Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 899: Not Scary

Gou Jinjin looked over to see Xiang Weimin and said, “Colonel, your sister has trust issues.”         

    

“She doesn’t have a good experience with ‘cousins’,” said Xiang Weimin.     

Gou Jinjin supported her face with her hand as she added, “It’s Lieutenant Colonel.”     

“For now,” she added. “You’ll get there soon. We have faith in you.”     

“This is our first time meeting.”     

Gou Jinjin gasped, “You don’t remember me?”     

Xiang Weimin stared at her and said, “My memory is not that bad. You’re the girl who killed my fish.”     

“It wasn’t me,” she defended herself. “It was my cat.”     

“You and your car shared the same temperament so I think you should take the blame for your cat,” said Xiang Weimin.     

“Wei Ge, we were kids,” said Gou Jinjin. “Is it okay for you to actually remember that? Even my poor kitty is no longer around. We shouldn’t speak ill of people who are gone.”     

“My condolences.”     

“She didn’t die,” replied Gou Jinjin. “She eloped with a neighborhood cat. So much for being faithful.”     

Xiang Weimin was left staring at her while she shrugged nonchalantly.     

“I thought I saw you at the medical camp a couple of years ago but now, I think it must be your twin sister.”     

“Oh my! You even remember that I have a twin sister? You have a good memory.”     

Xiang Weimin took a moment before asking her, “Aren’t you a doctor?”     

“I don’t practice anymore,” answered Gou Jinjin.     

“Why?” he asked.      

“I just don’t,” she replied without explaining anything and he stopped asking.     

“Justin, did you pack up everything?” Xiang Weimin called out to Justin whom he asked to pack his backpack so they could leave. Justin came over wearing his backpack and stood beside him. Xiang Weimin rubbed his head, “Oh, you’re all set.”     

Gou Jinjin’s eyes wandered from Xiang Weimin to Justin and narrowed slightly. Shaking her head, she said, “Wei Ge, thanks for the dessert.” Before he could say anything, she went on, “Is it okay to call you Wei Ge? When we were young, I called you Gege. It’d be weird if I did the same now. So, maybe Min Ge? Or Wei Ge is fine? Which one sounds better?”     

“Jinjin,” Xiang Weimin called out. “Call me whatever you want.”     

“Oh,” she responded. “Oh right, how is my aunt? Raelle said she had been busy that’s why I haven’t gone to visit her.”     

“She does seem busy,” said Xiang Weimin. “She has started a clothing brand and the stores opening have her hand full these days.”     

“How much more money does she want?”     

“I don’t think she is doing it for money,” was his response. “Take care of yourself. And don’t wait for so long. You can just come over after work whenever you want. I don’t think Aunt Yan would mind.”         

    

Gou Jinjin nodded her head and waved her hand at Justin, “Bye, little man!”     

Justin hid behind Xiang Weimin making Gou Jinjin not know whether to laugh or cry. “Damn! I really didn’t think I was that scary.”      

Even Xiang Weimin smiled to see the reaction of Justin. He thought he was a lot scarier than Gou Jinjin and even Gou Jinjin held the same opinion as she said, “Little man, don’t you think this uncle is scarier? I’m only a paper tiger compared to him.” Xiang Weimin raised his brow at her and she added, “What? Am I wrong? I’m not the one who has seen real blood like you.”     

Xiang Weimin couldn’t argue with that.      

Justin pursed his small lips before he slipped his hand into Xiang Weimin’s and said, “Not scary.”     

Gou Jinjin was in disbelief while Xiang Weimin was pleasantly surprised as well.      

“Wei Ge, you’re good,” commented Gou Jinjin and sighed heavily. “By the way, you’re also a patient of our hospital, how are you recovering? Do you have anything to say about your attending doctor?”     

“I’m doing fine,” replied Xiang Weimin.      

“I really missed out on a lot while I was away from the hospital. I’d have taken better care of you,” said Gou Jinjin.     

“I don’t trust you,” said Xiang Weimin. “I really don’t.”     

Gou Jinjin looked at him, “I’m not that same little girl.”     

“I still don’t trust you,” was his response before he waved at her and took Justin out.     

“I can’t believe this. But I can’t even blame him. Even my own sister doesn’t trust me,” Gou Jinjin muttered to herself and shook her head. She didn’t think she left such a lasting impression on Xiang Weimin when they were young.      

They grew up in different cities so it wasn’t like they saw each other very much but still she was able to leave a mark on her cousin’s memory. She should be commended for this!     

Xiang Weimin silently walked with Justin and while he was focused on everything around him, Justin was focused on Xiang Weimin. He seemed too tall to the small kid who couldn’t even reach his waist. Even his hand was too small in those big hands. No one could tell what was running through his tiny brain right now.     

“Is this it?” asked Xiang Weimin as he stood before the VIP ward.     

Justin nodded his head.     

Xiang Weimin knocked on the door and a middle-aged woman opened the door. “Young Master,” the woman called out.     

Justin didn’t walk toward her. He was looking up at Xiang Weimin and finally let his hand go.     

Xiang Weimin found his expression very amusing. “My sister, Raelle asked me to bring him here. Now, that I have escorted him safely, I should leave.” He touched Justin’s head, “Bye, little buddy!”     

Nanny Mi looked at the man before her and the way Justin looked at that man as well. She thought it was already surprising to see Justin interacting with Raelle but who knew she’d b getting more surprises?     

“Miss had a headache so she went to sleep. Or else, she’d come to thank you in person,” said Nanny Mi.     

“Oh, there is no need for that,” said Xiang Weimin. “I didn’t even do anything.”      

He smiled warmly and Justin before turning to leave. Justin was left staring at his retreating back until his figure disappeared from his vision. And his mood actually fell almost instantly.
