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

Others were rejoicing for the misfortune of the Red Team. Two members from the Red Team got injured. Other teams were thinking that they already had the upper hand for the last round.

Mark secretly approached Daniel. They succeeded in their plan without getting any suspicion from the elders. They thought that everything was just an accident.

"See, our team is now in the lead. Good job cousin!" Mark said while glancing at the scoreboard.

Red Team: 10+6

Yellow Team: 8+4

Green Team: 4+8

Blue Team: 6+10

Though the Red Team and Blue Team had the same scores, looking at the situation of the Twins, Mark was confident that they would win first place.

"This happened because of your brilliant idea, my dear cousin," Daniel returned the compliment.

"Hmm, it seems that the sports car will be mine. hahaha. I'm so excited. Let's participate in the streetcar race next month!" Mark stated excitedly.

"Sure, let's do that."

Meanwhile, Tristan and the twins were looking at Daniel and Mark who were already rejoicing as if they were declared the winners already.

"Tris, I don't think that what happened to us a while ago was just an accident. I felt like it was intentional," Jake shared his thoughts to them while glaring at Mark and Daniel.

Blake also nodded his head in support of Jake's claim.

"What if our two evil cousins really did it to make the situation in favor of their team? See, we have the same scores as of this moment."

Tristan paused for a moment. He was thinking of the possibility that this was set-up and intentional.

"If that's the case then our cousins from the Green Team also cooperated with Mark and Daniel?" Tristan told them his assumption.

Jake facepalmed after hearing that. "Eh, what a bad influence?! Trying to involve our other cousins with their evil deeds!"

Blake shook his head helplessly. "Mark and Daniel didn't learn their lesson. I thought Grandpa Alejandro's and Grandma Clara's punishments would help them change. But it seems that nothing has changed. They are still scheming as ever."

Tristan just let out a soft chuckle. "Well, we couldn't blame them. The prizes for this event are extravagant."

Blake and Jake frowned upon seeing Tristan's reaction. Instead of worrying about the next round, he was very carefree.

They didn't understand why the couple, Tristan and Lillie were not bothered, instead, they were confident that they could still win the last round.

"Hey, do you think we can win this? We are injured. We can't put our hundred percent strength in this Tug of War game. We are at a disadvantage," Blake sighed deeply, complaining to Tristan.

"Hmm, yes of course. We have a secret weapon. Hahaha!" Tristan told them proudly.

Blake and Jake glanced at each other before gazing back at Tristan with a weird look on their faces.

Blake: "Who?"

Jake: "Who?"

Tristan looked at them meaningfully before answering them, "Who else? Of course, it's me!"

Blake and Jake reacted right away. "Shameless!" Both of them said in unison.

Tristan just burst out laughing. He was thinking about Zhen-Zhen. She's their secret weapon but of course, he would not tell them that.

They were not allowed to know that his wife was powerful. It was just a secret between Zhen-Zhen and Tristan. 

Who would have thought that there's something supernatural happening in this world? A CEO marrying a Demon God's Daughter.

Even Tristan couldn't believe it. He thought this event would just happen in the movies and books. But now, it was happening in his real life and this modern world.

If other people would learn about this they would think that this was a curse. They would be scared of Zhen-Zhen and might even try to hurt her because she's different.

Others might think she's a witch because of her supernatural power. Scientists might also try to experiment her… her body and her power.

Tristan didn't want Zhen-Zhen to experience those things. So she must hide her powers. He also had sworn to himself that he would protect her at all costs.

Everyone was still talking with their respective teams when Matthew called their attention. The last round was about to begin.

Matthew explained the rule of this game. In the first round, two teams would fight each other. The winners of the first round would fight for first and second place while the losers of the first round would fight for third and fourth place.

After drawing lots, the opposing teams were decided. Yellow Team vs Blue Team and Green Team vs Red Team.

After the announcement, Tristan privately approached Zhen-Zhen.

"Wifey, I will allow you to use five percent of your extraordinary strength. Do you think it is enough to win the game?" Tristan asked Zhen-Zhen quizzically.

He knew that Zhen-Zhen had the ability to fly and control fire but he didn't experience yet how strong his wife was.

Zhen-Zhen took her time, calculating it in her mind. She was tracing her lips using her fingers as her habit.

"Hmm, okay hubby, I will try it. I will only use five percent of my strength. If it's not enough then I will increase it by 10 percent."

"Alright, wifey! Let's do this!" Tristan said excitedly.

The two teams who competed first were the Yellow and Blue team. As expected, the Blue team won the first round. The Blue Team was moving to the next round.

Now, the Red Team and the Green Team were competing. The Green Team was confident. Their cousin also made a joke, telling the Red Team that they would just use one hand to give them handicap to make it look fair for them.

The Red Team just ignored them. Tristan just reminded Blake and Jake not to force themselves and just held the rope without exerting too much strength.

Matthew signaled the start of the game. The Green Team started to pull the rope using their one hand but surprisingly it didn't move to their side even an inch.

They tried to pull harder but nothing happened. Jake and Blake who were in the back were wondering if the Green Team was not yet doing anything.

The spectators thought that the Green Team was just playing around and messing with the Red Team, pretending that they couldn't pull the rope going to their side.

Unknown to them, it was Zhen-Zhen's extraordinary strength that was stopping them. 

Among them, Tristan was the only one with a bewildered expression. He knew that Zhen-Zhen just applied five percent of her strength but the Green Team was already having a hard time pulling the rope.

"Hey, are you cheating? Why is it we couldn't move the rope?" One of their cousins from the Green Team complained to them.

Tristan just feigned innocence. He leaned closer to Zhen-Zhen and whispered something.

"Ahem, Wifey, can you change it? Instead of five percent, use only three percent of your strength."

Zhen-Zhen bobbed her head with a smile. "Ok hubby got it."

This time the Green Team who said they would just use one hand in pulling the rope just decided to use their two hands. 

A while ago, they looked like they were trying to move a mountain. And now, since Zhen-Zhen adjusted her strength from 5 percent to 3 percent, the Green Team was finally able to move and pull the rope by two to three inches going to their side.

 But still, it was not enough to pull the members of the Red team to cross the boundary line.

Meanwhile, to satisfy his curiosity, Jake bent a little to check what the Green team was doing.

"Eh? They are already pulling the rope? Strange… I couldn't feel our rope moving." Jake commented, feeling a little bit confused.

Tristan, who heard Jake's comments, tried his best to suppress his laughter.

Tristan glanced at the Green Team who looked like they were trying to pull and move an eighteen-wheeler truck.

On the other hand, Mark and Daniel who were watching on the sideline couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"What's the Green Team doing? They should finish this round already. Why are they still playing around?" Mark lamented to Daniel.

He thought that the Green Team were just making fun of the Red Team, that's why they were taking their time before pulling the rope with full force.

"That's true. They can finish it already if they want to. Sigh! I'm gonna scold them later. Why drag this for so long?" Daniel also complained to Mark.

They were still thinking that the Green Team had the upper hand, but the truth was they were just the underdog here.

It was the Red Team that could finish it already.

With that, Zhen-Zhen asked Tristan in a very low voice.

"Hubby, shall we pull the rope now?"

Tristan felt like he could no longer hold his laughter if this would continue further. The Green Team looked very comical to him so he just nodded at Zhen-Zhen.

"Yes, wifey! Let's finish this. Pull it after I finish counting from one to three."

Tristan also informed Jake and Blake about pulling the rope. He warned them as well.

One…

Two…

Three…

Pull!

After hearing Tristan's go signal, Zhen-Zhen pulled the rope in one swift move.

Swoosh!

In an instant, all the members of the Green Team were dragged towards their side, crossing the boundary line.

Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!

Mark: "..."

Daniel: "..."

Spectators: "..."

The four of them fell on the ground after being pulled like that. They were caught off guard. Who would have thought that the Red Team would still have the remaining strength to do that?!
