Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1098: Black Spot

Shui Xian took a moment before he commented, "Actually, honestly speaking, it's not that difficult to like Uncle Kuijun. If Hyson put his prejudice aside for a moment, it'd be easy for him to see that Uncle Kuijun has a lot of qualities worth liking. He might have been deceived for a long time by his ex-wife but he isn't a bad person. In fact, if he was a bad person, he wouldn't have been easily manipulated or deceived by his ex-wife."         

    

Raelle hummed in response and didn't say anything since she had already had a similar conversation with Shui Xian before and she understood what Shui Xian thought about Zhai Kuijun.     

In truth, she also didn't think he was a bad guy but that didn't mean she was willing to force her best friend to accept him. Zhai Kuijun was a good man but so what? Xiang Hulin was also great, but did that mean she was willing to be close to him? Not really. She was okay with the relationship they shared. They weren't that close as a father and daughter but they weren't exactly strangers anymore either. And she believed with Hyson's personality, he could actually have a better relationship with Zhai Kuijun than she did with Xiang Hulin.     

"Are you happy now?" she suddenly asked Shui Xian.     

"Huh?"     

"You got your wish and we had a dance."     

Shui Xian grinned at that, "Happy? No, that word isn't even enough to describe my feelings right now." He held her hand as he took her to sit down because he couldn't see her standing for so long in such high heels. It looked painful to him. Then he stared into her eyes and said, "Don't always try to make me happy or I'll get unscrupulous."     

"Haven't I said before that I can afford it? No matter how you are or what you are, I'll take it all."     

Before Shui Xian could say anything, someone disturbed the mood between them as they heard a thumping sound.     

Both of them looked over and found Tang Hebe standing there with an embarrassed look and she even touched the tip of her nose unnaturally as she didn't know where to put her hands. She didn't mean to disturb them at all.     

"What are you doing?" asked Shui Xian.     

"I..." Tang Hebe took a moment to answer, "I actually came to congratulate you too but seeing that you seemed busy, I was meaning to leave quietly. Who knew my gown will get stuck while trying to pull it, my foot hit the chair. I guess I disturbed the romantic mood. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."     

"You know, if I didn't know any better, I'd think you did purposely."     

"But I didn't," retorted Tang Hebe in her defense. "Why would I do that?"     

"Maybe to ruin my engagement."     

Tang Hebe narrowed her eyes at him and said, "You think you're all that?"     

"Oh? Who was the one who looked at me with those loving eyes just a month ago?"     

Tang Hebe was reminded of her short amnesia and she wanted to bang her head against the wall once again. Why did her memory have to get stuck at that specific time period when she was madly in love with him? Why? Just WHY?!      

Now, she'd never be able to wash off this embarrassment in her life.     

"I never knew you could be this annoying, Xian," said Tang Hebe while gritting her teeth in frustration.     

"Well, now you know," replied Shui Xian casually. "Don't you think it's a good thing you got rid of me on time?"     

"Don't talk to me. I'm here for Raelle. Not for you," said Tang Hebe. "You're already becoming a black spot in my life. Everyone in my life thinks my life should revolve around you even if we have gotten divorced for years. Why is that so? They think I should be a little resentful woman who should hate you for moving on. So, I don't even wanna associate with you anymore. Because I already know what kind of rumors are gonna fly tomorrow."     

"And yet you came here?"     

"As I said, I came for Raelle," replied Tang Hebe. "You aren't that important in my life anymore. My son takes the most important place in my life."     

"Really? Where is that son of yours though?"     

Tang Hebe went silent when she heard that question since Justin wasn't with her. In fact, from the moment she entered the venue, her son hadn't been with her at all. Oh, she was such a pitiful mother whose son left her behind. Usually, sons would leave their mothers after they met their wives. Why was her son in such a hurry to leave her behind?         

    

Raelle pulled back Shui Xian and said, "Hubby, stop inciting her intentionally." She looked at Tang Hebe and added, "I'm sorry about that. He seemed to have heard the rumors you were just talking about. Maybe that's why he is so worked up."     

"You shouldn't be protecting your husband everywhere," said Tang Hebe.     

"But he is my husband. If I don't take his side, who will? Even if he is wrong, in front of the world, I'd still be on his side. Behind closed doors, it can be a different story."     

Shui Xian instantly lost his fighting spirit and smiled helplessly at his wife and decided to ignore Tang Hebe. He didn't actually mind her presence. But it really riled him up how it seemed like his personal life was everyone's business. He wasn't comfortable with the rumors flying around these days.      

His life might be revolving around Raelle but he wasn't all that oblivious to things going on around him too. At least, he was clear about the fact that people had a lot to say about how he was a divorcee and that he didn't deserve Raelle. As if he didn't know all that himself. But the way those people said it made him want to get into a fight with these people who loved chewing their tongues.
