Usually, Shui Koshing would prefer reading newspapers or financial news in the morning even if he was no longer a part of the circle. However, today his steward brought something very interesting to his attention and he couldn't help looking at it.
Holding the iPad in his hand, he scrolled through all the trending topics and a pleased smile appeared on his face.
"Master seem very happy this morning," commented the steward.
Shui Koshing chuckled, "Of course, I am. My son and daughter-in-law are finally announcing their relationship to the whole world. Why would I not be excited?"
"Master, they actually haven't announced anything," the steward pointed out in a humble tone. "They just appeared on the red carpet and seemed close to each other. It's all the media speculations. They didn't tell anyone about their marriage."
Shui Koshing gave him a displeased glance, "Let's not be a spoilsport now. Even if they didn't take the initiative to announce it directly, this is something big! Do you think these 'media speculations' would have been able to appear without my son's knowledge?"
The steward paused and contemplated before nodding, "You're right, Master. Master Xian's PR team would have already done something about these if he wasn't informed."
Shui Koshing nodded, "Exactly! And let me ask you. Have you ever seen anyone daring enough to post even a word about my daughter-in-law?" The steward shook his head. "Raelle always had a private life. She never liked attention even though she grew up in attention. However, since this news is out, it has definitely more to do with her than my own son."
Shui Koshing was feeling better this morning. No, he was feeling amazing. He had been waiting for this moment for so long now.
"Morning, Bà! How are you this morning?"
Shui Koshing looked up and his face brightened up when he saw Raelle. "I'm feeling amazing. How are you, daughter-in-law?"
"Good, I think," she replied.
"Raelle, what do you want to eat for breakfast?" asked Shui Koshing.
Raelle looked at him, not really understanding why this question even came up? When had she ever made requests for food? Wasn't it always the same?
"I can eat anything, Bà," she told him. "I'm not really particular about food."
"It's good to not be picky," said Shui Koshing. "But you should still have some favorite dishes."
"My favorites had always been associated with people," was Raelle's honest response that stunned Shui Koshing for a moment. "I never had a favorite color. But once Hyson said Red is my color, I unconsciously filled my wardrobe with red clothes. I have always liked working but my favorite place to be at had always been home. Because that's where I'd always find my Yanyan and Opa waiting for me. The sweet flavor had never been a prominent part of my life until I met Xian. Since he likes chocolates, I ended up always keeping some with me."
Shui Xian, who was just walking in ended up listening to the last sentence and stiffened. His eyes widened a bit.
"As I said, I never had favorites in life," added Raelle. "It had always been the influence of people around me."
"My daughter is certainly very interesting and unique," commented Shui Koshing with a smile on his face.
"You don't find me weird?"
"Do you find yourself weird?"
Raelle shook her head, "I don't. I know I'm different but definitely not weird."
"Then you don't even have the need to question me that," said Shui Koshing as he shook his head. He looked up to see his son and called out, "Why are you just standing there? Come inside."
Shui Xian woke up from his daydreaming and nodded at his father. As usual, he came to sit right beside his wife and silently just gazed at her face.
"Is there something on my face?" asked Raelle without turning her head to face him.
He shook his head, "Nope. I just still want to look."
"Did you both check the trending list today?" asked Shui Koshing.
"Something interesting there?" questioned Raelle. She was the most disconnected person from social media.
"Oh, everything is interesting there today," answered Shui Koshing. "But I shouldn't be surprised that the stars of the news won't even find the news interesting enough."
As soon as Shui Koshing mentioned the trending list, Shui Xian's face bloomed up. He was grinning like a fool at the thought of all the headlines that put his name together with Raelle. Oh, he didn't know one day seeing his name on the news would feel so satisfying.
But it was! It was so thrilling and satisfying that he couldn't possibly describe it in words.
Shui Koshing knew how Raelle didn't pay attention to such things. Even if she gave the media a green light, that didn't mean she'd know what was going on online. He passed her the iPad and let her look at it carefully.
Raelle read through each and every article online carefully. Then she looked at her husband's grin and asked, "This is why you'd been so happy since you woke up?"
Shui Xian didn't deny her words. And even nodded in agreement to show that it was exactly like that.
Raelle didn't know what to do about it. If she knew this simple little thing would make him so happy, she'd have long done it. Who knew he was actually like a kid who was easily happy?
He moved closer to her and swiped his finger on the screen of the iPad in her hand as he scrolled down to the comments and showed her the top comment that had over 15 thousand likes and the number was only increasing.
The comment was simple, [They look like a perfect match!]
"What do you say about this?" he asked.
Raelle looked at the comment before looking into his twinkling eyes, "I say the commenter has good taste."
Not only Shui Xian but even Shui Koshing couldn't help laughing at her words.. She always knew what to say.
