Master’s Untamed Wife - Chapter 39

Shui Xian was about to pull away after his endeavor to tease her but he was definitely messing with the wrong girl. Raelle’s hand immediately held the back of his head and whispered, “As I said, I don’t take a loss.”

With that, she pressed her lips against his. She did it exactly like he did last time. Her lips moved against his slowly. Seeing how she was staring back at him, his eyes narrowed slightly. She was really a fast-learner. Holding her waist, he hoisted her up making her sit on the edge of the billiard table.

His hand tugged in her hair gently, angling her head for better access to her lips. If Shui Xian was asked at this moment, why he felt the urge to kiss her, he wouldn’t be able to explain it himself. Maybe it was because of how she tempted him with her innocent and yet bold self. Or perhaps it was because of how she kept challenging his feelings. He couldn’t describe this uncontrollable urge himself.

He sucked and nipped at her soft lips making her groan softly. He smiled against her lips before his tongue traced the contours of her lips as if asking for an entrance. Raelle was instinctively about to part her lips when…

*Ring!*

The sound of a ringtone seemed louder in this space. She placed her hands on his chest and pulled away. As she took in a deep breath, she said, “That’s my phone.” Without waiting for him to say anything, she rolled over the billiard table and jumped down to get to the couch where she had thrown her blazer earlier.

Looking at her like this, Shui Xian shook his head and rubbed his face. He groaned as he wondered, ‘What the hell were you thinking?’ But he really had no answer for now. He looked back at her as she answered her phone and thought to himself, ‘What are you really? You keep hurting me with your words and yet, I can’t help taking a step closer towards you.’

While Shui Xian was busy questioning himself. Raelle had taken the Call.

“This better be good, Cloe.”

Hearing Raelle’s voice, Cloe felt something was wrong. Although one couldn’t predict her boss’s mood from her voice, she still could tell that she must have called at the wrong moment.

She took a moment to say, “Chief, we decided the new terms of the contract. They’ll send the new contract tomorrow. I’ll bring it to you as soon as I receive it.”

“Tomorrow?” repeated Raelle. “I won’t be signing any contract tomorrow. Let’s do it on Monday.”

Cloe was taken aback, “Chief, don’t you say if something can be done on Saturday, we shouldn’t leave it to Monday? Besides, if we sign the contract tomorrow, the project construction will begin a day earlier.”

“Are you orating me with my own words?” retorted Raelle.

“I wouldn’t dare,” replied Cloe in a soft voice.

“I said, tomorrow is no good. I’m going on my honeymoon. So, don’t try to contact me unless it’s a life and death matter.”

*Thud!*

“What happened?” asked Raelle when she heard a muffled thud from Cloe’s side.

“Nothing,” replied Cloe trying to level her tone to hide the fact that it was her who fell down from her chair after listening to the word ‘honeymoon.’ It sounded that foreign from her boss’ mouth. She hesitated before asking, “Chief, so you really got married?”

“Why? Do you think I’d lie to you?”

“No, no,” Cloe shook her head frantically even though Raelle couldn’t see her. “It’s just that it’s hard to believe. I thought you’re against it. Isn’t that why you always made those offers to get rid of your blind dates?”

Raelle turned her head to look at her husband who had his back to her and said, “I said love is off-limits. I never said anything about marriage.” She took a pause and added, “In fact, it doesn’t seem that bad.”

“Huh?” Cloe was dumbfounded by those words.

“As I said, don’t disturb me for the next two days,” after saying her piece, Raelle hung up the phone.

“Are you done?” She heard Shui Xian’s voice and nodded. “Let’s go then.”

Soon, he brought her to their bedroom on the third floor. As he opened the room, he told her, “This is my room. But now it’s ours.”

Raelle followed him inside and looked around. The room was dominated by white and grey shades. Only the King-sized bed had black bedding. But even that had silver details.

Seeing her looking at the room so intently, he said, “If you want to change something just let the Head Steward know.” Raelle looked at him and he went on, “I mean, since you’re also gonna use the room, you’d like to add your colors into it. Right? I don’t mind it.”

Raelle smiled at him, “Hubby, I suddenly feel like our colors match well together.” While Shui Xian raised his brows in question, she added, “You’ll get what I mean.” What she didn’t explain to him was that her own room was also dominated by these colors. In her own big bedroom, the interior was just as minimalistic as his. That’s why she said their colors matched well together.

She had instantly taken a liking to this room that didn’t make her feel like she was at a new place. It just gave off the same feeling as her own room.

After that, he opened another door to lead her to the walk-in closet. It was not surprising to him that while he was gone, her clothes had already been set within his closet. From within the walk-in closet, he opened another door that led to the study. And from the study, one could get to the lounge on this floor.

“This whole floor is my personal space so it’s been designed according to my preferences. As you can see, it’s like a square. If you start from the lounge, you’ll eventually reach back here.”

“Interesting…” was all she said before they moved back to the bedroom.

While Raelle familiarized herself with where her clothes were, Shui Xian went to take a shower. When he came out, he was clad in comfortable pajamas. Following him, Raelle also took her sleepwear and entered the bathroom.

By the time she came out, he was already sitting on his side of the bed. Just as he had told her, he really preferred the right side of the bed. He was looking through his emails when she came out in her pink silk pajama set.

As she sat down on the bed, she asked, “When are we leaving in the morning? And where are we going?”

“We’ll be leaving at 6. And where we are going… That’s a surprise,” he answered while his eyes still skimmed through the content of the email.

“Surprise?” she repeated. “I don’t like surprises though.” Saying that she laid down and closed her eyes. “Anyway, have a good night, Hubby!”

Shui Xian looked at her face as she had her eyes closed and softly replied, “Good night to you too, Wife.”
