Chapter 232 – Haven’t Looked Enough
The moment Raelle and Shui Xian came to see Hyson at the hospital, only silence greeted them in the room. Shui Xian was quite surprised to find that not only Hyson was awake but he was also exceptionally quiet.
Even he had figured out by now that Hyson wasn't really the quiet type. And that's why his current silence was making Shui Xian feel edgy.
"Opa!" Raelle called out.
Both Hyson and Grandfather Xiang looked up and glared at her before putting a finger on their lips telling her to, 'Shh!'
The only reaction to this treatment was Raelle shrugging her shoulders and pulling her husband to sit down in the corner. Shui Xian was still quite confused. Even more so now that even his wife was ignored by two people who can literally give their life for her.
But since the said wife had no reaction to it, he decided not to think about it either. But he still tugged at Raelle's sleeve and questioned, "What are they doing?"
All he could see was that Hyson and Grandfather Xiang had an iPad opened before them and their eyes were glued to the iPad screen. As for what was so damn interesting on it, he couldn't tell from his position.
Raelle closed the magazine that she had picked up and looked at Shui Xian, "Those two are watching ASMR videos." Shui Xian raised his brows at her and she went on, "Even more precisely, it'd be right to say that they are watching one of miniature cooking ASMR videos."
"Miniature cooking?" questioned Shui Xian oddly.
"Don't ask why they find it so interesting," said Raelle. "I won't be able to answer that either." She took a pause and added, "But I can tell you that it's all because of Hyson that Opa is also into this stuff. Hyson had always pulled Opa into doing these things in the name of trying to make Opa stay up to date with the changing times and technology."
Shui Xian's brows knitted as he said, "I just realized, Hyson has everyone wrapped around his fingers."
"You can say it's his special talent," agreed Raelle.
Only after the video finished did both Grandfather Xiang and Hyson paid attention to Raelle's presence.
"Opa, you should go home for some time. We'll be here with Hyson," said Raelle.
Grandfather Xiang hesitated as he looked at Hyson and then at Raelle.
"Stop pushing yourself," added Raelle, and Grandfather Xiang had to agree with her.
"Then stay with Yue Fai until I come back here. You're not allowed to leave before that," said Grandfather Xiang sternly.
"I won't," answered Raelle, reassuring her grandfather.
After Grandfather Xiang left, Hyson stared at the pair of husband and wife before saying, "So, how are you planning to entertain me today, Ellie?"
"Do I look like an entertainer?" asked Raelle.
Hyson shook his head, "Absolutely not."
"Then why are you expecting that I'll entertain you?"
Hyson's lips curled up slightly as he said knowingly, "You have a surprise for me."
"And how do you know that?" questioned Raelle.
"Isn't it obvious? On normal days, you love to give me gifts with lots of stupid excuses. Today I happen to be sick. There is no way, you don't have a get-well-soon gift for me."
Raelle stared at her for a minute before she walked out of the room and came back with a box in her hand covered with a cloth. She extended it towards him saying, "Your get-well-soon gift."
Hyson chuckled as he took it from her hand. He really had no way to even argue with this girl. Just as he had said, she really had a gift for him. And he was so used to it, that it couldn't even be considered a surprise now. As he said, Raelle loved giving gifts to others. How could he not get one when he is sick?
But he was curious to see what she got for him this time around. He lifted the cloth off and his mouth opened wide in surprise. Under the cloth was a metal cage and inside the cage were two little gorgeous fluffy white birds.
Hyson's eyes also went round as they sparkled at the sight of those birds. He looked up at Raelle and said, "You! Why are you like this?"
"I also don't know about that," answered Raelle in response to his question.
At this point, even Shui Xian could see what she got for him and he was also certainly surprised by this kind of gift. Not because she gave him birds as a gift but because he could recognize those birds as 'Shima Enaga.' The species of bird was native to Country J which meant she had gotten it from so far away just for him.
He also remembered when he first met Hyson for dinner, at that time, Hyson had asked Raelle to join him on a trip to Country J because he wanted to see these cute birds there. But instead of joining him on that trip, she brought the birds to him.
"They come in pair?" asked Hyson looking at Raelle.
She shook her head, "No, I got them in pair. What if a single one got depressed because of loneliness? So the other one is to give it company."
Hyson laughed at her answer as he continued to look at the birds before him. The all-white fluffy balls looked so adorable to him that he couldn't take his eyes off them. "They are just as cute as they were in the photos." Then he paused and questioned, "By the way, how did you smuggle them inside the hospital?"
"What do you mean by smuggling?" retorted Raelle. "I got these in an honest way."
Hyson sighed out in response to that, "Right. I shouldn't expect anything unethical from you. That'd be asking for too much from you."
"If you're gonna continue this criticism, I'm gonna take these back."
Hyson hurriedly hugged the cage tightly, "Don't you dare! I haven't even looked at them enough."
