Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 696 Anniversary

Shui Xian entered the ward once again. And as Raelle had said, she followed behind him silently. In fact, right now it was even difficult to tell if she was there or not. She had made her presence seem so small. Usually, when she entered a room, she always commanded attention to the point that no one would dare look at anyone else but her.

But right now, you couldn't really tell if she was there or not.

Especially since her body was completely hidden behind Shui Xian. And the other reason why Tang Hebe didn't notice her was that her eyes were locked on Shui Xian.

"Ah-Xian!" Of course, Tang Hebe could see no one else but him. Hadn't it always been like that when they were young?

It even made Shui Xian feel like he went back to the past. Back then, all he saw in her eyes was his own reflection. He could easily see how passionately she loved him. But so what? Was that love even enough to support their marriage? It certainly didn't prove to be.

It was just as Raelle had once told him, love wasn't enough for a relationship to work. It was just a small part of it. A relationship had a lot more to offer. It's just that when you're young, you always feel like love will be enough for you.

Especially when it's your first love. It wasn't surprising that when it came to first love, people always had some unrealistic expectations. Sadly, they wouldn't always come true.

"What did the doctor say?" asked Tang Hebe.

Shui Xian didn't speak immediately. Raelle placed a hand on his back and he finally opened his mouth, "The doctor said you need plenty of rest."

"Ah-Xian, what happened to me?" asked Tang Hebe. "I clearly remember that I met the event planner and then... What happened after that? We talked about organizing the surprise for our fourth marriage anniversary, then I told her I'm leaving. I got to my car..." She held her head and winced, "It hurts."

Shui Xian's expression was ugly when he heard her words. 'Fourth anniversary?' Wasn't that the day she asked for the divorce? Surprise? It was really the surprise of his life! It was so surprising that he couldn't come too terms with it for a long time. It was a surprise that turned his whole world upside down.

Raelle felt Shui Xian's body trembling under her hand and slowly but gently stroked his back as if comforting him and reminding him that she was here. And this small gesture was actually more than enough for Shui Xian right now. Knowing she was standing with him was more than he could ask for.

Shui Xian unclenched his fists and sighed mentally. Right? What was he getting so worked up for? That happened so long ago. And now he had Raelle with him. Instead of thinking about such unhappy things, he should think about what else was left to organize for his wedding with Raelle? He had been planning everything silently without her knowledge. Of course, he had help from other people.

And it wasn't even like Raelle knew anything about it. None of them deliberately hid anything from her. She just didn't ask anything so they all collectively decided to pretend like it was still a surprise for her.

"You shouldn't try to think so much," said Shui Xian. "The doctor said you injured your head in the accident. It's better to not force yourself to think. You'll eventually recall everything."

Tang Hebe nodded her head and smiled at him sweetly, "You're right. I don't have to think. Since you're here, everything will be fine."

'As long as you're with me, everything will be fine,' her distant voice echoed in his mind and he forced himself to lock those memories once again. He didn't want to recall anything. At least not the things that once made him love her without any care in the world for anything. What was the point of loving someone so much when the same person didn't even hesitate to trample all over your love and pride?

She suddenly looked sad as she said, "But my whole surprise is ruined now. Ah-Xian, can you pretend like you know nothing about the surprise I planned for our anniversary?"

Pretend like he knew nothing? He once wished that he could even forget whatever actually happened. But he couldn't do so. He forgot everything, wouldn't he be also trampling and degrading the feelings that he once had for her?

"I told you, you shouldn't think about anything," said Shui Xian in a plain voice. "Your health is more important right now. So, you should pay attention to your health and get well soon."

"As always, you're still concerned about my health," commented Tang Hebe feeling sweet in her heart.

Shui Xian didn't comment. Tang Hebe was actually puzzled since she had never faced such a distant Shui Xian before. In her mind, he was the closest person in her life. And he was the sunshine in her life. He always had a bright smile on his face whenever he looked at her. He had never been this silent as well. He was a chatterbox who loved to joke around with her.

He loved to talk so much that even she'd get annoyed and tired but he'd still be buzzing like a bee in her ear.

However, now that same person was too quiet and there wasn't a hint of a smile on his face either. She found it unbelievable and a little uneasy as well. She didn't know why she suddenly felt a little scared. Her heart was aching as she looked at him and she felt like crying right now.

But why was she feeling this way?

Why was her heart hurting so much when she looked at him? What happened?

"Ah-Xian," she called out to him hesitantly. "What did the doctor really say? Is my life in danger? Is something really wrong with me? You don't have to hide anything from me."
