Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1132: My Greatness

"What Ru said is right. I didn't mean anything else when I told you that I'd be responsible for you. I was just acting upon what I was taught all my life," said Xia Zhao. "My grandparents still aren't happy with me over that incident. It's really considered a sin in our clan. We don't take relationships casually. That's what I was taught too. It's just that we aren't taught about feelings so I didn't know what I felt for you until now. However, you know it in your heart too that I have always put you at the top of my list. There had never been a person more important to me than you. Are you willing to place your hand on your heart that says that there had been someone more important than you in my life?"         

    

Mu Chenyan couldn't do it. She really couldn't. She had plenty of opinions about him but she couldn't just go against her conscience and say that he hadn't treated her as the most important one in his life.     

"There have been many people who were important to you over the years," said Xia Zhao. "Whether it's your godmother, godfather, your brother, or later your nephew and niece. Each one was more important to you than I. Even now, Raelle is the one who comes first to you. I still am way behind all those people. Aren't I?" He took a brief pause and sighed, "Don't you think I should be mad at you instead of you always being mad at me for that night?"     

"What? Are you gonna be mad at me?" Mu Chenyan flared up unreasonably at him once again.      

Xia Zhao smiled at her unreasonable self and said helplessly, "Shouldn't I be? Technically speaking, you were the one who dragged me to the bed that night."     

Mu Chenyan looked away from him but still refused to back down. "So what? Do you regret it? Huh! Anyway, if you really wanted to, you could have stopped it all. You weren't that drunk either that you lost your mind. And I could never win against you either. You didn't stop it. So, you can't regret it either."     

"I never did," said Xia Zhao. "When did I say I regret it? But I do regret letting you walk out of there before understanding why you were mad at me. If I had stopped you, we wouldn't have wasted twenty years of our lives. And Yanzi, how many twenty years do you think we have in our life now? Are you really willing to waste another twenty years because of the same argument all over again?"     

"I don't," she replied as she lowered her head and bit her lip.      

"Then stop being so unreasonable."     

"Now, I am also unreasonable?"     

"You always were."     

"You never mind that before," she pointed out. "The other day I bit off your flesh and you didn't mind. Now, do you mind if I'm unreasonable?"     

"When did I say?" he replied helplessly.     

"You shouldn't be minding that. You are the reason I'm unreasonable. Didn't we already talk about it? Who told you to keep giving in? Who told you to accept all my unreasonableness?"     

"Now, should I say that I have been a bad influence on you?" asked Xia Zhao teasingly. He tapped her head, "I am fine with your unreasonableness. I'm fine with whatever you are. I always had been. Did I ever complain?"     

"No," she replied honestly.     

"Yanzi, look at me," he said and made her face him. He looked into her eyes and said, "I love you!"     

Mu Chenyan couldn't laugh this time because she could see the seriousness in his eyes. In fact, she knew the seriousness of his words when he first time mentioned it but she still took it as a joke.     

"I really do love you," he added. "Call me dull or a fool that it took me so long to realize it. But I realized it. I have liked you for far too long now. I always said you're very important to me but I didn't understand why. Now, I do understand that I love you. I love your unreasonable self. I love it when you act like a kid in front of me."     

"I'm not a kid."     

Xia Zhao chuckled, "Aren't you one? You are mature before everyone else but love to act like a kid with me."     

"Not a kid! Not a kid!" she repeated.     

"Okay. Okay. Our Yanzi is not a kid. She is great!"     

"Of course, I am! But what are you? Can you really handle that greatness of mine?"     

When he didn't answer, she looked at him in dissatisfaction.     

"Weren't you talking so well just now? Why are you so silent now?"         

    

"You just want me to talk?"     

"Who told you to be so silent all the time? Can't I just want to hear more?" asked Mu Chenyan. "I'm not so easy. You have to talk more. Tell me how great I am. Or else it's a no from me!"     

Xia Zhao put his hand on her head lovingly, "What more can I say when no words are enough to describe my Yanzi's greatness? My Yanzi is just too good for this world."     

"Right?" she was pleased to hear that. "So, all those people who says I'm rude and mannerless are just jealous."     

"Yes. They don't know anything," agreed Xia Zhao.     

Mu Chenyan narrowed her eyes at him, "You really love me?"     

"You have a doubt?"     

"Not really. It's just a little difficult to believe. After all, I have thought long and hard for years about what kind of a person you'd fall in love with. In the end, you chose the awesome me to fall in love with. It seems you're not blind."     

"I have very good eyesight. How else would I see how amazing my Yanzi is?"     

He seemed to be coaxing a kid but it actually worked very well on Mu Chenyan. If it was anyone else, it might not have worked but whenever it came to Xia Zhao, Mu Chenyan actually was easy to coax as long as he was willing to coax her softly and gently. If he used his serious tone, she'd be even more difficult to deal with.      

Xia Zhao could only sigh that it took him so long to understand this truth.
