COLD CEO AND ARROGANT WIFE, VOLUME 4 - Season 8 Episode 31

Amiah rubbed her nose and changed the topic, “Hyson, about shooting…”

Before she could continue, Hyson hugged Raelle like a koala as he shook his head like a rattle, “I’m not going. My Ellie is still in the hospital, even if you beat me I still won’t go back to shooting! Not going! Not going. Not going!”

Amiah was left speechlessly staring at his antics while the rest of the people acted like they weren’t even surprised by Hyson’s reaction. Even Cloe looked unbothered. In Cloe’s opinion, everyone around Raelle was a clingy person except for Raelle herself. Just look at her husband, wasn’t he clingy enough?

It’d be a real shock to her if Hyson really agreed to leave.

“Let me finish,” said Amiah. “I meant to say that the shooting has been canceled for a week since I’m also here. I’m the director if you remember clearly. How is the shooting gonna continue when I’m not even there?”

Hyson also realized that point when she mentioned it.

“Get off of me,” Hyson heard Raelle’s command and his arms around her loosened their grasp.

“Stop acting like a koala,” said Shui Xian.

“Why? Aren’t koalas cute? Am I not cute?” responded Hyson.

“Koala? Call him Rafflesia arnoldii instead,” said Raelle. “He resembles that better. Once he attaches himself to someone, doesn’t want to let go.

Hyson gaped at Raelle, “Hey! How can you compare me to those ugly corpse flowers? That’s a parasite flower! How could you call me a parasite?”

“Ugly? I don’t think it’s ugly,” was Raelle’s reply.

“Is that the point here?”

Shui Xian chuckled while Cloe covered her mouth to hide the arc of her lips.

“Hey, babies!”

Raelle and Hyson’s back and forth bantering seized the moment the door was pushed open and they heard that all too familiar voice. Mu Chenyan looked at everyone inside the room and asked, “What’s going on?”

“Yanyan, it’s good that you’re here,” Hyson held Mu Chenyan’s arm and dragged her over. “Ellie called me a corpse flower.”

Mu Chenyan looked at Raelle’s blank face and then looked back at Hyson’s aggrieved face. She found herself in a difficult position. Both were her babies, how was she supposed to react? Argh! Why did she always run into such situations? She was okay with anything but everything that involved Raelle and Hyson made her brain malfunction.

“At least, she called you a flower,” responded Mu Chenyan as she caressed Hyson’s face lovingly. Well, that was the best she could come up with right now.

“Pfft!” Shui Xian burst out laughing and seeing how Mu Chenyan shot him a look, he instantly straightened, “Sorry!”

Cloe was biting the insides of her cheek to stop herself from laughing out loud. While Amiah was left confusedly staring at everything.

“Whose side are you on?” asked Hyson.

Mu Chenyan smiled at him, “I don’t pick sides when it comes to you two. In the end, I’ll be the only one losing.”

“Yanyan, you can ignore him,” said Raelle.

Hyson tsked at that, “There are over 7 billion people in this world, why the hell did I choose you as my best friend?”

“How would I know?” replied Raelle. “You’re the one who insisted on digging your own grave of friendship.”

“Yeah and now I’m laying in that grave of friendship with a corpse-like you,” Hyson shot back. Then he fist-bumped to say, “Oho! I got my revenge! I called you a corpse.”

“What kind of revenge was that?” asked Mu Chenyan in a soft voice as if talking to herself. Well, she was quite used to these weird situations so she wasn’t even surprised by how easily Hyson’s whole attention was shifted to something else. And she definitely will never understand his kind of revenge. Since her revenge definitely involved breaking a few bones or shedding some blood. Or at the very least, someone has to shed some tears to soothe the fire of revenge burning inside of her.

“Yanyan, did you bring me lunch?” asked Hyson.

Mu Chenyan ruffled his soft hair, “Yeah. Your share is added. You can go and get it.” She looked at Cloe and added, “In fact, take Cloe with you and eat with her.”

“Okay,” Hyson agreed readily.

“I was gonna leave,” Cloe tried to speak up.

“It’s already lunchtime,” said Mu Chenyan. “You shouldn’t leave without food.” Noticing Amiah, “Miss Shui, how about you eat with them as well?”

Amiah was at a loss. She waved her hand, “No, there is no need for that.”

“Well, I insist,” said Mu Chenyan. Then she turned to Shui Xian, “And you, my son-in-law, go and bring the stuff from the car.”

Shui Xian nodded his head, “Yes, Ma’am!”

Even though Mu Chenyan could bring the stuff in with the help of people who followed her to the hospital, she still insisted on making Shui Xian do the work. Everyone in the ward knew about this fact except for Amiah. But no one really reacted except for Raelle who held Shui Xian’s hand and looked at Mu Chenyan, “Yanyan…”

Shui Xian rubbed her head, “Be good. I’ll be right back.”

“Yanyan, I’ll have lunch with these two beautiful ladies,” said Hyson. “You have lunch with Ellie. I don’t wanna eat with a corpse today.” At the end, he even stuck out his tongue at Raelle.

“Scram!” came Raelle’s reply and Hyson just laughed it off as always.

When everyone left the room one by one, Raelle asked, “Do you love to make things difficult for my husband?”

“I didn’t make things difficult for him,” said Mu Chenyan. “He has been inside the hospital for hours. It’s good for him to go out and get some fresh air. At least, to get the stuff from the car, he’ll be getting some fresh air. I’m only thinking about him. Why would I make things difficult for him?”

Raelle could only accept her words. Because she knew Mu Chenyan wasn’t lying. If she really wanted to make things difficult for Shui Xian, the latter wouldn’t even be able to stand on his feet.

“Did you have fun yesterday?” asked Raelle.
