, he was familiar with.

"Did Hyson gave you these?" asked Shui Xian.

Raelle nodded her head, "Yes, he always sends me the first signed copy of the albums."

"I didn't think you'd like pop music though," said Shui Xian.

Raelle leaned against the wall with her arms crossed against her chest as she said, "It's not like if I don't like pop music, you'll make the music I like."

Shui Xian paused for a minute. It wasn't that he wasn't capable of doing so. It was just that he had distanced himself from music for years now. He hadn't even picked up his guitar in a long while now. And once upon a time, he couldn't sleep without his guitar in his hands.

"Maybe I will," he replied to her. "One day."

Raelle observed the look on his face for a while before saying, "Then I'll wait for that 'one day.'"

"You are really willing to wait?" he inquired doubtfully.

"I am a very patient person, Hubby," said Raelle. "My patience might surprise you."
