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

« At University of Imperial Knights »

After talking to her English Professor, Zhen-Zhen proceeded right away to the guidance counselor's office where the person who wanted to see her was waiting. Unknown to her, that person was none other than Grandpa Lu.

The guidance counselor of the university was Grandpa Lu's friend that's why he decided to wait for Zhen-Zhen in his friend's office. Besides, Grandpa Lu would leave immediately once Zhen-Zhen arrived. He would talk to her in a different place.

It did not take long when Zhen-Zhen entered the guidance counselor's office. She was surprised to see Granpa Lu sitting on a large sofa. Grandpa Lu was staring at the door so he noticed Zhen-Zhen's arrival right away.

Their eyes met, Zhen-Zhen wearing her startled expression while Grandpa Lu maintained his poker face, hiding his emotions from her. But in his mind, Grandpa Lu wanted to tell her, 'Surprise, granddaughter-in-law! You're grandpa-in-law came here personally just to see you!'

Zhen-Zhen's startled expression was replaced by a cheerful one as she flashed her charming smile to Grandpa Lu. She immediately walked over to approach and greet him.

"Good morning, Grandpa! How are you? I'm glad to see you here." Zhen-Zhen greeted him enthusiastically.

Grandpa Lu stood up to invite her to sit down but he was surprised when Zhen-Zhen suddenly gave him a quick hug. Grandpa Lu was taken aback by her action.

He didn't expect that she would initiate to hug him. Most of the young members of the Davis Family were reluctant to do that because they felt intimidated by Grandpa Lu's aura. He might look scary or grumpy sometimes but Grandpa Lu had soft spots and sweet sides too.

When he gazed at Zhen-Zhen, he saw her genuinely smiling at him. He could tell that she was not faking it. From his years of experience, dealing with different people, Grandpa Lu could tell if one person was just pretending or not or if they had hidden motives or not. That's the reason why he could tell that she didn't do that just to impress him.

Cough! Cough!

Grandpa Lu cleared his throat as he regained his composure once again.

"Lillie, I know today is your first day of class. I would like to apologize if you couldn't attend the rest of your remaining class today because of me. I came here because I wanted to see you and talk to you. We had no chance to speak with each other during the engagement party." Grandpa Lu apologized and explained to Zhen-Zhen the reason why he was there.

He told her directly as he didn't want to beat around the bush.

"It's alright, grandpa. I understand. You don't have to apologize to me. I'm so glad that you came to see me here. But I'm worried if I gave you a hassle because of that. You should have told Tristan so that we can come to you instead. I don't want you to get tired because of traveling." Zhen-Zhen politely said to him with concern in her voice.

"The young ones should be the one to pay a visit with the elders," Zhen-Zhen's added.

Grandpa Lu's lips twitched after hearing that. He was trying his best to hold his laughter. He appreciated her concern for him. But telling Tristan about this meeting was the one he wanted to avoid.

Grandpa Lu was afraid that Tristan would warn Lillie of what she should tell and what she should not tell him. He knew that his grandson didn't anticipate this meet-up to happen right away. So he believed that Tristan had not warned Lillie yet.

He wanted to see if Lillie would be honest with him or not. Besides, he had ways to find out if Lillie was lying.

He could see through a person's behavior and gesture whether he or she was telling the truth or not. That's one of grandpa Lu's expertise.

But only his grandson, Tristan could trick him sometimes just like what he did in the engagement party. Or maybe grandpa Lu was really happy about his marriage that he just let his grandson off with his lame excuse.

"Oh, don't worry Lillie. This old man is still healthy and strong enough to go wherever he wants." Grandpa Lu said, boasting at her a little bit.

Zhen-Zhen couldn't help but giggle. Grandpa Lu looked at her confusedly. He didn't know why she suddenly laughed.

'Did I say something funny?'

Grandpa Lu raised his brow and asked her inquisitively, "Hey, young one. Why did you laugh? Don't tell me you didn't believe what I had just said to you? Are you thinking that I'm lying?"

Zhen-Zhen shook her head as a response. "No, grandpa. I believe you. It's just that, you sounded like Tristan a while ago when you were boasting."

Zhen-Zhen giggled once again after saying those words.

Grandpa Lu: "..."

Grandpa Lu didn't know whether to cry or laugh. This granddaughter-in-law just compared him to his grandson.

'And what? Did she just tell me that I am boasting? I'm just stating a fact! Hmm, but I like her frankness.' Grandpa Lu thought to himself.

Cough! Cough!

Grandpa Lu cleared his throat once again to hide his embarrassment. Who wouldn't feel embarrassed? Zhen-Zhen just told him that he was boasting a while ago.

"Anyway, Lillie, are you alright if I will invite you today to come with me? I want to get to know more about you. You are my grandson's wife so it's natural that this grandpa wanted to know you." Grandpa Lu explained to her. He didn't want to scare her.

He could understand if Lillie would be reluctant to come with him. To be nervous while facing her in-laws was just a natural reaction.

But to his surprise, Lillie's blue eyes brightened up the moment she heard that. She didn't look nervous at all. He didn't even see the hesitation in her eyes. Instead, Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head vigorously, her sparkling blue eyes filled with joy and excitement.

"Yes, grandpa! I'm definitely alright with that! I also want to know you more as well as the other members of Tristan's family. Thank you, grandpa, for giving me this chance." Zhen-Zhen couldn't hide her happiness.

Grandpa Lu was rendered speechless. This girl was giving him reactions different from what he had expected.

"Alright, then I will bring you to the Davis Family Mansion."
