Chapter 193: Queen Of Master Xian's Life

While Raelle's words might have crashed Cloe's brain system, it certainly made a wide grin to make its way to Shui Xian's face. And when Ma Jin's eyes suddenly fell on that smiling face, his eyes went round, and instinctively he stepped hard on the brakes.

*Screech!*

The sudden brakes made everyone inside jolt a little. Shui Xian's hand went up to protect Raelle's head but it wasn't even necessary. When Raelle noticed his palm right before her eyes, she tilted her head to look at his worried face.

"Ma Jin!" Shui Xian's voice was low and it felt like he was suppressing some strong emotions. 

Ma Jin was taken aback by that tone of his voice. Master Xian always spoke in a monotonous tone. And even then one could feel the pressure. But now that his emotions were leaking out through his voice, one could imagine the cold sweat that drenched Ma Jin's back.

"I'm sorry, Master Xian! It was my fault! I'm extremely sorry!" 

Shui Xian had opened his mouth to say something when he felt something on his hand. He turned his eyes and paused. When he raised his hand to protect Raelle's head, there was still some distance between his hand and her forehead but currently, Raelle had intentionally leaned her head over and placed her forehead against his hand. And that move alone was enough to make Master Xian forget where he was or what he was about to do.

"Forget it!" he threw out these words at Ma Jin and didn't want to pursue this matter any longer. 

It'd only waste his time. The same time that he could spend with his precious wife. So why would he waste his wife's time on other people? 

Because of this small incident, Cloe's brain system came online again and she looked around. "Oh, this is where I get off." Saying that she hurriedly alighted down from the car.

As she walked away, Ma Jin's eyes fell on something and he said, "Master Xian, Miss Cloe forgot her purse." Shui Xian also looked at the purse that was still in the car. 

"She is finally drunk," said Raelle.

It had been over an hour since Cloe drank so the alcohol was finally kicking in her late processing internal system. It's just as Raelle said, her reactions were always delayed. And tonight was no different. Or it could be said that tonight's shocks might have stimulated the alcohol effect.

"Should I bring it to her?" asked Ma Jin cautiously.

"Give it to me," said Shui Xian. "I'll send it to her myself."

He didn't take that decision on impulse, it was because his dear wife had taken out a water bottle from the mini-fridge and placed it in his hand. She said nothing but he could tell what she wanted. 

He took the purse and the water bottle as he followed Cloe. Behind him, Ma Jin was left gaping at his boss in disbelief. First, his boss was being friendly to President Raelle. And now he was caring for President Raelle's assistant? Just who was his Master Xian interested in? Whether it was President Raelle or Miss Cloe? This seemed to be the biggest question on Ma Jin's mind this evening.

As Shui Xian approached Cloe from behind, he was about to call out to her when he heard her saying, "Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! I have such a limited curse vocabulary that I can't even use another curse word! But man, FUCK! Raelle Xiang and Master Xian? Am I too drunk? The world is going round and round and round. My expressionless queen is actually Ice Master's wife? What is wrong with this world?"

*Cough!*

Shui Xian intentionally coughed behind her and Cloe was startled to the point that she lost her footing. Just when she closed her eyes and waited for the impact, it didn't come. Instead, she was held by a pair of arms. Cloe opened her eyes and seeing that Shui Xian held her, her soul almost flew away, "You! Let go!"

"You'll fall," said Shui Xian like it wasn't obvious enough.

"That'd be better than falling in hands of Raelle Xiang."

Shui Xian pulled her up and let her go with a gentlemanly smile on his face, "My wife isn't that unreasonable."

Cloe almost lost herself in that smile. No wonder she said he was her idol. Ice Master looked even better with a smile and that too up close! She hates to admit it but no one could match this handsome man better than her gorgeous boss. Their good looks complemented each other perfectly.

She sneered, "Are you sure we are talking about the same person? The Raelle Xiang I know of isn't unreasonable but she is still unreasonable in her own way. Her reasonable logic is enough to make her sound unreasonable. And I seem to say gibberish now that doesn't make sense at all. This is no not how I wanted to meet Ice Master Xian. Oh my gosh! I can't stop myself now. This drunk mouth is chattering away as always."

She said so much in one breath that even Shui Xian was afraid that she might stop breathing. She took a long breath while Shui Xian made her sit down at the side. He even opened the bottle of water and offered it to her, "Here, drink some water and catch your breath. Also, you forgot your purse."

Cloe took both things from his hand with an embarrassed smile, she was about to open her mouth with a silly smile when she slapped her own mouth shut. She didn't trust her mouth right now. It was gonna get her in trouble if she didn't stop talking right now.

Shui Xian noticed her action and his smile deepened, "By the way, I forgot to say." Cloe looked up at him as he continued, "You aren't that drunk yet. That expressionless queen is indeed also the queen of this Ice Master's home and life."

Cloe gasped at his words as she stared at him without even blinking.

"Also, the world is already round. Otherwise, how could after going in circles, our fates still ended up being intertwined? So, it isn't just a twist of fate that she is my wife, it is also a beautiful destiny of ours." He took a pause to add, "I have heard a lot about you and it certainly was quite an experience meeting you in person. I'm glad she has someone like you around her. And thank you for taking care of my wife. Now, I should be taking my leave."

Cloe raised her hand and waved at his back with her mind reeling from his words. Even when he got inside his car, Cloe could still recall his words. Especially...

'That expressionless queen is indeed also the queen of this Ice Master's home and life.'

'Queen of Ice Master Xian's home.'

'Queen of Master Xian's life.'

As those words echoed in her mind, Cloe's mind heated up along with her face that flushed deeply. She hurriedly gulped down the whole botter of cold water to get her feverish mind to work again. 

Her heart felt so happy just knowing that Raelle actually had such a place in Xian's life. She couldn't describe what it felt like. But she was certain she felt touched. Her heart warmed up at the thought that Raelle had found such a life partner. It almost made her feel like crying as if she just saw her own little sister growing up and finding her happiness. It felt too good to describe in words.

At this moment, just a small distance away from her, someone was looking in her direction with a complicated gaze. He had seen the interaction between Shui Xian and Cloe clearly even though he could hear anything, the interaction was quite eye-catching.

Shui Xian not only held Cloe in his arms, but he also talked so nicely with her. And when Shui Xian was talking about his wife, his eyes had naturally shown the infatuated look that could be seen by even a blind person. But from the third person's perspective, all of this could be misunderstood greatly.

Especially since Cloe's face flushed when he left. This was such a startling scene for the man that he was left standing frozen at his place.

"Kun, why didn't you just come inside?"

Only when someone placed a hand on his shoulder did he come back to the world and turned his head to look at his elder sister.

"Jiejie[1], I just saw Xian," replied Cui Xukun.

"Here?" His elder sister's brows raised up as she looked around. "Why would he come here?"

Cui Xukun looked at Cloe intently, "I also want to know what was he doing here."

When he met Shui Xian last time, he honestly didn't believe his old friend's words that he had a woman in his life but now... Now, he was a little uncertain.

[1] 'Jiejie': In case you don't know, Jiejie means elder sister. But it doesn't necessarily mean blood-related sister.
