Chapter 962: More Or Less

Seeing Raelle holding a black color pill, Shui Xian paused, "Baby, what is that?"

"A pill," answered Raelle.

Shui Xian pursed his lips, "I can see that much. What I mean is, what you're doing with it?"

Raelle threw the pill into her mouth and bit into it saying, "Eating it."

Shui Xian rubbed his forehead. His wife's answers were always... interesting.

"It's Chinese medicine, isn't it?" he asked and saw her nodding her head. "Isn't it bitter? You're supposed to take it with water."

"No, I was told I can treat it like candy," said Raelle.

"Who said it?"

"The person who gave it."

"Who gave it?"

"About that..." Raelle had to tell him in detail about where this pill came from and as expected, his face changed color when he heard that she needed these pills to recover. It meant she wasn't doing well.

"Should we go back to the hospital for another examination?" asked Shui Xian.

"Stop fretting," said Raelle. "The doctor said I'm doing absolutely fine. Why don't you think that the person who sent these pills is a swindler or something?"

"Opa won't let you take anything he didn't trust in," replied Shui Xian.

"True," agreed Raelle. "Opa would definitely not take my health lightly. And that also means you can also trust that I'll be fine."

Shui Xian recalled how her appetite had been getting worse and worse lately. She wasn't a big fan of food from the beginning but she always ate enough to maintain her health. Now, she ate like a bird which was so not like her. How could he not worry about that? No wonder he was feeling weird about it.

Raelle placed her hand on his hand saying, "Stop thinking. Your mental health is more important. My situation isn't as bad as you're making it seem in your head."

Shui Xian wasn't really convinced by those words at all.

"Are you really okay?" he asked. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦m

"I am," she replied. "By the way, did I mention that the person who made these pills was very handsome?"

Shui Xian raised his brow at her, "Oh? How handsome? More than your husband?"

"More or less," she said making him gasp. Raelle closed his mouth with her index finger saying, "Why are you so surprised? You know I like beautiful things. If that person is beautiful, I can't lie to you and say otherwise. That won't be fair."

"At least it'd make me feel good," he said.

"Hubby, I think I told you that you should start feeling the joy of bitter pills of truth that I like to distribute. Because the sweet candy of lie is not my cup of tea."

Shui Xian chuckled when he heard that.

"Wow! My wife always speaks straight to my heart." He sighed. "So, what was it that you liked so much about that person? It couldn't just be his face."

"He had green eyes like the deep forest filled with hidden dangers and mysteries but yet beckoning you inside. Evoking that hidden adventurer inside of you. Luring you in to come and explore that mystery of that forest."

"Why does it feel like the person is dangerous?"

"What do you have to say about Xia Zhao?" she asked.

"Him?" He took a pause before saying, "He looks like a gentleman but there is definitely more to him. Anyway, we just met for the first time. I can't figure him out that soon."

"That person is supposedly Xia Zhao's nephew," said Raelle. "Do you think he'd be simple?" She took a pause and added, "Opa said Xia Clan had a close bond with Xiang Clan. Currently, we don't have that many people in our family so it seems like a simple family with a little bit of history. But I assure you, it isn't like that. And since my own family isn't that simple, I definitely won't believe that the Xia Clan is simple."

"True," said Shui Xian. "Bà also said that families that have long histories are never easy." He took a pause and asked, "By the way, what's wrong with Xiang Wai?"

"She heard about Hyson's father and now is struggling with this secret," said Raelle.

Shui Xian laughed out loud, "That's the reason for her getting sick?"

Raelle nodded.

"Wow! She is really amusing. I'm really interested in the mystery of how genes worked in your family. It's hard to believe that she is your and Xiang Weimin's blood-related sister. If it wasn't that she had a few similarities, I'd have really doubted whether someone exchanged her at the hospital or something."

Raelle looked at him laughing and didn't say anything.

"Don't you think it's funny?" 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

"Is it?" she asked.

"It is."

"So?"

"So, you're supposed to laugh at funny things."

"Ha! Ha! Ha!"

Shui Xian took a deep breath before he pinched her face saying, "Forget it. Don't bother. This laughter is worse than someone's crying!"

"You asked for it," she said.

"How many pills do you have to take?" he asked all of a sudden.

"Just three," she replied. "One for each day."

He nodded his head, "Should we go for an examination after you're done eating these pills?"

"You're still stuck on that?" she asked.

Shui Xian groaned, "I can't sleep if I'm not certain that you're doing fine."

"Let's go to sleep," she said.

"Huh?"

"I'm suddenly sleepy," she pulled his hand and dragged him to the bed. "Just lie down. How am I supposed to sleep if you're not there?"

Shui Xian didn't know what happened but he still silently followed her words and lay down on his side. She snuggled up beside him and closed her eyes. As if she knew he was still looking at her face, she brought up her hand to cover his eyes saying, "Sleep."

Shui Xian pulled off her hand and pressed his lips against her palm as he said softly, "Okay. Good Night!"

"Good night!" came the response in a low voice.

Shui Xian heard her even breathing and looked at the wall clock. It wasn't yet her sleeping time but she really fell asleep as soon as she laid down. What a surprise!
