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

 "Don't call me father-in-law. I don't like you for my Baby Zhen-Zhen. I will find a much better son-in-law."

Tristan: "..."

Tristan was at a loss for words when he heard that. He didn't know what to say nor how to react. It seemed that Zhen-Zhen's 'father' didn't approve of him. Looking from his expression alone, Tristan could tell that he was not bluffing.

'Damn! He is dead serious about this. How can I win my father-in-law's heart? It looks like I have to do something before he finds another man whom he will matchmake with my wife.' Tristan suddenly felt threatened.

'Argh! What if Zhen-Zhen would listen to her father? What if she would leave me because her father asks her to do it? What should I do now,' Tristan felt like crying at that thought.

"But father-in-law, Zhen-Zhen is my wife already. You can't matchmake her with another man," Tristan complained to FaMo.

FaMo raised his eyebrow and said, "I said don't call me father-in-law."

"Eh, then what should I call you then? Sir?" Tristan was trying his best to be polite and not to offend him. He could see that this so-called father-in-law hated him so much. He couldn't afford to be on his bad side.

FaMo fell silent. He brought his other hand on his chin, rubbing it while thinking. After a few seconds, a sly smile appeared on FaMo's face, saying "Call me Master."

Tristan: "..."

'Master?!! Seriously… don't tell me he is trying to make me his slave? Damn… this demon god is so harsh. Fortunately, my wife didn't inherit this behavior.' Tristan lamented in his mind with a sigh.

"Come on. Call me Master. I wanna hear it. You never know I might change my mind," FaMo was playing with Tristan. He wanted to punish him. Provoking and annoying him were the things he could think of right now.

He was just threatening Tristan. He knew the fact that Zhen-Zhen liked Tristan so much. He just wanted to scare Tristan about finding another guy for Zhen-Zhen so that Tristan would treat Zhen-Zhen's better and cherish her.

"Master…" Tristan mumbled with his awkward expression. 

He had never imagined that he would call someone 'Master' in his life. He humbled himself because the person in front of him was Zhen-Zhen's father. That's what he thought. Clueless that the person before him was the cute and adorable fluffy black cat, FaMo.

FaMo tried his best to hold his laughter when Tristan obediently called him 'Master'.

"Good!" FaMo smirked at him mischievously.

Tristan felt like FaMo was playing him around his fingers. He just took a deep breath while reminding himself, 'Tristan, be good… be patient. You are doing this for Zhen-Zhen.'

It did not take long when Tristan had become serious. He faced FaMo and asked him directly.

"May I know the reason why you don't like me for Zhen-Zhen? Why do you hate me so much?"

FaMo was taken aback when he saw Tristan's saddened expression. He could see that he was troubled and bothered knowing that FaMo didn't like him for Zhen-Zhen.

FaMo decided to tell him the truth. "I don't like you because I feel like you are not serious with my Zhen-Zhen. You made her cry several times. You are the first person here who hurt her feelings. You are not being honest with her too. You love another girl. That Hannah girl."

Tristan was stunned in a moment when he heard that. He was thinking that Zhen-Zhen's father was always watching Zhen-Zhen. He wondered how he even knew about Hannah.

Now, he could understand if Zhen-Zhen's father didn't like him. He was just being protective of his daughter. He didn't want Zhen-Zhen to get hurt. And Tristan failed. Unknowingly, he hurt her feelings. He kept things from her.

Tristan lowered his gaze and clenched his fists. He felt useless. He admitted to himself that he was a total jerk. He committed a lot of mistakes. 

First, he tricked her into marrying him for his own gains and benefits. Second, he asked Zhen-Zhen to seduce his brother so that he could have Hannah. Because of that, Hannah's mother also hurt Zhen-Zhen physically.

Third, he hid the video from her, thinking that she didn't need to know about his feelings for Hannah. Fourth, he was still keeping his past deeds to her, his ugly reputation with women.

"I'm sorry. I regretted everything. I became inconsiderate of her feelings. I didn't mean to hurt her, but in the end, I ended up hurting her. I know she didn't deserve it. This is all my fault. I understand now why you hated me so much." Tristan paused for a moment, smiling bitterly at FaMo. 

FaMo could see the regret and guilt in his eyes. Tristan was being sincere right now.

"If I am in your shoes, I will also think the same thing. I won't let my daughter be with that guy who only knows how to cause her pain. But..." Tristan mustered up his courage to make a request from FaMo.

"Can you please give me another chance? I want to be a good husband to her from now on. I will do my best to make her happy. I will do my best… not to make her sad or cry. Can you do that? Can you give me that chance to do that for Zhen-Zhen?"

Tristan's voice was desperate. The sincerity was reflected in those pleading eyes. FaMo was looking at him intently. He was quiet. He just let Tristan talk to him with all his heart. 

"About Hannah… my feelings for her… they're all in the past now. I love Zhen-Zhen. Believe it or not, she's the woman I love now. She's my present and my future. I will protect her with my life. I want to have a fresh start with her. Please forgive me for my mistakes and… please give me a chance."

Tristan fell on his knees. He wanted to show his sincerity to FaMo. This was the only thing he could think of.

FaMo didn't expect this from him. Tristan was now kneeling in front of him, asking for his forgiveness… asking him to give him another chance.

FaMo had to admit that he was touched by his words. He could attest to that because he had witnessed how Tristan didn't hesitate to sacrifice himself and shield Zhen-Zhen against the guardian warrior's attack.

If he didn't fuse with his body, Tristan should have been dead by now. That sword was a divine sword filled with magical power. If FaMo didn't protect Tristan then Tristan would meet the same fate as Eva when she protected the demon god. He would be killed for sure.

He was glad that Tristan already had a change of heart. FaMo stood up to approach Tristan. He held his shoulders and helped him to stand up.

 "I didn't ask you to kneel before me. If you have to apologize then you should ask forgiveness from Zhen-Zhen, not me."

Then FaMo cleared his throat. *Cough! Cough!*

"Alright, I will give you a chance. But it doesn't mean that I approve of you for my Zhen-Zhen. You still need to work hard. If I see her cry again because of you, I will make sure to give you punishment. I will find another man who will suit my Zhen-Zhen. Is that clear?"

Tristan's face brightened up upon hearing that. He bobbed his head frantically before pouncing on FaMo. "Thank you, father-in-law! Thank you so much."

FaMo narrowed his eyes when Tristan suddenly hugged him. "Aww!" He grunted.

"What's wrong? Are you okay, Father?" Tristan released FaMo when he heard his groan.

"I said Master, not Father!" FaMo insisted while wincing in pain. Tristan accidentally touched his wound at the back when he pounced on him.

"You dumb fool! You just touched my wound." FaMo roared at Tristan.

Tristan just smiled at him sheepishly while scratching the back of his head, "I'm sorry, M-Master." He still felt awkward calling him that. "I just got excited and felt happy for giving me a chance."

"By the way, thank you for saving Zhen-Zhen and for protecting me. It seems that you are the one who got hurt, instead of me." Tristan said, expressing his gratitude towards FaMo.

'I have to do it, or else my Zhen-Zhen will cry a river of tears once something bad happens to you,' FaMo thought to himself, denying the fact that he also wanted to protect Tristan.

The two men were engrossed with each other that they failed to notice Zhen-Zhen's presence. She woke up without Tristan by her side. She immediately got off the bed and put on her clothes before getting out of the room.

She heard voices in the living room. She walked over to check on them. She was surprised when she saw FaMo in his demon god's form.

'FaMo is already awake!' Zhen-Zhen was overjoyed because of that.

She immediately dashed in his direction, hugging FaMo from behind. The two men were taken aback by her sudden appearance.
