The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

'Fool! I'm not hungry! Let's go to your wife now, you moron! I'm afraid that your Hannah is making her sad once again! I'm gonna roast both of you if Zhen-Zhen will cry again because of you and Hannah!'

FaMo bit the tip of Tristan's slack, signaling him to follow him and go to the garden where Zhen-Zhen and Hannah were currently talking.

But Tristan didn't get it. "Hey FaMo, That's my pants, not a food. Are you really hungry?"

FaMo who was losing his patience bit Tristan's leg for real.

"Ouch!" Tristan grunted.

That's the time Isabelle came back after talking to her husband, Lucas.

"Oh, what's wrong, son?" Isabelle asked him the moment she saw Tristan leaning over to get FaMo.

"It's FaMo, Mom! He is suddenly acting very weird. He bit me. He thinks of me as food." 

Then Tristan turned to FaMo. He was now carrying him in his arms. "Stop thinking about food, FaMo. You're becoming fatter each day. You are an obese cat now. You should go diet."

FaMo could only shake his head. He wondered if there would be a day that he and Tristan would be getting along well. He was easily annoyed by this man.

'Forget it! I'm gonna go and check Zhen-Zhen alone.'

With that thought in mind, FaMo started struggling in Tristan's hand.

"Son, I think FaMo wants to go somewhere. He's not hungry," Isabelle suddenly blurted out when she saw FaMo struggling to escape from Tristan's grasp.

When Tristan heard that, Zhen-Zhen's beautiful face popped up in his mind. "Oh right, did you see Lillie, Mom? I think FaMo wants to go to her."

FaMo heaved a sigh of relief, finally, Tristan had figured out what he wanted to do.

"I left them here when I called your father. Maybe she went outside together with Hannah."

Tristan nodded his head. Andrew was here so he was not surprised that Hannah was also here. After a few seconds, FaMo moved again in his arm, signaling him to put him down.

"Alright, FaMo, we will find Zhen-Zhen and go to her. Do you know where she is?" Tristan said while releasing FaMo.

FaMo moved his head towards the direction of the garden, then he started to walk outside. 

"Mom, I'll be back. Will just go to my wife." Tristan said before following FaMo behind. 

'It seems that FaMo knows where Zhen-Zhen is.' Tristan thought to himself, feeling amused as he watched FaMo's back.

It did not take long when Tristan saw two silhouettes in the veranda near the flower garden. Now, he was certain that Zhen-Zhen and Hannah were together. 

He wondered if the two of them were talking about what happened in Oceaniz City. He hoped that the two women would reconcile also. 

That reminded him he needed to talk to Andrew and apologize to him. He recalled that he punched his brother so hard although everything was his fault.

Tristan was about to greet the two women when he noticed that something was off with Zhen-Zhen. Hannah was looking at the flower garden, that's why she didn't notice Zhen-Zhen's reaction. 

FaMo leaped towards Zhen-Zhen. She was still closing her eyes when she felt FaMo's movement under her feet.

'Zhen-Zhen, are you okay?' FaMo's voice was heard in her subconscious.

'FaMo…"

Zhen-Zhen felt helpless as FaMo's concerned voice resonated in her mind. She badly needed someone to comfort her now. Zhen-Zhen did not notice but a single tear already flowed down her cheek and dripped from her chin.

That was the scene Tristan had witnessed the moment he reached their spot. He had no idea what's going on. Hannah was no longer speaking and she's not paying attention to Zhen-Zhen.

'Did the two of them fight? Why is Zhen-Zhen crying?' Tristan felt alarmed. He immediately dashed towards her direction.

Tristan didn't want to see her cry. As much as possible, he wanted to see her smile, not like this. Upon closing their distance, Tristan cupped her face right away, caressing her cheeks while wiping her tears.

When she felt his warmth and smelled his familiar scent, Zhen-Zhen opened her teary eyes.

"Tristan…" Zhen-Zhen murmured his name.

"Hey, why are you crying?" Tristan asked her anxiously.

Hannah turned around the moment she heard Tristan's voice. She didn't notice his arrival. Hannah immediately frowned when she saw Tristan's worried expression and Zhen-Zhen's sad expression.

She was rendered speechless. She eyed Zhen-Zhen with disbelief. Hannah clenched her fists as she looked daggers at Zhen-Zhen.

'What's wrong with her? Is she playing a victim here to get Tristan's sympathy? Why is she acting pitiful in front of him? What if Tristan will misunderstand it? I didn't do anything to her!' 

Her hatred towards Zhen-Zhen intensified. She thought Lillie was framing her so that Tristan would get mad at her.

Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen didn't answer Tristan's question, instead, she asked him something.

"Tristan, what flower do you like most? Lily or Tulip?" Zhen-Zhen asked him out of the blue. Her voice sounded desperate. She needed to know badly.

'Huh? Flower? Why is she asking me this again? I told her already.' Tristan thought to himself.

Hannah, on the other hand, squinted her eyes at Zhen-Zhen. She didn't know what she was trying to do by asking Tristan that question.

'Does she hate the fact that Tristan and I like the same flower? This girl is unbelievable. I knew it! She has two faces. That's why I don't like her.'

Zhen-Zhen was looking at Tristan expectantly, anticipating his answer.

"I already told you. Did you forget? It's a Lily flower." Tristan finally responded.

"How about Tulip? Don't you like it too?" Zhen-Zhen asked again.

Oblivious to the reason why Zhen-Zhen was asking her these questions, Tristan just gave her an honest answer.

"Hmm, I like Lily. But I also like Tulip."

Hannah's lips twitched into a triumphant smile when she heard that. She was looking at Zhen-Zhen as if she was saying 'I told you so. He likes Tulip.'

Zhen-Zhen's mood became more sullen. Tristan didn't know what to do. Did he say something wrong?

"Hey, what's wrong. Please don't give me that kind of sad look."

"You said you like Lily but you like Tulip as well. Can't you just choose only one?" Zhen-Zhen mumbled while feeling down.

Tristan looked at her helplessly. He didn't know why his wife was acting like this. What made her upset?

FaMo was already glaring at Tristan. If he would fail to cheer Zhen-Zhen up then FaMo had already decided to give Tristan his most frightening nightmare tonight as his punishment. 

"Of course, I like Lily the most. But I also like Tulip because it's your favorite flower. Remember? You just told me it's your favorite flower so I should like it too." Tristan softly said while explaining to her.

"Is that true?" Zhen-Zhen asked him again like she was a child asking someone for comfort.

"Yes, it's true. I'm not gonna lie to my wife," Tristan said with certainty.

"I heard you were very fond of the Tulip flower when you were still young. Why did you like tulip before?"

Tristan couldn't help letting out a soft chuckle. He found Zhen-Zhen's curiosity and persistence very cute.

Tristan sighed deeply. He was still cupping her face. His hazel eyes met her blue eyes. Without breaking their eye contact, Tristan answered her last question.

"Because grandma Cassie like Tulips so I came to like it when I was young."

"So you like Tulip because of Grandma Cassie, not because of other reasons?" Zhen-Zhen probed again.

"Yes… it's because of grandma. And now, I like it because my wife likes it too. Are you satisfied now with my answer? Please don't be sad wifey. I don't want to see you sad." Tristan said, caressing her face.

Tristan had already forgotten Hannah's presence because his attention was focused on Zhen-Zhen. He was busy comforting her.

Zhen-Zhen's mood changed immediately when she heard that from Tristan. She believed him. He said it while looking straight into her eyes. He's not lying.

Zhen-Zhen's bright smile returned to her face. Her gloomy expression was long gone. Then she pounced on Tristan, hugging him tightly.

The heaviness in her heart a while ago was lifted. She thought Tristan lied to her when he said she liked lily flower. She thought Tristan liked the tulip because of Hannah. She was glad that Grandma Cassie was the real reason Tristan was fond of tulip.

The triumphant smile on Hannah's face a while ago suddenly disappeared as she witnessed this sweet interaction between the husband and wife. She also felt like she was slapped on the face when she heard Tristan's answer.
