Master's Untamed Wife

Lin Zhen stayed true to his words. He urged the others to arrive as soon as possible. And since this nagging 'mother' was the one ordering around, none of the other three dared to laze around anymore.

They all arrived at the Shui Villa with Lin Zhen taking the lead. As they entered the driveway, Fang Yiwen couldn't help saying, "This is a huge villa."

Pei Zi Hong unconsciously looked at Lin Zhen who also looked back at him. Pei Zi Hong opened his mouth and asked, "It's Shui Villa. Are you sure this is the location sent by Fai?"

"This is the one," came Huang Shuyi's voice. "There is no mistake."

"There is indeed no mistake," added Lin Zhen with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Is this the same Shui family I have in mind or it's a different person with the same name?" inquired Pei Zi Hong.

"No, I believe it's the one you're thinking about," replied Lin Zhen.

Pei Zi Hong sucked in a cold breath. "Fai isn't a simple person."

"Did you just figure that out?" asked Lin Zhen.

"Why are you both wasting time at the door?" Huang Shuyi stepped in to question. "Are we going in or not? No matter who is Fai, at the end of the day, he is our little cute brother. Does it really matter which family or background he belongs to?"

Fang Yiwen patted his shoulder as he said, "Even though our lazy bone talk rarely, he always hits the mark. I completely agree with him. Whoever Fai is, he is still one of us."

"Well, then let's no focus on this anymore," Lin Zhen breathed out a sigh and rang the doorbell.

The door opened and the housekeeper welcomed them all. They were led to the lounge where Hyson was already waiting for them with Shui Koshing.

"Oh, you all are finally here?" asked Hyson as he stood up to look at them with an accusing gaze as if blaming them for being so late.

Lin Zhen placed a fruit basket at the table saying, "We got some things for you."

Hyson looked at the fruits basket, a box of chocolate, a gift box, cake, and many more things that these four carried for him. He wasn't really that sick now. And even if he was, did they have to bring so much for him?

"What's the need for all of this?" asked Hyson.

"We couldn't just..."

Before Pei Zi Hong could say anything, Hyson interrupted him, "Let's not use the same excuse again that you couldn't possibly come to see me empty-handed. We have known each other for 8 years, is there still a need for such formalities."

"Well..." They didn't know what to say.

Hyson was actually surprised that this group of people was acting so well-behaved today. They didn't jump on him. They didn't barrage him with questions. They looked so well-mannered and polite that it made Hyson feel a little uncomfortable. This was completely different from what was going on in the group chat earlier. And now they were suddenly so exceptionally good?

Hyson frowned at their behavior and then introduced them to Shui Koshing, "I almost forgot to introduce you guys. This is my Uncle Shing. And he is the one who has organized the dinner for us tonight."

Shui Koshing was amused by Hyson's words. Clearly, it was his family's daughter-in-law who planned everything and he only gave instructions to make sure the plan is followed accordingly. How come he became the one with all the credit? But then again, since the daughter-in-law was from his family, he'd just shameless take this credit.

Shui Koshing greeted them all with a polite and gentle smile. He looked like a gentle old man. There was a good vibe around him that made people relaxed. And Huang Shuyi and Fang Yiwen actually got a good impression of him and even enthusiastically greeted him.

It was just for Pei Zi Hong and Lin Zhen, it was difficult to relax around Shui Koshing since they were familiar with the identity of Shui Koshing. So what if he retired early? He was Shui Koshing! Even after separating from the huge Shui family, he stood tall and above others. He was a person respected and feared in the elite circle.

And since he retired, it was even more difficult to meet Shui Koshing since he liked to spend time in seclusion. Who knew they'd end up meeting him here?

Shui Koshing noticed the restrained behavior of Lin Zhen and Pei Zi Hong and chose to smile at them politely as he said, "There is no need to be so distant. Consider it your own house. You all are Yue Fai's friends and that makes you all a special guest of my family." He took a pause as he directed them to sit and added, "I'd like to take this as an opportunity to express my gratitude towards all of you. I've heard how much you cared for Yue Fai. So, thank you so much for taking care of him all these years."

Hyson felt embarrassed all of a sudden. The way Shui Koshing said it felt like he was an elder who wanted to thank his son's friends who had taken care of him all this time. Hyson actually liked this feeling. He liked it a lot.

"Mr. Shui, you don't have to say it," said Lin Zhen.

"You can just call me Uncle Shing like Yue Fai does," said Shui Koshing.

Lin Zhen felt a little strange.

"Zhen Ge, you're acting like my Uncle Shing is gonna bite you," joked Hyson. "Relax! He is very easy-going."

Lin Zhen thought only Hyson could say that Shui Koshing was easy-going. He couldn't associate this older man with a mild person.

"Fai, where is your mom?" asked Fang Yiwen completely letting loose himself. "You've always said your mom is the most beautiful in the world. But we have never seen her. I was thinking since we are coming to see you at your place, we'd get to see her today?"

Hyson smiled at Fang Yiwen which wasn't like a smile at all as he told him, "My mum is not here. I knew you're insisting on coming to visit my home because you want to see my mum. That's why I came to Uncle Shing's place before calling you over."

"This isn't where your mum is?" asked Fang Yiwen looking quite disappointed.

"No, she is next door," answered Hyson.

"I didn't know there was a hidden plot here," said Shui Koshing. "And here I thought our Yue Fai just wanted to introduce his Uncle Shing to his friends."

Hyson looked at Shui Koshing, "Who said I didn't want to? But I didn't think you'd manage to scare them like this."

"What did I do?" asked Shui Koshing incredulously. He had long lost his intimidating aura. He couldn't tell why these young men would feel awkward around him.

But he was forgetting that no matter how he acted now, it won't change the fact that he was Shui Koshing. He had a reputation that made people revered him and now, he even had an exceptional son whose reputation even overshadowed his own.

Shui Koshing joked with these young men before he went to check up on the arrangements for dinner. That's when Pei Zi Hong commented, "Fai, you're really like a golden prince."

Hyson's brows knitted up, "What did I do? I told you I'm a simple person."

"Yeah, right!" snorted Lin Zhen.

"You all have to believe me, I just know way too many extraordinary people. But I'm very ordinary myself," Hyson still insisted on this point.

"You have never been ordinary," said Huang Shuyi. "If you were, you wouldn't be a part of our group. From a thousand trainees, we five were chosen to become a member of 'Fantasy.' I don't think that's counted as ordinary."

Hyson grinned, "Yi Ge, that means all of us are special. Not just me." He looked at Lin Zhen and asked, "Zhen Ge, you also know Uncle Shing? I can understand Zi Hong Ge since he is a second-generation rich guy. But I didn't think you'd be familiar with Uncle Shing as well."

"I have always paid attention to Finance magazines. It might be difficult to see his son's photo in those magazines. But he isn't the same. He is Shui Koshing. Master Xian's father."

Hyson scratched his head as he thought to himself how he never thought about Shui Koshing like that. For him, he was just Raelle's father-in-law, Shui Xian's father. And now, he was also somehow related to his own mother. So he never took Shui Koshing's status into account.

But this thing could also be blamed on Raelle. Since in all these years, he had never even taken her status into account. She might be a big shot for the world, but she was just his Ellie. One he could tease, annoy, throw his jacket at, make her buy ice cream for him, and much more.

He didn't know why people had to consider so much when meeting others.
