Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1258  Long Over It

"What did you make?" asked Xiang Wai as she jumped on the couch almost spilling Xiang Weimin's drink.

"Can you stop jumping around like a little girl?" asked Xiang Weimin.

"Can't do," replied Xiang Wai as she sat cross-legged, putting all her weight on her elder brother.

"Then please give me a warning before doing this. You could have dropped the hot coffee on yourself," said Xiang Weimin seriously.

"I'll try to keep that in mind," Xiang Wai sounded extremely perfunctory and Xiang Weimin was really helpless about her attitude. "By the way, why did you make hot coffee in this hot weather?"

"Felt like drinking it," answered Xiang Weimin.

"Then why did you make it yourself?"

"You know that I like to drink hand-brewed coffee but only made by myself."

"You have weird quirks," said Xiang Wai.

"Is there something new about that?"

"Nope."

Xiang Weimin sipped on his coffee with something on his mind. Xiang Wai held her phone and kept watching something. Hearing the sound of someone munching on something, Xiang Weimin's peace was destroyed and he had to ask, "Wai, what the hell are you watching?"

"This!" she replied as she showed him the screen where all he saw was a huge spread on the table. "This is called Mukbang."

"Is it fun? Watching others eat?"

"Isn't it?" she asked in response.

"I don't see the fun in it," he replied. "Ge, you need to change. Or your son will soon say that you're boring."

"The only person who calls me boring is you," said Xiang Weimin. "My son isn't that insensible."

"Tsk. I'm no longer your favorite person. Boohoo!"

Xiang Weimin looked at her dramatic look and scrunched up his face. "Come, I'll play a game with you. Stop watching these videos."

Xiang Wai had to think about it for a while seriously before she agreed, "What game?"

"Let's play the League?" he asked.

"Good idea but do you know how to play?"

"You're asking as if you're very good at playing games?"

"Better than you Ge," she replied. "Where is your phone? Download the game. Let's play."

"Okay," agreed Xiang Weimin. As long as he could stop her from watching those eating shows that got on his nerves. He really couldn't enjoy the sound of people eating. But then again, he never understood most of Xiang Wai's interests. But that didn't stop him from playing along with her for all his life. "I heard you went to see Mom."

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"Can't I go to see her?"

"It's weird. You never take the initiative to look for her," reminded Xiang Weimin.

"A lot has changed in me recently, Ge. Haven't you noticed?"

"I have."

"Then do you like this change?"

"As long as you don't lose yourself in this change, I'm fine with whatever you become."

Xiang Wai smiled at him and snatched his phone to download the game and set up an account for him thoughtfully too. She knew why he suggested playing games with her even though he never really had a real interest in video games. "Are you planning a proposal?"

"The more I wanted it to be a secret, the more I feel like people know about this."

"Wai, to be honest, you have never been good with secrets. I won't be surprised if even Yanjun knew by now what you're up to."

"NO!" exclaimed Xiang Wai unhappily. "He can't know that. It's a surprise for him. I have to catch him off guard."

Xiang Weimin patted her head, "Silly."

"Ge, it's not nice to insult your sister like this."

"That wasn't an insult," he replied. "On another note, did you submit your application to Raelle?"

Xiang Wai slumped down, "I did. She hasn't responded yet."

"What did you write?" asked Xiang Weimin curiously.

"It's private," said Xiang Wai not wanting to tell him what kind of absurd application she had written. "It's done," she passed his phone back to him. "Let's play."

Soon, there was only the game sounds echoing in the room where they sat. As Xiang Wai was about to make the final shot, her phone rang ruining the game. She looked at the caller ID and sighed before picking up to say, "Stop calling. Don't ruin my game."

"Who is it?" asked Xiang Weimin.

"Captain Teng from my team," answered Xiang Wai.

"Why is she looking for you?"

"Something about a farewell party or something."

"Isn't that good?"

"Why? I don't see the point. I don't think we are that close."

"You all went through life-threatening missions together. And you're still not close? If you weren't close, why would you be willing to stand with your back towards those people? Aren't you afraid of them backstabbing you?"

"I had trust in my team."

"Exactly my point," he said. "Trust is what bonded you all together. So, saying that you aren't that close can be hurtful. Why don't you just tell them honestly."

"What?"

"That Major Xiang Wai is a softie who doesn't like emotional things like farewell parties since they kind of mark the end of something and you never like endings."

Xiang Wai paused the game to stare at her brother, "Ge!"

"What? Am I wrong? You don't even watch the ending of shows just because you don't want to go through the strange emotions of parting."

Xiang Wai rubbed her forehead, "It's a very dangerous thing to have a brother who can see through you."

"You're very fortunate that I'm your brother."

"That's true," she agreed to that very readily making even Xiang Weimin a bit surprised. "Are we the only people at home today?"

"Yeah."

"Even Grandfather is not home?"

"Nope," he replied.

"Where did he go?"

"Don't know. Uncle Shing took him out somewhere."

"Oh." Xiang Wai focused on the game again but still couldn't help talking, "Ge, how is your son? I haven't seen him in a while."

"You literally met him the day before yesterday," he reminded.

"I did? Why don't I remember that?"

"Your memory is like a fish. How is it my fault?"

"Ge! You don't let go of any chance to insult your own sister, eh?"

"At least, I don't allow others to insult you."

"Why not? You don't say anything to Raelle or even Yue Fai."

"They are not just in the category of 'others'."

Xiang Wai shook her head at him. "How is your birthday preparation for Justin?"

"I'm just looking for a cake."

"Everything is else is done?"

"Yeah. Mostly."

Xiang Wai nodded, "You're very dedicated to it. Even though you have never done anything like organizing a birthday or something."

"It's important to me."

"Sure it is. What cake do you have in mind?"

"He likes dinosaurs so something along that line."

"Ge, what do I like?"

"There are a lot of things you like. For instance, you love fireworks, rain, sweet things, wildflowers and you have an obsession with maple trees. There are plenty of other things too."

"Okay. You do know me well," she sighed. "Then why did I never see you giving me a birthday cake inspired by my likes?"

"Who is a fan of birthdays in our family?"

Xiang Wai went silent before saying, "No one."

"Exactly," answered Xiang Weimin.

Xiang Wai sighed at that. How could she forget that there was no one who liked birthdays in this house? At least, they didn't like celebrating that day or making it a huge deal. She used to think she had a weird family but now that she had met all her family, she could only say they were weirder for sure but also very special in their own ways.

"Ge, do you know why I'm obsessed with maple trees?" asked Xiang Wai curiously. She really wanted to see if he knew since he seemed to know everything about her. "Because you and Yanjun went on your first date in the maple forest in the middle of the autumn."

Xiang Wai stared at him in shock which messed up the game and they lost. Xiang Weimin put down the phone and looked at her.

"What? Is it surprising that I know that?"

"You don't think there is anything weird about you knowing so much about my personal life?"

"Who told you to be a talker when you're drunk? Don't forget, you always came to me after getting drunk. How would I not know all this? First, you love talking. Second, I have a good memory. So, I don't see a reason why I shouldn't know all this."

"Then do you know why we went to the maple forest for our first date?"

"Because when we were younger, that's where you first met Zhai Yanjun. Our families were on a picnic there together."

"Damn! You know too much."

Xiang Weimin chuckled, "Then learn to stay quiet when you're drunk. I won't know all this."

"I don't think I told you this?"

"It wasn't hard to know this considering I was also on that picnic with you guys and it was the first time, you stopped running after me like a tail and paid attention to another guy."

Xiang Wai perked up, "Ge, do I smell jealousy?"

"Yes. Because I was truly mad back then seeing my cute little sister paying too much attention to the guy she just met all because he looked too quiet and lonely to her."

"Sorry about that," she said.

Xiang Weimin shook his head, "Forget it. I'm long over it."
