Master's Untamed Wife

1020 [Bonus chapter] Pure Intentions

The rest of the time, Zhai Kuijun was actually in a very complicated mood. For days, he was trying to figure out what he felt for Yue Yue just as Zhai Yanjun had asked him to. And to be very honest, Zhai Kuijun realized on the very first day that he wasn’t repulsive or resistant to the idea of being with Yue Yue. In fact, he was actually a little happy.

After all, he knew she understood him very well. And after everything, he really needed an understanding partner. All other feelings were things of the future. It was understanding that he really wanted in his partner now.

But before Yue Yue came into the picture, he wasn’t even thinking about having another partner. He got a divorce after such a long fight, he didn’t feel like he’d ever want to be married again but now, here he was again. But if the partner was Yue Yue then he wasn’t all that dismissive of the idea of marriage.

However, at the same time, he didn’t dare to speak about it or make his ideas obvious. Especially at times like these when he heard about how difficult it had been for her to give birth to Hyson or raise him all on her own. Even while dealing with the rejection she felt from the whole world. And how she lost her voice and fell into depression. He knew so little. Who knew how exactly that time had been for her?

He felt like he couldn’t even raise his head to face her properly because he knew he was also the reason for everything. How could he even think about asking for anything from her when he didn’t even offer her anything at all?

Yue Yue clicked her fingers before his eyes to get his attention and when he snapped back to reality and looked at her face right in front of his eyes, he was taken aback. She raised her brows at him questioning him about what was up. He shook his head in response.

Yue Yue gave him a suspicious look and then went back to her work. After 22-25 minutes she took out the cream puffs from the oven and placed them on the counter to let them cool down before using the whipping cream filling.

When she was filling the cream puffs, another person came over, “Yue, how are you?” f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

Yue Yue looked up at Shui Koshing and gave him a sweet smile in response.

.....

“Ohh... What do we have here? Cream puffs?” He walked over and wanted to pick one up but Yue Yue held his hand and gave him a look. “My hands are clean.” She didn’t budge so he went to wash his hands again and came back hurriedly. This time, she didn’t stop him and picked up the small cream puff with his hand to taste it. “Mmm... This is good.”

“Eat less sugar. You might get diabetes at this age,” came Zhai Kuijun’s bitter remark.

Shui Koshing looked around and not once his eyes settled on Zhai Kuijun as he asked Yue Yue, “Yue, did you hear something? I feel like there is a fly in the kitchen. You should pay attention to these things.”

“Koshing!” Zhai Kuijun stood up from his seat to glare at Shui Koshing.

“What? What can you do?” After saying that, he even turned to Yue Yue, “Look, he is glaring at me.”

Yue Yue was suddenly at a loss when she saw them acting like kids. How old were they again? Could they please act a little more maturely? It was really spicy to her eyes to see them acting this way. She rarely saw their interactions even when they were young so she didn’t know what kind of a relationship they shared but she actually thought it’d be good considering how their fathers’ were best of friends but it seemed she was very wrong.

Being the peace-loving person, Yue Yue stepped up and stopped them from getting into a fight as she asked Shui Koshing, ‘Ge, you are free today?’

Shui Koshing immediately looked away from Zhai Kuijun, not paying any attention to him as he informed Yue Yue gently, “My son is finally at work. I can have rest. My daughter-in-law said I shouldn’t be working so hard. What’s the point of raising a son if he isn’t even gonna work?”

Yue Yue chuckled silently to herself as she agreed, ‘That’s something Raelle would say. But she actually let her husband leave her side? That’s a surprise.’

“When it comes to working, she is very serious,” informed Shui Koshing. “What are you doing though? I though Chenyan left you at home to rest?”

‘I was free as well but suddenly thought of making cream puffs for everyone. I’m sending some to Yanjun. How about I send some to Xian as well?’

“There is no need to go through this trouble,” said Shui Koshing.

‘How is it trouble? I already baked so many cream puffs.’

When Shui Koshing looked at the counter filled with cream puffs, he had to say she baked a lot. “Then I have no opinion. You should ask Xian’s wife. I’ve stopped caring about my son since he got married.”

Yue Yue shook her head but still agreed that she should ask Raelle so she went to look for her leaving Zhai Kuijun and Shui Koshing staring at each other. Shui Koshing took another cream puff to eat while staring at Zhai Kuijun and said, “Aren’t you coming over way too much lately?”

“How do you know? It’s the first time I ran into you here,” said Zhai Kuijun.

“Just because I’m not here doesn’t mean I know nothing,” was Shui Koshing’s response. “You’re hovering around our Yue, what’s your intention? I don’t think you have any pure intentions.”

“What’s that got to do with you?” retorted Zhai Kuijun feeling irked by Shui Koshing’s protective and interrogative stance. It really made him seem like the guilty party here.
