Master’s Untamed Wife

1051 Mystery Master 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Raelle already knew what kind of a person Mu Chenyan was and how efficiently she worked. So, she wasn’t surprised when Mu Chenyan dragged Xiang Weimin to inquire about everything. She waited and when Mu Chenyan came out, she asked her.

Since Xiang Weimin didn’t tell her how he was associated with Chi Xirui, she was certain Mu Chenyan would be able to get answers. So, she decided to just ask her Yanyan but who knew that even Mu Chenyan refused to share things with her and only said, “You don’t have to bother yourself with these things. I’ll handle everything from here.”

“Is this what they call to burn the bridge after crossing it?” Raelle said it out loud when she saw Mu Chenyan leaving.

“What do you mean, wife?”

Raelle looked at Shui Xian and told him, “I’m being left out.”

“Oh,” responded Shui Xian. He held her hand and smiled at her, “It’s okay. I’m here. I will never leave you out.”

“Forget it,” said Raelle. “By the way, I might have to acknowledge a nephew soon enough.”

“Huh?” Shui Xian was dumbfounded by this sudden revelation.

“We are about to become aunt and uncle,” commented Raelle. She suddenly thought of something and added, “But we are not the only ones.” She took out her phone and called someone. Shui Xian looked at her movements and when he noticed whom she was calling, he shook his head helplessly with a smile on his face. “Yo, bestie! Guess what? You’re about to become an uncle. Hyson, you’re old now.”

.....

Shui Xian had to stifle his laughter when heard Raelle provoking Hyson and the latter responding exactly as they envisioned it. It was like someone stepped on Hyson’s tail as he roared, “Who said that? I’m still a baby! How can I be an uncle? I refuse! I refuse! I refuse! Important things should be repeated three times! I refuse! This last one was to emphasize my refusal!”

“Your refusal is unimportant here,” commented Raelle.

Hyson calmed down and thought about it before frowning, “Ellie, you’re pregnant again?”

“No,” replied Raelle calmly.

“Then how can I become an uncle? There is still time in that,” Hyson patted his chest calming himself down.

“But your nephew is already old enough to buy soy sauce!”

“Huh?” Hyson was silent for a moment before asking, “Ellie, when did you have such a big child? Does Xian Ge know? You can’t just randomly take in a son. It’s unfair to Xian Ge.”

“What nonsense are you up to again?”

“I’m the one up to nonsense? I think it’s you!”

“I’m talking about our family’s lieutenant colonel Xiang Weimin! He might have a son!”

Hyson gasped and stood up in shock even dropping the script in his lap on to the floor. That’s how much of a shock it was to him.

“Are you sure? How is that possible? Isn’t he single? Why didn’t he talk about his son when I was there?”

“Now, that’s the interesting part,” said Raelle. “He’s clueless.”

Hyson burst out laughing, “You’re saying, he doesn’t even know he is a father? Oh my God! What kind of a lusy script did he pick up? This is so much drama! So, did the mother of the child showed up at the door with the kid and demanded him to take responsibility?” Hyson had already come up with a hundred plot scenarios in his mind and was amusing himself all on his own. “What did our Lieutenant look? He is a man of few words, he might not even know how to respond. Tsk. Tsk. Poor him!”

“You’re enjoying this way too much when it’s not even like that,” said Raelle and then told him everything.

Hyson suddenly cursed, “Damn! This is even more drama then I thought. But from dog blood, it turned into mystery! Wow!” He took a pause and asked, “You really didn’t find anything about that woman?”

“Nope.”

“Lietenant didn’t share what kind of a relationship he had with her?”

“Nope!”

“Aren’t you curious?”

“What’s the point?” asked Raelle. “I can’t find anything useful. Yanyan isn’t too willing to let me get involved in this either.”

Hyson’s eyes narrowed as he said, “But Yanyan isn’t the only one who can help you.”

“What do you mean?”

“Why are you slow at a time like this? If you’re giving me gossip, at least do the complete research before sharing. Now, I even have to help you solve the mystery. Wouldn’t that waste my braincells?”

“You should allow your braincells to exercise once in a while before they rust.”

Hyson wasn’t mad at her words at all, “Haha! Very funny! Now, hear me out genuis! Yanyan always said there is only one person who is better than her. And if he is better than her at everything. Do you really think he won’t be able to find out what Yanyan can find out?”

“You’re talking about Xia Zhao?” asked Raelle but she was certain he was talking about him.

“Of course! Go and find him!” said Hyson. “This whole matter of how that woman is involved with Xiang Weimin isn’t even your concern. Your matter is how she is associated with you and why she said you saved her when you have no memory of it. Use your resources well!”

Raelle also agreed with this. “Hmm... You’re right. Even Opa said a lot about Xia Zhao. I should look for him and see what he is capable of.”

“What do you think he is capable of?” asked Hyson. “You met him already. What impression do you have of him?”

“He is... Definitely capable of a lot,” answered Raelle.

“Then you have the answer right there,” said Hyson. “Now, go and solve the mystery. You should solve it before we see each other at the engagement party or I’ll keep feeling anxious!”

“Focus on work rather than on mysteries!”

“I was focused on work, it’s you who disturbed me! I’m hanging up now!”

“Scram!” said Raelle and hung up before he could. Then she looked at Shui Xian who was looking back at her in amusement and said, “Even though he rarely uses his brain, he definitely comes up with good plans.”

Shui Xian shook his head again, “I think you already had the same idea in mind. You just wanted someone to give you an excuse to follow it and Hyson seems to be the right person since he knows what you want.”
