Master’s Untamed Wife

Chapter 151 - Selfish Love



Chapter 151 – Selfish Love

Shui Xian had waited until Ruan Meilin left his office. He didn't care whether she believed his words or not, it didn't matter. He had already made his stance clear. If the other person still had some ideas, he could do nothing about it.

Now that the third wheeler was gone, he focused his attention on the phone that looked like his own but definitely wasn't his. He was rather surprised to find out that since this morning, Raelle had not even received a single phone call. But then again, barely five or so people even knew her number. 

Raelle's phone was just as blank as her heart. There were only two photos that she had clicked on the day they registered their marriage. One was a photo of their hands and the other was a photo of them as newlyweds. And he had seen that while setting the new lock screen photo for her, he had actually joked, "Wife, say, is your heart just like your phone?"

She didn't understand his meaning as she asked back, "Like what?"

"Only have you and me in it?" Shui Xian had smirked at her playfully. "Since your phone only has our photo together, I think your heart is also like that."

  Raelle had blinked at him innocently, "But the phone has a storage space that my heart doesn't have."

Shui Xian shook his head at her, "But your brain has a storage space, no?" Raelle nodded her head agreeably. "Then can you keep us in your memory… Together?"

Raelle knocked her forehead with his as she had said, "I can doubt anything in life except for my memory. Trust me when I say I don't forget anything. The memory of us will always be preserved in my mind."

Shui Xian let out an artificial sigh, "I suddenly have a wish. I wish you love me as you love yourself."

"I love myself?" questioned Raelle. "No one ever told me that before."

Shui Xian brushed the tip of her nose with his own as he looked into her eyes and said, "Today, let me tell you. It doesn't matter what you think about love but at the end of the day, the person you love is yourself." Raelle naturally leaned her forehead against his as she continued to hold his gaze. "You're selfish when it comes to yourself. You'd do anything you think is right. You're not selfish in a bad way, it's more like your way of loving yourself."

"The world has enough selfless women," replied Raelle. "Some of us needs to learn how to be selfish."

Shui Xian smiled at her, "I agree." He kissed her cheek as he said, "It's actually a part of your beauty. It makes you real." Then he kissed her other cheek and went on, "Besides I heard the journey of love begins from oneself. You can hate the world but a person should always know how to love himself." He wrapped his arms around her tightly as he wanted to add, "I don't mind you learning to love me selfishly. I might actually be looking forward to your selfish love." However, he decided not to do so. 

Coming back to the present, he shook his head and clicked on his own contact detail, and waited for his wife to pick up.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Raelle dropped the pile of files on Cloe's hands saying, "I've already highlighted the things you need to work on again. Now, you can go back to your own seat." And before Cloe could turn to leave, she added, "And don't sit outside my office with the secretarial staff. The company has provided you with a huge office."

"I get lonely there," replied Cloe with a smile.

"Are you sure it's not because you can't find another person to badmouth your boss in your office?" 

Cloe kept her lips sealed. No matter what she said, Raelle would find a way to turn it against her. That's why they say, silence is GOLDEN! She'll use this weapon of silence to dodge this double-edged sword named, President Raelle.

Now that Raelle was done with the work at hand, she took the phone that had been placed aside and decided to call her husband to let him know that their phones had been exchanged. However, before she could make the call, she ended up receiving the call from the person whom she was about to call herself.

However, she didn't attend the call immediately. No, it wasn't because she wanted Shui Xian to wait. It was because of the contact picture that flashed on the display screen. Cloe had just bent down to pick up the last file from the table when her eyes also caught sight of the photo.

Although she had decided to keep her silence, she still couldn't help saying in awe, "Chief, from the moment I first met you, I thought you're the most beautiful woman I've ever come across. And that's saying something considering I'm a woman myself. But this…"

Raelle didn't say anything to Cloe in reply. She was silently staring at the picture that she didn't even know about. The girl in the photo was definitely herself, then how come she found it so unfamiliar? 

That gentle look in her eyes as she caressed the rose before her with sunlight as her halo. She never knew she could have such a gentle look in her eyes. Didn't her eyes always look exactly the same? Then why this photo gave her such a different feel?

"The beauty is in the eye of the beholder," commented Cloe. "A photographer can always find the beauty through his viewfinder that ordinary people can't see."

"Out!" There was only one word that came out of Raelle's mouth as she stared at Cloe.

Cloe hurriedly rushed out of the room. The phone had stopped ringing but only for a couple of seconds before it rang again. This time, Raelle didn't pause before attending the call. 

And just as the call connected, she could hear Shui Xian's mischievous voice, "Wife, I thought you'd steal my heart, why did you steal my phone instead?"
