Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 472 – Different Species

To be honest, Hyson had to agree that Cloe's words were not only thought-provoking but also very touching. It showed that she was a mature and sensible person. And she didn't just chase stars everywhere unnecessarily. In fact, he actually felt pleased with himself for managing to get a fan like her.

But he wasn't gonna make her feel complacent either. 

He stood in front of that glass counter as he looked at the rows of beautiful, colorful, and delicious-looking desserts. His mouth was watering at the sight. 

"Ge, I'm just 2 minutes away from you."

Originally, Hyson didn't pay attention to the person standing on his other side.

"I heard about the bakery and wanted to buy you a cake." She was silent as she listened to the other person speak before saying, "If you don't want to eat then don't. I'll eat it myself. There is no worry. I can always help you finish it off."

Hyson finally turned his head and looked at that face he saw before he entered the café. The only difference was that now she didn't wear her jacket over the tank top. But because of her tank top, he could see her strong arm muscles. 

"I'm suddenly jealous," came Cloe's voice from his side.

"Huh?"

"Look at her figure!" said Cloe. "She is so handsome!" Cloe gazed at the woman's short hair and sighed, "She gives off a heroic feeling."

"She is an army officer," said Hyson. "Stop ogling at her so blatantly."

Cloe looked at him weirdly, "How do you know?"

"I met her earlier," replied Hyson. "She was driving a military vehicle. Besides, just look at her. Doesn't she give off a different aura?"

Cloe nodded her head, "Indeed, a white-collar like me can't possibly match her aura."

Xiang Wai could actually feel their eyes stuck on her, because of her sensitive nerves. She even heard their voices. Her lips twitched and as she hung up the call, she looked at them, "Are you done admiring?"

"Yes, officer!" commented Cloe. "You look familiar though." Cloe frowned to herself. Where had she seen her before? When she looked at her face, she was certain she saw her somewhere before and recently as well. But where?

Just as she was about to unveil the truth, Hyson placed his hands on her shoulders and turned her towards the glass counter, "Cake! My cake is still pending!"

"Oh," responded Cloe and eagerly started browsing which one to buy. "I can't decide. They all look good."

"How about we buy all?"

Cloe stared at him, "What if we died from the sugar rush?" She shuddered at the thought, "That'd be an embarrassing way to die."

"Excuse me, I want that black forest and red velvet cake. Thank you!"

Cloe looked at Hyson, "You already decided?"

"No," answered Hyson. "Red Velvet is for Yanyan and mum. Black forest is for Opa and Uncle Shing."

"If you're taking everyone into account, how about getting one for Chief and her husband?"

"No," refused Hyson. "Don't wanna!"

"How stingy!"

Hyson snorted, "Why don't you buy one for her if you're so concerned for my best friend."

Cloe rubbed her nose, "Chief isn't all that fond of sweets."

"Exactly! And as for my dear brother-in-law, he already has enough load of sweetness."

"Oh, what is it?"

"My sweet sweet best friend." While saying that even he cringed at the thought of Raelle being sweet. Both he and Cloe shared a look before shuddering together. 

"It's good to know that you have conscious," said Cloe. She'd really faint if he had been able to call Raelle sweet with a straight face. Because she really couldn't even imagine it!

"Let's just buy cheesecake," suggested Hyson. "If we continued to think, we're never gonna come to a decision."

Cloe agreed, "True. Let's try cheesecake for today. If it's good, we'll continue to come to try the other flavors."

"Oh, that means my future cake delivery is confirmed?"

"So stingy?" Cloe said again. "I spent so much money on your albums and merchandise!"

"How much do you think of that money going into my pocket?" retorted Hyson in amusement. "As a shrewd businesswoman, you should really not be calling me out like this." As they waited for their cakes to be packaged, he turned to Cloe in asked, "So, how is your boyfriend?"

"Seems like a nice guy," replied Cloe. 

"I told you to have faith in the choice of your friend," said Hyson. "I'm sure Soren understood the situation well enough to suggest you go out with his brother-in-law."

"I feel like his brother-in-law is heavily influenced by him," commented Cloe.

"That's also good," said Hyson. "If Soren has some influence on him, then he is definitely a good guy."

Cloe was amused to hear that and told, "Master Xian seems to not like my boyfriend though. They seem to have some history."

"What? Tell me more!"

Cloe lifted her head and punched his arm, "Little friend, aren't you too eager for drama? What tell me more? I have no idea about the details?"

"If you don't have the juicy details, why did you throw crumbs at me? How disappointing!"

"You know Chief gave me dating advice today."

"Oh? Now, that's even more interesting. Go on…"

"She said if I'm uncertain about my boyfriend, I should try kissing him."

"You haven't kissed him yet?"

Cloe glared at him, "How many times do you think we have gone out together?"

"More than five times," replied Hyson. "Do you my Ellie? By the third meeting, she was already married! You're too slow!"

"Ha!" Cloe didn't know how to react. "I can't possibly compete with Chief. She is a different species altogether!"

Surprisingly, Xiang Wai had still been standing beside them as she also waited for the special order she made. And that's why she ended up listening to this conversation and she was thoroughly entertained.. She actually glanced at Hyson and Cloe once more to see who these two funny people were.
