Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1085  Meant To Be

One had to say that a lot was already going on in this engagement. However, it didn't concern Raelle and Xian at all. They were really in their own world on the stage.

Before Xiang Wai could lose the last shred of her patience she said, "How about we have this beautiful couple say a few words to each other?"

"This was not in the script," mentioned Mu Chenyan.

Xiang Weimin shook his head, "It seems Raelle and Xian ticked her off a little with their lack of interest in her."

"Pfft." Hyson laughed out loud. "I should feel bad for Major but I don't."

On the stage, Xiang Wai had no clue what her family was talking about as her eyes were on Raelle and Xian right now looking very innocent. As if she didn't just take the matters into her own hands and added a new item to the script. Even though she knew how much Raelle disliked troublesome things.

"Let's start with my little brother-in-law, Shui Xian," started Xiang Wai as she turned to Shui Xian. "Why don't you tell us a little about what you like about my sister?"

She offered the mic to Shui Xian who took 8t and then gave her a look before turning to look into Raelle's eyes. The look in his eyes became gentle once they looked into Raelle's eyes.

"What do I like about Raelle? That's easy. Everything. But the thing that really made me attracted to her was her unconventional way of speech."

Those who had business dealings with Raelle could actually understand what Shui Xian meant by Raelle's unconventional way of speech. After all, there was none of her business partners who didn't get attacked by her words at least once. That was a conservative number.

"She made me believe in love all over again," added Shui Xian. "She made me look at things differently and even changed my idea of love. So, as I said, I really like everything about her. There is nothing not to like."

In his opinion, if anyone thought there was something not to like about Raelle then it was a problem with that person. Raelle was perfect. She was perfection!

Xiang Wai smiled at him. She knew it'd be easy for Shui Xian. He was a romantic soul. She believed he could talk about Raelle for hours without getting tired. He was holding himself back a lot right now in front of these people. After all, he couldn't damage all of his image as the Master Xian known in the business world.

Although Xiang Wai believed that seeing his silly and lovestruck look towards Raelle was already enough to ruin his image in front of these people, of course, she won't say anything regarding that right now.

She turned to Raelle and smirked. Now, this was the real target she had in mind, "Little sister, what about you? What made you decide that you want to spend your whole life with him? What made you get on your one knee for him?"

Raelle took the mic from her and said, "His smile."

"Huh?" Xiang Wai was dumbfounded while Shui Xian had a knowing smile on his face.

"It was his smile that made me look at him at first but then slowly, he became a part of my life. Someone without whom, something seemed missing in my life. Everyone knows that I'm a little slow when it comes to emotions. So it took a little time to realize that somehow along the way, Xian became my definition of love. If he's the only definition of my love, why should I hesitate? All I had to do was get on my knee to propose. And I did."

Xiang Wai momentarily didn't know why but she was lost. You see this was the difference between her and Raelle. She thought too much while Raelle might be slow with feelings but she clearly knew what she wanted. And once she decided on what she wanted, she'd do anything to get that.

While she spent years trying to make sense of her own love, Raelle took action the moment she figured out her feelings. In a way, it seemed Raelle was the more courageous one between them. So what if she had faced death without hesitation plenty of times? She couldn't even face her feelings for the longest time.

"I hope you both stay in love for the decades to come," said Xiang Wai sincerely.

Tang Hebe actually had a relaxed smile on her face as she looked at the beautiful couple on the stage. Hearing their answers, she felt a bit bitter in her heart as she looked down on herself for not being as courageous as Raelle but at the same time, she was truly happy for the couple on the stage. She didn't think she loved Shui Xian any less but she had her own obsessions. Maybe her love was tinged with stubbornness and rebellion that she felt toward everyone who didn't want them to be together. Whether it was Shui Xian's mother or her own family.

But Raelle's love didn't have so many thoughts. She just loved Shui Xian. As she said, it was his smile that ensnared her and she decided to stay. And once you decide to stay, it's difficult not to fall for Shui Xian. She was more than familiar with what Shui Xian was.

He made it very easy for people to love him with his thoughtfulness, his sincerest emotions, his loyalty, his care, and his love. How could Raelle escape?

Tang Hebe didn't think anyone could escape when they meet a complete package like Shui Xian.

"Are you really that happy?"

Tang Hebe peeled her eyes away from the stage and looked at the person who came to sit beside her. She was a little surprised to see Amiah. But she instantly got over it. It was Shui Xian's engagement how could his sister not be there? Even if their relationship wasn't like before, she didn't think Shui Xian would forget his sister on such an important day of his.

"Hello, Amiah!" Greeted Tang Hebe. "And to answer your question, I am indeed very happy."

"How? And why?" Inquired Amiah curiously. It was a genuine curiosity. She had witnessed the burning passion that Tang Hebe and Shui Xian had for each other back then. They were like balls of fire, willing to burn everything in the way of their love. But now, one of them stood on the stage with another person and the other was here smiling so happily. She couldn't understand them at all.

"This is a happy occasion, I should be happy."

"But that's your ex-husband," Amiah pointed out.

"Do you know how many years it has been since we got divorced?" Asked Tang Hebe in return. "Why should I be hung up on our failed marriage? He has his life, I have my own. We both have the right to move on. And I really don't want to be known as Shui Xian's ex-wife for all my life and neither would he like to be called my ex-husband when his current wife is standing right with him"

"I didn't expect this response from you," said Amiah as she leaned back in her chair and contemplated the words that Tang Hebe just said. It seemed she was the only one who felt odd and was stuck in the past.

Everyone else had moved on in their lives. Whether it was Shui Xian or Tang Hebe or even her own father. They had all managed to accept the past and look beyond it. They were all living in the present while looking forward to a hopeful future.

It was only she who was still stuck in the past. She was really stuck in the past even now.

"You're not the only one," replied Tang Hebe. "When I told my friends from school and college that I'm attending Shui Xian's engagement party, they all thought I was gonna crash his engagement and make a scene. I really don't understand it. Do I look like a troublemaker? I might be insensible at times but I haven't lost my brain to the point of wanting to ruin Xian's big day. If I had any bad feelings regarding this engagement, I wouldn't have accepted Raelle's invitation."

"Raelle was the one who invited you?" Asked Amiah in surprise. "Why? Don't tell me she wanted to show off in front of you."

Tang Hebe shook her head at Amiah, "You really don't know her at all. Raelle isn't that petty even if she acts like it sometimes. Her heart is like a child's. Innocent, clean, and pure. She has no evil feelings for anyone in this world. Not even for the ones who hurt her." She had a sweet and heartfelt smile on her face when she talked about Raelle. It couldn't be helped. No matter how Raelle tried to provoke her, Tang Hebe actually understood Raelle's intentions very well. She actually had no hate or dislike towards her. It was just that Raelle had a problem with the fact that she hurt Xian back then. So she tried in her own ways to hurt Tang Hebe.

Tang Hebe didn't hold it against her either. After all, when Raelle did it, it showed how much Shui Xian meant to her. She wanted to avenge him even if he had gotten over that pain.

If anything she felt envious of this love. And she knew they both knew how to cherish the person they loved so they were the perfect match.

She didn't know why people were expecting her to cry or make a scene. Just because Shui Xian was moving on, she had to feel like he did something wrong. She didn't think so. Deep down, she still thought of Shui Xian as a very dear friend. After all, nothing could change the fact that they were childhood friends. This friendship couldn't possibly be forsaken.

"Don't always live in your own world and look at people with prejudice," said Tang Hebe to Amiah. "Sometimes you need to learn to see the world through others' eyes. It's a beautiful world. You might not understand it now but you will eventually."

"You have gotten good at talking," commented Amiah. "You know I thought you'd be the only sister-in-law of mine. I was only willing to accept you as my sister-in-law. I even told my mom about this."

Tang Hebe smiled bitterly at that. She didn't know what to say to this stubborn girl. Couldn't she see that Raelle and Xian were meant to be?
