Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 780 Shallow Wife

Chapter 780 Shallow Wife

??Shui Xian avoided her eyes as he said, "What are you saying, wife? I really can't leave you alone in this condition." Raelle continued to look at him. So he ended up sighing and saying, "Okay, I accept. A part of me is also using it as an excuse to just stay with you. But you can't blame me. Since the time we got married, we really didn't go on a long vacation together."

??"If you won't work, how will we pay for the hospital dues?" 

??Shui Xian almost vomited blood at her question.

??"Really? Baby, I think I can afford that much in life," he told her. "Not just now, I can afford your hospital expenses for life."

??"Are you cursing me? To not be able to leave the hospital in this life?"

??"I don't dare," he shook his head like a rattle. "Don't twist my words against me." He took a pause and added, "And even if I can't pay, my wife is very capable and rich."

??"You want me to pay for myself?" 

??Shui Xian stared at her and pinched her nose once again, "Baby, why are you so calculative when it comes to money?"

??"Because it's easy to measure," she told him. "You can't measure feelings and feelings are also complicated. Money is very simple to understand." She thought about it and added, "Also, I want you to understand that your wife is a very shallow person. She can't do anything before beauty and money. Didn't I tell you, I married you because you're good-looking and you also have money."

??Shui Xian continued to listen to her nonsense attentively in amusement. He didn't believe a word she just said. Apart from the fact that the concept of money was easy to understand for her rather than feelings. Other than that, she was really talking all nonsense.

??"Oh, I didn't know Fai taught you his nonsense," he stated.

??"How is that nonsense?" she asked.

??"Because the thing you lack most in life is money," he replied. "Maybe that's why it's very easy for you to understand the concept of money. But you always lacked feelings so you find it very difficult to understand it." He patted her head saying, "Baby, you're anything but a shallow person. And I know that already. I don't need to understand my wife any more than what I already do."

??"What do you understand about your wife?" she asked.

??"I understand that my wife is a very precious treasure," he replied. "And she is all I need in my life." He tapped her nose and added, "Don't try to kick me out. I'm not leaving. As long as you're not going back to work, I'm gonna stay with you."

??"How can you be so willful as a businessman?" she questioned.

??"I can be," he said. "Because I am the boss. I deserve to be willful once in a while." He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, forget about this. Let me help you wash up now. Then we'll have brunch. This is no time for breakfast."

??"I can go myself," she told him when she noticed him trying to pick her up.

??"I know," he replied but still carried her in his arms. "But just because you can do it yourself, doesn't mean you have to. I don't want you to walk around so I'll help you."

??"Excuses," she said.

??Shui Xian smiled as he placed her down in the bathroom and kissed her forehead saying, "I have a lot more excuses. And I can be very shameless when I want to be. You already know I'm clingy. So, get used to it."

??"You're clingy but now, you're clingier," she told him.

??"I can't help it," he said with a small smile. How could he tell her that this incident scared him to the core? He really wasn't willing to take a step away from her anymore. He wanted to keep her where he could see her. Although he knew it wasn't possible all the time, he still wanted to do it as much as he could. "Be good and brush your teeth. I'm gonna arrange something for us to eat."

??Shui Xian went out of the ward and called his father.

??"What? Don't ask me any more questions."

??Shui Xian was startled to hear the hoarse voice of his father. Had he been crying again? Was it because of the questions they had yesterday? Shui Xian suddenly felt bad for his father and said, "No, I have no questions for you. But I do need your help."

??"What is it?" asked Shui Koshing curiously.

??"You see, Bà, your daughter-in-law is in hospital and I can't possibly leave her here and go to work. But these days, work is a little hectic as well. Ma Jin won't be able to handle it. Especially since we don't have a VP as well now. So..." He trailed off.

??Shui Koshing understood his meaning, "You want me to go back to work? I took early retirement."

??"Yeah, you can temporarily cancel your retirement," said Shui Xian. "You're still very young. Help you son a little."

??"Fine!" said Shui Koshing. "But I'm doing it because I don't want you to leave my daughter-in-law alone. Don't get any ideas that I'm doing it for you."

??Shui Xian smiled and agreed, "Yes, yes, it's all for Raelle." Originally he had no such plan to make his father go back to work. Even if there was no VP, he could still manage his work somehow. He just had to promote someone. But listening to his father's voice, he realized, his father had too much on his head these days.

??It was better to use work to distract him. 

??It was killing two birds with one stone. How perfect! He was a genius!

??"Shui Xian!" 

??Shui Xian was walking lost in his own thoughts and with a sneaky smile of victory when he heard someone calling him. He stopped in his track. He was all too well familiar with that voice.
