Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1170: One Person

"This is really left by my grandma?" asked Raelle as she observed this string of beads more carefully than before. She picked them up from the box and marveled at how brightly it shone. It looked glossy on the outside and shiny on the inside. "I think I heard somewhere that ten-thousand-year-old beeswaxes are spiritual and can protect one's safety. Is it true?"        

    

The texture of this beeswax was delicate and moist. It looked more lustrous the more she looked at it. She could smell the faint fragrance of honey which made her a bit dazed.    

"You must have heard it from your grandfather," mentioned Ru. "Because this saying is quite famous among the older generation. Whether it can protect you or not it not what you should be concerned about. Your concern should be that this is a form of blessing that your grandma left for you."    

"She might have intended to give it to my brother or sister. After all, I wasn't there when she left it with your family."    

"No, but you're about to be born," was what Ru said. "Beeswax is rare and blood beeswax is considered even rarer. She still found it for you. There is a reason why I said she might have intended to give this to you. Because it was my great grandmaster who picked the name Yenay for you."    

Raelle looked into Ru's eyes when she heard that and suddenly said, "It seems there is a lot I don't know."    

"You don't have to know everything," was Ru's answer. "Anyway, if you think this gift is useless to you, I can give you something else too."    

"There is no need for that," said Raelle. "Not only do I like this unique gift, but the fact that you have already given me a lot since we met is enough. It's me who didn't return the gesture."    

"As long as you like it," commented Ru. "No need to think so much. You say that you don't lack anything and this young master doesn't lack anything even more. There is nothing that I haven't seen in life. So, gifts are not for someone like me."    

Saying that he took out a chocolate from his pocket and unwrapped it to take a bite. Raelle saw this all as she rubbed the string of prayer beads. She slowly wore it around her empty wrist and found it quite pleasing to the eye.    

"You really like chocolates?"    

"There aren't many things I don't like either," answered Ru. He took out another chocolate bar and showed it to Raelle. "See? The one I'm eating is dark chocolate. And this one is white chocolate. Both have different tastes and brings different pleasure. I love dark chocolate but that doesn't mean I don't like white chocolate. You don't have to insist on liking one thing. Changing your taste is okay."    

Raelle nodded her head and said, "I should try different flavors then."    

"You should. Don't deprave yourself so much." Suddenly, his hand went behind Raelle's ear, and with a click when he brought the hand in front of Raelle's eyes, a gorgeous red rose appeared in his hand. Even Raelle's eyes were momentarily stunned when she looked at this. "For you!"    

Raelle took the rose and couldn't help asking, "How did you do that?"    

"Magic!" said Ru.    

"I don't think so," replied Raelle.    

"It's just small tricks," said Ru.      

"Why the red rose?"    

"I guess it suits you," answered Ru. "It symbolized the passion that you have in your heart. It's definitely the right flower for you." Taking a pause, he whispered, "Also, this was the only flower my little uncle prepared for his girlfriend. So, I only found this in the penthouse."    

This time, Raelle ended up smiling. It was a very small smile and almost imperceptible but it was certainly a smile.    

....    

Meanwhile, Mu Chenyan was feeling a little blocked and restless for some reason. Xia Zhao could understand her feelings and pulled her to his bedroom and made her sit before asking, "What's wrong? What's bothering you?"    

"I don't know," answered Mu Chenyan. "I didn't realize Justin's identity would involve so many things. I'm not sure how to feel about this."    

"No matter what nothing can change the fact that he is your Xiang family's child," mentioned Xia Zhao.    

"Who dares to say no?" she retorted. "I'd tear them apart who questioned his identity."        

    

"Then what are you worried about? Aren't you very capable? What's the problem? If you can't handle something, I'm still here too."    

Mu Chenyan smiled involuntarily at his words. She had complete trust in his words. She knew what he said was right. And he'd stick to those words too. It actually felt good to know that someone was standing behind her to protect her. She hadn't had this feeling for years. More precisely since her godmother died.      

No, it's not that Elder Xiang won't protect her but it's just that Elder Xiang had a different personality and temperament. He mostly didn't speak out about his feelings. So, even if he always stood behind her, it was different.    

Mu Chenyan proactively took his hand into her own and told him, "I'm just very distressed. I didn't know that such a young child had been through so much. Even before his birth he had been on a run and after his birth too, who knows what kind of things he faced. Even if he doesn't remember all that but subconsciously, all of that would have left some mark on his little mind. I'm very worried. No wonder, Tang Hebe was looking for a doctor for him." She was really worried when she thought about what kind of affect all that would have had on Justin's mind. "Now, I understand why he felt so close to Raelle. In the end, they were the same kind of people. Both had to face a lot from their birth."    

"You're worried that Justin would become like Raelle? Withdrawn and emotionless?" asked Xia Zhao and seeing her not denying his words, he sighed. "You're worrying for no reason. Justin is still different from Raelle. Haven't you noticed it last night? He might be a shy kid who doesn't like socializing but he loved Weimin. It's like the call of blood is too intense. He is drawn towards Weimin every single time and he actually starts acting like a normal kid when Weimin is around. So, his condition isn't as serious as you think. With proper love and care and attention, he'd be a lot more open. And even if he isn't, do you think you won't like him? You love Raelle, do you think you can resist Justin?"    

Everything he said was true and Mu Chenyan didn't know what else to say. All her worries were for nothing. She was just depressing herself by overthinking so much. It was better to just let it be.      

"How did your nephew get such detailed information?" asked Mu Chenyan curiously. "I don't think this information is that easy to find."    

"He had means, you don't," answered Xia Zhao.    

"For instance?" asked Mu Chenyan. "I also have a lot of connections on the dark side."    

"Having connections is different from being a part of the dark side," said Xia Zhao. "Ru knows a lot about this dark side because he had been part of it for a long time too."    

"Part of the Mafia?" asked Mu Chenyan. "I didn't think someone from your family would do something like that."    

"You should expect the unexpected from Young Master Ru. He does everything according to his mood. He infilterated the underworld and became an overlord, just because he wanted to find someone. And not did he find out that organization, but also wiped it out. So, as I said, he has the means. He had been a core member of the underworld. It's not a surprise that he knows a lot more than you and I."    

"Core member?" repeated Mu Chenyan and her eyes widened as she stood up. "That's why he looks so familiar!" She ran out to find Ru who was about to leave and asked, "How are you related to Alev Knight?"    

There was no change on Ru's face when he heard that question but Xia Zhao's brows moved a little in surprise.    

"Alev Knight?" repeated Ru with a lopsided grin that was directed at his little uncle. "Let's say we are so close that we can be considered one person."    

Xia Zhao almost rolled his eyes when he heard that answer while Ru seemed very satisfied with the answer he gave. On the other hand, Raelle had a thoughtful look and Mu Chenyan was frowning.    

"Yanyan, are you talking about the Lord Alev Knight? The one related to the Royal Family?" asked Raelle.    

Ru's playfulness vanished as he asked, "How is he related to the Royal Family?"    

"Don't they say that he was about to marry the Princess before he disappeared?"    

"Marry her? I haven't lost my mind yet!"
