Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1223  [Bonus chapter] Distrustful

As she pulled away, she patted his chest saying, "You better remember that. Don't forget it."

Shui Xian took a deep breath and fanned his face, "I hate myself for acting like a teenage boy in love around you. Argh!"

"Is it that bad?"

"No. Nothing is bad when you're around."

"Here we go again," said Raelle.

They sat in silence looking at the sky where you couldn't even see a single star tonight because of the clouds. Enjoying the cool breeze, both of them didn't speak for a while.

"Actually," started Shui Xian as he broke the silence. "I think you should let Xiang Wai be the bridesmaid. Usually, it's the best friends of the bride who do it but you don't have friends."

"Who said I don't have friends?" asked Raelle. "I have a friend. In fact, I really do have a friend."

Shui Xian had a bold guess in his mind when he heard her saying that and it was proven true when she pulled out her phone and called Hyson. As the call connected, they both could see Hyson eating pasta. His cheeks were bulging like a squirrel.

Hyson raised his chin to ask why she called since he couldn't speak with so much in his mouth.

"You could've just chewed before taking the call," said Raelle.

Hyson held up his finger asking her to wait as he chewed faster and after swallowing it, he hurriedly said, "I'm not like you who makes everyone wait. It's you who is calling that's why I took the call."

"Just to prove a point?" she asked.

"You can say whatever you want. It's a fact that I took the call even when I'm busy."

"Why are you still eating? Why so slow?"

"I don't wanna talk about this," replied Hyson. "Get to the point."

"Okay, so. You're my best friend, right?"

"I believe so."

"Then would you like to be my bridesmaid? Oh, no! In your case, it should be called bridesman or something, right?"

Hyson's lips twitched and took a sip of the soda before answering, "No thanks. I don't want this honor."

"But you're my only best friend," reminded Raelle. "It's a best friend's responsibility. How can you call yourself my best friend when you can't even do this much for me? Ha? Tell me?"

"Scram!" said Hyson.

Raelle wasn't surprised by his reaction at all but instead asked, "You really refuse?"

"Yes! I refuse!"

"You're gonna leave your best friend alone on her wedding day?"

Hyson looked around and rubbed his forehead before saying, "Ellie, you're looking for trouble? Where did you learn to play this emotions game?"

"You!"

"I should slap myself for teaching you bad things."

"Do it!"

Hyson raised his hand and really slapped himself.

Raelle's lips made the shape of 'O' before she said, "You're really cruel to yourself, eh?"

"And I learned that from you," he answered. "Now, I have punished myself. Please, leave me out of this."

"Is it that bad being my bridesmaid?"

Hyson chuckled, "If you were asking this question sincerely, I promise you, I'd say yes in a heartbeat. I won't even consider my gender and I'd say yes. However, you're not really asking me to be your bridesmaid here."

Shui Xian gave him an appreciative smile. Even from a video call, he could tell that Raelle wasn't serious with him. This best friend definitely was always at the top for a reason.

"In my opinion, you should go and organize a competition. The winner will get to be your bridesmaid," suggested Hyson.

Shui Xian laughed out loud at this.

"Xian Ge, why are you laughing?"

"How can I not? You both have similar thoughts," said Shui Xian as he shook his head.

"Don't tell me. You already organized the competition," said Hyson.

"No. I just asked them to submit their applications and we'll start with the review and then interviews and stuff. So, your idea and mine aren't all that different."

"You're really my favorite best friend! You never let me doubt that we have a heart-to-heart bond."

"I think no one can doubt that," said Shui Xian.

"Wait! How many best friends do you have to say that I'm the favorite one?" asked Raelle. Of course, her attention was different from others.

Hyson sighed, "No one else. I only got you. I'm so lonely. I'm a lonely angel wandering on earth."

"Huh! Calling you the devil would be right."

"Okay, you get to say that. I am the devil of your life," said Hyson. "But you know what?"

"What?" asked Raelle.

"You are really the angel of my life."

"Did you read it from the script?" she asked.

"I said it from my heart. Why don't you believe me?"

"Raelle isn't into believing these days," mentioned Shui Xian. "She is so distrustful of my words too."

"What? What is wrong with you, Ellie? You're doubting the words of the people who love you the most in this world? What a sin!"

"I'm fine being the sinner! You both can drop it now." She didn't want to talk to them both about this at all right now. "Why did you call earlier? Now, you can talk. Only Xian is here and you have nothing to hide from him."

"I wanted to ask what do you want as a wedding gift?"

Raelle stared at him for a full minute in silence, "Really? You called me for this?"

"What else? It's a very important question."

"As long as you don't give me the same wedding gift as the previous one. I'll be happy."

Hyson and Shui Xian both recalled the wedding gift he gave her when she got her marriage certificate and they both had to purse their lips to suppress their laughter. After a while, Hyson said, "But I think it was practical and you used it well. Didn't you?"

"Thank you! I did use it very well," responded Raelle without any shame making Hyson burst out laughing.
