Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 637 A Better Job

Raelle was actually thinking about why she even bothered bringing Cloe with her. Clearly, this woman's head was not in place at all. However, she still had to say, "Pay attention to important things. Stop focusing on gossip. They both have nothing to do with us."

"Aiyo, Chief! One of them wants to steal your husband!" said Cloe. She looked enraged as she added, "And she even used bad words for you. I can't take it lying down. I so wanted to stand up and break the plate on her head. Who does she think she is? How dare she tried to fight with you for something that is obviously yours?"

"First of all, Xian is my husband. Not a thing or a field that she can take from me. And even if he was a field, I'm still the landlady. That field belongs to me and only I get to plow it."

Cloe spurted when she heard that.

"What? Did I say something wrong?"

Cloe stared at Raelle's face and couldn't say whether there was something wrong with what she said or not. But it definitely sounded suggestive in her dirty mind even though she believed that it was meant to be completely innocent in Raelle's mind. Yes! How can her Chief have such dirty thoughts? No, that's definitely her!

Raelle didn't wait for her answer as she added, "Secondly, do you think that Ruan Meilin can be my rival?"

"Does she deserves that? She doesn't even have what it takes to stand beside you. How can she be your rival?" Cloe didn't hold back her thoughts or words at all. It could be seen how obviously disgusted she was by that woman already. "But Chief, how did you know I was talking about Ruan Meilin?"

Cloe was baffled as she realized that she didn't mention which one was trying to snatch her husband but Raelle already knew. After all, if it was her, she'd have locked on Tang Hebe as the first candidate.

"Because Tang Hebe has moved on," was Raelle's answer.

"How are you so certain? She said it herself that she is still in love with Shui Xian," Cloe told Raelle honestly. However, she obviously omitted what Tang Hebe added after that sentence.

"Yes, she is," said Raelle. "However, her goal of life has changed."

Cloe was gaping at Raelle, "Chief, just how the hell do you even know all this?"

"I had a brief discussion with her," was the only explanation she gave to Cloe. But this much was enough as a reminder to Cloe that she should never doubt Raelle's ability to see through people.

....

Song Xin'ai was tired of greeting people and went to look for a resting area. She had just stepped in and only found one other person sitting inside the resting room. As her eyes locked on the person who was already there, she paused in her steps.

Xiang Hulin was holding a cigarette in between his fingers but he hadn't lit it up. He continued to just stare at it while rubbing his temples with his other hand.

"Is it the headache again?"

Xiang Hulin looked up and found his ex-wife standing not far from him. He wasn't even surprised to see her here. She was more than qualified to be invited to this place on her own merit. And adding on the fact that she was friends with Mrs. Chen, it was even more certain that he'd be seeing her here. So, he was truly not surprised to see her.

"Just the usual," he answered calmly. "Nothing I can't handle."

"Of course, you can," she said in a strange tone. "You've always been strong. You can obviously handle everything."

"I don't know about everything but I've learned to handle pain very well," was his response. There was an inexplicable emotion in the depth of his eyes when he said that but his face remained impassive.

"How come you're here?" she asked.

"Committee meeting," he answered. "And since I'm already in the city for that meeting, I have to attend this dinner. If not anything else, I have to give Minister Chen some face."

"Oh... I thought you came to see your father," she said in a soft voice.

Xiang Hulin crushed the cigarette in his hand when he heard that. "Since I'm here, I'll definitely go to see him."

"Is he still not talking to you?"

"It doesn't matter. He is my father. I'll continue to try no matter how many times he shuns me."

Song Xin'ai couldn't bring herself to say anything else regarding this topic. She often had nothing to say to him when it came to the topic of their families. There was nothing to talk about her family and it was painful to talk about his. Either way, it was better to avoid this topic altogether.

"Did you already know?" she asked.

"About what?"

"About Raelle and her boyfriend?"

Xiang Hulin stared at her, "Are you sure you want to talk about her?"

Song Xin'ai bit her lip but didn't say anything in response.

"But I'll still let you know, she doesn't have a boyfriend. That's her husband. She is already married."

"Huh?" Song Xin'ai was surprised to hear that information.

"Why are you surprised? Just because Weimin and Wai hate marriage doesn't mean she is the same as well. In a way, we are the reason why Weimin and Wai are single at this age. As for Raelle, she is raised by my father and my sister. And I believe Chenchen has done the best job in raising her." He took a pause and added softly, "At least, she has done a much better job than both of us combined."

Song Xin'ai wanted to say something but couldn't bring herself to do so. Because she knew she couldn't argue with that statement. Even if she didn't meet Raelle, she was certain that Mu Chenyan must have done a better job at raising her daughter than she could have.
