Master's Untamed Wife

Loretta Young wrote, 'Love isn't something you find. Love is something that finds you.'

Even in their wildest dreams, they both wouldn't have thought that love would actually find its way to them in this way. Because neither of them was looking for love, love had to do some effort to look for them instead. And it did find them. Now, the trouble was, how the love would crawl within their hearts when they both have closed the doors so tightly?

People said Raelle Xiang was a hateful character. She was too arrogant, thought of herself above others. But Shui Xian didn't agree with that. Especially after interacting with her. But he also understood why people had so many opinions about her even when they didn't know her personally.

It was obviously because of her honest nature. People who had built their lives on lies would obviously find an honest person like her quite uncomfortable. She stood out too much in the crowd. Even when she stabbed at his broken heart with her bitter truth, she made him realize every single time that he had also been hiding behind lies all this while.

He also thought he had moved on. He also thought it didn't hurt anymore. But with her arrival, he was reminded of all the pain and heartache. However, the way she worded the truth made him feel like he had been looking at life from a wrong angle all this time. She was wise for her age. And even though she was honest, she wasn't naive.

Her naivety was definitely only limited to the emotions she never got to experience in her life. As for why it was like that... He was suddenly very curious to find out.

The rest of the flight was silent because Raelle had taken out her book to read while Xian had closed his eyes to take a nap with his head still on her shoulder. And Raelle had even lent him her shoulder without any objection. After three hours of flight, they landed.

As they went out of the plane, their luggage was already being deposited in the car's trunk that was waiting for them.

"Master Xian," greeted the driver who had been waiting for him here, politely.

While Shui Xian was talking to the driver, Raelle's eyes wandered around as she tried to figure out where they were. She wrapped her woolen coat tightly around her since it was super cold around here.

"Shall we?"

Raelle looked back and saw how it was Shui Xian who had opened the door for her while the driver had already taken his seat. She nodded and slid inside while he followed behind.

"We are in a different province?" she questioned.

"Yes, we are," that was the only reply he gave her.

As the driver maneuvered the car out of the airport, she had opened her book again. Shui Xian pinched the bridge of his nose and when he opened his eyes, he looked at her reading a book. He continued to look at the side of her face while all her concentration was on her book. Just as the car moved on to the road, he closed her book and said, "Look outside. You can't find everything in books."

Raelle turned her eyes and looked out at the scenery. She was just as much a fan of beautiful things as any other person. Seeing the splendid view outside the window, her eyes didn't move. The credit went to the snow-capped mountains and the winter fairytale outside the window. It was a captivating sight.

He moved closer to her ear and said, "I told you, not everything can be found in books." She turned her eyes to him as he went on, "Somethings, we have to experience for ourselves."

"Why do I feel like you're actually not talking about the view?" she questioned doubtfully.

Shui Xian shrugged his shoulders, "Then you should find out what I'm actually talking about. My wife is very smart. I believe it won't be hard for you."

Raelle didn't reply to him. They silently spent around 45 minutes to reach their destination. With the pillow of snow in the background, the cabin before her eyes looked especially gorgeous. It looked like a secret hideaway tucked in the blanket of snow. It was so silent around here on the mountain as if there was no one around. But then again, this must be the beauty of snow.

As Shui Xian led her inside the cabin, she found it quite cozy. The heat from the fireplace made the air feel warm in the cabin. Then she took a whole tour around the place. While Raelle was looking at the white wonderland outside the window of their bedroom, he called out, "Let's eat something. We didn't have anything for breakfast."

Raelle checked the time, it was about 10 o'clock in the morning, it wasn't that late for some people but it was really late for her. However, even if it was late, she'd still eat it. Skipping a meal had never been her thing.

Raelle sat down with him to eat and he began, "You can rest for a couple of hours after eating. I'll take you out after lunch to look around."

"This place," she started. "You didn't rent it, right?" Shui Xian's brows arched up as she went on, "There is a family photo in the bedroom on the side table. The kid in that photo has the same eyes as you."

Shui Xian looked into her black eyes. In just a few minutes, she even had to notice that detail? Maybe she was right, she was really perceptive of her surroundings.

He nodded his head, "This place is like a family heirloom." Seeing how she was still waiting for an explanation, he went on, "My grandfather designed this place. It was his gift to my dad on his eighteenth birthday. Later on, it became my parents' hiding spot. They'd always find time to come here for a winter getaway."

She nodded her head, "It's understandable. This place is indeed ravishing." She took a bite of the eggs and asked, "So, what are we doing later?"

"What's the hurry? I'll tell you," he replied.

"But I'm in the hurry to know," she retorted.

"Enjoy the moment once in a while," he said to her and continued to eat.
