Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 949 Keeping A Secret

But after watching their interaction closely once again, Xiang Wai realized something. Zhai Yanjun really loved Hyson. Even though, to him, Hyson was just the son of his aunt. But Zhai Yanjun truly loved this little brother and would always feel happy with him around. In fact, while chatting lately, he did bring up Hyson's name very often and mentioned their teasing and playful banters.         

   And now seeing up close, Xiang Wai realized that Hyson might speak like he's throwing thorns at you but in fact, all his words were indicating his care and worry towards Zhai Yanjun. Even though he was the younger one, he was more mature mentally and knew what he was doing. So, Hyson hadn't been playing around all this time. He always had a reason behind everything he did.     

It's not she didn't know he was the one who orchestrated the whole blind date for the sake of getting her and Zhai Yanjun to speak up about their true feelings. Whether he put so much effort into bringing them close was for Zhai Yanjun's sake or hers was clear to anyone. She knew it wasn't for her. He definitely was doing it for Zhai Yanjun's sake.     

She stared at Hyson for a very long time in silence.     

"Are flowers blooming on my face?" asked Hyson when he got tired of her intense gaze.     

"No," she replied. "But I just realized, your smile is prettier than flowers."     

"Huh?" Hyson was dumbfounded by that response. "If I didn't know any better, I'd have thought you're hitting on me right now."     

Xiang Wai chuckled, "Nah. I'm definitely not hitting on you."     

"I know," he replied and shook his head before leaving.      

Zhai Yanjun also said goodbye and left since he had to get back to the base. Slowly, everyone left the house and the crowded house slowly looked deserted. Xiang Wai also went to her room and took a shower to prepare for bed.      

After lying down on the bed, she tossed and turned for an hour without any sleep and sat up. She pulled her own head, "Ah! Mind, can't you forget that? Let's remove that memory!"      

However, her mind only became louder rather than going as silent as she wanted it to. If only deleting a part of your memory was that easy. She drank some water and paced around but nothing was helping.      

The fact that Hyson was Zhai Kuijun's son kept ringing in her mind.      

She didn't know how to process this. So, she opened the door and went out. Right across from her was Xiang Weimin's room, she stood at the door and hesitated before knocking on the door. She wasn't certain if he was still awake at this time or not. But she had to talk to someone.     

She didn't know if he was asleep or not, she just checked the time and it was 1 o'clock in the morning now. What was she doing to disturb her brother right now?     

But before she could turn around to leave, the door opened and Xiang Weimin appeared before her eyes.     

"Ge, did I wake you up?" asked Xiang Wai sheepishly.      

Xiang Weimin looked at her calmly before he stepped aside and gestured for her to come inside, "Come in."     

Xiang Wai pressed her lips together and walked in with her head lowered, "Sorry for disturbing you."     

"Just sit," said Xiang Weimin. "When did you become so formal with your Ge? Didn't you use to that your Ge is obliged to be at your service at any given time?"     

Xiang Wai hehe-ed at that because that's what she truly believed. As the elder brother, it was his job to be always there for her. How dare he find her burdensome?"     

"What's up?" asked Xiang Weimin as he closed his laptop and sat down with her. "Something on your mind? What's the secret that's keeping you awake?"     

"Ge, how do you know it's a secret?" asked Xiang Wai in surprise.     

"You're my sister," replied Xiang Weimin. "Even with bombs exploding beside you, you'll find a way to go to sleep. This current appearance of yours is exactly the same as when you learned your friend's girlfriend was cheating on him. You were restless wondering whether to tell your friend about this or not."     

Xiang Wai scratched her head, "I had really been like this." She took a deep breath and said, "But this time, it's worse. Ge, I feel so stifled. I don't know what to say. I heard something I wasn't supposed to. But now that I know, I don't know what to do with this information."     

"What did you hear?" asked Xiang Weimin curiously. He was genuinely curious about what could mess up his sister's mind so much.          

Xiang Wai looked at her brother. She obviously trusted him the most in the world and didn't feel like there was anything to hide from him. After all, this secret didn't effect him in any way.     

"I heard that Hyson's father is..."     

"Is Uncle Kuijun," Xiang Weimin completed her words for him since she was having so much difficulty saying them.     

"You know?" Xiang Wai was left gaping at him in shock and disbelief was written all over her face. "How do you know? Since when? Why didn't you say anything? Who told you?"     

"No one told me," said Xiang Weimin. "No one had to. It wasn't that difficult to read between the lines." He took a pause and added, "Dad also knows."     

"Does that mean...?"     

"No," Xiang Weimin shook his head. "Dad didn't tell uncle Kuijun. And I don't think he plans on doing that."     

Xiang Wai thought she'd be able to clear her thoughts after sharing things with her brother but she just realized how naive she was. Things just became messier after coming here. Now, she had a lot more on her mind. Argh! This was not what she came for! She was looking for peace! Why was this happening to her? What did she do wrong?
