Chapter 126 She's My Wife!
Before Matthew could stop her, Zhen-Zhen already traced her steps towards Tristan in a hurry. Her blue eyes filled with concern for Tristan.
Everyone fell silent the moment they saw a lovely maiden who suddenly appeared beside Tristan. They were dazzled by her breathtaking and mesmerizing beauty.
Just like that, everyone\'s attention was caught by the stunning lady in red. Even Mark and Daniel as well as the twins were starstruck when they saw her.
All eyes were on Zhen-Zhen, everyone was watching her, asking themselves where did this goddess of beauty come from and what\'s her name.
She held Tristan\'s elbow as she gazed up, giving Tristan a worried look and questioning gaze.
"Tristan?" She called his name out softly.
Tristan was taken aback when he heard that familiar voice. He lowered his gaze to see Zhen-Zhen. His angry expression a while ago suddenly disappeared upon meeting her gaze. Her eyes became gentle.
\'Eh, where\'s Matthew? Why is it he let Zhen-Zhen come to me? I said to him that he should guard her.\' Tristan thought to himself.
On impulse, Tristan pulled Zhen-Zhen closer to him, hiding her in his back. His protective instinct urged Tristan to shield her against the reporters and the other people inside.
At that certain moment, Grandpa Lu, Tristan\'s parents, Hannah\'s parents, Andrew and Hannah reached their spot. A surprise expression was written all over their faces upon seeing Zhen-Zhen who was being protected by Tristan.
Hannah and Andrew were both utterly astounded. They didn\'t expect that Tristan would bring Lillie tonight.
Grandpa Lu was about to speak and call the attention of Tristan when suddenly they heard the soft mellow voice of Zhen-Zhen, amidst the silence of the crowd.
"Is everything okay… hubby?" Zhen-Zhen mumbled, asking Tristan with her concerned voice.
Grandpa Lu: "..."
Hannah: "..."
Andrew: "..."
Tristan\'s parents: "..."
Hannah\'s parents: "..."
Cousins: "..."
Everyone: "???"
That simple sentence coming from Zhen-Zhen was enough to bring a great shocking effect to everyone who was listening. Since she showed up, Zhen-Zhen never failed to give them one shock after another.
\'What did she say?\'
\'Did I hear it right?\'
\'I\'m not mistaken, right? I definitely heard the word… hubby!\'
\'Wait? What did she mean by hubby? Hubby as in husband?\'
Everyone had different thoughts in their minds after hearing Zhen-Zhen\'s last word. They hadn\'t recovered yet from that shock when Tristan spoke up to respond at her query.
"Yes, don\'t worry. Everything is okay, wifey." Tristan softly said while holding her hand with his. He gave Zhen-Zhen a reassuring smile.
Silence.
There was a moment of a complete silence. It was deafening and lasted for a few seconds.
Everyone\'s eyes widened in surprise and disbelief. They couldn\'t believe it. Tristan called her \'wifey\'. Their gaze darted back and forth between Zhen-Zhen and Tristan.
They watched the entangled hands of Zhen-Zhen and Tristan with their slacked-jaw and unblinking expressions. Then the deafening silence was replaced by murmuring and whispering around the hall.
"Oh my gosh! I remember her! It\'s her! Ms. Lillie Meyer!" One of the reporters reacted. She suddenly exclaimed in excitement as she recognized Zhen-Zhen.
Everyone looked in the direction of the reporter who suddenly spoke up. They were wondering how she knew her name. Now they learned that the goddess of beauty in front of them was Lillie Meyers. That\'s her name.
"Oh, Miss Lillie! I\'m Dahlia? Can you still remember me? We met just a few weeks ago. You and Mr. Davies were having a date and we bumped into each other in the University of Imperial Knights." Dahlia spoke up spontaneously as she was glad to see Zhen-Zhen once again.
She was the reporter who tried to get Tristan\'s statement at the University of Imperial Knights. She was also with Iris at that time. But Zhen-Zhen and Tristan ran away from them.
"Oh, it\'s you. Good to see u again, Miss Dahlia." Zhen-Zhen greeted her back with a friendly smile.
Dahlia couldn\'t help but smile. Zhen-Zhen was very friendly and approachable. Now, she understood why Tristan and Zhen-Zhen looked very sweet and affectionate together. It turned out they were going steady.
On the other hand, Grandpa Lu, Tristan, and Andrew\'s parents as well as Hannah\'s parents couldn\'t believe that the lady in red who called Tristan hubby and whom Tristan called wifey was Lillie, the girl who tried to seduce Andrew.
This was the first time they saw Lillie face to face. They couldn\'t deny the fact that she was very beautiful and gorgeous. They couldn\'t figure out what was happening here.
Were Tristan and Lillie playing a trick here? Why is it they called each other hubby and wifey?
Aside from them, there were two people who were greatly affected by this event. They were Andrew and Hannah. Lillie\'s presence bothered them a lot. Their good mood a while ago was long gone.
They also wanted to know what\'s the real score between Lillie and Tristan. The couple looked at Zhen-Zhen and Tristan suspiciously. They were thinking that the two of them were just trying to create a show here to ruin their engagement.
Meanwhile, those reporters who were talking about Tristan\'s scandal a while ago had found another interesting news tonight. They were now curious about Tristan\'s relationship with the lovely maiden whose name was Lillie Meyer.
"Mr. Davies and Miss Lillie, is it true? Are you two a married couple now?"
"Why do you call each other wifey and hubby?"
"What is your relationship with each other?"
"Miss Lillie, are you his new girlfriend?"
"Where did you meet each other?"
"We didn\'t hear about your marriage? Are hubby and wifey just your endearment?"
The reporters became more energetic once again, throwing them so many questions. Tristan became more protective of her. He pulled her closer, wrapping his arms around her and hiding her in his chest.
"Please let us pass!" Tristan said with his stern cold voice. He didn\'t want them to bother Zhen-Zhen just like what they did to him a while ago.
"Please answer us, Mr. Davies." Most of the reporters kept on insisting. They wanted an answer from him.
Tristan was almost losing his patience so he shouted. "YES! She\'s My Wife! Now I gave you my answer. So let us pass! Don\'t block our way!"
