Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 914: So Many Questions

Chapter 914: So Many Questions

With a gentlemanly demeanor, Young Master Ru lifted his fingers from Raelle's delicate wrist and removed the handkerchief. While folding the handkerchief, he said, "Thankfully, you're not poisoned."         

    

With Raelle's keen senses, she noticed a detail. He said she wasn't poisoned. But he didn't say everything was okay. Maybe she was overthinking it which wasn't like it. However, this thought still remained in her mind.     

"You don't think I'm a swindler, do you?"      

Raelle moved her eyes away and said, "You can't blame me even if that's on my mind."     

Young Master Ru touched his face and muttered, "Am I losing my touch?" Shaking his head, he sat down before the flowering plant. Yes, sat down. He didn't crouch down but straight up, just sat down on the ground. Taking out gloves from his pocket, he checked the blooming flower carefully.     

Raelle's attention was captured by his every move. The person before her looked like a gentleman with a scholarly air. However, the way this person dealt with her security team definitely made her doubt that. Even now, she could see that the person was dealing with the flowering plant very delicately but the same gentleness was not seen when he dealt with people.     

"Did I injure it?" asked Raelle referring to the plant.     

Young Master Ru's lips curled up slightly at her choice of words. 'Injure...' he thought to himself and turned to look at Raelle once more. This time, even Raelle could feel that there was a strong compulsion in those green orbs. Those eyes were probing her soul right now.      

"This tough guy will survive," replied Young Master Ru casually before moving his eyes away from Raelle's face.     

"You... Young Master Ru!"     

Hearing that stuttering voice filled with fear, he looked at the person who ran over. The man lowered his head and accepted his mistake, "My apologies! I left without informing anyone. It's just that I... My stomach suddenly started hurting and I..."     

"Little Huzi," called out Young Master Ru. Even Raelle who was crouching beside Ru could tell that Ru's voice was laced with a pressure unseen. No matter how dull she was with such details, she could still notice the change in tone.     

"Yes, Young Master Ru!" replied the man who was addressed as Little Huzi shuddered as he replied.     

"Do you know what this young master hates?"     

"Excuses," replied Little Huzi.     

"And what are you trying to do right now?"     

"Trying to justify my dereliction of duty," he replied with a sense of shame and guilt. Biting his lip, he still said, "I'll go and get my punishment."     

Ru didn't stop him but noticing Raelle looking at him, he couldn't help asking, "What? Do you think I should be magnanimous and overlook this small mistake?"     

Raelle shook her head head honestly, "No, it wasn't a small mistake. If you hadn't come to stop me, I'd have touched that flower. That could have endangered my life. But even if by pure luck I could escape being poisoned, there is a chance that the plant could have been damaged. Considering you put your effort, time, and hard work into cultivating it, no one can say it was a small mistake for someone to leave this place unattended."     

The way Young Master Ru looked at Raelle took a subtle turn at this moment and his signature lop-sided grin spread on those thin lips. He took off his gloves and stood up from the ground as he patted off his clothes and went back to looking at a gentleman.     

"Your guys are free," he stated and Raelle looked over. Indeed, the bodyguards could move around now freely. And they all looked embarrassed but couldn't hide their hostility toward the person who put them in this situation.     

Raelle checked the time and it was precisely fifteen minutes now.      

"I saw you inside copying the scriptures," stated Raelle.     

"What about it?"     

"My husband said copying scriptures can help calm your heart," Raelle added. "So as someone who did copy scriptures, what's your take on that? Does it really calm your heart?"     

Young Master Ru shrugged, "You're asking the wrong person. My heart is naturally without ripples. I don't need to do anything to calm it down."         

    

"Your eyes were closed but you're able to write," added Raelle. "What do you have to say about that?"     

"You have so many questions? Are you sure you're supposed to ask this many questions to a stranger on your first meeting? I don't think that's how it should go," was Ru's response.     

"Is it difficult to answer?"     

Young Master Ru was left looking at this beautiful woman who had so many questions and answered, "Muscle memory. This young master has copied scriptures from a young age. Even my toes can write without looking at this point."     

Raelle looked down at his feet and only noticed that he had been barefoot all this time. Even if the temperature was dropping now, the ground was still hot because of the blazing sun that lingered during the day. But this person didn't seem to notice the heat at all.     

"Was that metaphorical?" asked Raelle to confirm. She wanted to believe it was metaphorical but the way the other person said it made her question it for some reason.     

Young Master Ru chuckled, "What if it's not metaphorical? Are you gonna ask me to show you how I write with my toes?"     

"Can you?" asked Raelle with her blank eyes staring back at her innocently.     

"Wow!" Young Master Ru touched his earlobe and cleared his throat. "You definitely have a lot of questions."     

"But you don't look annoyed by the questions though," Raelle pointed. "Rather, you look like you're enjoying it."     

Young Master Ru's eyes narrowed slightly and he didn't even deny her words. Of course, he wasn't annoyed by the question. If anything, he just stopped looking at Raelle as a married woman and started looking like a little curious kid instead. With that innocence in her eyes, it was hard for Young Master Ru to think of her as anything else.
