Chapter 155 What Flower Do You Like Most?
Tristan and Zhen-Zhen sat down on the bench that was located in the middle of the flower garden. Tristan just finished telling Zhen-Zhen the names of the different flowers in the surroundings.
"Among the flowers here, tell me what do you like most? Then I will pluck those flowers for you," Tristan said to Zhen-Zhen, pointing out the flowers around them.
"Grandpa cherishes this garden so much because of grandma. Will he allow you to pick up some flowers here?" Zhen-Zhen asked him, feeling worried that Grandpa Lu might get angry.
A husky laugh escaped Tristan\'s mouth then he shook his head.
"I don\'t think so. I think grandpa will not mind if I pluck a flower here. Besides, I was the only person allowed by grandma to pick up some flowers here. That was our bonding moments before." Tristan said confidently.
"Hmm I could also see that grandpa likes you more than his own grandson," he added, pretending to be upset.
Zhen-Zhen giggled when she heard that. Then she cupped Tristan\'s face using both hands.
"Hubby, don\'t be jealous. You are grandma\'s apple of the eye. So why not let me be grandpa\'s favorite now? Besides I\'m your wife."
Tristan squinted his eyes at her, "Wifey, when did you become shameless? Who taught you that? You\'re EQ is improving so much lately. Hmm."
Zhen-Zhen\'s soft giggle bubbled up in the garden once again.
"Did you forget, hubby? You\'re my teacher. Why are you still asking me who taught me this? Aren\'t you feel proud of me?"
Tristan couldn\'t believe it. His innocent wife was evolving every day. "Can I bite you? Are you telling me that this hubby of yours is shameless?"
Zhen-Zhen zipped her lips but she bobbed her head as a response to Tristan\'s query. Her blue eyes were sparkling with humor.
"What is that mean? Permission to bite you or you are confirming that I am shameless?" Tristan said exasperatedly while frowning.
"The last one!" Zhen-Zhen stated matter-of-factly.
After getting her answer, Tristan immediately pulled Zhen-Zhen as he bit her on her shoulder.
"See… this proves that my husband is truly shameless… and naughty!" Zhen-Zhen continued teasing Tristan.
"Hmm, I am well-behaved," Tristan defended himself. "Anyway, tell me. What flowers do you like most?"
Zhen-Zhen turned to the left side to look at a certain group of flowers near them. Then she pointed the flower using her forefinger before giving him an answer.
"Tulip… is my favorite flower."
"Hmm, why?" Tristan probed.
"Because it\'s the first flower I received from you." The warm glow of happiness could be seen in her smiling face.
Tristan was dumbfounded for a moment. He didn\'t expect that would be the reason why Zhen-Zhen liked tulip flower. Yeah, he remembered very well. He gave her three white tulips when they were in Oceaniz City.
He felt touched because Zhen-Zhen valued even those simple things he had done for her.
"How about you, hubby? What flower do you like most?" Zhen-Zhen asked him back.
Tristan answered her right away. "Lily." His lips lifted upward, revealing his set of perfectly aligned white teeth.
"Why?" Zhen-Zhen asked him curiously.
"Hmm, Aside from the fact that your second name is Lillie, those Lilies were the reason why I saw the first-ever surprised expression of my sweet Zhen-Zhen and she also became so emotional that day." Tristan paused for a moment, observing every expression she had on her face.
"It was also the first flower I gave to you as my wife on the day we got married." Tristan also said to her meaningfully.
Zhen-Zhen\'s heart swoon at his every word. She felt wonderful after knowing that.
After a while, Tristan stood up, extending his arm to Zhen-Zhen. She put her hand over his palm as she stood up. Tristan held her hand tightly as he gently pulled her towards the tulip flowers. He would pluck some flowers for her.
Tristan gave her another three white tulip flowers. Zhan-Zhen accepted them with delight. She was very happy because Tristan personally picked these flowers for her.
"By the way, wifey, Why did grandpa visit you in the school? What did he say to you? Did he talk to you about us and what happened in Oceaniz City?" Tristan finally brought up the topic of Grandpa Lu\'s motive for seeing Zhen-Zhen and inviting her to the Davis Family Mansion.
Tristan couldn\'t help but frown every time he would think about Grandpa Lu\'s action. He did it behind his back so he knew that his grandpa had hidden motives.
If he didn\'t see how grandpa Lu treated Zhen-Zhen very well during lunch then he would worry that Grandpa Lu might have said something harsh to Zhen-Zhen. He felt relieved when he saw Zhen-Zhen and Grandpa Lu getting along really well.
"He said that he wanted to know me more that\'s why he visited me in the school." Zhen-Zhen simply said to him without planning to elaborate more. She promised Grandpa Lu that she wouldn\'t tell Tristan about the conversation they had in his study.
Tristan nodded his head but he still had a nagging feeling about this. He also wanted to confront his grandpa for what he did. He was really scared to death when he thought Zhen-Zhen suddenly disappeared and went missing.
"Wifey, Let\'s go back inside. Spend time with my Mom. I will just see grandpa and talk to him about something."
Zhen-Zhen just nodded her head in agreement. She was still admiring the flower in her hands. Soon the two of them went inside to see Isabelle and Grandpa Lu.
Isabelle was busy playing with FaMo in the living room. Isabelle told Tristan that his grandpa was taking a nap in his study. Tristan left Zhen-Zhen with his mother before he proceeded to Grandpa Lu\'s study.
Grandpa Lu was leisurely sitting on the sofa while watching the self-portrait of his wife when he heard the knocking sound outside his door.
"Grandpa, it\'s me," Tristan said.
Grandpa Lu had already expected this so he was not surprised when he learned that the person outside was Tristan.
"Come in."
Tristan entered Grandpa Lu\'s study with his serious expression. "Grandpa, we need to talk."
Grandpa Lu smirked at him and responded, "Right timing, my dear grandson. I also want to talk to you about something."
