Master’s Untamed Wife

Chapter 414 – Cute Little Sister

"I know why you're scared," said Raelle. "It's the same thing with Zhai Yanjun. You were scared that his presence would change something in your life. And that thought alone was scary to you. Now, with this matter, you are again scared of the change this truth can bring to your life." She pulled him away and looked into his eyes, "But let me ask you when did start allowing other people to dictate the flow of your life? If you stay unbothered, no one can change anything."

Hyson gave her a self-deprecating smile as he said, "If he is really that man, do you know what that makes me? It really makes me a bastard son. That man is married to my mother's sister!"

Raelle pinched his ear and twisted it emotionlessly making him scream in pain.

"What the hell?! Are you trying to comfort me or kill me?"

"I was just trying to knock back your senses," replied Raelle. "Don't go around calling yourself an illegitimate child. So what of it? You're not some rare person in the world who is born out of wedlock. By calling yourself a bastard, you're looking down on yourself. And I won't take that lying down." Hyson's eyes reddened as he heard her words. "Besides, do you think you're in the worst condition than me? You're just a misbegotten child. I am a rejected one. Have you ever seen me looking down on myself for that?"

"Only a fool would reject you," he argued.

Raelle nodded to show that she agreed with those words. She pushed his hair away from his forehead as she said, "And only a fool would look down on you for being a fatherless child."

"I have actually never felt bad about being a fatherless child though," said Hyson. "But that man's identity is bothering me. I feel like going over to beat him up for hurting my mum."

"Easy there, kitten!"

Hyson glared at her, "Kitten? Seriously?"

"Well, you're acting like a kitten at the moment," she explained. "Ready to scratch someone to death. Oh, so scary!"

"Don't say things like that with that expressionless face," said Hyson feeling helpless. 

"Why? Is it scary?"

"No, it makes me want to laugh."

"Then laugh," she said. "Laughter suits you better than this look you're wearing right now."

Hyson laughed softly as he placed his head on her shoulder again and stated, "I actually had some good feelings for Zhai Yanjun."

"And now?"

"Now, it just gets complicated."

"Is it?" she asked. "Isn't it the same? Whether he is your cousin brother or half-brother, he is still a brother who seems to want to protect you. In fact, he looked like a fool yesterday running around you."

"Do you think it'd be the same if he learned about what kind of relationship we really have?"

Raelle contemplated for a while and nodded her head, "From what I saw, he doesn't seem like someone who'd distant himself from you just because of this so-called truth." 

"He really shouldn't hate me, right?" questioned Hyson. "I am pretty sure that my birth was just an accident. There is no way my mum would scheme against her own sister's husband even if she really loved him. She isn't that kind of a person. She just isn't!"

Raelle caught something from his words and rubbed his head saying, "My attention fairy, aren't you more scared of the fact that Yanjun might end up hating you after this truth come out?" Hyson's body stiffened as her words made him realize that as well. "You seem to like him already."

Hyson tsked as he said, "Why do I always get elder brothers in life? I already have Zhen Ge, Wen Ge, Yi Ge, Zi Hong Ge, and there is even Xian Ge now. Why did I have to find another Ge like Yanjun?" He looked heavenward and asked, "If you're offering me a sibling, couldn't you offer an elder sister instead?" He suddenly shook his head, "No, sorry! I forgot you already gave me the best elder sister in the world." He grinned at Raelle who was the only elder sister he was willing to accept. Even though she was only months older than him. "Then how about a cute little sister? Wouldn't that have been a better deal?"

"So, you want a cute little sister?" questioned Raelle. 

"I do," he told her honestly. "I have always been the youngest one. I feel bored of it. Now, I want a cute sister whom I could spoil." He shook his head helplessly, "I even forced mum to go out on a date in hopes that it will work out and eventually, I'll get my younger sister. But no! She just thinks I am enough. I even forced Yanyan but even she is not willing. What is wrong with these people?" He grumbled to himself for a long time until his eyes settled on Raelle and slowly narrowed with a crafty expression.

"Don't even think about it," warned Raelle.

Hyson sighed out, "You're right. Even if you gave birth to a little cute girl, she'll be my niece. That's different than having a little sister. Although I'd still spoil my niece, however, she won't be calling me Gege in her cute voice."

"Let me crack open your head and see which circuit is acting up again."

Hyson stuck his tongue out at her. Having a conversation with Raelle had eased up his mind. Even if there weren't many words spoken between them, they both understood each other. 

Whether it was Zhai Yanjun or Zhai Kuijun, both couldn't possibly disrupt his peaceful life as long as he didn't allow anyone to do so. As Raelle had said, Zhai Kuijun was at most a 'sperm donor', who had no right on him, to begin with. Why was he so confused about it earlier?

Even if he was scared of hurting his mother, she wasn't alone now. He was there to protect her. There was also Raelle, Yanyan, and even Grandfather Xiang.. His mother's family might have not stood up for her, but he could stake his life on the fact the people he called his family would never leave their side.
