Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 451: I Intend To Do So

Shui Xian was feeling like a whole new world was right before his eyes as his eyes sparkled at Raelle. He found a new way to explore his wife that made him so excited.

“Hubby, are you that excited about seeing your wife tear up?”

Shui Xian felt like she just threw a bucket of cold water on his excitement. How did he forget that?

He held her hand and shook his head trying to explain himself, “Baby, that’s not my intention. I definitely don’t want to see you cry. I’m not even that curious.”

“But you are curious,” pointed out Raelle.

Shui Xian laughed awkwardly, “Isn’t it because I never thought you’d be capable of shedding tears?”

“Huh? Why?” asked Raelle. “I am also human. Why can’t I tear up? Is it against the rules?”

Shui Xian shook his head at her, “No, that’s not what I meant. It’s just that since you don’t smile or express any other emotion, my mind didn’t even for a second think that you’d also tear up.”

“You don’t think it’s weird that I tear up when I’m drunk?” she questioned him.

“How is it weird? People do all sorts of things when they are drunk. How can your behavior be questioned? It isn’t even that big of a deal,” replied Shui Xian. “If anything, I think it’s actually good.”

“Good?” 

Shui Xian nodded in response, “Our body needs some cleansing. Crying helps out with that. Tears usually wash up a lot of things covering our hearts. Not only our heart but our body also feels light and easy.” He rubbed her head, “Besides, isn’t it good that at least your body is honest? Even if you’re not able to express how you feel in words, your body knows well.”

As he was rubbing her hand, he suddenly opened her palm and was startled to look at two red marks. It looked as if something tore through the skin. “What happened?”

Raelle also noticed it and said, “Oh, it seems Hyson used too much strength to hold my hand. So, his nails might have dug through the skin.”

Shui Xian touched her palm, “It must hurt.”

“This?” Although Raelle didn’t show any expression, he seemed to be able to read her thoughts. She seemed to be asking him whether he was an idiot? “Firstly, I can’t feel it. Second, even if I was able to, don’t you think this tiny thing couldn’t possibly hurt?”

Shui Xian knocked on her head, “Can’t I be worried?”

“You should stop worrying about such small matters,” said Raelle. “I’m not that fragile. If something really reached the limit of my forbearance, I’ll tear up.”

“Huh?” Shui Xian was taken aback when he heard that.

“You don’t really think that getting me drunk is the only way to make me cry, right?”

Actually, Shui Xian really thought it that way. He was suddenly ashamed of his own thoughts. It seemed he was the one with his narrow thinking. How could he possibly assume that she only cried when she was drunk? 

“So, there are other times when you tear up?”

Raelle nodded in reply, “I have. It’s just as Hyson said, getting me drunk is the simplest way though. But that really isn’t the only way. I do have a higher tolerance for pain than an average person. But that doesn’t mean my body doesn’t react to pain. Even if I don’t, my body would.”

Shui Xian’s brain unconsciously thought back to her kidnapping incident once again and he couldn’t help asking, “Just how high is your pain tolerance.” He couldn’t even imagine that she didn’t even cry when she bleed so much. So, he was truly curious now. If her pain tolerance was that high back then, what about now?

“You worry too much, Hubby,” commented Raelle as she turned to leave.

Shui Xian followed her and hugged her from behind, “I also didn’t know I was such a worrywart.”

“That means I made you learn something new about yourself?” questioned Raelle.

“It seems like it,” he replied.

“That means I’m quite useful,” said Raelle as she continued to walk but Shui Xian also didn’t stop hugging her. Even if it was difficult to walk this way, he still continued to hug her just like that.

“That you sure are,” he told her. 

“Why don’t you stop hugging me?” asked Raelle. “How am I supposed to walk?”

“Aren’t we walking just fine?” he retorted.

Raelle didn’t think they were walking just fine. It slowed down their pace as well.

“I won’t run,” said Raelle while patting his hands around her. “You can really let go.”

“I can’t seem to part from you,” he told her dramatically. “Even the distance of one finger hurts my heart. It’s unbearable.”

“The movie we watched didn’t have any such dialogue,” said Raelle. “So, where did you learn to say such sappy words?”

Shui Xian’s lips parted, “Oh? My wife knows that these are sappy words?”

“You wife is a good learner,” replied Raelle. “And I’m learning well these days.”

“Then keep it up,” encouraged Shui Xian. “I’d be even happier if you not only understood such sappy words but also started saying them.”

“Your interests are really weird,” said Raelle. “No wonder, you fell in love with me.”

“Sweetheart, did you just call yourself, weird?”

Raelle pulled open his arms and pushed him against the door of their room which they had finally reached with their slow pace. Placing her hand on the door, she looked into his eyes, “One should have self-awareness.” Then her face drew closer to him as her voice lowered, “Should we begin where we left off earlier?”

Shui Xian raised his brow at her and it suddenly clicked in his mind what she was talking about. His body instantly heated up while her lips brushed against his ever so slightly.

“How about going on a ride?” suggested Raelle.

“Fuck me!” Shui Xian let out the curse in a low voice.

“I intend to do so,” was her response that snapped his self-control.
