It was around lunchtime when Raelle and Shui Xian came down. Surprisingly, everyone was waiting in the living room which surprised Raelle. She thought no one would be around but the sneaky smiles made her realize that they purposely had been waiting for her.
Of course, when else would they get a chance again to tease her about coming out of her room at lunchtime? That was the first one and chances of that happening again were very minor, especially with these people around.
Because they'd all be living in their own homes once they go back so even if she really got wrecked all night by Shui Xian and couldn't get up on time, no one would know.
"Our newlyweds are here!" exclaimed Hyson excitedly. "Give them a round of applause!"
Raelle threw a glance at everyone who actually raised their hands to applause and that one glance made them drop their hands back down. They avoided her eyes instantly and Raelle was quite satisfied with their reaction.
Hyson tsked at them all for having no guts at all. "Stop scaring people."
"I did no such thing," replied Raelle. "What are you all doing here though? Don't you have anything else to do? Opa, even you are here?"
Grandfather Xiang rubbed his nose saying, "I only came out for lunch."
Raelle didn't expose him right now and said, "Then let's go and have lunch. I'm famished."
"Last night must have been rough."
"Wanna repeat that, Major?"
Xiang Wai shook her head, "No. I'm fine."
"I think our Major is waiting for you to serve tea to your father-in-law," said Hyson loudly and earned a glare from Xiang Wai.
"Traitor!"
"There is such a thing too?" Raelle widened her eyes and then said, "But I don't need a gift."
"No, this is non-refundable!" said Shui Xian as he took out a document from his side. "Tada!"
"Really, Bà?" asked Shui Xian as he saw his father acting like this.
Shui Koshing ignored his son and gave the document to Raelle, "This is the island that my father gave to me. Now, I'm giving it to you."
Raelle looked at the document that he put in her hands and then looked at Shui Xian who smiled softly and nodded his head to tell her to accept it.
"This..."
"Don't overthink things," said Shui Xian. "I have one and so does Amiah. Although we both got it from our Mom."
Only then did Raelle accept the documents and thank Shui Koshing, "There was really no need for this though?"
"Why is there no need? What am I gonna do with this island? I don't even go there. You are young, you should find time to travel around more."
"You are also still young and should travel around too," said Raelle.
"I agree so that's why I have decided to go on a cruise."
"Shing Ge, are you going on a cruise?" questioned Mu Chenyan in surprise. "I have never taken a long cruise too. Zhao, let's go too." Yue Yue raised her hand and Mu Chenyan nodded, "Yes, yes. How can I forget you? You are coming as well!" But then she froze and looked at Grandfather Xiang.
"I won't go," said Grandfather Xiang. "If I am around, you won't have any fun. You should go."
"How can I leave you behind?"
"I'm with grandpa," said Xiang Weimin. "It's gonna take me a long while to get back to my post. So, I have time to take care of Grandpa. Aunt, you should go."
