Chapter 1065: Still Won't Leave

Chapter 1065: Still Won't Leave"How long is it gonna take?" asked Raelle for the umpteenth time today. She only realized now why Mu Chenyan said they didn't even have enough time to get ready. She was getting a whole spa treatment from Mu Chenyan.          

Right now, Mu Chenyan was styling her hair as she said, "It's almost done. Don't be in a hurry."    

At moments like these, one could really see how multi-talented Mu Chenyan was. All for the sake of providing comfort to Raelle.    

"I don't know why but today, my mind is recalling the old times," Mu Chenyan suddenly brought up the topic. "Remember, you're only three and I took you to a salon but you refused to let anyone touch you there except for me. Sigh. How would you remember, you were so young back then." Mu Chenyan smiled to herself as she remembered these old memories that had been kept very close to her heart all this while. She couldn't seem to forget the adorable little girl that Raelle was.      

Adorable even with her blank face.      

Back then, Mu Chenyan actually didn't mind Raelle's blank face all that much. After all, no matter what Raelle still looked like a cutie with her pinchable cheeks.    

"And then you took the scissors to cut my hair," added Raelle. "I looked like a dog chewed on my hair."    

Mu Chenyan coughed unnaturally. "It was my first time doing it. Why do you not forget that? Whenever I talk about the first haircut I gave you, you just have to ruin my nostalgic journey with that one comment."    

"I'm sorry but I can't forget it," replied Raelle. "You'll have to bear with me because I'm gonna keep reminding you of that incident till the end of time."    

Mu Chenyan sighed helplessly, "Okay, go ahead! Do whatever you want."    

"These words of yours hadn't changed over the year," said Raelle. "You used to tell me to do whatever I want back then and you're telling me to do the same even now."    

"It's because I have faith in my Elle," was Mu Chenyan's response. "I know that whatever you do will be the right thing. I can make the wrong choices but not you."    

"This blind faith of yours is the reason I despise troublesome things. Who asked you to make my life easier than it was necessary? If you had let me compromise early on, I wouldn't have to trouble you with everything."    

Mu Chenyan chuckled, "Compromise? Nah! I, Mu Chenyan don't have such a word in my dictionary. But life really taught me its meaning with time. That's why I was damn sure I was never gonna let you compromise in life." She took a pause as she looked at the top of Raelle's head. "But I think I still failed a little. My Elle had to learn about compromise early on when she was making her career choices."    

"You're wrong," said Raelle. "What I did was not compromise. It was making better life choices."    

Mu Chenyan shook her head slightly at that. She turned around the chair to look at Raelle and nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, you're done!"    

"Really?"      

"Wait."    

"What now?"    

"I forgot your heels," said Mu Chenyan sheepishly.    

"You go and get ready," said Raelle. "I'll find the heels myself. Just go now. Stop wasting time."    

"Alright, alright. I'm going. Geez! I can't believe you're throwing me out once the job is done."    

"Yanyan."    

Mu Chenyan smiled at her and wanted to stroke her cheek but she couldn't ruin the make-up. Then she wanted to touch her head but couldn't because of the hairstyle. Finally, her hand landed on Raelle's shoulder as she said, "My baby is looking so dazzling that I'm afraid people will die of envy." Raelle just stared at her gushing but didn't respond. "Maybe I should cut off the lights in the banquet hall.  You're so gorgeous. I'm sure you'll alone be able to lighten up the world."    

"Can you stop exaggerating?" asked Raelle.      

"Who is exaggerating? I'm telling the truth."        

"Yanyan, you're still here."    

Mu Chenyan sighed and left the room reluctantly.      

Raelle unknowingly took a deep breath when she saw that Mu Chenyan finally left. It was truly baffling how Mu Chenyan could spend hours just gushing over her. Raelle looked at her reflection in the mirror and nodded her head in satisfaction. She agreed that she looked beautiful but she didn't think it was necessary for Mu Chenyan to keep talking about it for hours.    

She looked at the time and saw that it was almost 7 hours since she last met Shui Xian. Oh, she hadn't even heard his voice since this morning. That was something rare.      

She suddenly had the urge to actually know what he was doing.      

And she even took out her phone but suddenly recalling how she asked him to cultivate patience today, she decided to take that advice seriously. This was a good way to teach him a lesson so that he could never tell her the same ever again.      

"If you wanna call, just call," came a voice from behind her. "When did you become so indecisive?"    

Raelle put down her phone and turned her head to look behind her. Seeing Hyson waving at her with his bright toothy grin, Raelle turned back her head.      

Hyson walked around and sat right in front of her and waved at her again but when she didn't respond yet again, he gaped at her in disbelief.    

"Ellie, do you need a doctor for your eyes?" asked Hyson. "Oh my! You really can't see me? I'm so tall and handsome! How can you possibly not see me here?"    

"I don't think I need to see you," replied Raelle.    

"Am I being dethroned?" asked Hyson in shock. "You're actually gonna act like you don't see me? I am no longer important? It should be friends over sex. Not the other way around."    

Raelle gave him a look, "Scram!"    

Hyson stuck his tongue out at her, "Today, even if you kick me out, I still won't leave!"
