COLD CEO AND ARROGANT WIFE - Season 3 Episode 39

Since Raelle not only made him see his favorite food but she only made him smell it. This kind of torture and Hyson would easily let it go? Dream on!

And even that was not enough. For the rest of the time, he had to see this husband and wife being cozy with each other. Not like it mattered to him but he was still gonna get back at her for that food incident!

“Opa! She bullied me!” was the first thing Grandfather Xiang heard when he came back in the evening. Looking at Hyson’s eyes oozing with the grievance, Grandfather Xiang turned his head to look at his granddaughter who seemed unperturbed by these allegations.

Grandfather Xiang maneuvered his wheelchair and came beside Hyson’s bed before he glared at his granddaughter, “XIANG YENAY!”

Raelle spread her palms out and acted nonchalantly about both either it was Hyson’s allegations or her grandfather calling him ‘Yenay!’

From her reaction, it was certain that she wasn’t even denying anything.

“I left you here to take care of our little prince. How can you bully him?”

“Like I always do,” she replied matter-of-factly.

“Yenay!”

“Opa, even if you call me by that name a hundred times, I still won’t care.”

Even Hyson’s brows quirked up in surprise. Who didn’t know that usually whenever she heard that name it did something to her. For some reason, she just didn’t like being called, ‘Yenay!’ But today, she wasn’t reacting. Oh, this lack of reaction was truly surprising to him and Grandfather Xiang as well.

“While she was bullying our family’s little prince, what were you doing, A-Xian[1]?”

Shui Xian opened his mouth to answer when Raelle held his hand and pulled him behind herself. “Talk to me,” she said to Grandfather Xiang. “Why are you dragging my husband?”

*Clap! Clap!*

Grandfather Xiang looked at Hyson who was applauding like a seal who was enjoying the show. Seeing Grandfather Xiang looking at him, Hyson replied, “Opa, you should also clap right now. Today, our Ellie is being protective.”

“She is quite protective of you as well,” said Grandfather Xiang making Hyson grin at him sheepishly. Then he turned back to Raelle, “I won’t eat your husband.”

“What if you scared him?” retorted Raelle.

Grandfather Xiang glared at her, “I found him for you. Why would I scare him away? If he is not even scared of you, then he can’t be scared of me.”

“What’s the comparison between you and me?”

Hyson took this moment to interject, “There is no comparison, indeed. After all, you’re scarier.” Raelle gave Hyson a blank look and he went on, “See! That social smile of yours along with those blank eyes of yours is a deadly combination. And not in a good way.” He smiled at Grandfather Xiang as he added, “Tianyu has such a gentle face but you’re the complete opposite. As I said, no comparison there.”

“Hey, my wife is not scary,” Shui Xian poked his head from behind Raelle as he said to Hyson.

“Love is blind,” stated Hyson. “And since love is blind, I’m gonna pretend like I’m deaf.”

“Your best friend really knows how to get on someone’s nerves,” whispered Shui Xian to Raelle.

“This is why you’re not supposed to pay attention to him,” Raelle replied to him.

“It’s rude to whisper like that,” said Hyson. “Opa, did you see? These two had been doing this to me all day.”

“Liar!”

Hyson almost rolled his eyes at Raelle, “Okay, I’m exaggerating a little here. But that doesn’t mean you both didn’t try to turn me blind today with excessive display of affection.”

“What display of affection?” questioned Raelle.

“What you have been doing all this time!”

“So, what we have been doing is called the display of affection?”

“Argh!” Hyson gnashed his teeth. “Just go back already!”

“Okay,” said Raelle as she pulled Shui Xian along and left without looking back.

“You’re really going?”

“You told me to,” said Raelle as she stepped out the door.

“She really listens well,” remarked Hyson.

Grandfather Xiang shook his head at him, “Little prince, did she bother you a lot?”

“How is that possible?” retorted Hyson. “You should be asking whether I bothered her enough or not. Hehehe.”

“You really know how to annoy her,” said Grandfather Xiang.

“Her life would be too plain if I don’t do it,” answered Hyson.

Suddenly thinking of something, Grandfather Xiang asked, “Do they look good together?”

“As if you can’t see that,” said Hyson. “As you said, you chose Xian Ge for Ellie. Of course, your choices can’t be wrong. And anyone with eyes can see that they look good together. In fact, they look picture perfect together.”

“I feel like something changed in their relationship,” stated Grandfather Xiang.

“Your eyes are sharp as always,” responded Hyson. “Indeed, something changed. Xian Ge is in love with our Ellie.” Grandfather Xiang looked up at him in surprise. “Just be patient, Opa. There are a lot more changes to come yet.”

“I hope you’re right,” Grandfather Xiang’s voice was soft, almost like a whisper. He shook out these thoughts from his head and asked, “Forget about them and tell me how you’re doing?”

“I’m peachy!”

“Really?”

“Really!”

“That’s good,” smiled Grandfather Xiang. He touched Hyson’s head and Hyson leaned into his hand. “Just get well soon. Then I’ll ask Mu Chenyan to make all the things you love to eat. In fact, if our little prince wants, even I will personally cook for you.”

“How did you know it was about food?”

“There is no other way possible for Raelle to bully you.”

Hyson chuckled when he heard that. Indeed, he’d never complain unless it’s about food. Otherwise, bullying had been very common between him and Raelle. They both loved to take a jab at the other at every possible chance.
