Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 1248 Family Tradition

1248  Family Tradition

Song Xin'ai walked out of the Song family house and took a deep breath. Looking at the sky full of stars, she smiled as she said, "It's a beautiful night. It seems talking is tiring but once in a while, it isn't that bad either." She was very satisfied with what she said tonight, so she walked towards her car leisurely and even hummed an unknown tune.

She didn't listen to music and her music sense was just as good as Raelle too. So, the tune she hummed made no sense. But someone with a keen sense of music could still tell it was a very old song that she was humming right now.

As she got into her car, she checked her phone. As the screen lit up, there was a picture of the three of her kids that she had taken at Raelle's engagement party. It wasn't a surprise that it was the only picture she had of all her kids together. Just looking at their faces, her heart felt even more lightened.

She had some messages, so she opened the weChat to look at the messages. After that, she ended up looking at the Moments. At the very top, she found a picture of her kids eating hot pot together. It seemed to be taken tonight. She was pleasantly surprised. The photo was posted by Xiang Wai with the caption: 'Thanks for the meal, Cloe.'

Her fingers lightly touched the faces of her kids before she liked the post and exited the WeChat. Fastening her seatbelt, she started the car to leave.

As she got on the highway, her phone rang. She usually would ignore the calls when she was driving but when she saw the caller ID, she put the phone on speaker.

"You are not in the lab?" came Xiang Wai's question as soon as she picked up the call.

"No," answered Song Xin'ai.

"If you're not in the lab at this time then you should be asleep. Why are you awake? No, where are you exactly?"

Song Xin'ai pursed her lips. No matter what, even Xiang Wai knew that if she wasn't in the lab then she should be sleeping at this time. And if she wasn't that means she wasn't home. She thought this daughter of hers didn't like paying attention to her. But it seemed she was still wrong.

"I was called back to the Song family," answered Song Xin'ai honestly. Even though she knew Xiang Wai hated even the name of that family, she still couldn't lie to her daughter so she calmly told the truth.

"What do they want from you now?" asked Xiang Wai. "Whatever it is. Don't stupidly agree to it. Even if you're not tired, I'm tired of you doing their bidding."

Song Xin'ai smiled to herself as she answered, "Don't worry. I didn't agree. I will never agree with them again."

"Promise?" There was a hint of anticipation in her voice that she couldn't conceal very well.

Song Xin'ai felt a bit sore in her heart when she heard that and decisively replied, "Promise!"

"I'll hold on to this promise then," said Xiang Wai. She saw that Song Xin'ai liked her post at this time and she didn't know why she thought of calling her mother. But she did. She didn't think she'd get a promise like this from her by calling at this time. This was a precious promise. After all, she still had faith in Song Xin'ai's words. If she promised, then it was a done deal.

"Why aren't you sleeping?" asked Song Xin'ai. "You don't have a habit of staying awake too."

"I was planning how to propose," told Xiang Wai.

"Oh?" Song Xin'ai's interest was piqued. "Are you proposing to Zhai Yanjun?"

"Yeah. Why I can't?"

"No, of course you can. But are you following your little sister now?"

"I'm not alone in this. You should look online. Raelle became a real trendsetter."

Song Xin'ai smiled listening to her and asked, "So, what did you plan?"

"I want to make him cry. Can't come up with the idea," told Xiang Wai in frustration.

"Why do you have to make him cry?" asked Song Xin'ai.

"Because I already bragged in front of Raelle that I have a plan. All because I wanted to one-up Cloe who hired an event planner for her proposal. Now, I can't even go to Ge to ask for advice or my lie will be exposed."

Song Xin'ai paused for a moment before asking cautiously, "Do you want mom to help?"

Xiang Wai was startled by her question. Then she smiled to herself and asked, "You will help?"

"Why not? If I won't help my own daughter, who am I gonna help?"

"Well, I agree that you're great but mom, can you really plan a proposal? I can't bring myself to believe that."

"Why not?"

"Because it was Dad who chased you back then."

"But my dear daughter, it was Mom who proposed to your Dad back then."

"What?! Why don't I know this detail?"

"You can ask your Dad if you don't believe me."

Xiang Wai was truly taken by surprise with this turn of events. Wait a minute. It seems to run in the family. Mom proposed to Dad. Raelle proposed to Xian and now her. "Then it seems I'm carrying on the family tradition."

Song Xin'ai laughed at her high-sounding reasoning but didn't dampen her mood.

"Are you free?" asked Xiang Wai.

"I have all the time for you, Wai."

Xiang Wai paused and then asked, "Then let's meet. I'll come over to your place. Is that okay?"

"Okay," agreed Song Xin'ai happily.

"You keep thinking about ideas. I have to make sure that Yanjun burst into tears. That's how touching the proposal should be."

"Yes, yes. I'll do my best for my daughter."

"I can trust you, right?"

"You can ask your aunt if you can trust me in this matter or not."

Xiang Wai had a suspicious look on her face and said, "Then I will ask her in the morning."

"Okay. Good night now! Stop thinking and go to sleep on time."

"Alright. Have you reached?"

"Yeah. I'm just parking my car."

"Okay. Then goodbye! I'll see you soon!" Xiang Wai hung up the phone happily and threw away the notebook and the pen. She didn't have to use her brain anymore. So, she went to dreamland without

any worries.
