Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1041: Bald Spot



Chapter 1041: Bald Spot

Raelle rang the bell and nanny Mi opened the door. When she looked at Raelle, she was surprised but still welcomed her inside, “Miss Raelle, please come inside.”         

    

“Is Tang Hebe home?” asked Raelle.     

“Yes, yes. Miss is inside,” replied nanny Mi and led Raelle inside the apartment.     

“Nanny, who is it?” came Tang Hebe’s voice from inside.      

“Miss it’s Miss Raelle,” replied the nanny.     

Tang Hebe was taken aback by that answer. She didn’t expect this at all. She looked up from the magazine and then saw Raelle standing there. So, it was really Raelle. What a surprise.     

She just didn’t know whether it was a pleasant surprise or not, for now.     

“Raelle,” she called out. “What a pleasant surprise!”     

“Is it?” asked Raelle in return as she walked over to her side and sat down on the armchair. “Are you sure it’s a pleasant surprise?”     

Tang Hebe took a deep breath and already started bracing herself to face the burnt of Raelle’s attacks. Oh, how she was already so used to it that she subconsciously wanted to mentally prepare herself to not defend but to bear. Because defending would be pointless against Raelle’s attacks and would only make things difficult for herself.     

“How are you, Raelle?” asked Tang Hebe. “How is your recovery? Is everything okay?”     

“I’m fine,” replied Raelle. “What about you? How are you recovering? I see that your bandage is removed. At least, it doesn’t look like your head is wrapped up like a mummy. But now, I can see you’ve lost hair. Sorry for your loss!”     

Tang Hebe stared at Raelle for a long minute in silence before she chuckled, “How did you know I cried for an hour when I saw my hair?” She really thought Raelle knew about it why else would she be offering her condolences? And on a serious note, Tang Hebe needed these condolences for her loss of beautiful hair.      

“You look like someone who deeply cares about how she looks,” answered Raelle.     

“Just say, I look vain,” said Tang Hebe.     

“It’s a very strong word,” said Raelle. “But since you’re the one agreeing, then okay, I’ll also you’re quite vain.”     

“Thank you for the compliment.”     

“You’re welcome!”     

Nanny Mi was first baffled to hear the exchange of words between them and then she covered her mouth to hide her smile. She could see how light Tang Hebe looked after just a few words with Raelle. It was strange. Even if Raelle made her uncomfortable with her words, she also made her feel light and comfortable too.     

Such a bizarre creation of heaven was this Raelle Xiang.     

“What would you like to drink, Miss Raelle?”     

“Water would be fine,” replied Raelle to nanny Mi.     

“That’s too simple. How about some fine Longjing tea?”     

“I don’t mind that either,” said Raelle. “In fact, I don’t mind anything as long as it’s not poison. You see, I’d still like to live a long life with my husband. So, a big no to poison. Anything else is fine.”     

Tang Hebe’s lips twitched when he heard that and even nanny Mi was a bit taken aback. She thought Raelle was joking but then she thought Raelle looked too serious for that. But suddenly, Raelle subverted her views with her comment.     

“That was a joke,” said Raelle casually. “You can bring Longjing tea.”         

    

“Oh, okay,” nanny Mi ran away from there.     

Tang Hebe looked at Raelle and said, “You have a dark humor.”     

“I’m a dark person too,” argued Raelle.     

“I doubt that,” was what Tang Hebe said. She genuinely didn’t think Raelle was a dark person. Not even close. Maybe she wasn’t like the light that her best friend Hyson reflected but she wasn’t really darkness either. A person like Raelle who lived in reality with brutal honesty couldn’t be a dark person. That’d just make her a real person and nothing else.     

“On a serious note, how are you really doing?” asked Raelle once again.     

“Thank you for asking. I’m doing better now. Why else would I get discharged? Although my memory hasn’t fully come back yet, it doesn’t hinder me from living a normal life so who cares about what I forgot?” Tang Hebe shrugged quite casually. She looked to be in a rather good mood than she was in the hospital.      

Raelle was wondering if it was her illusion or something. Because lately, she noticed how everyone whom she saw as a gloomy person was suddenly acting like sunshine. Take Zhai Yanjun, Xiang Wai, or even Tang Hebe now. These were people who took things too hard in life and she could tell that when she met them for the first time.     

But now, there was a positivity around them that couldn’t be ignored.     

Her husband, Shui Xian also took things too hard when she first met him but he also slowly got better. But she’d shamelessly take the credit for that. As for the others, she had to think some more to figure out what was changing them.     

“The surgery wound is recovering very well. It’ll leave a scar but it’s on my scalp. It doesn’t really matter. It’ll be covered with the hair.”     

“But you don’t have hair,” reminded Raelle making Tang Hebe glare at her.     

“Can you stop reminding me of that?”     

“I’m just being honest.”     

“I know you’re honest. Try lying just to make me feel happy.”     

“Lies are like slow poisons.”     

“Stop!” Tang Hebe didn’t want her to continue from there. Not at all. “You can’t lie, right?”     

Raelle nodded her head honestly.     

“Then just ignore my bald spot!” said Tang Hebe. “Can you do that or not?”     

“I can try,” said Raelle. “I won’t be giving promises though.”     

Tang Hebe heaved a sigh of relief. It was better than nothing, right? She’d just take it. She should learn to be happy with her lot. Oh, no. She had been trying lately to be just happy with her lot and it made things so much happier and simpler in life.     𝒪𝑽𝓵xt.𝑪𝑜𝔪
