Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 840 Allergic To Love?

　　Once Tang Hebe was gone with Justin, Gou Jinjin stood in front of Raelle to stop her from leaving. "Cousin, you're already here. Why don't you stay for a chat?"

　　Raelle looked at her husband and then back at Gou Jinjin. She knew there was no point in going back to her ward. All she had to do was lie down there. And she didn't want to do exactly that. So, she listened to Gou Jinjin and followed her inside the office with Shui Xian.

　　Raelle looked at the desk name plate in the office which indeed read, Deputy Director Gou Jinjin. She sat down on the couch and asked, "Aren't you a cardiothoracic surgeon? How did you enter the administration?"

　　Gou Jinjin was making tea for them when she heard Raelle's question. Her hand paused momentarily before she continued the work hand but she still answered Raelle, "Didn't you just say that my temper is similar to aunt Yan? You aren't wrong. I've been hearing it all my life that I'm most similar to my crazy aunt whom I adore by the way. And just like Aunt Yan, I was never suitable to be a doctor." She brought the tea and served it to Raelle and Shui Xian saying, "Besides, someone has to do the desk job in this family. If we are all doctors, the management might continue to shake the foundation of our hospitals."

　　She took a sip of her espresso and faced Shui Xian, "This must be our brother-in-law. Shui Xian, right?"

　　Shui Xian nodded his head, "That's right."

　　"Why are you looking at me like this?" asked Gou Jinjin.

　　"Oh, it's nothing. When I married my wife, I was told the Xiang family is very small. Only a handful of people. Now, my wife even has a cousin. I'm just trying to process it."

　　Gou Jinjin chuckled, "You must be thinking that we are accepting Raelle as our family just because the Xiang family had been taking care of Aunt Yan, but you're wrong. Technically, Raelle and I are indeed cousins."

　　Shui Xian raised his brow in surprise and that's when Raelle chimed in, "My grandmother and Yanyan's mother were sworn sisters."

　　Shui Xian had a look of realization.

　　"How are you feeling now, Cousin?" asked Gou Jinjin. "I'm sorry for not coming to see you earlier. I was out of town for the past month and only learned you're here this morning when I came to work." She tsked to herself, "Our family is really good at keeping secrets. I don't even know if anyone else is aware that you're here. Did anyone come to see you?"

　　"Nope," answered Raelle.

　　"That means I'm the first one to know," Gou Jinjin looked excited. "Anyway, even if they know, so what? Half of them have gone to work in remote areas as volunteering doctors. The others who can't delay their surgeries are buried in their work. I'm the only free person."

　　"Is it a competition?" asked Raelle.

　　Gou Jinjin nodded her head, "It is. You think meeting you is a joke or is it easy? You got famous at a young age and Aunt Yan always proudly showed off what a genius her Elle was. Of course, she alone was enough to piss off people because of how casually she always overshadowed others with her talent. We thought our generation will be free from that torture like our parents but it didn't work when you came into the picture. No, let me rephrase that, Aunt Yan even showed off your brother and sister's achievements. She never even did it when she was the top talent of her time."

　　"I didn't know Yanyan loves to brag," said Shui Xian.

　　"She doesn't do it in front of us, but she is a whole different person in front of other people," said Raelle. 

　　"I feel like I keep learning something new about Yanyan," commented Shui Xian.

　　"That's because Aunt is like a mystery box. She keeps giving you surprises," said Gou Jinjin. "I've looked up to her since I was young."

　　"You are only 2 years older than me," stated Raelle. "I don't think you've had that many interactions with Yanyan."

　　"So what? I have heard a lot about her," said Gou Jinjin. "By the way, she didn't come to see you?"

　　"Not today," answered Raelle. "I heard she is meeting an old friend today. So, she definitely won't come to see me."

　　Gou Jinjin's face fell, "Which old friend is it?"

　　"That's hard to say," was Raelle's reply. "After all, her friends' list is too long."

　　"Hmm..." Gou Jinjin hummed in response. "Right, it'd be difficult to narrow down to one person." She took a pause and added, "By the way, you didn't hold your wedding. How can you do that? You can't deprive your cousins of drinking your wedding wine."

　　"We'll hold a wedding soon," said Raelle.

　　Gou Jinjin nodded, "Okay. I'll wait. Before that, you come and drink the wedding wine of my twin sister next month. We invited you to other cousins' weddings but you had no time. But this time, you're here. So, you have to come with Aunt Yan."

　　"Your twin sister... Gou Jingjing?"

　　Gou Jinjin hummed in response as she drank her espresso leisurely. "I wonder what is wrong with Jingjing. She is two minutes younger than me but still wants to jump into the pit of marriage. What is so good about it? It'll take her some time to learn that all men are jerks!"

　　"Talk about your men, keep my man out of it," said Raelle making Shui Xian smile to himself.

　　Gou Jinjin looked at Raelle and then at Shui Xian. She looked confused as she asked Shui Xian, "What potion did you feed her?"

　　"Love potion," was Shui Xian's reply.

　　"Eehhh!" Gou Jinjin made a face at him. "Damn! What the hell is wrong with you people in love? Why do they keep coming to ruin my mood?"

　　"Baby, your cousin seems to be allergic to love," said Shui Xian to Raelle.

　　"I don't think so," answered Raelle and since she said so, Shui Xian would definitely believe his wife's words.
