Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 643 Hefty Price



Chapter 643 Hefty Price

Xiang Hulin was a man of action rather than words. He immediately stood up and that’s when Raelle spoke up again, “You’re going right now?”

Xiang Hulin hesitated but still replied uncertainly, “Yeah?”

Raelle stared straight at him and Xiang Hulin felt like there was something in her eyes that he wasn’t able to understand right now. But what was it? 

”Just sit down,” said Raelle. “By the time you reach there, Opa would have gone to sleep. Do you think he is awake all night like you?”

Xiang Hulin pursed his lips and understood what she said. He sat back down and his brows suddenly furrowed up and he asked, “How do you know I don’t sleep?”

”Just guessing,” she replied.

Xiang Hulin narrowed his eyes at her, “I highly doubt that.” If she was just guessing, she wouldn’t look so certain.

”Well, don’t old people always lose their sleep?”

Xiang Hulin’s lips twitched, “I’m old and your Opa isn’t?”

”You look older, father,” said Raelle. “My Opa is still very handsome!”

Xiang Hulin didn’t know how to respond at all to her. He really wanted to say something but he held himself back. He sighed to himself. Fine! She was talking about his father, he could just let it go since at least she called him, her father right now.

*BZzzzz!*

Raelle opened her clutch and took out her phone which was vibrating. She looked at the caller id and then looked up at Xiang Hulin before she accepted the call.

”Elle, my dear baby, can you help your Yanyan a little?” 

Raelle stayed quiet for a moment. “Yanyan, you’re drunk.”

Mu Chenyan giggled giddily, “I drank a little. Just a teeny-tiny bit. Not much.”

Raelle leaned back leisurely as she inquired, “How may I help you?”

”Can you call home and check out if Elder Xiang is awake?” asked Mu Chenyan.

Raelle didn’t even have to ask to know what was up with this woman right now. It was obvious that Mu Chenyan was drunk and she didn’t want to go home while Grandfather Xiang was awake. Because if she did, Elder Xiang will give her a long lecture that she wouldn’t be able to forget for at least a week. 

Not like there was anything new about that. And Raelle was certain Mu Chenyan wasn’t this cautious because of herself. 

”How is Yue? And how about your niece and nephew?” asked Raelle in return.

Mu Chenyan licked her lips and her voice lowered as she replied, “Yue is unconscious. Weimin and Wai are no better right now. But it’s not my fault! They already knew about my alcohol tolerance and yet they challenged me again today. I just accompanied them. Really not my fault.”

”It’s never your fault,” said Raelle.

Just as she thought, Mu Chenyan was worried that if Grandfather Xiang knew about how she dragged the other three with her into her mess, she’d be dead meat! 

”Wait for a minute,” said Raelle and disconnected the call. Then she called Xiang Manor and inquired about her Opa. Knowing that he went back to his room, she hung up. She called Mu Chenyan again and told her, “Wait an hour and try to wake everyone up while you are at it. Opa has gone back to his room.”

”Oh, that’s good. That’s good,” Mu Chenayn seemed to be patting her chest.

”If you’re so scared of death, why court it?” 

”Because she never learns.”

Raelle looked up at Xiang Hulin who said that. And even Mu Chenyan heard his voice and frowned.

”Elle, who is with you?”

”Take a guess,” was Raelle’s response.

Mu Chenyan frowned, “Is that my Ge?”

”It is,” answered Raelle.

Mu Chenyan went silent when she heard that. Her already drunk brain started buzzing but she didn’t forget to ask, “You’re actually sitting together with my Ge? Is he alright?”

”Shouldn’t you be asking me if I’m alright?” asked Raelle.

”What can happen to my Elle? I’m more worried about my Ge if he is okay under the attack of your tongue.”

”I don’t attack people,” Raelle defended herself.

”Yes, you go for the kill!”

”Are you sure you’re not talking about yourself?” asked Raelle.

Mu Chenyan ‘hehe-ed’ before saying, “I’m still very gentle compared to you.” She took a pause and said, “Say hi to my Ge. And tell him, I miss him.”

”Oh, you’re really drunk,” stated Raelle because Mu Chenyan would never say that out loud if she was completely sober. She had been holding in her feelings for years. And even if she missed her brother, she’d never mention it before Raelle. “Anyway, you can tell him that yourself.”

With that, Raelle stood up and brought the phone to Xiang Hulin who was left staring at her and the phone in her hand. But he still took it from her. “Chenchen?” he called out.

”Ge~~” Mu Chenyan’s voice sounded so annoying at the moment but Xiang Hulin didn’t even flinch. If anything, he had a doting and helpless look on his face right now.

”How much did you drink?” He asked.

”Not much,” replied Mu Chenyan in a whiny tone. “Ge, are you okay? Let me send you some patience and strength. I know you need it desperately to interact with that daughter of yours. She can be a headache whenever she wanted to be.”

Xiang Hulin chuckled, “No, she is very sensible.”

”Sensible? Nah! She is so damn logical and rational that it makes her seem too detached from everything. But trust me, she isn’t heartless. She is just… special. So, bear with it. She is an amazing person once you get to know her.”

Xiang Hulin continued to smile and looked up at Raelle as he spoke, “Chenchen, I don’t need you to tell me that. I can see that she is amazing.” When Raelle saw the pride in her eyes, she found it quite interesting. 

Raelle had no hard feelings for Song Xin’ai and neither did she have any hard feelings for Xiang Hulin. In fact, for Xiang Hulin, she even thought he was wronged when he wasn’t at fault. It wasn’t even his choices but he paid the hefty price for it.
