Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 703 Beautiful Bride

"Mum," Hyson hugged his mother and acted spoiled. "You should really tell me. Am I really your son? Why do I feel like that Yanjun is your son instead of me?"

Yue Yue didn't even bother with his nonsense as she continued to thread the needle. But once she was done, she lifted her hand to ruffle his hair.

This silly son of hers was really too dramatic.

Everyone was willing to spoil him, but he still needed her spoiling? She didn't think so. He just purposely wanted to go against Zhai Yanjun. She couldn't even understand why.

She was mute, not blind. She could see everything that went on with her son. And she also knew that Hyson had long figured out how he was really connected to Zhai Yanjun. But since he hadn't pushed Zhai Yanjun out of his life, it showed that he actually was willing to have a brother.

She didn't know how to tell her son that there might never come a day when he'd have to face Zhai Yanjun as his brother. Because neither she'd say nor Hyson would, how would anyone find out?

"Ellie met your parents last night," said Hyson after he was done acting spoiled with his mother.

Yue Yue pricked her finger with the needle and blood came out. Hyson looked at her as she put her finger in her mouth.

"Are you that surprised?" he asked. "I don't think you should be. You know, you can't hide forever. Secrets never stay forever."

'This secret has to stay.'

Hyson looked at her hand signs and scoffed, "Why? Because you don't want to become a third party? Or you don't want your son to be called an illegitimate?"

'No one can dare call my son illegitimate. I won't let that happen. Chenyan won't let that happen as well. Even Elder Xiang and Raelle will never let anyone speak like that about you.'

"When you know I have so many people to protect me, why do you want to keep this secret forever?" he asked curiously.

Yue Yue looked hesitant before she told him, 'I don't care about anyone else, son. But I don't want him to despise me.'

Of course, Hyson understood who she was talking about. And that's why he couldn't help asking, "Mum, is love really worth it? Why do people go crazy for it?"

Yue Yue stroked his face, 'You won't understand even if I tell you.'

"I don't really want to understand either," he said. "If love really makes you lose yourself, then I'd rather not come across such a vicious thing called love."

Yue Yue pinched his cheek as she mouthed, 'Love is a very beautiful thing. Not a vicious one.'

Hyson shook his head, "No, you're wrong. Love is a double-edged sword. To some people, it's the elixir of life and to others, it's the deadliest poison. You said it's beautiful? But don't forget that every beautiful thing is hiding ugliness behind it. Just like behind every light is darkness you can't ignore!"

Yue Yue shook her head but didn't say anything to him about this. She had always known that her son's idea of love was not right. He might sound normal but deep down, he actually never thought that love was something worthy of his attention.

Even asexual people could fall in love and live like normal people. But the problem was, that her son wasn't willing to pay attention to anyone. He wasn't willing to fall into the trap of love and lose himself. He once said, he was crazy enough already if he really fell in love, he'd be a lost cause. So, it was better for him to keep his distance from the thing called love.

Earlier when he said everyone around him affected him and that's why he was single, she didn't really think he was speaking nonsense. It was true. From a young age, he was surrounded by broken couples or people like Mu Chenyan and her who never even married. So, in reality, all of them became a factor in his life. A big factor why he was so against falling in love. Because he didn't think anything good came out of this thing called love.

"Mum, can you stop running from your past?"

'I've already stopped running. Now, I'm not scared to face anyone.'

He eyed her suspiciously before sighing, "Well, you shouldn't be. I'm here to protect you. You aren't alone anyone. Also, you have a girlfriend like Yanyan. Say a word, she'll do anything for beauty."

Seeing him laughing and joking about this, she called him silly in her mind. Yes, her son was a bit silly. Nothing could be done about it now. Perhaps, she didn't manage to provide him with enough nutrition when he was in her womb. Or maybe she dropped him on his head when he was young. Something somewhere definitely went wrong for him to turn out to be so silly.

Hyson looked at the beautiful embroidery she had done on that red gown and asked, "Mum, is this for Ellie?"

Yue Yue nodded her head, 'This is my present for her wedding. She'll be the most beautiful bride.'

"Of course, she will be," he agreed immediately. "After all, my mum has been working for so long on her gown. But don't tire your eyes and hands so much. She won't like that."

'I know.'

He noticed her expression and asked, "You came back and picked up work instantly. Are you trying to tire yourself to avoid the sadness? If you want to cry again, go ahead. Unlike Ellie, I won't stop you."

Yue Yue dropped her needle and buried her face in her son's chest as she cried silently. She had been really using embroidery to stop herself from thinking about it but the sadness had already taken root in her heart. Why? Why did Raelle have to go through this?

How could she not feel pain for her? She understood Raelle more than anyone else. She almost Hyson back then, so how could she not know how much it hurt?

Hyson patted her shoulder as he whispered, "Cry as much as you want. But promise me not to cry again. Even if you look beautiful crying that doesn't mean I like seeing tears in your eyes."
