Tristan chuckled before saying, "Nice question, Zhen. As for me, you can call me Hubby."
Zhen-Zhen immediately latched on to his arm while leaning closer on his side, saying "Hubby… my Hubby…my Hubby Tristan!"
She repeated calling him that with her soft mellow voice. Her blue orbs sparkled like shining stars in the night sky while meeting his hazel eyes. Her radiant smile beaming with joy.
At that certain moment, Tristan was lost in her gaze, his stomach fluttered… his heartbeat suddenly became wild, pounding and racing fast inside his chest. He could hear it loud in his ears.
Badum! Badum! Badum!
In his eyes right now, Zhen-Zhen was like a foggy deep well. The moment he jumped on this well, he drowned and drowned. And when he reached the end, he became more amazed. It seemed like at the end of the well was an endless ocean.
He was drifting in that ocean... a lone sailor on the vast ocean. But he didn't feel lonely at all because he knew this ocean was Zhen-Zhen, who was embracing him with her tides… engulfing him with her all might and making him her own.
Meanwhile, Zhen-Zhen had noticed that Tristan became unusually quiet. He stood there, very still and unmoving while staring at her with his glazed eyes open. A look of stupor was on his face.
"Tristan?" Zhen-Zhen called him out while nudging his side.
Her voice and slight touch awakened him from the daze. Then Tristan blinked himself out of his daydream, smiling at her sheepishly while scratching his reddened face. He was blushing like a teenage boy!
He couldn't believe it. He just blacked out for a moment after hearing her calling him 'hubby' in her soft sweet voice matched with her beautiful blue eyes and enchanting smile.
'D@mn, Zhen-Zhen's charm is deadly. I feel like I'm getting a heart attack or losing my sanity. Why is it my heart and my brain are reacting like this?' Tristan reflexively brought his free hand on his chest, feeling his heartbeat.
Tristan was still busy figuring out what had just happened to him when Zhen-Zhen felt FaMo's presence. FaMo found them walking down the alley going to the next building.
Without waiting for Zhen-Zhen to react, FaMo fused with her body secretly. FaMo made sure that Tristan and other humans could not see his form with their naked eyes. Since he was part of Zhen-Zhen's power, Only she could see him.
The two of them communicated through a mind link.
'FaMo, what's wrong?' She asked him right away.
She felt that something was off with FaMo. He even came out of the car just to find them. She was thinking that maybe something happened.
'I'm worried about you. So I came here right away?' FaMo replied with his concerned voice.
Zhen-Zhen giggled inwardly. 'Are you worried about me that I might fail the exam?'
'No, it's not that. I know you will pass the exam. You're smart, Zhen-Zhen.' FaMo said, correcting her wrong assumption.
'Then what's wrong? Why are you worried about me?' Zhen-Zhen asked him, her interest was piqued by FaMo's anxious behavior.
'Just a while ago, I sensed a strong force… a powerful aura. It's not an aura of ordinary humans. I just felt uneasy. I thought you might be in danger so I searched for you right away. I can protect you if I am with you.' FaMo explained to her.
Zhen-Zhen's lips twitched into a gentle smile. She loved FaMo. He was always thinking about her safety and well-being.
'You don't have to worry FaMo. I can protect myself. Besides, you also said that I am more powerful than those ordinary humans. There is no guardian warrior here, right?'
FaMo just took a deep sigh. 'Yeah, but I just have a nagging feeling. Or maybe I am just overthinking. Your safety is my main priority. I can't help it. I was your protector first before I became your friend.'
'Yes, I understand. But you have to get out later once Tristan and I will return to the car. He might be worried if ever he will not see you inside.'
'Ok. I got it. I will do that later.'
Zhen-Zhen and FaMo just finished their conversation when Tristan finally gathered himself. He was able to clear his mind. His attention was back to Zhen-Zhen.
"Zhen-Zhen, let's go and visit the building for those students who are taking the photography course."
Zhen-Zhen just bobbed her head vigorously. She wanted to see her future classroom building. When the two of them passed by the Mass Communication Building, two figures had seen them.
The woman immediately recognized Tristan Davies. He was well-known because he was one of the successful bachelors and CEOs in the city of Empire. That woman was Dhalia, one of the rising entertainment reporters today. She was with her partner videographer, Iris. They were both alumni of this university and they came here to visit one of their professors before.
Media reporters hadn't seen Tristan Davies for the past few weeks. His scandal was still a hot topic in the newspaper headlines and the internet. Everyone was still searching for him to get his statement and opinion about his scandal.
"Iris, look who's here! Tristan Davies, the mighty CEO of the Heavenly Star Enterprise who went missing in the eyes of the public in the past few weeks." Dhalia exclaimed as if she just won a jackpot today.
Iris followed Dhalia's line of sight. Then he saw Tristan walking towards the opposite building together with a lady.
"Whoah, he's with someone. Probably, his new woman?" Iris blurted out.
Dhalia immediately grabbed Iris and pulled him. "Let's follow them. This is a perfect opportunity to get an exclusive interview with Tristan Davies! We will hit big if we are the ones to get his interview first!
"Oh, don't forget to take some photos of him." Dhalia reminded him.
"Eh, are we paparazzi?" Iris asked, scratching the back of his head.
Dhalia pinched his arm and said "No, we are not. But of course, we need to take his picture for our article."
Soon, the two reporters followed Zhen-Zhen and Tristan while taking their pictures without their knowledge.
