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

Chapter 359 Sweet and cheesy

Hearing Zaki’s words, Sei’s brows knotted as he looked obviously displeased by the news while Davi suddenly felt somehow nervous as soon as she heard that her husband’s parents were coming. Well, aside from Zaki, Davi believe that she still never met any of Sei’s relatives before, so this sudden news was a real surprise to her. She never had the chance to think about this either or prepare herself so she couldn’t help but feel a little bit uneasy.

"Y-your parents are coming?" Davi uttered with unease flustered across her face and Sei creased his brows even harder.

"Why? You don’t want them to come?" He asked curiously and Davi immediately shook her head.

"I-it’s not like that. It’s just that... I’m... I’m kind of nervous." Davi answered and Sei tilted his head, looking as if he couldn’t understand why she’s nervous.

"... Nervous?" he could only utter as Davi awkwardly nodded.

"Except for your brother, I never met any of your other family members before so..." She said before she bit her lip and Sei who was suddenly being mused with her cute uneasy expression raised his hand and ruffled her hair gently. Well, how could Sei not felt amused when his dear wife was acting exactly like a young boyfriend who was fidgeting because he was about to meet his girlfriend’s parents?

"It’s okay, don’t be afraid... they are good people." Sei reassured as he continued patting Davi’s head when the girl held his wrist to stop him.

"I’m not afraid, okay? And, I’m not nervous because I’m thinking they’re bad. It’s just that... I’m nervous because they might dislike me."

"Why would you think they might dislike you?"

"Well, it happens in stories and in real life a lot so... Moreover, you’re too handsome and too adorable sometimes, you’re too rich, you’re too powerful, you’re too intelligent, you are too perfect in everything, so they will surely want someone as perfect as you."

"Aren’t you that perfect someone they will surely want?"

"...?!"

Sei’s last line rendered Davi speechless. She gazed at him and upon seeing the serious and certain look in his eyes, she felt like her blood was about to gush out of her nose. Well, it’s not like Davi was degrading herself, it’s just that Sei was literally a king while she was just a soldier at the moment. As of now, her status was like the Earth while Sei’s was like the sun and she knew very well that to other people’s eyes, she wasn’t worthy of him.

"You don’t have to worry. You are the only one perfect for me. I won’t allow anyone to question that fact, no matter who they are." Sei’s tone suddenly turned into something extremely firm and indisputable. He just seemed like he was stating a sacred vow as he said those words, turning Davi’s heartbeats into an uncontrollable drum.

Her heart was covered with thick layers of sugars that she already forgot about her nervousness. His every word was like sweet desserts that kept being fed to her nonstop.

Sei was just so unbelievably sweet and cheesy today. Did his fever increase the level of his sweetness?

Davi was about to speak right after she recovered from Sei’s sugary attacks when the man turned towards Zaki.

"Zaki, take your fiancée with you and go and delay them." He ordered and Zaki creased his forehead.

"Huh? What do you even mean by that?!"

"Tour them around the city or anything. Just don’t let them reach the mansion today."

"H-huh?!"

"As you can see, I am currently very sick. I don’t want to be disturbed so I could rest well and recover."

"You..."

"Also, fetch little Shin after his class and take him with you."

"..."

"And remind the maids that today is their day off."

After those words left Sei’s mouth, everyone was speechless. Even Davi can’t believe what Sei just said.

Meanwhile, Zaki could only curse within him.

This love-struck fool... ’I am currently very sick’ my ass... just say you want to be alone with your Davi today damn it! And what? Remind the maids that today are their day off? When did you even learn speaking this way?!

Just as Zaki was complaining silently, Davi who was still surprised finally spoke.

"Uhm Sei... Are you sure? Won’t your parents be angry if you do this?" She said with a worried look and Sei once again patted her head.

"They won’t... they will enjoy since they’ve been drying to spend a day with Little Shin for a long while now. Moreover, Zaki and Hinari will be there to entertain them." He replied and Davi was about to speak again when Sei suddenly bent and laid his head on her shoulder.

That instant, Davi immediately felt his burning skin and she gasped.

"Y-you’re burning. You really need to go back to bed now." She said as she held him and Sei raised his hand into her waist as he finally uttered an "Mm."

Davi then supported Sei as they walked towards the stairs when Sei glanced at Zaki. With his gaze alone, Zaki felt like his head was about to explode. It was because the words ’move now and make sure to take all the other moving creatures inside this house with you’ were blatantly being flashed across Sei’s eyes.

Upon receiving the absolute order, puffs of air left Zaki’s nose as the veins on his forehead were popping. Well, this Sei really turned way too shameless there’s no more cure for him.

While the couple was slowly climbing the stairs, Zaki and Hinari could still hear their conversation.

"But Sei, I think we need the butler to at least stay in the house with us just in case something will---"

"There’s no need. You’re the only one I need to get better."

"... Are you okay? Do you want me to call Zaki to help you climb?"

"No need. Just call me ’darling’ and I can climb fast."

"..."

"Did you know how many times you called me ’darling’ last night?"

"Err... okay, okay. I’ll call you ’darling’ again so forget about last night, okay?"

"Mm, okay."

"D-darling, move your feet now."

That moment, while Davi and Sei was climbing like turtles on the stair, and while Sei kept spouting cheesy lines like he was drunk, Zaki’s hand reached Hinari and he flicked her forehead softly.

"Stop looking and listening to them." He said and Hinari who was startled puffed her cheeks.

"What’s wrong about looking at them? It’s like I’m reading a heartwarming and cute romantic novel you know? And it’s a great experience, why can’t you appreciate such a rare romantic occurrence?" Hinari immediately protested, annoying Zaki even more.

"Wait... don’t tell me you hate eating dog foods? Dog foods are heart softener you know? Why don’t you watch them too? Maybe your heart will also soften... Ouch! Will you stop flicking me?"

"Stop talking nonsense, let’s go." Zaki said as turned his back with a still annoyed expression when Hinari started murmuring behind him.

"Sigh... why is my fiancé so coldhearted? Is he really his brother’s brother? Why can’t he be sweet and cheesy like him?" Hinari murmured and upon hearing her, Zaki slowly turned towards her and Hinari gasped as she immediately covered her mouth with her hands.

"I’m sorry... I forgot about my behavior again. Please don’t take my words seriously, those words just slipped out. Hehe. Let’s go, let’s go." She reasoned out quickly before she ran away from Zaki as fast as she could.
