Chapter 951: Got Sick

The next day, Hyson left and so did Amiah. But obviously, they both went separately. Shui Koshing still had to go to work. At home, only Raelle and Shui Xian were left.

Raelle was watching a documentary on the tv while Shui Xian sat on a side with a goofy smile. From time to time, Raelle would look his way and find him holding the guitar keychain she gifted him. He had already put all his keys into it and was now carrying it around. And when she asked, he replied that he had nowhere to go, so he decided to carry it inside the house.

Raelle just let him be. It wasn't the first time he was acting like this. She should be used to it by now.

"Baby, I'm going down to make lunch for you."

Raelle looked at him, "Why? There are so many people working in this house. Are you paying them to be lazy?"

Shui Xian kissed the top of her head saying, "I'll make them prepare the ingredients. I'll just be responsible for cooking. I feel like doing it."

Raelle watched him leave and went back to watching the documentary. She had no problem seeing the snakes' survival and hunt strategies being shown in front of her. Her eyes only moved when her phone rang.

She picked it up and looked at the number displayed on the screen. Of course, she didn't save this number but she was familiar with whose number it was.

"Hello!"

"It's me," said the person on the other side.

"I know," replied Raelle.

"I just saw your message," replied Song Xin'ai. "I'm sorry for taking too long."

"Were you ignoring my message on purpose?" asked Raelle.

"No, that's not it. My phone was in the locker. I had been staying inside the lab these days," said Song Xin'ai.

"Then there is no need for apology. I knew it'll take you a while to get back to me when I texted you. I should apologize for contacting you out of nowhere."

"You can contact me whenever you want to," said Song Xin'ai. "But I believe you won't do unless you have to. So, there must be something you have to talk to me about?"

"I have something to ask you," replied Raelle. "Do you think we can meet?"

Song Xin'ai pressed her lips together and was eager to say yes but looking around when she noticed where she was, she couldn't agree in such a hurry.

"There is no need to meet right now," said Raelle. "I meant can we meet when you have time?"

"I'm actually in another state at the moment," told Song Xin'ai honestly. "Can't tell you more about it in detail because of confidentiality but I think I'll be done within a week. Is it something urgent? If you're in a hurry we can talk over the phone?"

"No, it's something I have to talk about this in person."

Song Xin'ai was happy to hear that. She was more than happy to meet in person and talk. "Then I'll text you when I'm back?"

"Sure," replied Raelle. "Just leave me a message. You can decide the meeting location and time. I'll show up."

"Hmm..." Song Xin'ai hummed in response. She waited for a moment before asking, "Did you get discharged from the hospital?"

"Yes, I'm home now," said Raelle.

"Don't mind me saying this but have plenty of rest. Don't be in a hurry to get back to work."

"Do you think my wish to go back to work immediately will work? I have a lot of people keeping an eye on me."

Song Xin'ai smiled softly when she heard that, "Right. It's good there are people. Then I'm hanging up now if there is nothing else."

"Okay, bye!"

"Bye!"

She hung up and noticed that Shui Xian was back, "What's up? Are you done already?"

"No matter how fast I am, I can't possibly finish cooking in fifteen minutes," said Shui Xian.

"Then why are you back already?"

"Yanyan called, she asked us to go over for lunch," told Shui Xian. "She is worried about your diet. I feel like she is actually planning on making you stay over there entirely so she can keep an eye on you."

"Trust me, she doesn't have that much time, or else, it won't be your turn to keep me company."

Shui Xian pursed his lips. He also knew that. He went to hug her as he said, "So, who do you want to stay with? Me or Yanyan?"

"Are you seriously asking me that question right now?" asked Raelle.

"I am," he replied. "So, what's the answer? You better think carefully before answering."

"Childish," remarked Raelle as she stood up and dragged him up. "Let's go over."

Shui Xian sighed and helplessly followed her. Even he knew it was childish to ask that question but he couldn't help it. He really needed to stop being like this.

When they went over, they found that the house seemed a bit depressing. "What's going on?"

Xiang Weimin answered for her, "Wai is sick."

"What? Wasn't she fine last night? She even had the time to be lovey-dovey with her secret boyfriend," said Shui Xian.

Seeing Xiang Weimin's gaze, Shui Xian shut up.

Xiang Weimin sighed, "She doesn't fall sick so easily but every time she does, it happens because of her own mind. Let's say she brought it on herself." He should have known it. How could Xiang Wai be okay with knowing that secret? Now, there must be a lot going on within her and she must have decided to keep it a secret but that wasn't easy for her. In the end, she ended up falling sick from all that thinking.

He didn't know whether to cry or laugh at his sister right now.

There was no other Xiang Wai in the world. Definitely, he was the one who got such unique sisters. Neither of them was cute but both were bizarre to the max! But being the elder brother, he could only love them and accept them for who they were. Who made him their elder brother?
