Master's Untamed Wife

Since it was the weekend, Hyson was lazing around in his bed. Rolling from one end to another. From the head of the bed to the foot of the bed. The blanket was wrapped around him like he was human sushi. Only his fluffy hair was visible. 

Although he was awake, he was too lazy to get out of bed. In fact, every day was like a weekend to him these days but still, today was different. It was like his brain knew that it was Saturday and because of this information, his body was unwilling to cooperate. 

Besides, he had some things on his mind that made him feel even more drained out. As for what he had in mind, it was complicated. There was so much that he wasn't certain exactly what he was supposed to do. The thinking was really not his thing. It burned out his mind. And he didn't like this feeling.

"Fai!"

Hyson heard Mu Chenyan calling her and replied back in a loud voice, "Yes!"

"Get up already," said Mu Chenyan. "Don't you have plans with Xian today?"

Hyson's body was like it got electrocuted as he jerked up. It was only now his brain slowly remembered that he really had plans with Shui Xian today. As for where they were going or what they were doing, he had no idea. Neither was he that curious regarding that information. 

As he tried to rush down the bed, the human sushi got tangled up and he ended up kissing the floor. Hearing the loud bang, Mu Chenyan and Yue Yue came rushing in. When they saw how he was sprawled on the floor, they both shared a look before they burst out laughing. 

Hyson crawled up from the floor and gave these two pretty ladies an intense look. For some reason, the blanket around him was being stubborn by not falling off. He jumped like a bunny and came over to Mu Chenyan saying, "Help me first. You can laugh later."

Mu Chenyan nodded her head and freed him from the claws of this stubborn blanket. Hyson finally breathed a sigh of relief when he managed to get out. 

"Fai, it wasn't even the first time this happened," reminded Mu Chenyan. "How come you always get yourself into these situations?"

Hyson raked his fingers through his hair saying, "Perhaps that's what my talent is." He draped his arms around both these ladies' shoulders and said, "How about you both help me in choosing what to wear?"

'Just wear whatever,' was his mother's response.

"Mum, how can you say it so casually?"

'It's not like you're going on a date,' reminded Yue Yue.

"It is a date!"

Yue Yue slapped the back of his neck, 'You're going out with your brother-in-law.'

"That means I'm going on a date with my brother-in-law," replied Hyson. "Besides, we even have a third wheeler on this date."

Mu Chenyan chuckled at him, "I didn't know Elle is a third wheeler."

Yue Yue pinched his ear as she said, 'More like you're the third wheeler on their date.'

"Mum, whose side are you on?" asked Hyson. "Xian Ge said he is taking me out. Ellie is just a plus one because he doesn't want her to feel lonely."

'You're getting ahead of yourself just because Xian values you,' said Yue Yue.

"Not everyone has value, mum," argued Hyson. "That means that's also a talent." Shaking his head, he looked at them and added, "Now, please, help me out."

Mu Chenyan rubbed his head, "Our Fai is so handsome. He'd even make a sack look like a fashion statement."

"Are you saying I should wear a sack?"

Mu Chenyan laughed at him, "No, silly!"

With this ladies' help, Hyson chose the outfit for the day. It was nothing too flashy but it was fashionable. It went perfectly well with his image. 

At the breakfast table, he was the only one eating since the rest already had their breakfast. Only he was the one dragging his time lazing around on the bed for too long. 

"Opa, want to eat some?" offered Hyson.

"You enjoy yourself," said Grandfather Xiang. "I already had breakfast."

"But I feel too lonely," said Hyson.

'Who told you to wake up so late?' 

Hyson looked at his mother, "Why do I feel like you have something against me today?"

'You're overthinking.'

"I hope so," answered Hyson. 

"Where are you guys going?" inquired Grandfather Xiang as he read the newspaper. 

"That is said to be a surprise for now," said Hyson. "I have no idea where we are going. But it really doesn't matter. I get to spend a whole day with my best friend and also my brother-in-law."

"That is so like you," commented Grandfather Xiang. "Anyway, you have fun."

"How can there be no fun when I'm around, Opa?"

"Well said." Grandfather Xiang took a pause and added, "While having fun, don't forget to take care of yourself. Don't get hurt."

"Hmm... I'll take care," answered Hyson.

"Elder Xiang, he isn't a kid," reminded Mu Chenyan. "You don't have to lecture him."

"It's not like you don't do it," Grandfather Xiang shot back. 

Mu Chenyan smiled sheepishly at him, "Well, I do but I don't plan on doing that today. He isn't going out alone. Xian will be there to take care of him and Elle."

Hyson looked up at her, "Yanyan, am I and Ellie so untrustworthy to you that you only feel reassured because of Xian Ge's presence?"

"You both are still like kids to us," answered Mu Chenyan. "I can only trust Xian since he is a bit more responsible than you two."

"I suddenly feel offended," muttered Hyson. "But I can't even argue.." He knew that whether it was him or Raelle, they really couldn't take care of themselves. But wasn't it actually the fault of these ladies who pampered them all the time? How else would he have turned out to be so useless when it came to life skills?
