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

Some time ago...

Sei and little Shin were rushing towards the mansion as soon as he received a message telling him that the old men went to the mansion again without prior notice. He was also told that their parents were also with them so Sei quickly sent Zaki a message to at least inform him.

When they reached the house, the old men immediately complained at him for making them wait for too long outside before relentlessly asking about the whereabouts of Zaki.

"Son, where’s your brother?" Mrs. Chen asked as she took little Shin in Sei’s arms.

"I believe he’s still asleep upstairs." He answered and everyone looked at him in surprise.

"What?! That little punk is here?"

"Wait, Sei. Don’t tell me you locked up your brother here for an entire night till now?!"

When Sei remained silent, everyone already understood that he really did, causing them to sigh heavily.

"Sei, I know you’ve been worried about your brother a lot but don’t forget that he’s already an adult. I don’t think there’s a need to lock him up in the house like this." His mother said gently as everyone agreed with her.

Sei was about to explain but his mother spoke first. "But I think we can surprise Zaki like this. Come on, everyone, let us go to the kitchen and wait for him there. That kid has a habit of walking straight to the kitchen after waking up so let’s ambush him there."

And thus, the entire gang walked towards the kitchen. Sei glanced upstairs for a moment and his brows creased. He already sent him a message so why was he not coming out yet? Could it be that he didn’t read his message?

Somehow, this possibility made Sei’s lips curve up into a smile and he glanced at Ryou and Kaide in the corner.

"Close the entrance and come with us to the kitchen." He said and the two could only do as he said.

In the kitchen, the family had finally finished preparing when Sei suddenly called Kir to take away little Shin.

"Sei, isn’t it alright for little bun to skip practice just for today?" Mrs. Chen said but Sei still told little Shin to go.

"It’s alright mother, I’ll call him back once his uncle is here." He replied and the madam could only nod.

Time passed and everything was finally ready. Everyone was already gathered with the exception of Davi and Little Shin.

Kaide who was peeking at the living room finally heard some soft steps coming from upstairs so he quickly went back to the kitchen silently.

"He’s here." He whispered and everyone stood in silence, gesturing at each other.

After a short while, they could now hear soft footsteps coming closer. They quietly raised their hands, ready to let the surprise fly.

The moment someone entered...

"Happy birthday Zak---"

Their greeting was cut as the confetti fell over them. An extremely awkward silence took over as everyone’s eyes except Sei widened at the sight that appeared before them.

Zaki on the other hand froze in shock and so did Hinari who was still in his arms, straddling him.

Everyone: ". . ."

Zaki and Hinari: ". . ."

For a long while, nobody made a sound or a move.

Zaki’s gaze slowly fell on Sei at the back but the man was nonchalantly sipping his tea as he gazed back at him with a raised brow as if saying the word ’what’.

Zaki didn’t even know how to react. Everything was unbelievably shocking and awkward with him appearing in this state before his whole family, that all he could do was turn red like a tomato. Hinari in his arms, didn’t even want to turn her head anymore to see what awaited them and just buried her face at the nook of Zaki’s neck.

The awkward stalemate stayed like that until Mrs. Chen finally cleared her throat and decided to save her dearest youngest son.

"Oh dear, we are sorry for not informing you like this." She said as she approached her son before shoving him to walk away. "Now go my dear and do what you needed to do first, we will go back for now and wait for you both in the villa this evening, okay?"

"O-okay." Zaki could only utter before he dashed away from the scene, leaving the men behind speechless.

"Now, now. Let’s better leave. Fufu, I’m so happy. I’m finally going to have another grandchild soon." Mrs. Chen’s reaction finally awakened everyone and a chuckle echoed. The old men turned and looked at the pair grinning so widely, causing them to press their lips tightly in order to stop.

"Please excuse us." Ryou and Kaide then said and dashed outside the mansion, grinning from ear to ear. "God, I can’t believe something like this happened to our great second, no, fourth boss. Did you see his over ripe tomato face?! His reaction was priceless!! Pfft!"
