Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 681 Come Over

Back in the hospital, everyone was still gathered around Raelle. She didn't think she needed all these people here, but apparently, her opinion wasn't counted today.

"Eat more," said Shui Xian as he put another spoonful of congee in front of her mouth. Raelle looked at him and then at the spoon he held before she opened her mouth and just ate silently.

She wanted to say no. But seeing how Shui Xian looked at her, she just couldn't do so. It wasn't every day that Raelle felt like doing something that went against her thoughts. But this was her husband, she was willing to give in to him. It's not like she'll lose a part of her flesh or anything.

Recalling something, Raelle looked at her siblings and said, "Are you both here to stare at me? What am I? A zoo animal?"

"Is that something you should say right now?" asked Xiang Wai. "We are obviously here because we're concerned about you."

"Thanks for your concern," said Raelle.

Xiang Wai felt speechless at her reaction. This girl!

"But you should go and share some concern with your father right now," added Raelle.

Both Xiang Weimin and Xiang Wai looked at her in surprise. "Dad? What about him?"

"So, you don't know he is here?" asked Raelle.

Xiang Wai looked at her brother who looked confused, "I know he is in the city. But are you saying he is at the hospital right now?"

"Yes," answered Raelle.

"Why?" the question came from Xiang Wai.

"How would I know?" was Raelle's response. "I just know he is on the same floor."

Xiang Wai ran out of the room to look for her father. She looked all around the floor and it didn't take her long to find her father. General Xiang wouldn't come alone to the hospital. So, seeing those soldiers dressed in casual clothes keeping watch outside a room, she knew he was inside.

"Open the door!" she said.

"Major!" the soldiers gave her a salute before opening the door for her. They didn't dare hesitate and allowed her to enter.

Inside the room, Xiang Hulin was still pacing around when Xiang Wai walked inside.

"Papa?"

Xiang Hulin was surprised to hear her voice and looked up. "Wai? What are you doing here?"

"That's my question," said Xiang Wai. "Are you not feeling well? Or did you get injured? Is it an old injury acting up again?"

Xiang Hulin smiled slightly when he heard her firing questions at him like this. Usually, she loved to act cool and unbothered but once she found out that he was hurt, she'll turn into a naggy woman. Really like her aunt!

"I'm fine," said Xiang Hulin in a gentle voice.

Xiang Wai gave him a suspicious look, clearly not believing him at all. How could she believe him? She might have not grown up with him, but she knew him. Whenever she'd come over to meet him, he'll always try to appear like he was fine. If she hadn't accidentally learned about how he had a habit of smiling at her even when he was bleeding, she'd really believed him.

Her feelings for her parents had always been complicated but that didn't mean she didn't care about them at all. It was just that perhaps it was in their blood, none of them really knew how to show their love.

"I'm really fine," insisted Xiang Hulin.

"Then why are you at the hospital?" she asked as she crossed her arms in front of her chest in an imposing manner.

"I..." He opened his mouth but couldn't continue his sentence.

That's when it clicked in Xiang Wai's mind. "Did you come for Raelle?"

Xiang Hulin nodded his head. "I heard about what happened. I couldn't do anything else so I came here. But I'm still very helpless. Because even if I'm here, I still can't do anything for her."

"She is fine," told Xiang Wai.

"I heard," said Xiang Hulin. He had come here straight from the banquet. And he knew about Raelle's condition. He even heard about her miscarriage which really broke him inside. But he knew he couldn't go over and hug her or tell her that he was there for her. He had been awake all night, he even learned the news that she woke up. But he didn't dare go over to see her.

However, he didn't dare to leave either. He couldn't bring himself to leave. At least, by staying here, he could feel like he was close to his daughter. But if he left, the distance between them will grow. Not like, the distance wasn't wide enough already.

So, even if he didn't know what he wanted, he still stayed here.

"Do you wanna see her?" asked Xiang Wai seeing his hesitation.

Xiang Hulin shook his head, "Your grandfather is there. I don't dare go over."

"Tsk. How can you be scared of Grandpa when you're already so old? And also, you're a General!"

"That doesn't change the fact that he is my father," said Xiang Hulin. "His status will always be higher than mine."

"Grandpa isn't that difficult of a person," said Xiang Wai. "In fact, he is actually very nice."

Xiang Hulin patted her head, "I know. He is a very nice person."

"Then why don't you go over and see him?" asked Xiang Wai.

"He doesn't want to see me," said Xiang Hulin.

*Knock! Knock!*

Adjutant Zhang walked in and told Xiang Hulin, "General, your father... I mean, Elder Xiang sent a message for you." Xiang Hulin's eyes widened in shock while Adjutant Zhang went on, "He asked you to come over."

Xiang Hulin was horrified and in disbelief once he heard that. His father actually called him? How long had it been? Ah! Years! No, decades!

But now that his father was calling him, he was actually feeling a little nervous. This nervousness was different from when he met Raelle. This time, he was truly scared.
