Chapter 980: [Bonus chapter] Undress
While coming out of the tea house, Raelle called Anna and informed her of the piece of information she just learned. "You look for which volunteer group she joined. Maybe you'd be able to find any information. Also, check with her university as well."
"Yes, Missy," answered Anna. "I'll get to it right now."
"Then let me know when you're done," said Raelle before hanging up the phone.
"Are you done?" Shui Xian asked as Raelle got in the car. Raelle nodded her head in response. "How was it?" he asked further.
Raelle shook her head, "I didn't find much. But I still got something."
Shui Xian didn't ask anymore.
"Where do you want to go?"
"Anywhere," she answered in response. "You can't keep me at home all the time. I've already recovered."
Shui Xian only smile and didn't say anything. So what if she had recovered, he wasn't willing to send her out.
As they drove away, Shui Xian was thinking about something while Raelle also sat in silence. The person who was the clearest about Raelle's health condition these days. He was even more attentive than Mu Chenyan.
"Should we go shopping?" suggested Shui Xian.
"Sure," answered Raelle. At this moment, she was willing to do anything just to stay out of the home where she was asked to stick to the bed. She was about to become one with the mattress.
Shui Xian could tell that she was even willing to go do things that she usually found troublesome because staying at home without being able to do much was making her restless even if she couldn't express her discomfort properly. He could see it all.
Reaching the mall, he took her hand in his own and visited the outlet of Mu Chenyan and Yue Yue's brand saying, "Let's support the family business."
"You want to keep the money within the family?" asked Raelle.
"Of course," he responded. "We shouldn't let the water flow to others' fields."
Raelle didn't say anything and followed him in. In the end, he really ended up spending money on the store. Actually, they both held a card that meant they didn't have to spend a penny on this store. How could Mu Chenyan let them do that?
One was her favorite person and the other was her favorite son-in-law, they both deserved some perks, no?
And yet, she wouldn't have expected this couple to not even use that card. But then again, these two were rich and had nowhere to waste their money. How could anyone stop them from spending their money?
Only after spending money, they were happy to leave. After that, they visited other stores, and as always, at the end of their shopping spree, the one who had the most things was Shui Xian. And he picked nothing at all! It was all Raelle's obsession with dressing him up. His wife didn't play dress-up games in her childhood, so she was trying it at this age.
She didn't dress up her dolls, but she certainly enjoyed dressing up her husband.
He even said to her, "Baby, if you had dressed up dolls, you wouldn't have liked dressing up your husband so much."
"Who said I liked dressing you up?" she asked in return. "I already told you, husband, I like undressing you a lot more."
Shui Xian's lips twitched and he sighed, "I can't with you."
Seeing his helpless look, Raelle seemed really satisfied. But then she said, "Shouldn't you be happy about this though?"
Shui Xian nodded, "Oh, I'm exhilarated to hear you say that."
"Then when can I undress you?" she asked out of nowhere making Shui Xian cough and he looked around to see if anyone was around to hear their conversation. His wife was truly fond of dropping bombs anywhere and anytime. He really thought he couldn't completely get used to her style of doing things like this.
"Anytime you want?" he replied feeling really helpless.
"How about now?" she asked as she pulled him to the changing room while he was left empty-headed.
As she pushed him against the door of the changing room, Shui Xian finally woke up from his blank state and gaped at her, "Sweetheart, do you have to do this?"
Raelle nodded her head, "I do. You keep treating me like fragile goods. I need to remind you that I'm still the same Raelle Xiang. Do you think if you'd be considerate, I'd be happy?" Her hand was placed on his chest as she looked into his eyes, "What? You don't want to touch me anymore?"
"You're sick," he replied. "How can I even think about anything else at that time?"
"But now, I'm fine," she reminded him again. "Why are you still being so civil? Are you scared?"
"I am," he replied honestly.
"I told you it wasn't your mistake," said Raelle.
"I know but... I don't know. I just think we both need time to recover from this incident. Mentally."
"Are you asking a meat lover to become vegetarian all of a sudden? Aren't you expecting too much?" asked Raelle.
Shui Xian stared at her wide-eyed as he tried to hold back his laughter. She and her way of talking were becoming more and more eccentric.
"Baby, calm down."
"Which part of me tells you that I'm not calm?"
"Your nails are digging into my skin," he pointed out and Raelle removed her hand from his chest.
Shui Xian chuckled at her. He held her hand and placed it back on his chest as he said, "You're my lifeline. I can't imagine seeing you hurting again."
"Aren't hurting me now?" she asked. "You're refusing to give me my right! As your legal wife, I have the right to your body. How dare you refuse me to give me, your body!"
Shui Xian laughed and kissed her forehead, "Silly. Who can refuse to give you anything? But this is not the place for this discussion."
"People don't come to changing rooms for discussions," said Raelle. "I know it too. Don't think I don't know what they do in here."
Shui Xian rubbed her head, "Let's go!"
"No," she refused. "I'm not done yet."
"What else?"
"I haven't undressed you yet," she said plainly.
Shui Xian rubbed his temples. She was still stuck on that. "It's just undressing, what's so difficult about that? Do you think I haven't seen you naked before?"
