Master's Untamed Wife

Hyson suddenly laughed out. It wasn't the first time someone told him that he and Raelle had a similar core. His mother often told him the same thing that they both had such a strong bond because they both had a beautiful heart. They both had different personalities but the same kind of heart.

However, Hyson didn't think Shui Xian would notice it. And that too, on their very first meeting. But then again, he never thought he'd see Shui Xian as his best friend's husband as well.

"You're not wrong," began Hyson. "We both are indeed very innocent for this world. In fact, we can often come off as naive as well. But..." He took a pause as he looked right into Shui Xian's eyes as the smile vanished from his face and from his eyes as well. "That doesn't mean we are really naive." Shui Xian's eyes narrowed slightly as he went on, "We are just as treacherous as we are innocent."

Shui Xian had to agree with that statement, "I have noticed."

Hyson was taken aback a little as he frowned, "You noticed? How?"

Shui Xian took a deep breath as he looked at Raelle who was still talking over the phone and said, "You both don't even realize how your innocent words manage to cut someone's heart deeply. So, I must say that if you can hurt someone so badly, unintentionally. Then people should be scared of the time you both would want to intentionally hurt them."

Hyson had a proud smile bloom up on his face. He had always liked Shui Xian as a person, and now he was thrilled to know that his admiration wasn't placed on the wrong person.

"What are you looking so proud for?"

Hyson tilted his head to look at Raelle who came back right when the food was served. She placed her phone on the table and looked at both Hyson and Shui Xian.

"I'm suddenly proud to have Master Xian as my role model," stated Hyson without feeling embarrassed at all.

Shui Xian was surprised, "Wait! What? When did I become your role model?"

"You've been my role model since a long time ago," replied Hyson.

"You're an idol for millions of people," said Shui Xian. "You should look up to a better person. I didn't even get to the stage you are on. I failed to achieve my dream. And I failed in my first marriage as well. What's there to look up to?"

Raelle leaned her head towards Hyson as she asked, "Is he looking down on himself?"

"He seems to be," replied Hyson.

Raelle looked at Shui Xian and said, "You cannot do this. No one is allowed to look down on my husband. Even my husband is not allowed to do it."

Hyson chuckled at Raelle's words and added, "Listen to her. That's the safest route."

"As if you've ever listened to me," retorted Raelle.

Hyson grinned at her, "That's because I never liked the safe routes. I was always a daredevil!" Before Raelle could say anything, Hyson had turned Shui Xian as he said, "As for you, my role model. Just as she said, you're not allowed to look down on yourself. I know you wanted to be a music producer but had to give up your dream. But I also know that you acquired TC Music to make others' dreams come true. That doesn't seem like a failure to me."

Shui Xian was looking at the both of them speechlessly. He really didn't know what to say right now.

"As for your first marriage, allow my best friend to give you a life lesson."

Hyson picked up the spoon and brought it before Raelle's lips as if it was a mic. Raelle looked at her best friend who threw the pot on her head before she looked back at Shui Xian. "Marriages fail when love dies down. Loving someone who doesn't love you back is like hugging a cactus. The tighter you hold on, the more you get hurt. And in that case, only an idiot would want to bleed to death. One should let go when it's time to let go."

Shui Xian blinked at her in silence before he said, "I thought you don't believe in love."

"I have another example for you..."

Hyson placed a hand over her mouth as he looked at Shui Xian and said, "She is trying to use the words that you'd be able to resonate with. Let her do it! Why are you asking for a chemistry lesson? Do you really want her to start a lecture on the periodic table?"

While Shui Xian pursed his lips, Raelle tapped Hyson's hand that was still on her mouth. As he retracted his hand, she stared at him blankly, "You can relax. Yanyan strictly ordered me to refrain from any kind of chemistry lectures." She turned to Shui Xian and went on, "However if I do have to say in other words. It's actually simple. Sometimes even with the right syntax, you can't understand the context of a sentence. But oftentimes even the wrong semantic end up explaining everything."

Hyson facepalmed himself before saying, "Ellie, food is getting cold. Please, let's not continue."

"Okay," was how she responded and picked up her fork and knife.

Shui Xian was still staring at Raelle's face while the latter had already started eating her food without paying any attention to anyone. He didn't know how to feel about her words. Because her words made perfect sense to him. Just because two right people came together, it didn't mean they could make a perfect relationship as well. That'd be like a syntactical error that happened with him and his ex-wife.

As for the semantic error, that'd be his relationship with Raelle. They both didn't fit together. It seemed odd to no matter who would know that these two people who belonged to two separate worlds had actually married. However, even if it seemed odd, this relationship made perfect sense now.
