Shui Xian pressed the head of that drunk man against the wall making him dizzy. But after that wave of dizziness, he also seemed to have awakened from his drunken stupor and looked at Shui Xian with a horrified look in his eyes.

"M-Master Xiang!" he stuttered in fear.

"You're that young master of the Ma family, right? The one who only knows how to drink and play around" said Shui Xian as if he was casually making small talk. But the look on his face said otherwise.

Just looking at his face, the young master of the Ma family felt his body trembling.

"Considering the way you're looking at me, I believe you have heard about me," said Shui Xian. He pulled his hair and made him look straight at him, "And yet you dared to touch what's mine?"

"Master Xian, I was drunk," the man tried to plead. "I made a mistake. Please, forgive me. I'm willing to kowtow before you."

Shui Xian sneered and kicked him away. The man stumbled but before he could fall down, someone held him up. Shui Xian looked at Ma Jin who had come with his two other assistants. The assistants held up the man and didn't dare let him escape.

Shui Xian stepped over and held up that man's hand. "This is the hand that tried to touch my wife?" It actually wasn't a question. "I believe you don't need it anymore." With that being said he held that man's finger and pushed it. The sound of the bones cracking could be heard but none of the people around him showed a surprised expression. It was only the man whose finger was broken who wanted to howl like a dog but Ma Jin had already covered his mouth.

Just like that, Shui Xian broke every single finger of his hand. Of course, he could have broken it all at once or he could have broken his wrist but he didn't think that was painful enough. He wanted him to experience the pain in every single bone of his hand and remember that his wife wasn't someone he could even covet!

With tears and snot running down his face, the man was staring at Shui Xian with unwillingness, resentment, and even fear. Shui Xian slapped his face lightly and repeatedly as he said, "Just because we all fight a bloodless battle in the corporate world, doesn't mean there aren't any casualties. Every one of us has skeletons in our closets. Don't force me to add you into my collections of skeletons."

His warning made the man stunned. It was a reminder that he couldn't fight against Shui Xian. He was nothing before the other person.

"Ma Jin," Shui Xian called out.

"Yes, Master," Ma Jin replied respectfully.

"Send him back to the Ma family and deliver a message to old man Ma. Tell him to put a leash on his son. If can't do it, I don't mind taking over the job."

"Yes, Master," said Ma Jin and dragged the man away.

Shui Xian watched them leave and looked down at his hand. Tsking to himself, he went back to the bathroom and washed his hands. Not just once but three times as if he touched something disgusting. Then he looked up at his reflection and paused. Closing his eyes, he took deep breaths and calmed himself down. And when he opened his eyes, he was back to being the calm Shui Xian that everyone was familiar with.

When he said that he had been easygoing lately, he wasn't lying. The last time he had beaten someone like that was when he was trying to solidify his position in the business circle. There was no shortage of scheming and jealousy in business. He was also young when he started from scratch with his father. He was naive and had even fallen into someone's trap. It was only then his father told him that soft-hearted people had no place in the corporate world. He had to become ruthless.

However, he hadn't even been this angry when he had fallen into someone's trap. Today, he was really angry when he saw that man trying to touch Raelle. He knew how much Raelle disliked strangers touching her. And he had always tried to make sure nothing made her feel uneasy. How could let just any pesky fly come and annoy his wife?

He came down and sat down in the car that had been waiting for him. Although they both came separately, they both were definitely gonna go back together. So, Raelle was already waiting for him inside his car since she let her own chauffeur drive Cloe back home.historical

When he settled inside, Raelle turned her head to look at his face carefully. Shui Xian stiffened for a moment under her gaze. He didn't even dare turn his head to look into her eyes. His hands clenched into fists. He didn't even know why he was feeling this way. Why was he so nervous?

Maybe because it was the very first time he acted in such a way before Raelle so he wasn't sure if she was okay with this side of him or not.

Not a single reaction of his could escape Raelle's sharp eyes. Even if it was a bit dim inside the car, it couldn't stop her eyes from noticing how his body had stiffened. She found it quite interesting.

"My delicate wife isn't really that delicate, eh." Raelle's voice rang out in the quiet space of the car making Shui Xian stunned. He whipped his head to look at her as she continued, "This overbearing CEO certainly likes this feisty side of my Cinderella!"

Shui Xian's jaw almost dropped at her comment. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Certainly, he was the one who called her 'the overbearing CEO' earlier and he had called himself the 'Cinderella' aka 'the delicate wife'. But why did it sound so different when she said it?

He pursed his lips and suddenly burst out laughing.
