Master's Untamed Wife

"I..." Mayor Le's lips parted but nothing really came out. He felt like his head was buzzing. He couldn't even think clearly under Raelle's attentive gaze. There was a threatening power in those blank eyes that seemed to put him under a freezing spell.

"It seems I really have to gift you that book on parenting," remarked Raelle casually.

Soren placed a fist before his mouth and pretended to cough to hide his smile while Shui Xian didn't even bother doing that. On the other hand, Cloe was enjoying herself. She didn't think there'd be excitement, at this charity gala. She was planning on sleeping here. Who knew she'd come across a fool who had to insult Raelle Xiang and that too with such arrogance!

Le Xiaye's lips trembled in anger as she shot Raelle a furious look. Her eyes reddened as she changed her tactic and said to her father, "Daddy, she insulted me like this back then as well. I was so angry when she said that my parents needed a book on parenting. Don't you think she is insulting our whole family?"

"Your daughter is loud," said Raelle. "And I don't like loud things."

Mayor Le held his daughter's wrist tightly in his hand and said, "Shut up! And apologize to her right now!"

"Daddy?" Le Xiaye looked so wronged as tears fell from her eyes. Earlier she was just pretending to gain the sympathy of others but now, looking into her father's eyes, she was truly scared. Her father has always given into her since she was an only child. He never raised his voice at her either. Who knew he'd treat her like this in front of everyone. "How can you take her side?" Instead of heeding his words, she grew even more furious.

Mayor Le gritted his teeth, "I said, apologize to her!"

"I won't!" Le Xiaye stubbornly refused.

"It seems Mayor Le is getting comfortable in his position," commented Soren as he grew impatient with this loud girl. Originally he was just watching a show since he knew Raelle didn't need his help but seeing how this spoiled brat even refused to listen to her own father and even yelled at him, a displeased feeling engulfed his heart.

"It's been a while," added Shui Xian. "Surely Mayor Le would be feeling comfortable."

Mayor Le felt a chill shrouding him when he heard these two people speak up. They were clearly standing on Raelle's side. He'd be a fool if he couldn't even see that.

"If you didn't apologize, don't think about staying at my house!" threatened Mayor Le to his daughter in a low voice.

"I don't need an apology," said Raelle at this time. "I don't like insincere apologies. You better make her disappear from here. I suddenly don't find her pleasing to the eyes."

Mayor Le nodded his head, "Yes, sure. President Raelle, I apologize on my daughter's behalf. If she offended you in any way, please don't take it to your heart. I really didn't do a good job at parenting. Don't worry, I'll discipline her well. I'm really sorry for this." He even offered a humble bow before dragging his daughter away.

"He's tactful," said Shui Xian.

"That's called being cunning," Soren chimed in. "And that's a talent any politician would have. He is no different." He turned to Raelle and asked, "But I wonder, how did that brat end up crossing paths with our Raelle Xiang? You both come from two very different worlds."

"Raelle Xiang?" they heard the voice of that old man who had been just listening to everything until now silently.

Raelle turned her eyes to him. The old man was about the same age as her grandfather, or perhaps a little younger than him. He was wearing glasses that made him look like a cultured old man. He had soft features that gave him a mild temperament.

"Xiang Tianyu's granddaughter?" he asked again.

"That's who I am, Professor Gou," replied Raelle.

The old man Gou's brows raised up in surprise when she recognized him and his lips curled up slightly, "That brat, Mu Chenyan really raised you well. I can see her shadow in you."

"My Yanyan is not a brat," said Raelle. "You don't get to say it even if you're her maternal uncle."

Old man Gou's eyes widened slightly, "You really know me well, eh?"

"Even if you're considered a distant relative, you're still my Yanyan's relative, I should know something about you," was all Raelle said in her explanation.

What she didn't say was that she knew all the history of the Mu and Gou family. One was Mu Chenyan's paternal family and the other was her maternal family. It wasn't that Mu Chenyan had no relatives in both families, it's just that she had no direct relative. And how could she not know these two well-known families? Both families had expertise in the medical field.

The only difference was that the Mu family had served as military doctors for generations while the Gou family excelled in medical research. And this old man Gou was currently the Dean of the most prestigious teaching hospital in the Kia District. Not only that, the Gou family even had their hospital branches all over the country. They certainly weren't someone just anyone could interact with.

"Tell your Yanyan to pay a visit to her uncle," said Old man Gou. "She should stop acting like we are all dead."

"That is something entirely up to her," said Raelle.

"Little lady, you really talk like Chenyan and it's infuriating."

"You aren't the first one to point that out."

Old man Gou peered at her for a minute before asking, "What are you gonna do with Mayor Le?"

"Ah, that just reminded me," said Raelle and turned to Cloe. "Help me wrap up a book on parenting and personally visit Mayor Le to gift it. We should help the ones in need."

Old man Gou's lips twitched while Soren and Shui Xian burst out laughing at her words. That was something only she'd say. Of course, if it was up to them their revenge would have been to directly send Mayor Le back home packing.. But Raelle was never on the same track of mind as them.
