Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1257  [Bonus chapter] It Came From You

Shui Xian smiled at her innocently which made Mu Chenyan tsked at him and snatch the drink from him to gulp it down. She opened the cap and chugged down the drink along with the ice cubes which crushed with her teeth noisily.

Shui Xian almost felt like she was chewing down on his bones. Scary! So scary!

After taking a deep breath, she looked at him calmly, "Aren't you scared of me? Still came to stop me when I looked so angry?"

Shui Xian still smiled at her and didn't lie, "I'm of course scared. But so what? My fear won't stop me from following my wife's orders. She told me to not let you get into any violence so I just had to do that."

"I could have punched you."

"It's okay. I'd have taken it."

Mu Chenyan shook her head at him.

"I just learned where Raelle got her super possessiveness from," said Shui Xian. "I never knew it came from you. But earlier, I realized that you're the one who taught her that possessiveness."

"I only told her to never let anyone take what's hers."

"Thank you for that, I guess."

Mu Chenyan gave him a look, "You don't think it's too much to handle?"

"What?"

"Her possessiveness?"

"No, I don't mind," he replied. "It's not every day you'd see Raelle Xiang getting possessive about something. How can mind when it's a clear indication that I'm very special to her? In fact, the very first time she told someone not to touch me just because she doesn't like people touching what belongs to her, I felt a very strange feeling in my heart. Maybe because it never happened before. Yes, her possessiveness can be too much for others. But to me, it's just fine."

Mu Chenyan gave him a look, "My godmother always told me to hide my possessiveness because it could scare some people away. Not hide it. She meant to not overdo it. But I am either all in or nothing at all. Since I couldn't find a balance, I always kept it in."

"Then what made you let it show today?"

"I couldn't help it," said Mu Chenyan. "I'm telling you, that woman had always gotten on my nerves. She'd always run around him calling him Brother Zhao. He kept treating her as a little sister and I warned him to be careful. But even if he was careful, it didn't stop this delusional woman. I didn't think she was so annoying that she was still after him. Argh! Ruined my mood. Today doesn't seem to be my day."

"Every day is yours," said Shui Xian. "Don't think so much about this." He turned around and found Xia Zhao standing behind there, he didn't even know for how long he stood there. He gave him a nod and said, "Then I'll leave now. I have other things to do too. Yanyan, you should be prepared. Because Raelle will definitely come to see you tonight after work."

Mu Chenyan waved him off, "And whose fault is that?"

Shui Xian grinned and walked away cheekily.

Xia Zhao stood beside Mu Chenyan and looked at her in silence.

"What?" she asked. "Did I do something wrong?"

"No. I'm the one wrong. Sorry, you had to go through this," he said surprising her. "She is after me and it always annoys you. So, I'm the one at fault here. I'm also sorry for holding you back when you wanted to slap her. But I really couldn't let you use violence."

Mu Chenyan closed her eyes and sighed heavily. "Where did you go?"

"To ask Hao to take An Ran back home. I don't even know why he was with her."

"You really have no interest in your brother's life, eh?"

"I had minimum interests in life, don't you know that?"

"Right. Why else would you live such a minimalistic life, right?"

"Right," he nodded in agreement.

"But he is still your brother. I think he might hate me. Because his brother has more interest in me than him."

Xia Zhao smiled at that, "He doesn't dare to hate you. If anything, he'd trying to find ways to get close to you after this."

"Why?"

"Just so he can get close to me through you."

"Do I look that easy?"

"He doesn't know how difficult you are." He was silent for a moment before asking, "Did my mother ask you to not see me?"

Mu Chenyan paused and looked into his eyes, "She did."

"When?"

"When I was in Junior High School. She thought we were dating and she had a lot to say about that."

"You didn't say anything to her in response?"

"Why do you think she hates me so much? I made sure her blood boils whenever she hears my name."

Xia Zhao laughed at that and patted her head, "You did a good job."

Mu Chenyan rolled her eyes at him, "Should you be saying that as her son?"

"If she wants to be respected as a mother, she should act like a mother. Not like my dictator. That won't earn her any respect from me."

"You really hold grudges."

"I think I learned it from you."

"Stop putting everything on my head."

"Got it, Ma'am!" He held out his hand towards her, "Should we finish your shopping?"

"I don't want to anymore."

"Aren't you letting the villain by doing this? If you don't finish it today, it'll fall on tomorrow which will make your already short time, shorter. How can you squeeze out the time for yourself then, eh? We should get the things done today. Then I have to take you for the meal I promised."

"That meal better be good," said Mu Chenyan. "Or I'll be really mad. I am very easy to set off like fireworks today."

"I can tell," he said. "I'll make sure that the meal satisfies you and makes you happy. For now, come, I'll buy you some cake to make you happy."

"I want tiramisu."

"I know."
