Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 373 - Shoot My Heart

Zhai Yanjun was happily walking back to his unit when Xiang Wai blocked his way. He took a step to the right to avoid and she followed to block him. He took a step left and she again followed suit.

"What?"

Seeing his exasperated look, Xiang Wai was unbothered, "That girl... How do you know her?"

"What does that have to do with you?" Zhai Yanjun shot back.

"I am asking nicely," said Xiang Wai. "Can't you answer like a nice person?"

"Guess what?" Zhai Yanjun stepped closer to her and shouted, "I am not a nice person anymore!"

Xiang Wai rubbed her ear as she glared at him, "Did you lose your brain screws somewhere?"

"Why? Are you gonna offer me yours?"

Xiang Wai raised her brows at him, "What has gotten into you? I have only been gone for a year, why do you look like an entirely different person?"

"I have no obligation to answer you," said Zhai Yanjun.

"You're really not gonna answer my question?"

"No," was his firm response.

"Captain Zhai, you're actually going against your superior?"

Zhai Yanjun rolled his eyes, "Even though I'm a rank lower than you, that doesn't mean you can order me around. You're in Special Forces. Stay away from my squadron!"

As he was about to walk away, she held his arm and asked, "Who is that man beside her?"

"Her husband!"

"What? Husband?" repeated Xiang Wai. "Isn't she too young to be married?"

"No," replied Zhai Yanjun. "It's you and I who are too old to get married."

"Talk about yourself," she said. "I'm definitely not old."

"We are the same age," he reminded her.

"Still, I'm not old," she was still insisting on her point.

"Good luck being young then," he said with a fake smile and walked away.

Xiang Wai was left alone looking at the back of Raelle leaving with Shui Xian. "She is already married. What a surprise!" Earlier, she had felt a deja vu feeling when she looked at Raelle's eyes but she didn't dwell on that feeling. Now that she thought back, she understood why she felt that deja vu. "She has the same eyes as dad and Ge. How surprising!"

On the other hand, Raelle got into Shui Xian's car while she let Cloe drive Anna and Caleb back. As she was about to wear her seatbelt, her arm was held by Shui Xian as he pulled her and hug her tightly.

"What's up?" Raelle asked.

"Nothing, I just wanted to hug you," he answered.

"You've been doing it since this morning," said Raelle.

"So what? I am just looking for some hugs from my wife, is something wrong with that?"

"I didn't say that." She patted his back gently and added, "Anyway, thank you!"

"There is no need for thanks in our relationship," he told her. "You're my wife. It's my responsibility to protect you. Don't be so formal now."

"I know that," said Raelle. "Do you think I said thank you for your help? No way! That's what you're supposed to do as my husband. There was nothing out of the ordinary about what you did."

Shui Xian pulled back a little and looked at her face while nodding, "Indeed, I did nothing out of the ordinary." He caressed her face as he asked, "Then what's that thank you for?"

"Thanks for coming here," she told him. "I wasn't expecting that. But it felt good to see you there."

Shui Xian tapped her nose saying, "That was also nothing out of the ordinary. I should always be there for my wife."

Raelle settled down on her seat and fastened the seatbelt as she told him, "From this incident, I have come to realize something."

"Oh, what is that?"

"It's that I'm not alone," she answered. "If I ever need help, there are people who are willing to offer me a hand."

Shui Xian stretched his hand to rub her head as he said, "I don't know about the rest, but I'm always here."

Raelle hummed in reply.

"Shall we go home now?"

"Home?" Raelle looked at the time. "It's still working hours though."

"You still want to go back to work after all that fiasco?" questioned Shui Xian.

"Time is money, let's cash it a little while we can," she responded. "Now, drop me off at the office and go to work. There is no need to take this incident so seriously."

"Baby, can you please take something seriously in life?"

"Don't I take you seriously?" retorted Raelle. "Isn't that enough?"

Shui Xian was lost for words because of her words. What the hell? How come he felt like her flirting skills were upgrading? When did it happen? How did it happen? And why was he so weak against it?

"Did you eat anything?" asked Shui Xian. "How about we have something to eat first?"

"Don't stall for time," said Raelle. "It won't change the ending."

Shui Xian tsked at that, "What a shame!"

"If you continued to act like this, I'm gonna feel like I'm one of those seductress concubines from the Imperial Harem who made the Emperor forget about the morning court."

Shui Xian burst out laughing, "I think it should be the other way around. You be the Empress and I'm the male concubine trying to seduce you to stay in bed all day and indulge me."

"Oh, how pitiful," said Raelle blandly.

Shui Xian parked the car outside her office building and pinched her nose, "You're really my Empress and I really want you to forget about the world for me."

"It's a pity but my memory is too good," responded Raelle. "I can't forget about the world. But..." She kissed his lips and whispered against his lips, "I can definitely do something about indulging you."

As Raelle opened the door of the car to leave, Shui Xian placed his hand over his heart as he said, "Don't shoot my heart!" He rolled down the windowpane and called out, "Raelle!" She turned her head to look at him, he placed two fingers on his lips and gave her a flying kiss as he shouted, "I love you!"

"Go away already!" responded Raelle before walking inside the office building without looking back at him.
