Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 130 - Dangerous Toys



Zhai Yanjun stared at Shui Xian before turning his gaze towards Raelle whose attention was still on the interesting 'toy' in her hands.

"This..." Zhai Yanjun didn't know what to say. He couldn't be rude to her. She was not only Shui Xian's wife, she was also Xiang Tianyu's precious granddaughter. Besides, he didn't have a habit of talking rudely to women. "That's not a toy."

"I know," replied Raelle. "It's Glock 17 Gen 4 pistol. Much lighter than its predecessor, the Browning pistol. And even the accuracy is much higher." She took out the loaded magazine and showed it to him saying, "See, even the magazine capacity is 17 x 9mm rounds compared to the 13 rounds of Browning pistol."

Zhai Yanjun was gawking at her now speechlessly. After laughing speechlessly, he pointed out, "You definitely know your stuff, Miss Raelle." He took a pause before adding, "I assume, you've played with these dangerous toys before?"

Raelle put the magazine in, stood up, and pointed the gun at his forehead as she asked blandly, "Guess!"

He wanted to snatch the gun from her hand. He didn't think she was playing around. Something about her was making him feel uneasy. He really wanted to know how Shui Xian was seemingly so calm with a wife like this around.

"If you guessed it wrong, there will be a penalty," she added.

Zhai Yanjun narrowed his eyes at her, "Penalty?"

Raelle slowly gave him a nod, "I'll make you jump in this river."

"You really hold grudges," said Zhai Yanjun. "I already apologized for not showing up at that blind date."

"Raelle Xiang doesn't have a habit of holding grudges. If I have an issue with you, rather than waiting for an opportunity, I'll just strike." She gave him a look, "And right now, I do have an issue with you."

"What did I do?" asked Zhai Yanjun. "Don't tell me it's because I ruined your romantic date night!"

"You made my Yanyan upset," she stated calmly.

Only then did it click in Shui Xian's mind. During the dinner, when Yanjun's name was brought up, Mu Chenyan was indeed upset. And even though Raelle was focused on eating, she had noted that down in her memory.

"I don't like people who make my people frown in displeasure," Raelle added. And the way she said 'my people' made Shui Xian wonder if he was a part of that now.

Zhai Yanjun couldn't use force on her and didn't want to take a risk with her either as he calmly told her, "Don't shoot. I'll have to write a report for each bullet. So, don't shoot!" He then looked at Shui Xian asking for help.

Shui Xian finally sighed out and said, "Wife, give the gun back to him."

Raelle looked at Shui Xian for a while in silence before she threw the gun back at Zhai Yanjun who caught it swiftly. He didn't even have to say it twice and she obediently gave the gun back to Zhai Yanjun. To say Zhai Yanjun was shocked would be an understatement. How long did these two even know each other? What the hell was wrong with this spark of chemistry flying between them?

"For your information, this was my first time holding a real gun," said Raelle. "Anything that remotely comes close to the word, 'dangerous' has always been kept away from me."

"Then how do you know about the gun in detail?" inquired Zhai Yanjun and he couldn't even hide his surprise from showing in his voice and from his face as well.

"If one has an interest, one can find anything," replied Raelle. "Just because I have never held a gun before doesn't mean that I don't have the theoretical knowledge about it."

Zhai Yanjun leaned close to Shui Xian as he whispered, "Your wife is a surprise box."

"I know," replied Shui Xian.

Zhai Yanjun heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Raelle saying, "I'll find time to go and apologize to your family members for what I did. I'll try my best to appease them." Raelle didn't say anything in reply and he took a pause to add, "Oh, and since you're so interested in guns. How about coming to the shooting range? I'll be the tour guide for you."

That idea actually caught Raelle's interest as she said, "I'll think about it."

Zhai Yanjun smiled in satisfaction as he said, "That's good. Now, I'm really leaving. My grandpa must be waiting for me." With that, he really rushed out of there. Not because he wanted to get lost but because he really couldn't delay in delivering the order in his hands.

After he left, Shui Xian took Raelle on a walk around Lantern Street. "Asking Yanjun to jump into the river in this season isn't really considered punishment." Raelle faced him as he added, "He is used to swimming in ice-cold water in winters during training. This would be nothing to him."

"I know that," replied Raelle. "I just wanted to see how he will take his gun back."

Shui Xian shook his head at her, "He would never use force on you." Raelle blinked at him as he went on, "He might be in the military but he doesn't depend on his fists. If he can get out of a situation with negotiation, he will try his best to do so."

"He seems close to his grandparents," said Raelle.

"He is," replied Shui Xian. "Yanjun was raised by his grandparents. And they dote on their one and only grandson. Likewise, he loves the elderly couple as well. In fact, he has always wanted to find a love like theirs. I think it's his bad luck that he got tangled up with a stubborn girlfriend." After realizing something, Shui Xian frowned at her, "Why are you curious about him?"

"Not him," replied Raelle. "His grandfather is my Opa's best friend. His stories from his early days always involved his best friend, Zhai Feiyang. But I have never met him in person."

Shui Xian finally relaxed after hearing that before he touched the bridge of her nose like he usually did and said, "Next time, don't play around with guns. Even if you've studied a lot about them, it's different from the real thing. Practical is always different than theory."

Raelle neither agreed nor refused his words. She just silently listened to him. As for what was on her mind at the moment, that was hard to tell. Because from her eyes, one would think she wasn't thinking about anything at all.
