Master's Untamed Wife-Chapter 1044 - 1044 Want To Fly
1044 Want To Fly
While Justin was still on the phone with Xiang Weimin, Raelle waited patiently. From her peripheral vision, she could see that Tang Hebe had something to say but she was hesitating. Who knew why she was hesitating though? It could be because it was a difficult topic to bring up or it could entirely be because she was a little traumatic because of her experience with Raelle.
Raelle would like to believe it was the second option.
“Just say it already,” said Raelle, and Tang Hebe was startled badly by how suddenly Raelle spoke out.
“Can you please give a warning before speaking? I have a weak heart.”
“I thought your head was injured,” commented Raelle. But then she denied herself, “Oh, I almost forgot. You’re born a weak person. How else would you have been schemed against so easily by your own family? If you weren’t a weak person, you wouldn’t have run either.”
“Is your name ‘reminder’?” asked Tang Hebe. “Why do you keep reminding me of everything I did wrong in life?”
“That’s a wrong question,” said Raelle. “You should be asking if you have ever done anything right in life. And the answer is yes. You adopted Justin. For that good deed alone, I’m willing to say you’re not hopeless indeed.”
“Oh, thank you so much! All I ever wanted was recognition from Raelle Xiang. Now, that I have it, I can’t even express my feelings.”
“You’ve subconsciously spoken the truth,” said Raelle, and Tang Hebe stiffened. “Indeed, you always wanted recognition. Either it was from Qian Yin or me. People told me I made my life difficult by working endlessly. But from the moment I met you, I realized that the person who had been making her life difficult had been you. Was it fun chasing after the shadow of a person who didn’t even know you? It’s almost like those fans in the entertainment industry who ceaselessly and desperately chase their idols.”
.....
“Every time I sit with you, it goes two ways,” started Tang Hebe. “Either I’m getting bashed by your hurtful words or I’m getting lectured. I don’t know how to feel about this.”
“I’ll try to control myself,” said Raelle which Tang Hebe definitely didn’t expect at all. “I’ll try to keep my words less hurtful and try to avoid lectures as well.”
“I...” Tang Hebe was suddenly at a loss and avoided her eyes as she muttered, “Who said I want you to stop?”
In fact, no matter how hurtful Raelle had been, Tang Hebe accepted it. She wasn’t her old self so she was willing to be open-minded about everything and be a little more generous. Especially with Raelle. She didn’t even mind getting these lectures. Or else she would have blown her top if the same thing happened when she was younger. Now, she could actually understand Raelle’s words and always analyzed every word Raelle said carefully.
Lately, she had nothing else to do anyway so she was spending time replaying Raelle’s words over and over in her mind.
At this point, even Tang Hebe would say that she was obsessed with the person named Raelle Xiang. Whether it was years ago or now, she was obsessed for different reasons of course.
“What’s on your mind?” asked Raelle.
“I’m wondering if you still don’t know how you know Chi Xirui.”
“I don’t,” answered Raelle. “But I’m looking into her. It isn’t looking very optimistic for now but it’s going somewhere.”
Tang Hebe nodded her head, “Do you think I forgot something related to her as well?”
“It’s quite possible,” said Raelle seriously. “You said it yourself that you still have blank spots in your memory but then again, not everyone can remember every detail of life. So, there is no need to be so serious about this.”
“Sorry, I can’t help you much.”
“It doesn’t matter,” replied Raelle, and went silent when she saw Justin coming back with her phone in his hands. He gave it back to her with his eyes brimming with eagerness. “Are you done?” Justin nodded his head to answer. “Then did you get your answer?” Justin nodded once again. “Are you satisfied with the answer?”
He nodded his small head once more.
“Aiyo, my baby is looking very happy,” commented Tang Hebe. “What happened? Won’t you share it with me?” 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
Justin ran to his mother and Tang Hebe picked up his small body as she placed him on her knees. “Mom, we’ll be going to the engagement party, right?”
“Of course,” answered Tang Hebe. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m
Justin smiled happily to hear that, “Uncle said, he’ll show me his garden.”
Tang Hebe rubbed his head and smiled happily at her son. She knew whom her son was talking about. She actually hadn’t met Xiang Weimin but she heard a lot about him. Obviously, it wasn’t from Raelle Xiang. It was her own son who wouldn’t stop talking about this uncle whom he met at the hospital and liked a lot.
Although she didn’t know how Xiang Weimin managed to tear down the walls around her son to approach him, she was still happy. After all, there were no male figures in Justin’s life. He only had her and the nanny around him all the time. She really thought it affected his growth but she couldn’t do anything about it either.
“Why wait for so long?” asked Raelle.
“Hm?” Both Tang Hebe and Justin looked at her.
“I can bring you to him right now,” added Raelle. “After all, the engagement party won’t be held at home. So, you won’t be able to see his garden. But if you come home, you’ll be able to see his cherished plants. Do you wanna go with me?”
Justin’s eyes sparkled and even Tang Hebe could feel his eagerness. She didn’t know what to do in this situation but when her son looked at her hopefully as if asking for her permission, she couldn’t say no either. She gritted her teeth and said, “Okay, you can go if you want to.”
Justin giggled like a real kid his age and it stunned Tang Hebe for a moment and she only snapped back to reality when Justin kissed her cheek and jumped down from her knees.
Tang Hebe was looked at her son’s back as he ran to his room to get dressed. Raelle took this moment to say, “Kids grow up too fast and when their wings are able to bear their weight, they want to fly.”
Tang Hebe turned to glance at Raelle who pretended like she wasn’t the one who just said that at all.
