Master's Untamed Wife

"Wife, I thought you said no work at home," said Shui Xian as he walked towards his wife.

Currently, the family of three was gathered inside the sitting area which was like an extended building with three glass walls overlooking the beautiful garden. And because of the rain, today the scene from here looked beautiful and calming.

While Shui Koshing was reading a book, Raelle was looking through some data while Shui Xian had just come back after instructing the kitchen staff about what to cook in this weather. Even now, he was holding a plate of snacks as he sat down beside his wife with his one arm draped over her shoulder.

He brought one over to her mouth, "Try some."

Raelle parted her lips and took a bite before telling him, "I'm not working. I'm just helping someone."

"Helping someone is different than working?" inquired Shui Xian with amusement dancing in his eyes.

Raelle nodded her head, "It's not my work. So, isn't it different?"

Shui Xian shook his head at her and leaned his head against hers as he asked, "So, what are you helping with?"

Raelle showed him the data on her iPad and the documents on her side as she explained to him, "Cloe recently learned about how high profiting the entertainment circle is. Someone has given her a few proposals to invest in movies. She isn't able to decide which one to choose. So, she asked me for a suggestion."

"Oh," responded Shui Xian.

"Is our Raelle quite familiar with the investment in movies?" inquired Shui Koshing.

"No," replied Raelle honestly. "I have never been interested in this field."

"Then how are you gonna help her?" asked Shui Xian.

"With my accurate judgment," replied Raelle. "My calculations never go wrong. That's why they call me the investment monster." She took a pause and went on, "Besides, just because I have no experience in this field, doesn't mean I can't make an accurate judgment. As I just researched, a blockbuster movie depends on several factors. A good story, a good actor, and a good director are not enough. Every single person plays a role in the success of the movie even if that person is a lighting assistant. It's just any other business, every single employee matters."

"Our Raelle is absolutely right," said Shui Koshing. "I believe in you, daughter."

Raelle offered him a small smile before she looked at her husband and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything? Do you disagree with me?"

Shui Xian shook his head before he dropped his head on her shoulder and said, "How can I disagree? Don't you know it's a crime to disagree with your wife?" He pinched her nose as he went on, "Especially when the wife is Raelle Xiang. As for why I'm not saying anything, that's because I like listening to you. So, you continue, I'm all ears."

Raelle stared at him for a moment in silence before she turned her attention back to the work she was doing. Meanwhile, Shui Xian continued to feed her the snacks with his own hands steadily. And since Raelle didn't refuse him, he also didn't stop.

"Hubby, won't you offer some to Bà?"

Shui Xian's hand paused as he moved his eyes towards his father. Shui Koshing lifted his eyes up from the book in his hand and looked at his daughter-in-law as he said, "Indeed, it's always daughters who care about their fathers. Sons are like debts of past lives. Extremely thankless!" He pretended to wipe his non-existent tears as he went on, "Even my son has forgotten all about me."

Shui Xian gave his father a look. "Bà, can you blame me?" Shui Koshing raised his brows at his son who went on, "With such a beautiful wife, only an idiot would want to pay attention to anything else."

Shui Koshing's lips twitched at his son's shameless remark but he couldn't even refute those words. So, he could only sigh inwardly.

"Son, lately, you've been talking a lot," remarked Shui Koshing.

"Isn't that a good thing?" retorted Shui Xian.

"It is," replied Shui Koshing with happiness shining in his eyes. How could he be not happy about this progress? He was more than happy.

"Have some," finally Shui Xian offered some snacks to his father as well. "Before you put the label of being unfilial on my head."

Shui Koshing glared at his son before taking a spring roll from the plate with the chopsticks.

"Bà, didn't you say Yanjun's grandparents are gonna come today?" inquired Shui Xian as he recalled the reason why his father had asked them to stay at home over the weekend.

Shui Koshing's brows knitted slightly, "That's what I was told. Maybe they can't come because of the rain." He took a brief pause before adding, "But if they weren't coming, they'd have informed me beforehand. So, perhaps, they'd be coming a little later." He looked at his son and inquired, "Why? Do you want to go out?"

Shui Xian shrugged his shoulders, "Where can we go in this weather? I don't even want to get out of my bed in this kind of weather."

"Then what are you doing here? Go back to your bed."

"Tell my wife to go back with me. I'll be lonely without her."

"If you want to go, go by yourself," said Shui Koshing with slight unhappiness. "My daughter is here to accompany me. I won't ask her to be lazy as you."

Shui Xian tutted at his father saying, "You really have chosen your side."

"I always choose the winning side," replied Shui Koshing as he gave his son a look which clearly told Shui Xian that even his father could see how he was the losing party in this marriage. Shui Xian didn't even feel wrong for being looked down on by his own father since even he knew between his wife and him, he was definitely the one losing right now.

After all, it was him whose feelings were all over the place because of his wife. And the said wife looked too unperturbed. What a tragedy!
