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

"Because Tristan was the first person who treated me so well aside from my parents. He is a good man. He accepted me for who I am." Zhen-Zhen said to Grandpa Lu meaningfully.

Grandpa Lu was at a loss for words when he heard her sincere response. She said that while looking straight into his eyes. He could also see the glow of happiness in her eyes.

By her expression alone, Grandpa Lu was satisfied with her honest answer. Her response was direct and simple, with no flowering words. She didn't say directly that she loved him but her eyes were telling Grandpa Lu that Tristan was very special to her.

'Did my grandson find a hidden gem like her in Mt. Calypso? Is Lillie the person I'm looking for who can change my grandson? Someone who will help Tristan to move one and turn his back on his bad habits with women.' Grandpa Lu thought to himself.

Grandpa Lu was in deep thought when something popped up in his mind.

'Wait… Is Lillie aware of my grandson's bad reputation with women? Did she know that her husband is a womanizer? What if she didn't know yet? Will she change her heart?' Grandpa Lu's eyes widened at that thought.

Grandpa Lu suddenly became worried about his grandson, Tristan. Now he was in a dilemma. "Should I ask her if she knows? No. I shouldn't. What if she doesn't know and I suddenly ask her then I will be revealing my grandson's dark sides to her. Hmmm. I think I should talk to my Grandson about this. He should be the one to tell Lillie.'

"Grandpa? Is everything okay?" Zhen-Zhen asked Grandpa since he didn't say anything after she was done answering him. It looked like Grandpa Lu's mind was very occupied by something.

Grandpa Lu cleared his throat once again as he faced Lillie. He didn't mean to keep spacing out in front of her. It's just that he couldn't help it. Some thoughts were bothering him. And those were Tristan's fault.

"Sorry about that Lillie. Forgive this old man. Sometimes I would feel distracted."

Zhen-Zhen let out a soft giggle before saying, "Grandpa, can you stop apologizing? You didn't do anything wrong. I'm just worried that I said something that you didn't like, that's why you became silent."

Grandpa Lu gave her a faint smile before shaking his head. "No, you didn't."

After saying that, Grandpa Lu continued asking Zhen-Zhen about Tristan and her.

"Lillie, I know what happened in Oceaniz City. Tristan brought you with him during his business trip. Tristan already explained everything to us but I want to know your personal point of view. I'm dying to know why did you do it? Why did you seduce Andrew?"

This question was one of those questions Grandpa Lu wanted to have an answer coming from Lillie, herself. He knew that Tristan was taking all the blame and he wanted to defend Lillie. Now, Grandpa Lu wanted to know her reason for doing that.

Zhen-Zhen lowered her gaze for a few seconds. She felt guilty for what she had done. She knew that what she did was wrong. She was thinking she made that mess so she should face it and accept her mistake.

She didn't know if Grandpa Lu was mad at her because of that but she hoped that he would not hate her. After a while, she gazed up to meet Grandpa Lu's eyes.

With her soft mellow voice, she said to him, "Grandpa, I'm really sorry. It was a big mistake on my part. I shouldn't have done that. I did it without considering the consequences. All I wanted to do was to make Tristan happy. I thought by doing that I could make him happy but grandpa I was wrong." Zhen-Zhen's bright expression a while ago was already gone.

Ï'm really sorry, grandpa. I hope you will not hate me because of that. From now on, I will be careful with my action. I will not make a reckless decision that will make someone unhappy. I apologized to Andrew. All I need to do now is to apologize to Hannah."

Lillie felt like crying. Just thinking that Grandpa Lu would hate her was troubling her so much. After spending some time with grandpa Lu, she came to like him a lot. She wanted to be close to him.

Meanwhile, Grandpa Lu could feel the helplessness in her voice. Her saddened expression was telling him that she was admitting her mistake and she really regretted it. Grandpa Lu felt guilty as he felt like he was the reason she became sad.

Grandpa Lu didn't expect that he would end up consoling her granddaughter-in-law. He couldn't bear to see her sad. He was used to seeing her smiling brightly and cheerfully.

"Lillie, don't be sad. This grandpa is not mad at you. I just want to know your reason. I don't hate you. Cheer up. Or else this old man would feel bad for making you sad." Grandpa Lu said while patting Lillie's back.

Zhen-Zhen bit her lower lip, fighting the urge to cry. Now she wanted to cry because she felt touched by Grandpa Lu's last remarks. He was also being kind to her despite what she did.

"Hey, hey, hey, Don't cry." Grandpa Lu began to panic when he saw Zhen-Zhen's teary eyes.

'D@mn?! What should I do? What should I do? I didn't mean to make her cry. I'm just asking a question here.' Grandpa Lu lamented to himself. He felt helpless. He was freaking out on his seat as he didn't know what to do.

Left with no choice, Grandpa Lu suddenly made a funny face in front of Zhen-Zhen to make her laugh. He stuck his tongue out while holding his two ears as he crossed his eyes. He also moved his head from left to right and vice versa. He looked like a grandpa trying to make his five-year-old granddaughter laugh.

Zhen-Zhen who was about to cry suddenly stopped while eyeing Grandpa Lu in confusion. She blinked several times. After a few seconds, a soft giggle bubbled up in the study. Zhen-Zhen started laughing while holding her stomach.

Grandpa Lu felt relieved when he saw her laughing. He just let her recover first from her laughter before he spoke up.

"Lillie, you should laugh more often. Don't be sad and don't cry. You will look ugly." Grandpa Lu said after Zhen-Zhen finally stopped laughing.

"Grandpa, Thank you. You made me laugh. You're so cute a while ago." Zhen-Zhen promptly responded.

Grandpa Lu tried his best to hide his embarrassment. Now, he turned back to his usual self as if he did not do that funny action a while ago.

No one would have thought that the mighty Chairman of the Heavenly Star Enterprise and the Patriarch of the Davis Family would do that hilarious and funny act just to make his granddaughter-in-law laugh and to stop her from crying.

"Let me give you some advice, Lillie," Grandpa Lu said, changing the topic.

Zhen-Zhen nodded her head. She was now all ears on Grandpa Lu.

"I know you did that because Tristan made a stupid request when he was drunk. Don't follow every word he will say. You are his wife, he should be the one following your words and satisfy your needs. Between husband and wife, the wife is the real big boss. Just like your Grandma Cassie, she's my big boss and I'm her loyal follower."

"One more thing, Lillie… don't do that again to any man. You should seduce your husband, Tristan, instead!" Grandpa Lu said with so much conviction.

'So that I can have my great-grandchild right away. Hahaha!' He added to his thoughts. Then a sly smirk appeared on Grandpa Lu's aged face.

Zhen-Zhen, who was oblivious of Grandpa Lu's real intention for saying those last words, just looked at him in confusion. She was still processing every word Grandpa Lu had said to her.

She was thinking that Grandpa Lu's statement was quite opposite to Tristan's explanation when she asked him about the meaning of 'wife'.

'Eh, why is it Grandpa Lu and Tristan are saying different things? Tristan said a wife should listen always to her husband and make him happy. But Grandpa Lu was telling me the other way around. The wife is the real boss? And the husband should be the one to satisfy his wife's needs?'

Zhen-Zhen was having conflicting thoughts right now. She wanted to believe Tristan as well as Grandpa Lu. But they had different opinions.

"Lillie, did you hear me? Did you understand what I had just said?" Grandpa Lu asked her when she remained silent.

Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head as a response before she raised her confusion. "Grandpa, can I say something?"

Grandpa Lu let out a soft chuckle. "Yes, of course. You can!"

"I'm just confused because Tristan told me a different thing. He said a wife should follow and always listen to her husband's request and wishes."

"WHAT?! Did he tell you that?!"
