Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 778 Spelled Your Name

　　Zhai Yanjun laughed even louder. At this time, he forgot everything else around him. He forgot whatever he heard earlier and whatever pieces of mystery he put together as well. All his mind was on Hyson and his Aunt. 

　　In fact, Zhai Yanjun's condition at the moment wasn't much different than what Shui Xian went through today. Both these friends were swept into the mysteries of the past and both were mentally devastated. But fortunately, now, they didn't have to fight all alone. 

　　Shui Xian had his Raelle to protect him and Zhai Yanjun was fortunate enough to have Hyson. To Shui Xian and Zhai Yanjun, Raelle and Hyson were truly blessings. They both would have drowned in the waves of the past of their parents but the people of their present pulled them out of these waves.

　　....

　　Shui Xian woke up slightly later than his usual time. He was still holding Raelle in his arms and surprisingly, Raelle was still asleep. Shui Xian thought he woke up earlier but when he saw the time, he was shocked to find that it was already 9 o'clock in the morning. That meant, not just him, even Raelle overslept.

　　He was startled awake and sat up. He checked her breathing and heaved a sigh of relief to see how her heart was beating rhythmically. But it didn't make him feel all that better. She was someone whose body was very punctual. How could she oversleep?

　　Was something wrong?

　　Once this thought came into his mind, he couldn't get rid of it and scared himself silly. So, he ended up calling the doctor to check up on her. He stood beside the doctor looking really nervous.

　　"How is she? Is everything fine?" he asked immediately once the doctor was done.

　　"Mr. Shui, your wife is fine," replied the doctor. "Her vitals are all normal."

　　"Then why is she still sleeping?" asked Shui Xian seriously.

　　The doctor was baffled by that question but he still replied, "Isn't it normal for patients to sleep more? How else will they recover if they won't rest well?"

　　"But she has never overslept in her life," said Shui Xian. "Not even when she was a kid. So, you tell me, is this really normal?"

　　The doctor pondered over his words and understood why Shui Xian was reacting this way. His worry was justified. Especially considering how much he loved his wife.

　　"Mr. Shui, you really don't have to worry about it," said the doctor. "She is just sleeping. She went through such an incident that not only would affect her body but only her mind. So, it isn't surprising that she is sleeping more than usual. Don't fret. She's really fine."

　　Shui Xian finally nodded his head, "Thank you so much and... Sorry to disturb you like this."

　　"It's my job," replied the doctor. 

　　Once the doctor left, Shui Xian went to wash up and changed his clothes. When he came out, Raelle was still asleep. He sat down beside her and held her hand as he continued to gaze at her sleeping face. Oh, it was such a rare thing to wake up before her and see her sleeping so peacefully. But her peaceful sleeping was also scary since she didn't move in her sleep at all.

　　He placed her hand against his cheek and closed his eyes. 

　　From yesterday to now, he had one sentence flashing in his mind over and over again. 'I can hold up the sky for you.' That's what she told him and he engraved those words on his heart and soul. He believed those words wholeheartedly. 

　　He kissed her temple and continued to gaze at her lovingly. He couldn't stop. He felt like he could just stare at her face all his life without getting bored. This was his wife. His wife! The feelings she brought into his life made him feel alive.

　　Even with her unsmiling face, she had become the reason for his smile. With her around, he always wanted to smile brightly. After all, his dear wife loved his smile, loved his handsome face. All in all, she was really a face lover. 

　　As he was about to put her hand down on the bed, he paused. With his hand placed beside hers, he looked at the ring finger where he was wearing their wedding ring. But there was no ring on her hand, they took it off during the surgery. But one could see the faint ring lines left on her ring finger. 

　　It had to be the first time since he put on that wedding ring on her finger that she wasn't wearing it. This emptiness on her ring finger was glaring at his eyes.

　　"What are you trying to find on my hand so intently?" asked Raelle.

　　Shui Xian looked up and found her eyes open as she was looking at him. He didn't know when she woke up. "I'm looking for myself. Trying to see if I can find myself on the lines of your hands."

　　Raelle continued to look at him intently as she asked, "So, did you find yourself?"

　　Shui Xian chuckled softly, "I don't know how to read lines. So, I'm not sure."

　　"Then you don't have to try," said Raelle. "Those lines might not have spelled your name but I have you. And I can assure you, these lines can never define the path of my life. Only I can do that."

　　Shui Xian wasn't surprised to hear something like that from her. She was always a confident person. She never needed people to tell her what she could do, she would do what she wanted to do. How could mere lines of our hands change her life? She'd still do what she wanted to do. She really was someone willing to go against heaven for what she wanted.

　　Shui Xian's thumb rubbed against her empty ring finger of hers. Right where her wedding ring was placed usually. He didn't know what to say to her right now. It's not like he was really trying to look at those lines of her hand.
