It's Cold

Shui Xian was caught off-guard by Hyson's statement. When did he become a beauty? Was it even right to describe him as 'beauty'?

Raelle placed her hand over Hyson's eyes as she said, "That's my beauty! And you're not allowed to look!"

Hyson pursed his lips to hold back his laughter. "Sharing is caring."

"Good thing, I'm not a caring person," replied Raelle.

Hyson tried to move her hand away from his eyes as he said, "At least let me look. I know you don't like people touching your things but what's wrong with seeing?"

"I don't like people eyeing my things either. Humans are devious creatures, you never know what is hidden behind one look," retorted Raelle in her ever so flat tone. She moved her hand away from his eyes but held his face as she forced him to look at her instead. "Why do I think you have a crush on my husband?"

Hyson grinned, "I told you last time, I do have a crush on your husband. How about you give him up?"

"Not happening!"

Hyson burst out laughing at her response. It was really fun to annoy her. Hyson pinched her cheeks saying, "Look at me. Where else will you find a friend like me? I'm caring, cute, generous, loving, funny, smart, and I even listen to all your nonsense. My advice to you is, 'Don't ever lose me!'"

Raelle swatted his hands away from her cheeks as she said, "I've been telling you to get lost for years, and yet you're here. How can I lose you at this rate?"

"How mean!" he made a face at her before turning to Shui Xian. "Master Xian must be wondering what has he gotten himself into."

Shui Xian offered him a polite smile while Raelle finally thought of introducing them, "Hubby, meet my self-proclaimed best friend, Yue Fai. But you can call him Hyson."

"What do you mean by self-proclaimed? I am your best friend! There is no way you can deny it!"

Raelle didn't even look at him as she continued to tell Shui Xian, "Fair warning! He can be super loud." Then she turned to Hyson and asked the same question as earlier, "But seriously, why did you show up wearing that? What was the point of disturbing me early in the morning if, in the end, you're gonna wear this?"

Hyson leaned back in his chair with a profound look as he said, "At first, I thought I should show up in my best attire for you. But then my roommate said, why bother? I should always stay true to myself."

"If you had decided on staying true to yourself, why didn't you just come out in your favorite SpongeBob shorts?"

Hyson's lips twitched at her words but he still said, "It's cold outside!" He suddenly had a look of enlightenment as he took her phone from the table. "I suddenly recalled why I had my phone in my hands in the first place." He searched for something on the internet and showed her the screen, "Let's go to Country J next time. I want to see this."

Raelle looked at the cute and tiny bird on the screen. The name read, 'Shima enaga.'

"You want to make a long trip just to see a bird?" She snatched her phone from him as she continued, "Did you leave your brain at home tonight?"

Hyson scowled at her, "Yeah! Didn't I just say? It's cold outside. I was afraid my brain would catch a cold so I let it stay at home to stay warm and cozy."

While Raelle continued to stare at him blankly, Shui Xian couldn't hold back his laughter. He tried to cover it with a cough but it was too obvious. Both Raelle and Hyson looked at him. "Don't mind me. Please, continue!"

He really meant it. He really wanted these two to continue. There was finally someone who could talk to his wife neck and neck. It was truly amusing. No matter what Raelle said, Hyson had a reply.

Hyson cleared his throat, "This has been going on for over a decade now. So, nevermind!" He took a pause before adding, "But it's my first time meeting Master Xian in person. I'm honored"

"I should be the one saying it. I'm here to have dinner with a celebrity."

Hyson rubbed the nape of his neck as he said, "Well, you're more of a celebrity around here." He looked at Shui Xian as he continued, "Your fan following is bigger than mine."

Shui Xian didn't take his words seriously as he waved his hand to call the waiter saying, "We should eat something first. I'm sure you must be hungry by now."

The other two had no objections to that. The waiter passed the menus to each of them as he stood at a side respectfully. While Shui Xian and Hyson were carefully deciding what to eat. Raelle and already started pointing randomly, "I'll have this and this. Also, this one!"

The waiter was noting down the order when Hyson snatched the menu from her hand and gave it back to the waiter. "You let it be. I'll order something for you myself." Raelle shrugged her shoulders and turned her head to look outside the window again. Seeing how Shui Xian looked at them, Hyson explained it for him, "She just doesn't care about what she is eating so she tends to choose her menu blindly. Next time, make sure you're the one ordering for her as well."

Shui Xian mentally noted it down. He heard from Raelle that she didn't have a favorite food, but he didn't think she was so careless about the taste of her food. It was just as he thought before if she said she liked everything, then most certainly it meant she liked nothing at all.

Shui Xian gave his order while Hyson chose the food for himself and for Raelle as well. And he did it very naturally as well. It didn't look like he was doing it for the first time because after all, he had been doing it for years now.

After they were done, Shui Xian voiced out, "You look very familiar. It must be because you're a celebrity."

"Are you saying you've seen me around?" Shui Xian nodded his head. Although he wasn't interested in celebrities, he still felt like he had seen Hyson around. He just couldn't recall where. Hyson chuckled at him, "I'd be sad if you say it like that."
