Master's Untamed Wife

When everyone entered the house, Shui Koshing first went to greet the elders. "Uncle Yang, didn't you promise to come over to my place? How did you end up here?"

Zhai Feiyang looked at his late best friend's son and smiled gently, "Since Tianyu is your neighbor, I thought it'd be better to have everyone here together."

"Excuses!" muttered Shui Koshing but didn't continue this topic and turned to greet Grandmother Zhai.

Since the time his own father died, his father's best friends, Xiang Tianyu and Zhai Feiyang had taken the place of his father in his life. And that's why he was really comfortable with these two elders who always made him feel like family. When he was young, he found their discussion too profound but now, surprisingly, he loved listening to these two elders who had seen the world and had a deeper understanding of worldly affairs.

As for Grandmother Zhai, her attention was instantly caught by Raelle. She couldn't help leaning over his husband to whisper, "She looks even better in person."

Grandfather Zhai gave her a nod as he replied, "She had inherited the best features of her father."

Grandmother Zhai looked at Raelle carefully, "But why do I feel like she has inherited the best features of her grandmother instead?"

"Elle..." Grandfather Xiang called out and Raelle walked over to his side in an unhurried manner. "Wow! My granddaughter is glowing right now." He glanced at Shui Xian and went on, "Looks like our family's son-in-law is taking good care of you."

Raelle didn't forget to add in for her husband, "Yes, he does." She took Grandfather Xiang's hand to place on her head as she told him, "He rubs my head as you do. It seems different but it feels good. He always puts food on my bowl as Yanyan did. He always waits for me and even gets up early to give me company on a morning run..."

Grandfather Xiang's eyes were gentle as he continued to listen to his granddaughter showering praises over her husband. But since she was the one saying it, there was no one who could say she was trying to make Grandfather Xiang happy or Shui Xian happy. 

"Yu, your granddaughter is flattering her own husband," said Grandfather Zhai jokingly.

Grandfather Xiang looked at his best friend, "Our Raelle doesn't know how to flatter people. If she is the one willing to praise Xian, that means our family's son-in-law is certainly deserving of that praise. There is no lie in what she said."

Shui Xian lowered his head, not knowing how to react. But he could only go up and take his wife back into his arms as he whispered to her, "Stop talking, wifey! I might get arrogant with how much you're praising me around here."

Raelle blinked at him softly before saying, "You can get arrogant. It's alright. Your wife is Raelle Xiang. I can definitely afford to have an arrogant husband."

Only Hyson could hear their conversation since he was standing the closest to them and while Shui Xian's lips were twitching because of her remark, he couldn't stop himself from laughing out loud. 

He clutched his stomach and almost fell on the ground at how much he was unable to control his laughter.

Raelle looked at him strangely and voiced out, "Earlier he said, I chose the wrong husband. Now, I think I chose the wrong best friend."

"Pfft!" Shui Xian covered his mouth to hide his laughter.

Meanwhile, Hyson glared at her, "Xian Ge is certainly the true gem in your life at the moment."

"You have any doubt?" retorted Raelle leaving Hyson with no way to refute her words. "Don't forget that my Opa selected my husband for me. And my Opa has never chosen a second best for me. He always gave me the world best! So from the very beginning, there was doubt that my husband is the best."

"Ellie, look outside! The rain is beautiful!"

Raelle tilted her head slightly as she looked out the window and inquired, "What is beautiful about rain?" She really didn't know why he abruptly changed the topic but she still replied in her own way.

Hyson patted his chest and calmed himself down. "Oh, thank God! You're still my Ellie. For a second, I thought someone possessed your body." He stood in front of Raelle and looked into her eyes saying, "Ellie, don't talk sweetly again. It scares me. I'm too used to the you who believes that music isn't that deep and rain isn't that beautiful. Let's not change that."

Shui Xian frowned at Hyson, "Stop telling her this nonsense. Isn't it good if she changes a little?"

Hyson shook his head hurriedly, "No, she can't! If she changed, my belief in life will shake. Isn't it enough that she made me question those beliefs already?" Then he turned to Grandfather Xiang and asked, "Tianyu, I thought we are here for a barbecue! Where is it?"

Grandfather Xiang shook his head at Hyson, "It's outside in the pavilion. Everything is already arranged. Let's go out together."

"That's the best thing I've heard today," announced Hyson as he skipped his way outside. The first ones to follow him were Shui Xian and Raelle. 

As they were walking, Shui Xian looked at his wife with a complicated gaze and asked, "Wife, am I really amazing or I just seem amazing to you?"

"You don't believe my words?" inquired Raelle.

"That's the thing. I can't seem to question your words," was Shui Xian's response. He really couldn't question anything she said because he knew she wholeheartedly spoke the truth without concealing anything. But the things she said about him made him feel like he was truly awesome and even he didn't know that. 

He could only sigh inwardly as he thought about how the world seemed like a whole different place in his wife's eyes. Raelle saw the world differently. So, perhaps, she was looking at him differently as well.
