COLD CEO AND ARROGANT WIFE - Season 3 Episode 29

Since Raelle said she’ll call Bà, she did exactly that. In the evening, she gave him a video call. As the call connected and Shui Koshing’s face appeared on the screen, Raelle waved her hand at him, “Hi, Bà!”

Shui Koshing’s face brightened up when he saw Raelle’s face, “My darling daughter, how are you doing?”

“I miss you!” replied Raelle almost instantly catching Shui Koshing off guard. He was really taken aback by her words. “I looked it up. What I’m feeling right now is definitely called missing someone.”

“Oh?” responded Shui Koshing as he leaned his head against the headboard of the bed.

“It’s true. When I come home, you’re not waiting for me. That makes me feel like something is wrong around me. I can’t play games with you either or discuss the book you’re reading. I don’t like it. Come back, eh?”

Shui Koshing’s heart instantly melted in a puddle to the point that his eyes started tearing up. He didn’t know what to say to her.

“I miss you more,” he told her honestly.

“You do?” inquired Raelle.

Shui Koshing nodded his head, “I do.”

“Then when are you coming back?” she asked.

“Soon,” he replied.

“Be specific. Just a couple of hours from now can also be described as soon and a couple of days from now can also be described as soon. Which soon are you talking about? Be more specific with me.”

Shui Koshing chuckled helplessly at her words and said, “How about I give you a surprise?”

“I don’t like surprises though,” answered Raelle. “I like to know everything beforehand.”

“Okay. Then I’m coming in a couple of days. Is that a specific enough answer?”

“It’s acceptable,” she replied.

Shui Koshing patted his chest in relief, “Oh, that’s good.”

Shui Xian came to sit beside Raelle and naturally draped his arm around her shoulders as he looked at the screen and greeted his father.

“No one is bothering you there, right?” asked Shui Xian.

Shui Koshing looked at him disapprovingly, “Who can bother me? Just being Master Xian’s father is enough to make people keep their distance and manners.” He took a pause and added, “I wonder the level of reverence when they learned that my daughter-in-law is President Raelle.”

“It seems you’re enjoying yourself,” commented Shui Xian with a smile tugging at his lips.

Shui Koshing lamented, “There is nothing to enjoy here though. I left you both there, how can I enjoy here all alone?”

“Should we come to give you company?” asked Shui Xian playfully.

“There is no need, son,” replied Shui Koshing and looked at Raelle. “Did my son cause any trouble for you?”

Before Raelle could answer, Shui Xian spoke up in his own defense, “Bà, am I a troublemaker? I’m the most well-behaved one in this house.”

Shui Koshing gave him a, “Ha!” before he ignored him and turned to Raelle, “He is taking care of you?”

Raelle nodded her head, “He is good at taking care of people. There is no other problem except that he has been repeatedly saying no to my suggestion of having a ba… mmph!” Shui Xian had placed his hand over her mouth before she could finish her sentence. He really didn’t think she’d bring it up before his father to complain like this.

“Wifey, Bà doesn’t need to know this.”

Raelle blinked at him.

“It’s between us.”

Raelle tapped his hand that was over her mouth and as he put it down, she went on, “I was gonna say you’re refusing to take my suggestion regarding having a battle in the game. Didn’t you say you don’t want to?” She leaned her face close to his ear as she whispered, “What did you think about, Hubby?”

Shui Xian’s ears turned red. Not just because of her breath fanning over his ear but also because of embarrassment. He thought she was gonna bring up the discussion of ‘having a bath together’ but she ended up talking about the game they were playing in a team.

“Xian, why are you refusing?” asked Shui Koshing after clearing his throat. “Are you scared of losing?”

“Yes, Bà!” agreed Shui Xian without hesitation. “I’m actually scared of losing from her in the arena battle. My ranking will drop if I lost from her.”

Shui Koshing smiled in amusement before he tsked at his son, “Can’t you even do this much for your wife?”

Raelle also chose this moment to tug at his sleeve as she asked, “Right, can’t you do this much for your wife?”

“Fuck!” Shui Xian cursed under his breath. “Fine! Fine! Let’s have that arena battle. But I’ll be the one choosing the bet.”

“Okay. What are we betting?” inquired Raelle.

“If you lost, your character has to get married to my character in the game!”

“And If I won?”

“Then my character will marry your character!” he answered cheekily.

“How is that different?” asked Raelle. “Do you think you can fool me with this?”

“I’m not trying to,” replied Shui Xian. He looked at his father, “Bà, you become the judge of it. If her character marries mine, it means I’m taking her home. But If my character is marrying hers, that means she is taking him home. Is that the same thing?”

Shui Koshing really wanted to smack his son for making such a childish bet but it really made him feel happy as well. Such a small matter of playing games and they were already happy and content with it. How could he be not happy to see all of it?

“It’s not the same,” he answered.

Raelle thought about it before just going along with her husband and her father-in-law, since she could see the smiles on their faces by doing so, she just chose to do so, “Fine. Just set the time for the battle!”

Shui Xian was already more than happy to get this agreement as he kissed her cheek and said, “Then it’s settled.”

As they continued to chat about random things, the time passed without any of them realizing it at all. Shui Koshing felt like he was just there with them enjoying his evening with his kids. He had been missing this feeling for days. But just after seeing his kids did he realize just how much he was missing all of it.
