Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 341 - Cutie To A Big Villain?

When Hyson was leaving, Zhai Yanjun offered to walk him out. Although Hyson didn't need that, he still let him be. As they walked out of Xiang Weimin's ward, Zhai Yanjun kept staring at Hyson who was putting on his face mask.

"Stop looking," said Hyson. "I know I'm handsome."

Zhai Yanjun pursed his lips at his words, "I didn't know you were such a narcissist."

"Well, now you know," was Hyson's answer. At a remote corner, he stopped and looked at Zhai Yanjun, "It's good that you are here. I had something to say to you."

"What is it?" asked Zhai Yanjun curiously. It was the first time Hyson was actively gonna talk to him, he was actually expecting a lot.

"Don't just call me your cousin so casually," said Hyson with a serious look on his face. "No matter what our relationship is, you're not allowed to say it."

"I said it to Weimin Ge because I trust him," was Zhai Yanjun's response. "And I didn't say it casually. It was alright when we didn't meet but now we have met and we know each other. I just want to cultivate our relationship. Is something wrong with that? I just want to be close to you. I want to know you better."

"You can do that," answered Hyson. "You can get close to me. You can even get to know me better. But don't use the word cousin again."

"That is our relationship," insisted Zhai Yanjun. "Your mother is my maternal aunt."

"And that's the only thing about you that I currently hate," responded Hyson. "Anything or anyone associated with my mum's past is unacceptable to me."

"Do you know what happened with Yue Ayi?" asked Zhai Yanjun. "I want to know. In fact, I was about to go and visit my maternal grandparents to understand what exactly happened back then to Yue Ayi. I really want to know what circumstances forced her to step back from our life."

"And who are you to question all that?" asked Hyson. "Did my mum gave you the permission to pry into her privacy? Yes, you're curious but is that reason enough? If my mum is not saying anything, isn't that because those times hurt her? Why do you want to pry open her wounds?"

"That is not my intention," said Zhai Yanjun. "I was very young when I last saw her. And yes, I don't remember that time but you have to believe me that when I look at her, I feel like I've found what I've been looking for."

The sincerity in his eyes pierced Hyson. It was these sincere feelings Zhai Yanjun had for Yue that Hyson was willing to become close with him. There was no other reason. He wasn't interested in making friends with just anyone. But he was willing to learn more about Zhai Yanjun for his mother's sake.

"I know it'll hurt her," added Zhai Yanjun. "I know it's not my right to probe into her privacy but I want to know it. I have to know it. Something is bothering me since the time I saw her again. Do you want me to go to her and look for answers instead of doing it behind her back? Because trust me, I'll do it. The problem is still that it might hurt her even more."

Hyson took a deep breath and told him, "I honestly don't know why you want to ruin the balance we all have in our lives. But I am not gonna care about it either. You better make sure your maternal family stays far away from my mum. If any of them came to haunt my mum's present, I'm gonna chop off your head!"

Zhai Yanjun was taken aback by that threat. It was his first time to see such a Hyson. This cutie was certainly in disguise! How did he suddenly look like a big villain?

"You can be at ease," reassured Zhai Yanjun. "I'll never do anything to hurt Yue Ayi. I just hope you don't stop me from meeting her."

Hyson snorted at that, "As if that's in my hand."

As they walked out of there, Zhai Yanjun was still following him as if he was Hyson's personal bodyguard making sure everything was alright with him. Hyson knitted his brows at his own thoughts. What bodyguard? This was was certainly a big bad thief! Who was actually trying to steal his mum!

"By the way, you aren't close with Weimin Ge," began Zhai Yanjun. "Why did you agree to come to see him again so easily?"

"Your Weimin Ge is spiraling down the road of depression," said Hyson. "Being tied to a hospital bed is taking a toll on his mental health. I believe he is a brilliant person. After all, he is already a Lieutenant Colonel at his age. And as I heard earlier, he seems to be a workaholic so this lazy time is actually detrimental to his mental health." Zhai Yanjun was surprised that Hyson actually managed to see it all in one meeting. That was all that the doctor said! Not paying attention to his shock, Hyson went on, "Seeing how my presence allowed him to relax a little, I chose to just agree to come. It's not like it's a big deal. I have a lot of time on my hand."

"You're really thoughtful and kind," said Zhai Yanjun with a smile on his face. He really didn't think he'd get to see such a side of Hyson today. Well, it seems his Idol cousin was actually really down-to-earth. "Thank you for thinking about Weimin Ge. He really needs company these days."

"Does he play games?" asked Hyson.

Zhai Yanjun shook his head, "He had never been interested in that."

Hyson tsked at that, "That's such a pity. We could play games together to divert his attention." Suddenly thinking of something, he added, "How about you get him some books? Ellie spent her whole life reading books and she turned out quite alright. I believe it'll help your Weimin Ge as well."

"I'll try that then," said Zhai Yanjun. He actually looked like an elder brother who was trying to spoil his younger brother by agreeing to anything.. Currently, if Hyson would have asked for Zhai Yanjun's most precious thing, he might have even offered it to Hyson.
