Chapter 699 Burrito

Chapter 699 Burrito　　Shui Xian and Raelle were still lost in their two people's world when the door was pushed open and Cui Xukun and Cloe stepped inside. Cloe looked at the scene before her and tactfully turned around while Cui Xukun continued to stare at Shui Xian and Raelle. Cloe had to knock on his head and turn him around.

He rubbed his head where his girlfriend hit him and looked aggrieved as he asked, "Do these two always do this?"

"You have seen nothing yet," whispered Cloe. 

Of course, a hug was really nothing. If only her Chief was a shy person but she wasn't! So, Cloe had chanced upon a lot of stuff she'd rather not see. 

When Shui Xian noticed their presence, he was extremely ruffled. Can't these people just let him spend time with his wife? ALONE!

"What are you doing here?" asked Shui Xian.

Cui Xukun turned around and replied, "I came to check up on Hebe."

"Then go to her," said Shui Xian. "Why follow me here?"

"You forget about that. Tell me what's up with Hebe? Why does she seem... different?"

"How is she different? Isn't she the same Tang Hebe you're familiar with?" asked Shui Xian.

"She is," Cui Xukun agreed. "And that's exactly what's bothering me. How can a person be the same after..." he looked at Shui Xian and went on, "After everything that happened."

"You should just tell him," said Raelle. "He'll have to play his role anyway. After all, he is someone she is familiar with."

Shui Xian sighed, "She lost her memory."

Cui Xukun's eyes widened in shock while Cloe only raised her brow slightly. She seemed to have already expected something like that. 

"Her memory is stuck at the point before our fourth wedding anniversary," added Shui Xian. "Right before we started arguing about the divorce."

Cui Xukun was stumped. "She thinks you both are still married?" Shui Xian hummed in response. Cui Xukun looked at Raelle and asked, "Are you okay, sister-in-law?"

Shui Xian didn't expect his first question to be this and it'd be directed at Raelle. But he was certainly very satisfied with this. 

Surprisingly, even Cui Xukun noticed that Shui Xian's mood improved once he asked that question to Raelle. What the hell! He had been trying to make it up to Shui Xian for so long and it didn't work and he just realized, that all he had to do was suck up to his sister-in-law? 

"I'm not okay," was Raelle's response. "Do you think I'll be okay with someone claiming my husband as hers right in front of me?"

"That was a very dumb question," said Cui Xukun. "I'm sorry about that." He took a pause and added, "But you're not in the best of your health after that incident as well. So, I suggest you do not think about it as well. Why don't you take a rest as well?"

Shui Xian looked at Raelle and nodded, "He is right. I only took you out because you insisted. Now that you've seen Tang Hebe, go to bed and rest. Don't make me repeat myself."

"And if I don't listen?" asked Raelle stubbornly.

"Then I'll pick you up and throw you on this bed," said Shui Xian. It sounded like a threat but his eyes said otherwise.

Raelle boldly tested him, "And then?"

Shui Xian's lips curled up slightly when he noticed what she was up to as he said, "Then I'll roll you up in that blanket."

"Then I'll look like a burrito," she said.

Shui Xian tucked her hair behind her hair as he said in a low voice, "It's okay, I love eating burritos."

"What is wrong with these two?" asked Cui Xukun.

"What's wrong?" asked Cloe in return. "Aren't they acting normal?"

"Is this normal?" asked Cui Xukun in surprise. "They are flirting so openly. That's normal? Don't they care about our feelings?"

"How is your or my feelings any of their concern?" was Cloe's response. "They live in their own world. I'd be worried if these two didn't flirt like this. Now, I can relax. Everything is fine."

Cui Xukun didn't know what to say.

In the end, Shui Xian still put Raelle on the bed and said, "Wait here, I'll bring something for you to eat. You must be hungry by now."

Raelle held his hand, "Come soon."

Shui Xian patted her head, "Be good. I'll be right back."

"Shui Xian," started Cloe. "You can stay here with Chief. I'll bring something for you both to eat."

"It's okay. You should enjoy your weekend," said Shui Xian.

"I insist," said Cloe before she left to get the lunch for them. It's not like she had to buy it. She knew that someone from Xiang Manor will bring the lunch. She just had to call and inquire about it.

"How are you gonna deal with Hebe?" asked Cui Xukun. 

"I don't know," answered Shui Xian honestly. He didn't think about it and he'd rather not. He already had a lot on his mind. He just lost his child, did he really look like he had the feelings to spare for this matter? Because he didn't! 

"Isn't it more important to think about what are we gonna do about Tang Hebe's son?" asked Raelle casually. "Her son had been missing her since last night. It's not like we can keep him in secret for good."

These words struck both Shui Xian and Cui Xukun. They hadn't even thought about it. They both knew Tang Hebe came back with a son but they both seemed to have forgotten about it until Raelle reminded them. Now that they thought about it, this matter was getting more serious and complicated. 

It'd be different if only Tang Hebe was involved but now they couldn't think in the same way. A child was involved. They really were in a difficult position right now because none of them knew what to do. All they could do was hope that Tang Hebe's amnesia was temporary and she'll get better soon or else, it only spelled trouble for all of them.
