Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 935: Magic

Chapter 935: Magic

At this moment, whatever Shui Xian said would not be enough. It wasn't just a guitar that she placed into his hands. It was his long-buried dream. It was the real him. The precious part of Shui Xian was lost somewhere along the passage of time.          

    

But now, she dug out that piece from somewhere and brought it back to him.     

He didn't know what to say to her. He really didn't know because his mind was completely blank right now and he wasn't sure what to say. The only thing he really wanted to do was hug her. In fact, he wanted to bury her in his own body and never let go.     

You know what else was special about this moment?      

It was the fact this woman who knew nothing about music took her time and put her effort into bringing this surprise to him. She had no appreciation for music. She didn't understand anything about music. She didn't know how music could drive emotions or how one could use music to express feelings.      

The fact that this guitar was a gift from her held a very special meaning to him. One that even he couldn't explain in words at all.     

"Raelle..." he called out to her softly.     

"Hm?" she hummed.     

"Baby..." he called again.     

"Yes," she responded again.     

"My darling wife..."      

"What is it?" she inquired.     

He cupped her face in his hands while his thumbs caressed her cheeks and he said, "I just want to keep calling you."     

"Stop it," she said. "You'll get tired."     

He grinned foolishly, "I never will get tired." He pressed his lips against her forehead and buried her face into his chest again. There were plenty of feelings swirling in his heart right now. All those feelings squeezed his heart and made him once again face the reality that he couldn't be without Raelle in his life anymore.     

As he stroked the back of her head, someone's voice rang into his mind, "Too much of anything becomes poison of life. Whether it's fear, anxiety, laziness, food, anger, or even love. Master Xian, you're currently suffering from the poison of love. But do you want to know something interesting? Love is poison and the cure as well. The only antidote for the poison of love is the person who fed you that poison. You better keep holding on to that antidote of yours."     

Shui Xian sighed as he remembered those words once again.      

"Don't you wanna try playing it?" asked Raelle.     

Shui Xian happily agreed and took the guitar as he sat down on the sofa. With his sleeves rolled up to his forearms, his hair lazily laying on his forehead, his eyes moistened with sheen, his lips curled up in a beautiful smile. He appeared like he really went back to his youth as he held the guitar and tuned it before strumming a bit.      

His fingers found the strings very familiar even though he hadn't played guitar in years. Behind him were the glass windows, the sheer white curtains were drawn and allowed the sunlight to fall inside making a halo behind him. Raelle stood in front of him and watched his playing the guitar with a heartfelt smile on his lips.     

At this moment, she gave herself a thumbs-up. Indeed, her gift was right. She made the right choice. Although they wasted quite a few days in the hospital and original surprise was toned down, it didn't diminish Shui Xian's happiness. And as long as he was happy, it was all worth it.     

Seeing her standing before him with her eyes on him, Shui Xian looked down at the drawing on his guitar and chuckled. The scene seemed all too familiar. He traced that cute drawing and couldn't help asking, "Who drew this?"     

"I did," she replied shocking Shui Xian. Seeing his disbelieving eyes, Raelle asked, "Why? I can't do it? I know I don't have a creative mind for such things and my drawing isn't very good either but that doesn't mean I can't even draw this much. Lin Zhen said it'd be more personal if I drew it myself. So, I did. I didn't know what to draw so I drew what I had in mind. You playing the guitar while I'll watch you."     

"Watch me? Won't you hear me playing?" he asked.     

"I can't understand it anyway," she replied plainly. "So, I'll do what I can understand. I'll watch you and appreciate how handsome you look."     

"Hahahaha!" Shui Xian burst out laughing when he heard that. As always, that's his wife, Raelle Xiang. He could only expect this answer from her. No one else would say it apart from her. "Then you better keep your eyes locked on me."         

    

"My eyes are locked on you for good," she replied.     

Seeing him hugging the guitar so preciously, Raelle said, "You can put it down now."     

"I don't want to," he said.      

"Then what are you gonna do? Hug it to sleep?"      

"If I could, I'd want to carry it with me everywhere! But it's too big. Can't fit it in my pocket," he lamented in distress. He really ccouldn't bear to part with this gift. Was it just a gift? It was definitely straight attack to his heart! One that didn't miss the target but struck it to the core!     

"Then how about I use my magic and turn it into a smaller size for you?" asked Raelle.      

"Huh? My wife has magic now?" he asked showing his expression of surprise clearly.     

"I do have some," she replied without any mental burden at the moment.     

"Okay, then turn it into a smaller size so I can take it everywhere with me," said Shui Xian. "It'd be like carrying a part of you with me all the time. I'm excited just thinking about it."     

"Then place the guitar over here," she pointed to the coffee table before him. "And after that, close your eyes."     

"I have to close my eyes again?" he asked.     

"Of course, how else will my spell work?" she asked in return.     

Shui Xian bit his lip to stop himself from laughing and agreed obediently.
