BXBX NOVEL Chapter 278 I Love You
Tristan didn't know why his so-called Father-in-law aka FaMo was giving him a deathly glare. He knew that he was just waiting for the opportunity to scold him without Zhen-Zhen's knowledge.
Tristan couldn't help but smile. He was safe as long as Zhen-Zhen was with him. His father-in-law didn't dare to scold him in front of her.
This only meant that his so-called father-in-law was aware that Zhen-Zhen loved him and he was very considerate of Zhen-Zhen's feelings toward Tristan.
Tristan was thinking that maybe this was one of the reasons why he was careful and cautious when treating Tristan in front of Zhen-Zhen.
'I think I will get a scolding from my father-in-law when Zhen-Zhen is not around. But what happened? What mistake or sin I committed this time?' Tristan was still wondering about the reason why FaMo was looking daggers at him.
Tristan was still thinking when Zhen-Zhen grabbed his hand and FaMo's hand as she guided them going to the couch.
The three of them sat down on the long couch, Zhen-Zhen was in the middle, Tristan on her right while FaMo on her left side.
He continued telling them what happened during the date except for one awkward and embarrassing moment in the movie theater.
FaMo wanted to scold Tristan and confront him. He was just waiting for Zhen-Zhen to leave them.
Since FaMo was in his human form he also needed to adjust and act like a human. After telling the husband and wife about what happened to Sophia and him, FaMo left them for a while to take a bath first and change his clothes.
Tristan had given FaMo different sets of clothes that he could use every day. Zhen-Zhen's room became his own room now.
Zhen-Zhen and Tristan remained in the living room, watching television. Tristan took this chance to ask her.
"Wifey, am I forgiven already? You don't hate me, do you?"
Zhen-Zhen was leaning her back on his chest while Tristan's one arm was hooked around her waist. She tilted her head so that she could meet his eyes.
"Yes, hubby. I forgive you. Thank you for being honest with me. I know those things happened even before you met me. I'm sorry, I couldn't help but feel upset and jealous.
"My husband is popular. But you are mine now, right? I am your wife and you are my husband. I won't allow the other women to steal you from me." Zhen-Zhen said with her possessiveness.
Trista pulled her body closer and hugged her tight. He chuckled.
"The feeling is mutual, wifey. I will not let other men steal you from me. You are mine. Don't you dare leave me for another man like Liam!" Tristan warned Zhen-Zhen.
He was not able to contain his jealousy towards Liam. He even mentioned his name.
Zhen-Zhen glanced at him with disbelief. She couldn't believe that until now Tristan was jealous of Liam.
Zhen-Zhen turned to face him. Then she cupped Tristan's face.
"You're the only man I want, Tristan. No one will ever replace you in my heart."
Tristan's eyes sparkled with joy upon hearing that. He was touched by those words. He felt relieved now.
But Tristan frowned when he remembered something.
"But, wifey… I didn't hear those words from you. You didn't say you love me." Tristan said, putting on a pitiful face.
Zhen-Zhen blinked her eyes several times, scanning her memory. She bit her lower lip and looked at him apologetically when she realized that Tristan was right.
Afterward, she smiled at him sheepishly, saying "Hubby, sorry about that. But don't be upset. Since they said that action speaks louder than words."
She was trying to appease her husband by saying those words.
Tristan lifted his eyebrow and said, "Still… I wanna hear it from you!"
Zhen-Zhen giggled upon seeing Tristan's adorable expression while pouting his lips and narrowing his eyes.
"Hubby, I love you… Tristan, I love you so much," Zhen-Zhen finally said those three magic words twice.
Tristan's eyes lit up and a glowing smile appeared on his handsome face. Tristan was overjoyed after hearing Zhen-Zhen saying 'I love you' to him.
He immediately planted a soft kiss on her lips. "I love you too, wifey. From now on, you have to respond to me whenever I will tell you those three words, understand?"
Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head with a bright smile.
Tristan pinched her cheeks. Zhen-Zhen was not upset anymore. She was now smiling at him compared to before when she was frowning and glaring at him.
'Will I be able to score tonight?' Tristan thought to himself, grinning mischievously.
Then Zhen-Zhen rubbed her eyes while yawning. She felt sleepy now.
"Hubby, let's go to bed. I have to get up early tomorrow since I will accompany my friend, Sophia, to the parlor."
Tristan just nodded at her. "I will come with you tomorrow."
He stood up and pulled Zhen-Zhen to their bedroom. They had just entered the room when Tristan's phone started ringing.
When he checked his phone, he saw that the caller was Agent Phoenix. He turned to Zhen-Zhen first before answering the call.
"Wifey, go and lie down on the bed. I will just answer this call. I'll be right back." Tristan said before excusing himself.
He went out of the room to answer Agent Phoenix's phone call. He knew this was related to FaMo so he decided to leave their bedroom to talk with him.
He was careful. He didn't want Zhen-Zhen to know that FaMo went missing. She would be sad for sure. That's what Tristan was thinking.
Tristan checked the living room, FaMo aka his Father-in-law was not there. But to be safe, he went outside as he answered his phone. He was waiting for Agent Phoenix's update.
He told him to accomplish the alternative plan by 5:00 pm today but he hadn't heard anything from him.
He pressed the answer button, still wondering what took him so long to contact him.
'It's already late. What happened to him? Is it really difficult to find a cat having a similar appearance as FaMo?'
