Master's Untamed Wife

Xiang Weimin sat in the wheelchair near the window of his hospital ward. The sunlight poured in and he basked with his eyes closed. When he opened his eyes, he looked at the books that Zhai Yanjun left for him.

Today, Zhai Yanjun didn't come to see him. Obviously, he wasn't that free. Just because he was stuck in the hospital didn't mean others didn't have anything to do. And he didn't want to disturb Zhai Yanjun that much either.

In all honesty, he and Zhai Yanjun weren't that close. They only got to know each other after Zhai Yanjun started dating his sister. And by that time, Zhai Yanjun had already joined the military. Because he knew about the temperament of his own sister, he was even more willing to get along with Zhai Yanjun.

But it was a pity that those two didn't get a happy ending. He honestly didn't know who to blame for their on and off relationship. Perhaps the blame lied with both of them. Zhai Yanjun was reticent and his sister was a volcano. It'd be surprising if they really had a peaceful relationship.

As he was about to take a book to read, his cell phone rang. His brows raised up when he read the caller id and then a soft smile twinkled in his usually solemn eyes. He was just thinking about his sister and she actually called, this was truly a pleasant surprise to him.

"Gege, are you in Kia City?"

"Is that how you start a conversation?" Xiang Weimin replied with his own question instead of answering hers. He already knew that she had the answer to that question.

"You're my Gege, why do I have to say hi and hello to you?" came the girl's careless voice.

While Xiang Weimin was strict and somewhat rigid in his life, his sister was the opposite of him. Xiang Wai was too casual about life. For her the moment of fun was everything. But she had a strong sense of responsibility and she loved her job. Because of that, the only time one would find her acting seriously would be when she'd be working.

"Xiao Wai, are you looking for Gege for something?"

Xiang Wai took a moment before answering, "Not really. I was just confirming where you are. I'll come to see you sometime within this week."

Xiang Weimin's interest perked up, "Are you back? Is your mission complete?"

Xiang Wai sounded frustrated when she answered, "Don't even mention it. That man tricked us and entered the country. But it's a good thing, we have a lead for now. You don't have to worry about it, I won't let their organization bring those drugs to our country. That's my promise to you."

He could almost see her hitting her chest when she said those words and it amused him, making his lips curl up ever so slightly in a doting smile. "Hmm... I have my faith in my sister."

"I heard you're gonna stay with the Zhai family?" she asked tentatively.

"That's the plan for now," answered Xiang Weimin honestly.

"Why?" she asked again. "I mean, you can go to mom's place."

Xiang Weimin's expressions shifted as he answered, "Xiao Wai, I have already made plans. Both Granduncle Zhai and his wife are expecting me."

Xiang Wai sighed out, "Mom would be sad to know that you're in the same city but didn't go to see her."

"I am the one in the hospital," reminded Xiang Weimin. "She should come to see me if she misses me so much."

"But you know about mom's work," she sounded helpless. "She can't come and go out of the research center whenever she wants to."

"Well, I don't expect her to come either," said Xiang Weimin flatly. "You shouldn't ask me to go to see her either."

"Fine!" she finally agreed. "I won't say it." She took a pause and added, "But do you really have to go that Zhai Yanjun's family? Doesn't dad also have an apartment here? Just go there."

"Didn't I tell you before that your relationship with Yanjun has nothing to do with me?"

"I remember."

"Then stop this nonsense."

"Am I not thinking for your sake? You have never liked staying at anyone's house," said Xiang Wai. "And then there is also your OCD. Do you expect them to keep note of these things?"

"My OCD isn't that severe. Besides, if it's Yanjun's house, I can manage. I like his grandparents a lot."

"If you want grandparents, go look for your own grandfather," Xiang Wai ended up saying in exasperation but her brother's answer surprised her.

"I plan on doing that," was what Xiang Weimin said. "I heard he is also here." Xiang Wai was even more surprised. She had been out of the country for her mission for months so she wasn't clear about a lot of things.

She thought about her words before questioning, "Is she... I mean did he come alone?"

"No," replied Xiang Weimin. "He brought Raelle with him."

Xiang Wai went silent for a long moment and when he thought she won't say anything, she actually spoke up, "Well, that has nothing to do with us. Their family has nothing to do with us either." Before Xiang Weimin could say anything, she went on, "Anyway, I have to leave now. You won't be able to reach me again. But I'll contact you as soon as I can."

"Okay," said Xiang Weimin softly. "Take care of yourself."

"I should be saying that to you instead," was her response.

Xiang Weimin looked at his phone with a helpless look in his eyes. But he couldn't do anything about this sister of his. She had her own ideas and she was old enough to deal with her own life in her own way. He won't tell her what to do. It wasn't that she won't listen to him but he just didn't wish to do so.

She was an independent woman and Xiang Weimin wouldn't want to change that.
