Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1099: Masterpiece



Chapter 1099: Masterpiece

In fact, at this moment, there were plenty of eyes set on Tang Hebe as she stood in front of Raelle and Shui Xian. Of course, most gossipmongers were looking for some tea as they picked their ears trying to hear the conversation.          

    

And it didn’t escape Raelle’s eyes either. At this moment, she seemed to have understood what Song Xin’ai had told her the last time. The interaction between exes would always give people a reason to gossip for days. It was really not easy being just friends after a breakup or a divorce. Maybe that’s why most broken couples would try to avoid seeing each other.     

Just because Raelle trusted Shui Xian didn’t mean people believed that too. After all, who hadn’t heard a thing or two regarding Shui Xian’s first marriage? There are no secrets in the elite circle. It’s just a matter of which secrets are talked about at the dinner table and which are the ones that are only said behind closed doors.      

“You both pay too much attention to rumors,” commented Raelle leisurely.      

At this moment, the most relaxed person had to be Raelle who didn’t give a damn about what people were talking about or how people were peeping at them. After all, she had always been the unbothered queen. How could it be any different now?     

“Well, I have to,” said Tang Hebe. “There are plenty of versions going around. And most of them assume that I’m here to ruin your big day.”     

“Are you?” asked Raelle.     

“No,” replied Tang Hebe. “I sincerely came to congratulate you. And I only came because you invited me in person. It meant a lot to me. So, even if those people make me sound like a bad person, I had to come despite the uncomfortable feeling I was going through.”     

“Then thank you for coming,” said Raelle. “As long as you and I know why you’re here, isn’t that enough? You can keep giving people a reason to talk about it. Doesn’t that only show that you’re very important to those people? After all, if they can put aside their own life and focus on yours, doesn’t it show your importance?”     

Tang Hebe suddenly smiled when she heard that and said, “Sometimes, you hurt me with words, and sometimes you lift me up. You give me a very contradictory feeling.”     

“That’s one of my talents,” responded Raelle.     

Tang Hebe looked at Shui Xian and said, “Congratulations to you too, Xian. I don’t know if you really believe it or not but I’m actually very happy for you. At least one of us found love in this heartless world. And you got your wish. You actually found someone who loves you selfishly instead of selflessly.”     

Shui Xian silently observed her and seeing the sincerity in her gentle eyes, he was momentarily in a daze before he smiled at her and said, “Thank you and I hope you find yours too.”     

“Oh, I’ll keep looking,” replied Tang Hebe. “I decided to give up on it after one bad ending. But seeing your new chapter of life, I think it’s not bad to write a new beginning. Who knows, the second time might be a charm for me too, right?”     

“Then we wish you good luck,” said Shui Xian.     

Seeing this pair of exes talking so amiably, a lot of people who were looking for drama had a complicated feelings.      

After Tang Hebe left, Raelle looked at Shui Xian and asked, “Do rumors bother you too, Hubby?”     

Shui Xian sighed, “They are a little uncomfortable. Even though I’m Master Xian, I still seem to be not good enough for President Raelle.”     

“How is that possible?” asked Raelle. “You’re my Master Xian. If I’m acknowledging it, who gets to question me?” Raelle looked at Tang Hebe’s receding back as she changed the topic and said, “I think Tang Hebe is under a lot more pressure than you. I always heard men can get away with things but women don’t have it easy. I usually don’t understand it. But I seem to understand this situation. She is being pitied. She is looked down upon. People even look at her with a look of schadenfreude in their eyes. All in all, she had to stand up to a lot of things.”     π—ˆπ“‹π“›xt.𝑐𝑢𝐦

“And I didn’t think she’d be able to handle it,” Shui Xian shared his thoughts with her. He didn’t mind talking about his ex-wife with his current wife. After all, his current wife never took Tang Hebe as his ex-wife. To Raelle, Tang Hebe was just Tang Hebe. An individual who had her own identity. She didn’t feel the need to associate her with Shui Xian.      

Because she thought Tang Hebe deserved better. As a woman, she had her own identity. She shouldn’t be remembered for one failed relationship of hers.     

“I actually thought she might not come to our engagement. Because I could already tell how many people would gossip about her presence here. But even though she knew what kind of eyes she would have to face. She has become stronger.”     

“People need to grow with time,” said Raelle lightly. “If you don’t walk, how will you know what’s on the next stop? Every challenge in life makes you stronger and every failure makes you tenacious.”     

“Well said!”     

Raelle looked up and met those smiling and proud eyes of Mu Chenyan.      

“My Elle speaks so beautifully that you just touch my heart,” said Mu Chenyan.         

    

“You can stop before you go too far, Yanyan,” reminded Raelle since she knew if she didn’t stop Mu Chenyan, this woman wouldn’t stop gushing over her. “It’s not like I said something new.”     

“No, you don’t have to, my sweetheart!”     

Mu Chenyan lifted her hands as if she wanted to pinch her cheeks but stopped halfway through and put her hands down.     

“Oops, I forgot, I can’t touch you today. What if I ruin the makeup? I spent quite some time on this master piece.”     

“I am the master piece here,” said Raelle fully displaying the arrogance in her bones. “Not the makeup!”     

Mu Chenyan chuckled at that, “Indeed. You’re the master piece. My most favorite and precious master piece. And I spent quite some years on you too.”     

Now, who could argue with that statement? No one! That’s for sure.
