Master's Untamed Wife

Cloe and Cui Xukun took the twins around the mall. Finally, the twins dragged them to the ground floor since they wanted to enter the fun zone where other kids were playing in that field of balls. With slides, hidden small climbing tracks, the place was definitely tempting to kids who were energetic and up to fun at all times.

Cui Xukun took Cloe to the café that was beside this playing area where other parents were keeping a watch on their kids and were also waiting for them. Ordering some bubble tea for the both of them, he looked at Cloe's expressions and then followed her gaze.

"Don't tell me you also want to enter and play in there."

Cloe cleared her throat and looked away hiding her thoughts.

Cui Xukun smiled at her reaction and said, "Cloe, that's for kids. Even if I want you to enter, they won't let you."

Cloe tsked at that, "That's called ageism!"

Cui Xukun pursed his lips but didn't comment. Cloe pulled out her phone and looked at the pictures she just clicked with the twins. She happily edited the pics and uploaded them on her moments. The very first person to comment was Soren!

Soren: What are you doing with my kids?

Cloe: Planning how to kidnap them.

Soren: You dare?!

Cloe: You really have no idea what I can dare to do!

Soren: Anyway, my princess is looking so adorable in that dress.

Cloe: Of course, she is. I chose it for her.

Cloe: By the way, you're on a date! Stop looking at your phone!

Soren: You don't have to remind me of that. Just take care of my kids. If anything happened, I'll kill you!

Cloe: We'll see about that.

Cloe was feeling smug and satisfied after this banter with Soren. It felt good!

All the way in Movie City, Hyson was busy shooting his scene diligently. Even though he had to shoot the same scene 8 times, he didn't complain at all. By now he understood that his director, Amiah Jade wasn't really targeting him. She was a professional director who had severe OCD. She had to have the perfect shots. Or she won't clear it and move on.

Hyson got used to it these days and only paid attention to seriously doing his part of the job.

"Ok, pass!" came Amiah's voice that made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. "Let's take a break for ten minutes and move on to the next scene!"

The next scene had nothing to do with Hyson, so he didn't get his makeup re-touched and went to sit down under the shade. Holding a hand-held fan, He Rou skipped over to his side.

"Yo! Why are you so quiet since yesterday?"

Hyson opened his eyes to look at her and shook his head, "I'm not quiet."

"Are you not sleeping well?" asked He Rou in concern.

"I'm fine," replied Hyson. "You're overthinking."

"I honestly don't think I'm overthinking but since you don't want to me continue this topic, I'll drop it." He Rou used to fan to blow at her face as she looked at the staff changing the set.

"By the way, don't you think you should pay less attention to me?" asked Hyson. "Everyone on the set is already keeping note of this. You should stop hanging around me."

"Why should I? I like being around you," said He Rou. "You aren't trying to create hype by associating with me. You're neither trying to flatter me. All in all, you're not pretentious at all. And trust me, it's hard to find a real person in this industry."

"Then why did you join this industry?" asked Hyson curiously. "You come from a very good background. I also learned that you majored in finance and had been helping your family business as well. Why take so much on your weak shoulders? Isn't it okay to have a piece of the cake? Why be greedy to have the whole cake to yourself?"

He Rou smiled at him meaningfully, "I joined this industry because I wanted to be an actress."

"That doesn't fool me," said Hyson straightforwardly. "You must have said this sentence so many times that it comes naturally to you but at the end of the day, it's a lie."

"How can you say it's a lie?"

"I'm very good at seeing through lies," he told her.

He Rou sighed out at his words and said, "It's the first time someone realized that I've been lying for years. But I've been telling this lie for so long that I thought it really was the truth. Who knew one day the person who would remind me that a lie is a lie would be you." She looked deeply at him, "Why are you so good at it?"

"You know my best friend doesn't really have a clear concept of emotions," he told her in a low voice that only they could hear. "I've spent hours studying human psychology and emotions with her. I have spent hours playing out different roles to make her understand certain human behaviors that she wasn't able to comprehend on her own. I guess that really left me with some skills."

"Wow! You must have spent quite some time and effort into this," she commented.

Hyson gave her a look, "A relationship always needs time and effort. And sometimes, even more patience. I have learned one thing in my life, patience is the real virtue. Even if it seems like it won't go anywhere, you'd be surprised by where this patience might take you."

He Rou thought of something and her eyes flashed with complex emotions. She couldn't help but agree with his words. Now that she thought about it, it seemed her patience also rewarded her. A reward she once didn't dare think of was now hers. So, to say that patience might bring you surprises was something she'd wholeheartedly agree with!

"Little Fai, I want to steal you!"
