Chapter 1186: [Bonus chapter] Think About It

Raelle looked up from the book in her hand at her husband who came to sit with her. "What?"    

"There is an argument going on over there."    

"About what?"    

"About Weimin Ge's marriage with Tang Hebe," answered Shui Xian with a strange expression."    

"Who came up with that?" asked Raelle. "Oh, forget it. It must be Hyson."    

Shui Xian gave her an appreciative nod, "Indeed. You know him the best. It's him. He brought it up." He tsked to himself, "I don't even know how these strange ideas come to his mind?"    

"It's a strange idea?" asked Raelle. "How?"    

"Baby, you don't think it's strange?" asked Shui Xian.    

"I don't think so," answered Raelle.      

Shui Xian was momentarily stumped. He went to the kitchen to get a cup of coffee for himself and came back to see Raelle focusing on the book again. She leaned against the side rest of the sofa and was sitting with her feet on the sofa. Shui Xian went to sit with her again but this time, he took her fair and delicate feet in his hands and put them on his lap before taking his cup of coffee from the table and asking again, "You really don't think there is something wrong with Fai's idea?"    

Raelle put the bookmark in the book in her hands and put it aside as she faced him, "What do you wanna know? Whether I mind this arranged marriage or this arranged marriage with Tang Hebe?"    

Shui Xian's lips parted but nothing came out for a while. "I... I don't know."    

"Why are you bothering my daughter-in-law?"    

Shui Xian looked up at his father and said, "When did I bother her? We are just talking, Bà. Is something wrong with me talking to my wife?"    

"You're taking her reading time, so, of course, you're bothering her," argued Shui Koshing."    

"At this point, I don't even wanna remind you that I'm your son. Because clearly, it's pointless."    

Shui Koshing shrugged and turned to Raelle, "What is this fool anxious about?"    

"Hyson suggested getting Weimin and Tang Hebe to get married," told Raelle.    

"Oh," was Shui Koshing's response.    

"That's it, Bà?" asked Shui Xian. "You have nothing else to add to that 'oh'?"    

"No," responded Shui Koshing. "I don't have anything else to add to that."    

"Am I the only one finding this strange here?"    

"Yes," answered Shui Koshing. "I don't know why you're even wasting your time on this. Think about it yourself, Xian. And before thinking about it, put aside your prejudice for Tang Hebe."    

"I don't have any prejudice against her," said Shui Xian.    

"Is that so?" Shui Koshing sounded so perfunctory that Shui Xian felt like a breath was stuck in his chest or something. And seeing his wife's nonchalant reaction, he really wondered if he was overreacting.        

"Fine. I'm gonna put aside my feelings. What else?"    

"Then now, think what's best for Justin. Don't think about Tang Hebe or Xiang Weimin. You just have to consider that little boy. Just him. And now tell me, what is wrong with what Fai suggested?"    

Shui Xian thought about it just as his father told him to do so. He had to agree that if he didn't consider Tang Hebe in the picture, marriage seemed like the best option. Especially since Justin instantly bonded with Xiang Weimin and was so already looking up to him. He did lack a father figure and he found it in Xiang Weimin. So, it'd be easier for him to accept Xiang Weimin as a father.      

But that didn't mean for a father, he'd be willing to leave the mother who had been with him through all those dark nights when he woke up scared.      

"Okay. I agree. I don't see anything wrong with giving Justin a complete family," said Shui Xian. "But are we gonna overlook the fact that there are no feelings between Tang Hebe and Xiang Weimin."    

"Hubby, do you remember what I told you when we went to get our first coffee together?" asked Raelle.    

Shui Xian recalled that meeting. It was all so vivid in his mind that he could still hear her voice in his head. "You said, marriage isn't all for love. I tried the first time for love, this time I should give it a try for something else."    

"And how did that go for you?" asked Raelle.    

"I'm glad that I agreed at that time. It was the best decision of my life," said Shui Xian.    

"Let's not forget that you agreed to marry me because you wanted to do something for Bà. Am I right?" Shui Xian nodded his head. "But still, didn't we build a relationship that can make anyone envious?"    

"We did," he replied smugly.    

"Then what's wrong with Xiang Weimin and Tang Hebe's marriage for the sake Justin's happiness? Who can guarantee that they won't be happy together or it'll be a bad decision?"    

"See? My daughter-in-law is so much smarter than you," said Shui Koshing. "No wonder I like her more than you. Who would like an idiot son?"    

"Well, Bà. I know you love me."    

Shui Koshing had a smile in his eyes but tried to suppress his lips and said, "Well, who told you to look like your mother? Don't be mistaken. It's just that I see the shadow of your mother in you that I spare some love for you. Or do you think I'm a fool to love a fool like you?"    

Shui Xian chuckled at that, "Should I go thank mom now? I always told her though that her husband has no love to spare for his children because all his love is for her."    

"There is no lie in that."    

Shui Koshing didn't deny it at all. He didn't think there was a need to do so. He did love his wife more than anyone. Even more than his children. Who would care about these troublemakers who always tried to snatch his wife's attention?
