Master's Untamed Wife

Both of them stayed silent until the coffee was served. Absentmindedly, Xiang Weimin picked up his cup to take a sip. Meanwhile, Hyson's eyes were glued to his face.

"I wonder what you called me here for?"

Xiang Weimin was pulled out of his daydreaming with his voice and looked into his eyes, "You don't know?"

"I don't," Hyson replied innocently and even flashed a smile.

"You know," stressed Xiang Weimin with certainty. From what he could see, it was obvious that Hyson wasn't as oblivious to the world around him, even though he loved acting innocent.

"Even if I do know," started Hyson lazily. "I'd like to hear it from you. I don't like answering questions, I haven't even been asked."

"From the beginning, you knew who I was?"

"I have never seen you before, how can you claim that I knew from the beginning. I only figured it out after hearing your name and your rank." He drank his Latté leisurely and licked his lips contently before adding, "I'd be very different if I knew about you from the beginning."

"Why? You wouldn't have saved me if you knew who I was?"

Hyson frowned a little, "What do you think, Lieutenant? What would I have done?"

Xiang Weimin's finger traced the seam of the cup in front of him as he said, "I think you'd have still saved my life."

"Oh?" Hyson quirked his brow at him in interest.

"As you said earlier, you are a nice guy."

Hyson ended up laughing at that statement. He pursed his lips and nodded his head, "Indeed, I'm an exceptionally nice guy."

Xiang Weimin's lips curled up slightly involuntarily. He couldn't help it. The person before him was like a ball of sunshine and he had an infectious personality. In his opinion, Hyson had the ability to direct someone's emotions whichever way he wanted.

"You got close to me because of..." Xiang Weimin hesitated a little as he asked that question.

"Because of Raelle?" Hyson completed his question for him and he could only nod in response. "Absolutely not. While it's true that my likes and dislikes are closely related to my best friend, it does not mean she has the control over my interpersonal relationships." He took a pause to elaborate, "As for why I decided to continue my interaction with you, it's simple. I was interested in doing so."

"You were interested in doing so?" questioned Xiang Weimin strangely.

Hyson sighed out, "Do you know that you share an uncanny resemblance to my best friend?"

Xiang Weimin was startled when he heard that. "Our faces don't really share that much resemblance."

Hyson shook his head, "I wasn't talking about your faces. I meant your personalities." Xiang Weimin was quite intrigued when heard that. However, Hyson didn't explain himself. Instead, he said, "You must be shocked seeing me with her the other night?"

"Yes," accepted Xiang Weimin. "I was not expecting it."

Hyson smiled, "You must have wondered why I didn't tell you that I knew Raelle? Or perhaps, you thought I was deliberately hiding it from you?"

"Those thoughts might have crossed my mind at one point," answered Xiang Weimin honestly instead of dodging it.

"Well, I can assure you that none of that was my purpose," said Hyson in his defense. "What I and Raelle have actually had nothing to do with you. That's why I never mentioned her to you. Raelle is my best friend and that is between us. I didn't think it concerned you, so I didn't say anything."

"Indeed, that has really nothing to do with me," muttered Xiang Weimin.

"I am gonna sound like a jerk saying this but at the end of the day, the only thing you share with Raelle is your bloodline and your surname. Apart from that, I can't think of anything that can link you two together," Hyson just put the truth out on the table brutally.

Xiang Weimin was momentarily lost when he heard him say all that but he couldn't refute his words either. Those words truly pierced his heart but he couldn't find any fault in those words. Indeed, he shared nothing else with Raelle. He only met her for the first time the other night. Before that, he only knew her name. He didn't even know what she looked like.

"Thanks for the reminder," he told Hyson.

"I didn't mean to hurt you," stated Hyson. "I'm just stating facts here. And the fact is, currently you have no place in Raelle's life." Looking at the bitterness in his eyes, Hyson stopped himself from continuing and instead, changed his words. "I know the real purpose you wanted to see me was that you wanted to find a way to reach out to Raelle."

Xiang Weimin stared at him intently. In fact, he wasn't actually surprised that Hyson knew the real purpose of this meeting.

"Then, do you have a way?" asked Xiang Weimin. "No matter what, she is still my youngest sister. I'd love to cultivate some feelings with her."

Hyson chuckled, "Feelings? People usually refrain from using that word around Raelle. Associating feelings with Raelle is a big no-no. Feelings never had a place in her life." He shook his head as he went on, "As for reaching out to her. I'd suggest you not to do so." Xiang Weimin frowned at that. Hyson had a thoughtful look as he looked around as if looking for something and in the end, pointed at his cup of Latté saying, "Our Ellie's life is like this cup of Latté. It needs an appropriate amount of milk, sugar, coffee, or cream. Anything extra is not allowed."

"Before I had no way to find her," said Xiang Weimin. "And now that she is finally around, you're telling me not even try?"

Hyson shook his head, "No. I'm telling you to not reach out to her. Not directly at least. You don't exist in her world. Never did.. As for the future, that depends on how patient you can be."
