Master’s Untamed Wife

Chapter 1221 Social Gatherings



Chapter 1221 Social Gatherings

Of course, Raelle wasn't that forgetful. She remembered having this discussion with Shui Xian. It seemed even if she said something casually, her husband did have a habit of taking everything seriously.

"Is it considered a destination wedding?"

"Wow! You know about destination weddings too?"

"Yanyan, I'm not an idiot. Why do I even have to repeat myself here? Of course, I know about this."

Grandfather Xiang chuckled as he said, "Chenyan, you're forgetting something. Raelle does know about destination weddings. Remember, Director James had a destination wedding and Raelle was invited. Even though Raelle didn't attend the wedding, she did learn about destination weddings from there."

"Ah! How did I forget that?" Mu Chenyan facepalmed. How could she forget that? Usually, Raelle would filter out unimportant matters and that's why her knowledge of weddings was very low. But once she came across something, she obviously won't forget. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈

"You guys are really taking me too lightly lately," commented Raelle.

Shui Xian patted her head, "Don't worry. I always take you seriously."

"Right. But you just take me way too seriously."

Shui Xian grinned in response to that remark.

"By the way, when are you asking me to be your bridesmaid?" asked Xiang Wai.

"Who are you?" asked Raelle in return.

Xiang Wai gritted her teeth, "You really aren't gonna ask?"

"I didn't think about it. And I think we have had this discussion," said Raelle. "Besides, it's a traditional wedding. No bridesmaid."

"Trend has changed now," said Xiang Wai.

"We should stick with old rules. Traditions are good."

"Don't make excuses with me. Just say you don't want me to be the bridesmaid. Don't worry, I won't mind. I might be a bit sad. But I really won't mind."

"Okay. Not asking then."

Xiang Wai clenched her chest, "You never miss, eh?"

"Never!"

Xiang Wai put her head on Zhai Yanjun's shoulder and cried, "Look! My own sister doesn't want me to be her bridesmaid."

"It's okay. We won't ask her to be your bridesmaid in the future too," said Zhai Yanjun.

Xiang Wai looked up at him, "How is that possible? I have to ask her!"

"She won't agree," said Zhai Yanjun very seriously.

"She dares!"

"I do dare," came Raelle's answer. "Don't ever doubt what I don't dare to do."

"Even if you dare to refuse, I dare to kidnap you too!"

"What kind of an argument is this?" asked Mu Chenyan. "Why are you even fighting about this?"

"My maid of honor is Yanyan," announced Raelle at this moment.

"Me?" asked Mu Chenyan incredulously. "Wait! Did you ask me?"

"Do you dare to refuse?" Raelle used Xiang Wai's words.

"I don't dare," Mu Chenyan waved her hands. "I'll be the maid of honor. It's my honor!"

"That sounds better."

"Who even pick a maid of honor like this?" asked Grandfather Xiang. "You all are showing a joke to Justin right now."

Everyone looked at Justin who was now sitting on Xiang Weimin's legs and they both were engrossed in the educational game that Xiang Weimin specifically got for Justin. They seemed to be not there even when they were in the room. No wonder, Xiang Weimin didn't say a word.

Anyway, even if he heard everything, Xiang Weimin wouldn't want to speak with his sisters. Picking a side would do him no good.

"I guess there is no need to worry about that," said Raelle.

"It seems so," replied Grandfather Xiang. "Anyway, you guys still stop behaving like this."

"You know, you can pick more bridesmaids. Maid of honor is one. And I wasn't after that too. A random bridesmaid spot can still be given to me, no?"

Everyone looked at Xiang Wai who was still stuck on this topic.

"Why do you want to be my bridesmaid?"

"Because I want to be there," answered Xiang Wai. "I wasn't there in your growing years. I didn't get to see anything. I wasn't a part of anything. Why can't I be a part of this too?"

Raelle looked at her with some complication in her eyes. She took a deep breath and said, "You submit the application. I'll call you for an interview and we'll see if you get to be selected as the bridesmaid."

Shui Xian pursed his lips when he heard that while Xiang Wai looked confused.

"I have to write an application? What should I write in it?"

"Write about what makes you different. Have you never written a resume for a job?"

"No," Xiang Wai shook her head.

"Why are you so useless?"

"Can't help it? Before I even graduated from the Military Academy, I was the most popular candidate! Never had to write any resume!"

Raelle gave her a look, "If you don't know then learn it. You still have to submit an application. Or else, I won't consider you."

"Okay, I'll learn. Relax! I'll learn. I'll definitely learn. I promise! You wait for me. What's the deadline?"

"Tomorrow!"

"What? Isn't that too soon?"

"Why? One should know how to work under pressure. How do you think people survive in the corporate world? It's all about meeting deadlines."

"Your wife is persistent," said Zhai Yanjun to Shui Xian.

"She is already giving your girlfriend a chance," replied Shui Xian. "What else do you want? Have you ever seen Raelle Xiang going back on her words? She is willing to take a step back right now. You should be content with that. Besides, your girlfriend seems too happy to have this chance, no?"

Zhai Yanjun sighed, "Why do you think I'm not speaking here? I actually understand why Raelle doesn't want Wai to be her bridesmaid and I also understand Wai's stubbornness right now. I don't think I can blame either. Both have their valid reasons which we can't possibly question because we are just people on the sidelines. They are the ones who have been through their own trial and tribulations in life and only they can understand what they went through."

Shui Xian gave him a strange look, "Is it just me or you're getting smarter? No, it might be a fluke this time. I refuse to believe that you're wiser now."

"Can you stop looking down on me?"

"When did I do it? If I looked down on you, I'd have left you alone in all these years. But have I ever done that? No! I stood by you even when I wanted to beat you for your stupid life choices."

"Right back at you!"

So, it was finally decided that Xiang Wai will submit her application to Raelle who will call her for an interview after review and only after that, we'll decide if Xiang Wai will be Raelle's bridesmaid or not. No one would have ever heard of this method of choosing a bridesmaid. But when it was associated with Raelle, it didn't seem all that shocking either. It was very normal if Raelle was the one doing something like this.

"Only I'll be going through this process?" asked Xiang Wai tentatively.

"Don't worry. Raelle is always very fair in life," said Raelle. "The other candidates will have to go through the same process."

Yes, Raelle was so fair that others had to suffer through this too with Xiang Wai. However, the others only include Cloe. There was no one else on Raelle's list of candidates. She wasn't that close to anyone else.

So, if Xiang Wai hadn't started this argument. Cloe would have been selected without any problem but now, the process was longer for Cloe too. If she knew it, she might have given Xiang Wai a resentful glance. Like who wanted to even have an interview with Raelle Xiang? Wasn't that asking for trouble?

"Are we done here? Can we leave now?" asked Raelle.

"Where are you going? It's a little over 9 o'clock. Do you have to go home that early?"

"I meant can I go out for a walk. We just had dinner. Why are we sitting here like old ancestors? We need to walk a little to digest everything. Don't you think so?"

Shui Xian hurriedly stood up and held her arm, "Let's go, Wifey! We'll go out for a walk."

Walking them leave, Mu Chenyan looked at Grandfather Xiang, "She actually used an excuse to leave because she thought we were talking too much, right?"

Grandfather Xiang rubbed his nose, "I think she got tired of your long list of things she had to do. Give her space and let her really breathe in fresh air or she'll really get heated after knowing that she had so much to do for the wedding. Don't rush her or else, you never know. What if she chose to run away?"

"Raelle doesn't run from anything."

"Except for social gatherings," he reminded.

"Right. I'll take it slow then. I'm going out too. I heard there is a back garden here which is gorgeously decorated with fairylights. I'm gonna see it." She looked at Xia Zhao who was still sitting and said, "Why are you sitting? Am I going alone?"
