Master's Untamed Wife-Chapter 96 - Eat Lunch

From the driving seat of the car, Shui Xian's assistant continued to peek at his boss who was sitting in the back seat. The number of times he looked at his boss had lost count by now.

It had to be said that Ma Jin was a little shocked from the moment he saw Shui Xian today. It was because it was rare for Shui Xian to wear anything else other than his impeccable handmade suits. Today, however, Shui Xian was wearing a black turtleneck with grey pants along with a graphite grey coat.

This was out of the ordinary along with that mark on Shui Xian's bottom lip. It was very faint but from how much attentively Ma Jin had been staring at him, it'd be a wonder if he didn't notice it.

But the first thing in his mind wasn't that someone bit Shui Xian's lip during a kiss perhaps. In fact, he was wondering if his boss got into a fight with someone.

*Screech!*

Shui Xian's body jerked and he glared at Ma Jin through the rearview mirror. Ma Jin gulped as he stabled the car and said, "Master Xian, someone cut the line. It's really not my fault." 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

"Focus on the road!" said Shui Xian. "Don't you have someone waiting for you at home? Even if you don't, I have! So, pay attention!"

Ma Jin was left dumbfounded being scolded like that. He thought to himself, 'I have a girlfriend waiting for him at home, who do you have?'

His phone rang and attended the call before informing Shui Xian, "Master, it's Linda. She's saying your sister is at the office. She says she was hoping to have lunch with you."

"Tell her I have meetings outside of the office today. So, if she wishes to see me, she can just come to my house," replied Shui Xian in his monotonous manner.

Ma Jin informed his words to the secretary on call before hanging up. Shui Xian didn't lie just to avoid meeting his sister, he indeed had meetings all day. Even if he was at the office, he wouldn't be able to meet her, not like he wanted to.

*Ring!*

Shui Xian looked at his own phone and seeing the called id, his eyes instantly went up to see the time. As expected, his wife was really following her schedule well. Her call was right on time. He picked up the call, "How come you're right on time?"

"I'm always on time," came Raelle precise reply.

Ma Jin parked the call and said, "Master, we are here!"

Raelle also heard Ma Jin's voice and asked, "Are you out of the office?"

Shui Xian hummed in reply before he stared at Ma Jin and gestured him to get out of the car. Ma Jin instantly alighted from the car and stood aside respectfully.

"I have a meeting outside," replied Shui Xian.

"Oh..." responded Raelle in understanding.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard another voice from Raelle's side. "Chief, where should I put your lunch?"

"On your head," he heard Raelle's voice and pressed his lips together.

Cloe laughed awkwardly, "That was a nice joke."

"I wasn't joking though," retorted Raelle making Cloe stiffen. Taking Raelle's words seriously, Cloe lifted the bowl of noodles as if she was really gonna put it on her head and Raelle threw a paper ball at her head saying, "Where do I eat my lunch?"

"Anywhere but your desk," replied Cloe.

"So?"

Cloe cleared her throat and took the bowl of noodles away from the desk.

Shui Xian finally spoke up, "Are you gonna have your lunch now?"

"Yes," replied Raelle as she stood up and went over to where Cloe placed her lunch. "Did you eat?"

"Not yet," answered Shui Xian.

"You should," said Raelle. "It's the right time for lunch."

"I have a meeting," Shui Xian repeated himself.

"That means you're planning on skipping your lunch?" questioned Raelle. "That won't do. Skipping meals is not good for health."

"Wife, are you worried about me?" asked Shui Xian in amusement as a smile played on his lips.

"No Hubby, I'm currently trying to emphasize how important it is to eat on time." And that's how Raelle began her detailed lecture on how important food was and how important it was for a human body to eat on time as well.

Shui Xian leaned his head against the windowpane and continued to listen to her attentively with an occasional humming in between to indicate that he was listening. He looked at the time on his watch and realized that she'd been talking for ten minutes and he didn't find it boring.

Only after she stopped talking did he say, "Your lunch is getting cold. Eat well. I'll see you in the evening."

"And your lunch?" she asked again.

Shui Xian chuckled, "Aiyo, wifey, I'm gonna go find myself something to eat as well." 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"Okay then, bye!" She said. "Take a picture of what you eat."

"You need proof?" he asked.

"Yes, I do!" Only then did she hang up the call and Shui Xian was left staring at his phone screen.

It must be because no one ever nagged him about anything, that's why he found her nagging cute. Even though she didn't even realize she was nagging.

Outside the car, Ma Jin was wondering what was taking his boss so long? It had been 20 minutes and he was still on a phone call? Just who was it? As Shui Xian stepped out of the car, he looked heavenward and Ma Jin's eyes widened. First, he was certain he saw a smile on his boss's face. Second, why was there another mark on his boss's neck?

"Master, do you need an ointment?" Shui Xian looked at him with furrowed brows. "For the bug bite," added Ma Jin as he touched the side of his neck.

Shui Xian also placed his hand against the side of his neck and said, "There is no need. We still have ten minutes before the meeting, find me something to eat."

"Huh?" It took him a moment to process his words, "You want to have lunch today?"

"Why? I can't?"

"Please wait inside, I'll arrange it immediately," said Ma Jin before rushing away in horror.
