Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1259 Fragile Child

Xiang Wai looked at her brother with a complicated gaze. Did she ever notice that while she was running after that lonely and sad boy, she was actually making her own brother lonely too? No, it seemed she never really noticed it. Could she blame it on him for never voicing out his feelings? No, she couldn't. It was a family thing. None of them seemed to be good at expressing their feelings. And he'd never tell her that he wanted attention. Only she was the idiot one who was always ready to tell everyone how much she wanted their attention and love and care.

"Stop looking at me with that disgusted look," said Xiang Weimin. "Let's start the next round."

"Ge, you have to learn to ask for things if you want them. Silence isn't always the answer. Sometimes you have to be unreasonable to get what you want. Being so understanding and considerate makes people ignore you way too easily."

Xiang Weimin gave her a smile, "What are you even imagining in that head of yours? Do I look like a pitiful guy? Sister, when I was born, the whole Xiang family revolved around me. I was the sweetheart of our late grandma. I had a very loving family. So, what makes you think I'm pitiful?"

Xiang Wai's expression changed once she heard that and humphed at him, "I forgot, you're just as good at hurting people as Raelle."

"I just told you the truth. What can I do about this truth hurting you?"

"Ge, don't talk."

"Why can't he talk?"

Xiang Wai looked up when she heard that question and waved at Mu Chenyan then she found Xia Zhao following her and raised her brow in confusion. "Aunt, didn't you go out in the morning with Aunt Yue? How did your partner for the day change in the middle?"

"Yue went on a date and left me alone," replied Mu Chenyan. "I had to find someone."

"So, you also started your own date?" she asked.

"It wasn't a date. He was just helping me with shopping and also with carrying shopping bags."

"So, that's a date. Shopping date."

Mu Chenyan gave Xia Zhao a look who looked very innocent and shook her head. "Forget it. You can just call it a date."

"As I should," replied Xiang Wai. "Do you wanna have dinner?"

"No, we ate outside," said Mu Chenyan.

"And she just claimed it wasn't a date," muttered Xiang Wai to herself. "Where did you go? What did you eat? How was the food?"

"Do you have to know these details?" asked Xiang Weimin. "Let them be."

"Oh," Xiang Wai shut up.

"Didn't you two have dinner?" asked Mu Chenyan.

"No," responded Xiang Wai.

"Why?"

"We were playing games."

Mu Chenyan chuckled, "Something is wrong with the kids of this family. They are doing things they should have done when they were really kids."

"Was that an insult?" asked Xiang Wai.

"Did you feel it?" "Nope. Not at all."

"Then it was not an insult."

"I'll take your word for it, Aunt. Who made you my favorite aunt in the world?"

Mu Chenyan shook heer head at Xiang Wai and turned to Xia Zhao, "Help me move these bags to my room."

"Yes, m'lady!"

Seeing them walking away, Xiang Wai's lips twitched, "What the hell? Isn't she a little too natural at ordering him around?"

"Why does it matter when he is willing to listen?" was Xiang Weimin's response. "By the way, I almost forgot to ask. Did you submit your bridesmaid application to Raelle?"

Xiang Wai groaned and punched the air, "I almost missed the deadline because I didn't know what to do. I can't believe she put me through this. The only sliver lining is that she was fair enough to pull Cloe into this. But that Cloe is no good. After staying with Raelle for so long, she also has Raelle's colors. I asked her for help and she didn't help at all. You know what she said? She said she had already submitted her application long ago. It made me want to do something."

"Do whatever you want, just don't hit her. I don't think that'll give you any good points with Raelle."

"Why else do you think I held back?" asked Xiang Wai. "Sigh. It's so tiring. Is it really too much to ask for? I really didn't think so."

"So, what did you write?" asked Xiang Weimin curiously. He was genuinely curious because knowing Xiang Wai, he for sure knew what she was capable of.

"Don't ask. I don't wanna repeat what nonsense I wrote."

"Why did you write nonsense?"

"Because I'm still betting on the fact that Raelle might end up liking my nonsense and give me a green card."

"Why do you have this illusion?"

"Doesn't she seem to like Yue Fai's nonsense?"

"Are you Yue Fai?" he asked.

"I don't wanna be him."

"I don't you can be. At least, not in Raelle's life."

Xiang Wai clutched her chest and gave her brother a hurt look, "Ge, you don't have to attack me like this."

"I did no such thing."

"I agree with him," came Mu Chenyan's voice. "I don't think he said anything wrong."

"Aunt, are you taking sides? I thought we weren't supposed to do that in this family. It can scar a child's heart."

"Who is the child here?" asked Mu Chenyan.

Xiang Wai pointed at herself, "Me! I have kept my fragile, small child alive in the corner of my heart. The same child that had longed for the love of a family. You can't scar that child."

"Is it that serious?" asked Mu Chenyan.

"What do you think?" retorted Xiang Wai. "It's really that serious," said Xiang Weimin. "You shouldn't do this with her. Or her fragile heart might not be able to take it in."

"Scary," commented Mu Chenyan as she went to the kitchen to find herself something to drink.
