I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband

Chapter 183 The only one thats pretty before my eyes

Country J, Blue City...

Zaki was a bit troubled the moment they arrived at the country. Well, it was because he actually failed to delay their arrival due to Sei’s extreme impatience. He was way too excited to finally reached home that nothing could even distract him anymore.

Ahh... what should I do? What should I do with this human being? Brain... think about something before it’s too late... think, damn it...

Forcing himself to think about something useful, Zaki bumped his forehead on the car’s window as he stared outside. Well, Zaki was actually asked by Davi to make sure that they should arrive at the Gray mansion only after dusk, for the sake of her surprise plan. So Zaki of course promised her to leave it to him. Not knowing that Sei’s impatience was strong enough that nothing could even make him delay anymore. And in the end, everything that Zaki did was completely futile and worse was that the sun was still shining proudly above.

Oh, sun... can’t you just quickly die just for today? Let the night come quick...

As the car kept moving closer towards their destination, Zaki could only cry without tears the moment he looked at his wrist watch. Well, they’re actually about two hours earlier than planned.

Young miss... I’m sorry. This partner-in-crime of yours is truly useless today. It’s impossible for me to handle your husband at this state of his, I can’t even make him delay a single minute, he’s j...

Just as Zaki started chanting his apologies within him, a certain life saver idea appeared before his eyes. His eyes turned wide the moment he saw a gift shop along the road, thus, without wasting anymore time, he turned towards the quiet man who never even said a single word yet since they left Country H.

"Hey Sei. Won’t you even buy some gift or a souvenir for your wife? Your wife must’ve been expecting you to at least give her something when you come back you know?" Zaki then said confidently when as expected, Sei finally turned his face towards him while his brows were a bit knitted.

"Well, it’s not like I’m forcing you though. I’m just worried that she might think you don’t even care about it. And maybe, she might even feel sad because she’ll probably think that it’s because she’s not someone special to receive a gift from yo-" he continued but before he could even finish his statement, the quiet Sei suddenly burst.

"That’s not true!" he said with a firm and a bit louder voice. Causing Zaki to fell speechless for a while before a victorious smile briefly flashed across his face.

"Yean, I know, I know... that’s why I’m telling you this. You should at least give her something so that she won’t think like that. You understand?"

...

Inside a certain luxurious gift shop, Zaki was smiling blissfully as he followed the disguised Sei from behind. Well, to delay more time, Zaki also managed to make him agree to put his Sei-er’s mask.

’Wow, in a blink of an eye were already here delaying time... haha... I’m such a genius to come up with this idea, you better prepare a banquet for me as a reward young miss...’ he mumbled happily within him while Sei was starting to burst out of impatience again. It was because, well, of course, he’s having a hard time since this is literally the first time he’s buying gift for someone himself. Every time they send gifts to their family, it was all Zaki who was doing it since Sei just doesn’t care about all those simple things at all.

"Zaki... tell me, what should I give her?" Sei then asked with a restless expression carved on his usual blank face, as he kept turning his head from left to right and back again like a lost puppy who just doesn’t have any idea whether he must step towards the left or the right side or towards the middle or just go back and leave.

That moment, looking at him like that could only made Zaki sigh as he moved closer towards him. Well, he knew that this was the first time this creature actually went to shop himself, so he couldn’t do a thing about it.

"Well, just chose something you know she’ll like." He then said and upon his signal, ladies in uniform approached Sei one after another. Showing him expensive jewelries, dresses, bags, shoes and everything that was considered precious to every woman’s eyes.

However, time passed and Sei just listened to all the sweet business talks of the ladies. His eyes were glued on each item they kept showing without even glancing at the ladies’ faces. Until finally, the sixteenth item came and Zaki finally interjected because Sei never even uttered a single word yet.

"Hey. Just chose one of those. Simply chose what appeared to be the prettiest before your eyes." Zaki whispered when Sei just looked at him blankly for a while before he opened his mouth.

"The prettiest before my eyes?" he repeated and when Zaki nodded like a rattle, for some reason, Sei’s brows knitted before he continued talking."But the only one that’s pretty before my eyes is my wife." He calmly said with such an amazingly sincere tone. Causing Zaki and all the ladies around to froze and fell speechless as all eyes fell on him.
