Master's Untamed Wife

"Saozi, how about some tea?"

Raelle looked at Zhai Yanjun who was asking her that question. Although Zhai Yanjun was just standing there being amused by Shui Xian's predicament because of Mu Chenyan, he didn't dare to get involved. He was even in a worse position than Shui Xian before Mu Chenyan. So, it was better to butter up the queen of the family instead.

After all, Shui Xian was only alive because Raelle stood beside him.

"What if I say I don't drink tea?" questioned Raelle.

Zhai Yanjun smiled at her, "Saozi, that's not true. You aren't that particular about what you're eating or drinking."

Raelle lifted her head up from Grandfather Xiang's legs and said, "Oh? It seems you've been paying quite some attention to me, Soldier."

Zhai Yanjun smiled even more sweetly, "It's because I learned whom I'm supposed to look up to."

"You mean flattering," Shui Xian spoke from the side. "But Yanjun, that's my wife. You better don't try to flatter her. She doesn't like people who do that."

Zhai Yanjun frowned at him, "Why are you getting into this? I'm talking to my Saozi here." He again turned to Raelle, "Tea?"

"Okay," said Raelle. Who said she'd refuse him? Wasn't it good to have some serving you? Especially if the server was also good-looking.

Grandfather Xiang patted Raelle's hand, "Get up and sit on the couch."

"I'm fine here," said Raelle. From a very young age, she had the habit of sitting in a position where she had to look up to him. If she stand beside him, she'd have to look down at him in his wheelchair. And she had never liked that. Her grandfather's position was unshakeable in her heart. She didn't think there was anything wrong with kneeling before him.

"Granddaughter, why are you so stubborn?" Grandfather Xiang asked helplessly.

"Because I'm your granddaughter," she replied matter-of-factly.

"Yes, yes, you definitely are my granddaughter," said Grandfather Xiang. He looked at his other grandchildren and said, "Don't mind her. She is just like this. Our family's treasure is a bit special."

Raelle shook his hand, "Just a little bit special?"

"No, you're the most special one!" Shui Koshing chimed in at this point.

"Bà, you aren't that bad either," replied Raelle making Shui Koshing smile at her words.

"Aiyo, thank you for the compliment, my dear daughter-in-law," said Shui Koshing.

"No, no. I'm very serious. You're also very handsome."

Shui Koshing chuckled at her, "Oh, then I'm flattered."

"Saozi, how about me?"

Looking at Zhai Yanjun's eager expression, Raelle paused and said, "You're also okay." Zhai Yanjun's lips spasmed while she went on, "I'd have liked you better if you hadn't gone MIA on our date."

Zhai Yanjun subconsciously looked at Xiang Wai when she brought up that date and just as he had expected, Xiang Wai was really stunned. However, she had controlled her emotions soon and pretended as if nothing happened. But Zhai Yanjun had seen it already. How could she hide it so easily?

"You really hold grudges," said Zhai Yanjun.

"First impressions are the last impressions," was Raelle's reply. "Who told you to enter my life with a wrong impression? Now, how am I supposed to let it go?"

"Ellie, come over here," said Mu Chenyan as she beckoned Raelle out.

Raelle stood up and followed her. "What happened?"

Mu Chenyan touched her face and looked distressed, "What did you do out there? You have so much dust on you."

"I was playing in the mud," said Raelle.

"Were you?" Mu Chenyan asked suspiciously.

Yue pinched Mu Chenyan's arm, 'She is teasing you.'

Mu Chenyan stared at Raelle who confirmed Yue's words as she said, "Why do fall for everything I say? Why does your IQ always lower down when I'm around? You already know I've never played in the mud. What am I? A 3-year-old kid?"

'Her IQ's been offline since she saw her nephew and niece.'

Raelle also nodded, "Oh, so they lowered your IQ even more. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten them here."

Mu Chenyan held her hand, "Don't say that. They are your siblings. It's good that they are here."

"When did I say it's not good? They have the same surname Xiang as mind. Who am I to stop them from coming here?"

Mu Chenyan waved her off, "Forget about that. You tell me what did you do today?" She looked at her hand and frowned deeply, "Why are your hands injured?"

"My hands are not injured though," said Raelle. "I did horseback riding, also some archery. Then we played some tennis."

"No wonder your hands are so red now," Mu Chenyan looked distressed. "Why did you have to do everything on the same day? Your hands are already so sensitive. Let me get some ointment."

Raelle looked at her hands and really didn't think there was anything wrong with her hands but then again, she couldn't argue with Mu Chenyan. If this woman believed that her hands were 'injured' then it was injured. There was no way around it.

"As always, she is overreacting," Raelle commented while Mu Chenyan went to get the first aid kit. It was true that her palms were really red right now and it was also because of the activities she did today. But there was nothing else wrong with her hands.

This was also the reason why Raelle chose not even to mention how she suddenly lost her focus while horseback riding. She knew it'd become a piece of sensational news. It was better to avoid this topic.

Mu Chenyan came back and held out her hand to apply whatever herbal ointment she had concocted for her. Raelle let her be and obediently just stood there. Mu Chenyan kept blowing at her hands while applying the ointment.

"Yanyan, why are you such a busybody?" asked Raelle. "Stop always hovering around me." She pointed at her brother and sister inside as she added, "Look, I brought you two more Xiang. Why don't you divert some attention to them?"

Mu Chenyan pinched her nose, "My Ellie will always be my Ellie. I love them both but they can never be you."

"Your words might hurt them."

Mu Chenyan pursed her lips before saying, "More than my words, it's who is better at hurting people."
