Master's Untamed Wife

"There are so many people with malicious intentions," commented Cloe, feeling frustrated. "Entertainment circle has never been short of such people who love to use underhanded means. What a shame!" As if forgetting that Raelle was her boss, she complained, "Why did you even allow Hyson to become an idol? It's a dangerous place for a cute bunny-like him."

Raelle really wanted to tell her that the 'cute bunny' had sharp teeth and even sharper claws. It was just that he hid them well. Or more precisely, Hyson never found the reason to bite someone to death. But if one thinks that he was simple for a place like an entertainment circle, then they were hugely mistaken!

"And do you think there are no such people in the corporate world?" asked Raelle. Cloe stilled at that question while Raelle went on, "Humans are the same everywhere. The corporate world is just as cruel as any other. Isn't that why they, even in business, we are all fighting a bloody battle."

Cloe couldn't refute those words. It was indeed true that there were such people everywhere. She had dealt with plenty of malicious people while following Raelle. But she seemed to have forgotten that now. Perhaps, because she had gotten way too used to it and found it nothing noteworthy. But when the same thing happened with someone she admired, she really felt it was wrong.

"Check your mail," instructed Raelle. "And stop disturbing me now. Just because my husband isn't around doesn't mean I'll allow you to take his time."

Cloe gaped at her in disbelief, "You..."

"What?"

Cloe forced herself to smile at her, "Nothing."

"How's your allergy?" asked Raelle.

"Well, it's under control," just as she said it she ended up sneezing again.

"Is that what you call having it under control?" inquired Raelle.

Cloe scratched the tip of her nose saying, "It seems I have to pay a visit to the hospital."

"Tomorrow morning, after the board meeting, you can leave," said Raelle.

"How thoughtful of you, Chief!"

"I just don't want you to spread your germs to me," added Raelle as if she wasn't doing it for her health's sake at all.

However, Cloe didn't mind that answer from her at all. It already meant a lot that Raelle was willing to give her a day off. "Good night, Chief! I'll see you tomorrow."

As soon as Cloe hung up, Shui Xian's voice rang, "What happened to Yue Fai?"

Raelle looked at the iPad screen and found him drinking the soup just as she had asked him to do. His hair was dry now and looked fluffy making anyone want to run their fingers through his hair. But obviously, Raelle couldn't do it now that he was so far away.

"Nothing for you to worry about," replied Raelle.

"What? Are you gonna hide it from me?" inquired Shui Xian.

"No," answered Raelle. "If you want to know then okay." Then she briefed him about everything that happened online on this day.

Shui Xian wasn't surprised to hear any of it. After all, he was more familiar with these tactics than Raelle. But he didn't worry about Hyson since he already knew Hyson didn't need his help at all. There were people who could protect Hyson. And not only that, Hyson could protect himself very well. He was like a rose with poisonous thorns. Otherwise, he wouldn't have managed to survive in this circle for so long without any rumors about him.

But even though he knew all of this, he still had his own plans for Hyson. It was just that he didn't plan to share them with Raelle for now.

"How are you feeling now?" asked Raelle when Shui Xian was done drinking his chicken soup and got under the blanket.

"I just got a little wet," replied Shui Xian. "It's nothing serious. I didn't catch a cold. I only sneezed a couple of times because my hair was wet. Now, I'm already feeling all warm and fuzzy. But it could be better if I could hold you in my arms."

"Why are you still thinking about hugging me?"

"Because these days, my wife rules my thoughts," answered Shui Xian sincerely. "I have only been here for one day and all day, I've been thinking what would I do when I meet you."

"Really?"

"Really!" He took a pause and asked, "Did you think about me?"

Raelle shook her head honestly, "When I was about to eat my lunch, that's only when I thought about you."

Shui Xian sighed ruefully but instantly perked up, "At least, you remembered me."

"Actually," continued Raelle. "When I was searching for videotapes in the storeroom, I again thought of you. There were plenty of things to remind me of you."

"That makes me feel good," said Shui Xian. "By the way, why were you looking for those videotapes? Are you curious about my childhood? You want to know what your husband looked like when he was young?" His eyes were sparkling with intense light. He was anticipating an affirmation from her. Because that meant, she was interested in knowing him at a time when she wasn't in his life.

"Not really," Raelle pricked the bubble of his dreams with her truth almost instantly. "It's because Bà told Hyson how Yue sang at one of your birthday parties and he was curious to hear her voice. That's why Bà was looking for those videotapes. I was just helping him."

"Waifu, can't you lie just to make me happy?"

"The castle built with sand is prone to drown with the first wave of the water," answered Raelle. "Lying is also like sand. You can never achieve happiness with it."

Shui Xian stared at her in silence for a long while before he smiled at her, "Babes, I miss you."

"Already?"

He nodded his head, "Yes. Already. In fact, I miss you more than I thought I would. Certainly, I overestimated myself."

"Then you better work hard and come back soon," suggested Raelle.

"Yes, I should," answered Shui Xian with a sweet and indulgent smile on his lips.
