Master's Untamed Wife

Shui Xian coughed to get their attention as he said, "Excuse me! The one you're calling your soulmate is my wife."

"I know," was Hyson's response.

"Oh, really? I thought you needed a reminder!"

Hyson smiled at Shui Xian, "Xian Ge, who made the rule that friends can't be soulmates? There are no rules in friendship. Friendship might be a choice but when a friend becomes a part of your whole existence, you are not someone who can decide anything after that. It just happens. The soulmates you find in friends are irreplaceable!"

"And yet you claim to not find a connection with your character," said Shui Xian as he raised his brow in amusement. "It isn't that different from what you just said. In friendship you have a choice, in love, you don't have a choice. It just really happens without you even realize it. In fact, by the time you realize the awakening of that love, it'd have already taken a root in your heart."

While Hyson was contemplating his words, Shui Xian's gaze turned to his wife as he continued, "Although I agree with my wife that love is an emotion of destruction, I also have to say that love is often salvation as well. It does break you but it is also the only salve for a wound. The wounds of love are only capable of healing with love. There is no other cure known to men."

There was an eerie silence in the office when they heard a knock on the door before Cloe pushed it open and came inside with Raelle's lunch. She noticed the strange silence that gave her creeps for some reason and hurriedly put down the lunch on the table before running out of there.

Only after Cloe left did Hyson came out of his daydreaming and asked, "Xian Ge, are you looking for a cure of your wounds in my best friend?"

"Until now, she only knows how to rub salt on those wounds," replied Shui Xian.

"Hang in there! Every salve stings in the beginning. My best friend is special, so it might sting for a long time but have faith. She'll definitely cure everything." He finally noticed something and changed the topic, "By the way, what kind of lunch is this?"

"What do you mean?" questioned Raelle.

"If you want to have lunch together, then just get together."

"We are having lunch together," claimed Raelle.

"Ellie, it's more like you're in a long-distance relationship right now."

Raelle gave him a nod, "Isn't the right? There is a somewhat long distance from my office to his company's HQ. So, during the day we are in a long-distance relationship."

"Does that even make sense?"

"Doesn't it?" Raelle's question was directed towards Shui Xian who had been listening to them in silence.

And seeing that he was asked something, he instinctively nodded. In fact, he didn't know what Raelle was asking him since a while ago, all his focus was on his wife's face and the voices were just somewhere in the background that he purposely ignored.

"It's not like you can't cross this long-distance," said Hyson while disregarding the fact that Shui Xian just agreed with Raelle's nonsense. Her logical thinking had been so inarguable that he believed that now even if she talked nonsense, people would just accept it. And that's exactly what happened just now.

"Troublesome!" replied Raelle. "Also, why waste time?"

Hyson scoffed at her, "Let's see for how long keep this long-distance up!"

Later, Raelle shared her lunch with Hyson without a word.

"Yue Fai, how long is the shooting schedule?"

"About four months," replied Hyson. "Director Jade is in a hurry to film the movie before the end of the summer. So, that they can release it by the end of the year."

"Who is the director?" asked Shui Xian.

"Amiah Jade," answered Hyson and Shui Xian's face stiffened for a split second before it relaxed again. "She's an internationally renowned director. The Assistant Director and also the screenwriter of the movie is Sora. I heard that since Sora is a friend of Amiah Jade, only that's why this director actually decided to take this job."

Shui Xian parted his lips as if wanting to say something but as the words were at the tip of his tongue, he decided to not say it. He didn't think it was necessary to tell Hyson anything about Amiah Jade. If he did say something, it might make Hyson feel uncomfortable around her.

And from their contrasting personalities, he could already tell that Hyson was not gonna have an easy time with Amiah. And he couldn't talk to her either, because if he did, she'd make things more difficult for Hyson on purpose. It was better to play ignorant for now.

"Did you tell Yue?" asked Raelle. "That you have to go for four months?"

Hyson shook his head, "No. I just got to know the details today. In fact, I only signed the contract today as well. So, now I'm planning on going to see Tianyu and Yanyan. Then in the evening, I'll visit mum." He suddenly put the bowl of the soup in his hand on the table and held Raelle's shoulder before making her turn to look at him, "Ellie, do you know what's happening with Yanyan these days?"

"Why?"

"She looks so happy," said Hyson.

"You don't like her happiness?"

"No, that's not what I meant!" Hyson flicked her forehead lightly saying, "It's just strange. I have never seen her glowing in this way. It's making me really curious about what she is up to."

"Stop being nosy and focus on your own life," Raelle advised him. "Whatever is Yanyan up to, even Opa is not curious. As long as it's making her happy, who cares what she is up to."

"You and I both know that nothing stays hidden from Tianyu. It's not that he isn't curious, it's just that he already knows what she up to."

"Yue Fai, you're sounding like a neighborhood auntie who loves gossips."

Hyson stared at Shui Xian, "Xian Ge, how can you say that? I'm not gossiping. I'm just concerned about Yanyan. And she is family. Don't I have the right to know?"

"Those excuses are good," replied Shui Xian with a subtle smile on his face.

"Forget it then," said Hyson. "But let me warn you both. Before I finish my shooting, don't you dare to hold a reception. I wasn't even invited to my best friend's wedding. Now, I have to be there at the reception at any cost. Just contact me before planning it. Even if I have to reshuffle the who schedule, I'll still come."

"We didn't hold a wedding ceremony," reminded Shui Xian. "We only received our marriage certificates because it's time-efficient."

"We can arrange a wedding ceremony," said Raelle shocking both Hyson and Shui Xian. She held Hyson's gaze as she went on, "But the condition, you'll have to be my maid of honor."

Hyson glared at her while Shui Xian covered his mouth to hide his laughter.

"You chicken nugget!" exclaimed Hyson. "Fine! You arrange a wedding and I promise to be your maid of honor! Let's see who backs off first."

"Really?"

"Yes, really! After all, between you and I, the first one to back would be you," claimed Hyson.

"How are you so certain?" asked Shui Xian.

Hyson gave a smirk to Shui Xian before looking at Raelle, "Ellie darling, do you know how much time is needed for a wedding ceremony? You have to look for wedding planners, decide on the venue, the decorations, the color of the flowers, the cake tasting, the wedding dress. It takes about four or five fitting sessions for one wedding dress. And what if you didn't like the cake at the first tasting? Then you'll have to arrange another day for the second tasting. Then there is a food menu as well. There is the guest list and... mmph!" Raelle has placed a hand on his mouth to shut him up.

"Fine. I back off first. I don't have that much time to waste. Too troublesome!"

Hyson gave Shui Xian a look while wiggling his brows. Didn't he say he knew which wire of hers to poke? He wasn't just saying it! He meant it. Raelle Xiang would never do anything troublesome. A wedding is certainly considered troublesome to someone like her.

After laughing out loud, Hyson said, "Ellie, you have such a nice husband. You're really not nice at all."

Raelle shrugged her shoulders, "The one who is nice, is my husband. Does it still matter if I'm nice or not? Isn't it enough that my husband is nice?"

While Shui Xian's lips curled up in a full-blown smile, Hyson was left rubbing his forehead. He really shouldn't have started it. Since he was done talking to her, he stood up to leave, "I should let you both enjoy your time together."

As he picked up his jacket from her side to leave, she held his hand to stop him. As Hyson turned back she said, "Take care of yourself out there. Don't forget to take your anti-allergy medicine. And take some warm clothes. In fact, it's alright if you forget something. Just let me know, I'll arrange it for you."

Hyson placed his hand on her head, "I'll take care of myself." Then he turned to Shui Xian and added, "And you take care of her. Because she can't do it."

"You don't even have to say it," replied Shui Xian.
