Master’s Untamed Wife

Chapter 415 - Life



Chapter 415 – Life

Even as the sun slowly rose, both Hyson and Raelle didn't move from their position. Hyson had his eyes closed as he continued to ponder over Raelle's words. He usually didn't even need her words to understand her. But even her words always had more to it than it seemed. 

To him, she was that ray of enlightenment who made him understand his own thoughts. In fact, these best friends actually had their brains on the same wavelength. It was just that Raelle had a clear understanding of her own thoughts while Hyson always needed her to see things clearly. Everything she said wasn't much different than what he had in mind but it made a difference when she said it.

"Ellie!"

"Hm?"

"Have you ever thought about what life is?"

Raelle tilted her head to glance at him as she replied, "I don't have as much time to waste."

Hyson's eyes were still closed as the sunlight slowly caressed his face and hearing her answer, the corner of his lips tilted up slightly. 

"Since you're already wasting your time here with me, why don't you ponder for a minute?" insisted Hyson. "What is life to you?"

Raelle followed his words and pondered over them for exactly one minute as he had told her to do so. She didn't take less or more before she answered, "Breathing."

Hyson's eyes snapped open and looked back at her. "What did you just say?"

"I said life is breathing," answered Raelle. "Once you stop breathing, you'd be dead."

Hyson opened his mouth but he didn't know how to refute her words. For someone like her, life was really just breathing. There was no other meaning to her life. At least, she never thought deeply about it. And even if she did, she might really end up answering the same thing. Breathing was all there was to life. 

He suddenly let out a deep breath and nodded, "You're right. Life is all about breathing. Aren't we working so hard to fill our stomachs just so we can continue breathing? Even a drowning man struggles all for that one breath that could keep him alive."

"Why are you suddenly even thinking about it?" asked Raelle.

"Just wanted to," he answered carelessly. 

While they both weren't paying attention, Shui Xian had come looking for Raelle and somehow Lin Zhen ended up following him since his dog, Coco couldn't let go of Shui Xian. He really was questioning himself if he was really being betrayed by his own dog?

When he looked at the back view of Raelle and Hyson sitting there together, he felt like the scene was quite harmonious. 

"Fai!" Shui Xian called out and Hyson turned his head to look at him. "How are you doing?"

Hyson smiled at Shui Xian, "I'm as peachy as ever."

Shui Xian chuckled at his nonchalant response and shook his head but he actually believed Hyson's words. After all, he could see that Hyson was really as 'peachy' as he said so. He looked a lot relaxed and carefree than last night. And this realization made him feel at ease as well.

"It's good," he replied.

Hyson frowned at Shui Xian and commented, "Xian Ge, have you noticed?"

"What?"

"You've been treating me like I'm your son since yesterday," replied Hyson. "Is this what fatherly care is?"

Shui Xian scratched his head as he didn't know how to reply to that. Since Hyson was younger than him, he might have really ended up treating him like he was a kid. 

"But dear father," continued Hyson cheekily. "This son is very happy to see that you're so worried about me."

While Shui Xian glared at him, Lin Zhen ended up laughing. He coughed to disguise his laughter and said, "Sorry for that."

Hyson looked at Lin Zhen and said, "Zhen Ge, you're no better. If he's been acting like a father, you've been acting like a mother for years now."

Lin Zhen glared at him, "What are you saying?"

Hyson shrugged his shoulders, "Do you want me to call Yi Ge? He can prove that you really act like a mother who is always worried about everything."

"Don't talk nonsense," reprimanded Lin Zhen but his voice didn't really have any intimidation. He seemed like he was just playfully talking to Hyson.

Hyson stood up and went to Lin Zhen saying, "Zhen Ge, thank you for lending your precious dog to my family's Ellie. To repay the favor, how about I invite you over for breakfast?"

Lin Zhen looked at Shui Xian and Raelle who now stood together not that far from them and shook his head, "There is no need for that."

Hyson followed his eyes and looked at Shui Xian and Raelle before saying, "Don't look at them. They don't live with us." He placed his arm around Lin Zhen's shoulder as he added, "Let's go. Don't always act so polite with me. I'll introduce you to my mum."

Lin Zhen opened his mouth but he didn't get the chance to refute since Hyson had already dragged him. Lin Zhen was actually in a daze for a moment. Hyson had never introduced his mother to any of them. Although he talked about her, he never explicitly mentioned anything about her.

  "Is he okay?" asked Shui Xian to Raelle when Hyson left.

"Didn't he just tell you that he is?" She glanced at him and added, "He doesn't lie either. At most, he can hide things but he isn't that good with hiding either."

"Only you'd say that," commented Shui Xian. He held her hand and walked beside her, "Let's go home now. We've been out for a long time."

Raelle nodded her head, "Yes, let's hurry up. We have a lot of shopping to do today."

Shui Xian closed his eyes helplessly. They were still going shopping.. That fact that he wished would change overnight didn't change at all. Seriously, why was it so difficult to change his wife's mind?
