Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 894: Haste Makes Waste

Raelle looked at the talisman and picked it up. Holding it in her hands, she was actually reading the talisman carefully as if trying to solve some puzzle that was hidden in it. But in the end, she really couldn't understand it all.          

    

"So, this is a peace talisman," said Raelle. "I don't understand it." Even though she said that she still folded the talisman and put it in the pocket of her hospital clothes.      

From her words, they could already understand that she knew she was supposed to receive this talisman and she obviously knew who gave it to her as well.      

"Thank you for delivering this," said Raelle to Xiang Weimin.     

As they were eating, Raelle noticed that Justin had been looking at them very attentively. No, it was right to say that he first looked at Raelle and then would look at Xiang Wai and Xiang Weimin as if trying to figure out something.     

Raelle turned to him, "What mystery are you trying to solve, little man?"     

"Look like you," he replied in his milky voice.     

Raelle looked at her siblings before asking, "You mean they look like me? Are you sure?"      

He nodded his small head, "Positive!"     

"How?"

"Same eyes," he replied as he pointed at Xiang Weimin. And when he pointed at Xiang Wai, he said, "Same ears."     

Raelle could understand that Xiang Weimin looked like her, even Hyson said that their eyes were the same. But she didn't think she shared a physical similarity with Xiang Wai. So, she paused when she heard they had the same ears. Her eyes subconsciously moved to Xiang Wai's ears and then she looked at Justin.      

"We share the same blood," she told him. "That's why we have these small similarities."     

Justin's small mouth opened in the shape of an 'O'.      

"Raelle, who is he?" asked Xiang Wai again. "Little one, if you say we have these similarities then you also have that similarity with us. Your eyes are also just like my Ge and Raelle."     

Justin blinked his eyes at Xiang Wai.     

Xiang Wai lowered her voice and asked, "Raelle, is he..."     

"Not mine," repeated Raelle. "Why don't you think he is your Ge's?"     

Xiang Wai looked at Xiang Weimin and narrowed her eyes at him, "Ge, you're suspicious."     

"What? Where is that coming from?" asked Xiang Weimin.     

Xiang Wai shrugged, "I don't like this peace. So, just want to cause some trouble. Can't find anything else, so I thought maybe I should stir up something from nothing."     

"That is so like you," said Xiang Weimin. "But don't talk such nonsense before the kid. What if his parents heard it?"     

"Okay, okay," agreed Xiang Wai.     

Meanwhile, Raelle had gone silent from the moment Xiang Wai brought up this topic. She knew that strangers have similarities as well but the problem was that, Justin's background was already shrouded in mystery. Nothing was known about his father and his mother...     

Recalling something, she asked, "Do you both have a way to contact your... I mean, our mother?"     

Xiang Wai and Xiang Weimin were horrified when they heard that question coming from Raelle. Never in their wildest dreams, had they thought she'd one day ask for a way to contact their mother. This really caught them off guard.         

    

"What? What are you both looking at? Did I ask a difficult question? You can't contact your own mother?"     

"Raelle, you want to contact mom?" asked Xiang Weimin.     

"Yes," answered Raelle honestly.     

"Really?" asked Xiang Wai. "Why?"     

"Why?" repeated Raelle. "I believe she is my mother as well. Can't I contact her?"

"That's not what I meant," said Xiang Wai weakly. "I can give you her phone number. As for whether you'll be able to reach her or not is hard to say. When she is at the lab, she is completely cut off from the world."     

"You just need to give me her contact details," said Raelle. "I'll see the rest."     

"Okay," agreed Xiang Wai. She immediately sent her contact details to Raelle's number.      

Xiang Weimin looked at Raelle and asked, "Why are you looking for her? You did see her at the start of the week, no?"     

"I have something to ask her about," replied Raelle. "Don't worry, I won't hurt her."     

Xiang Weimin smiled, "I think you've done enough when you guys met the last time."     

"Are you sure? I was being very nice though," said Raelle.     

Xiang Weimin hummed, "Indeed. That's what she said as well. You're being very nice. After all, you're a very nice person." He took a brief pause and asked, "If it's urgent, you can tell me. I'll help you."     

"There is no need," replied Raelle. "I can wait. There is no hurry. Haste makes waste. I know the logic. So, I'll take it slow."     

Of course, these two didn't know the purpose but they were the reason she thought of contacting their mother. She heard from Tang Hebe that Chi Xirui was Song Xin'ai's student. So, she had to get to reach out to her mother if she wanted to know more about Chi Xirui, the woman who claimed she owed two lives to Raelle.      

For some reason, Raelle's eyes moved from Xiang Weimin to Justin casually and something in her mind was trying to click but she didn't delve into it. But she didn't ignore it completely as well.      

"Lieutenant," called Raelle. "Do you know anyone named Chi Xirui?"     

Xiang Weimin frowned and shook his head, "Doesn't ring a bell. Why? Do I have something to do with that person?"     

"Forget it. Since you don't know there is no need to think about it more," said Raelle. But Xiang Weiminn nodded his head and Raelle thought that it'd be easier if she had Chi Xirui's photo. That just reminded her, that it'd really be better if she had a photo. After all, just because she didn't know the name didn't mean she didn't see the person even in passing, right?     

People can change names easily but not faces.
