Chapter 205 - Lovey-dovey Moment Inside Their Tent
After getting Mrs. Miller's apology, Tristan and Zhen-Zhen went to their assigned area to put up their tent. Tristan still felt sorry and guilty for what happened to his wife.
Zhen-Zhen noticed Tristan who was feeling down. He was assembling the parts of the tent quietly.
"Hubby?"
Tristan paused what he was doing as he gazed up to Zhen-Zhen. "Yes, Wifey?"
"Why are you sad? You're very quiet. Your face can no longer be painted because of your expression, hubby."
A deep long sigh escaped his mouth. Tristan stood up and moved at her back. Then he hugged Zhen-Zhen from behind, placing his chin on her right shoulder.
"I feel guilty. Everything is my fault but it's you who suffers the consequences. I'm sorry, Wifey. I failed as your husband. I let someone hurt you," Tristan expressed his true feelings about what happened today.
Zhen-Zhen held Tristan's arms that were hooked around her waist.
"Hubby, I'm alright. Just forget about it. We already fixed everything. Auntie also apologized. Let's enjoy our stay here. Remember, this is our first time camping together." Zhen-Zhen said some comforting words to console Tristan.
"Instead of being quiet, why don't you teach me how to build our tent!" Zhen-Zhen said enthusiastically.
She was back to her vibrant self. Because of that, Tristan tried his best to cheer himself up as well.
Zhen-Zhen was indeed his happy pill. She was able to lighten his mood. The two of them had fun setting up their tent. They still had enough time for their bonding moment before the night activities would start.
FaMo was currently being held hostage by Tristan's mother. He was caught by Isabelle and brought him to their tent. So FaMo was out of the picture as of this moment.
If he learned what happened to Zhen-Zhen then FaMo would surely be in his beast mode. He would avenge her for that unjust treatment she received from Mrs. Miller.
After a few minutes, Tristan and Zhen-Zhen finished setting up their tent. Tristan went to his car to get their pillows and blankets.
It also started to get dark. Everyone was having their nap time. Assistant Twig and Matthew would informed others once it's time for dinner. They would also spearhead tonight's activity.
When Tristan came back, Zhen-Zhen was already inside their tent. The space could accommodate four people. The two of them arranged everything inside before they lay down together to take a nap.
"Wifey, are you enjoying this family gathering?" Tristan asked Zhen-Zhen.
They were both lying sideways, facing each other. Zhen-Zhen gave him a gentle smile before answering his question.
"Yes, hubby. I had so much fun this morning. We even won the game! Our parents are very supportive, cheering us on the sideline. Grandpa Lu also congratulated us." Zhen-Zhen said with her cheerful voice. It's very obvious that she enjoyed this activity.
Tristan chuckled as he remembered the Tug of War game. They got even with the Scheming Green Team and Blue Team.
"My Wifey is the best! You're the reason why we won the game!" Tristan praised Zhen-Zhen.
"Come here, Wifey. I wanna hug you." Tristan opened his arms wide, asking her to move closer to him.
Zhen-Zhen gladly complied with his request. Tristan gathered her in his arms. Zhen-Zhen lay her head on his arm as Tristan engulfed her into a warm hug.
"Do you feel comfortable here in our tent?" Tristan asked her, looking into her ocean-like blue eyes.
"Yes, I feel comfortable, especially now that I'm with you."
Tristan couldn't help but smile tenderly at her when he heard her genuine response. His heart started to beat crazily inside his chest once again.
Thinking that they were just alone in their tent, Tristan's excitement intensified.
'Oh, I just realized FaMo is not here. Hehehe." Tristan rejoiced inwardly.
Both Tristan and FaMo were rejoicing whenever one of them was missing or not present. Tristan had to thank his mother for FaMo's absence.
Unknown to Tristan, FaMo was only waiting for the opportunity to escape from Isabelle's grasp. Just like Tristan, FaMo was feeling unsettled if Zhen-Zhen was not in his sight, most especially if she left alone with Tristan.
Poor Tristan. He still didn't get FaMo's hundred percent approval of his relationship with Zhen-Zhen. He still needed to work hard to win FaMo's heart.
But Tristan decided to worry about that later. As of now, he wanted to focus with his wife. He also planned out to surprise Zhen-Zhen tonight to make it up for her.
He heard that there were lots of fireflies during at night in a certain place here. He would bring Zhen-Zhen there to watch thousands of fireflies.
He was excited for that. He knew Zhen-Zhen would like it. He liked to see her joyful expression once she would see those fireflies.
Watching fireflies together in the middle of the night sounded romantic. Tristan was now looking forward to that moment.
With a loving smile on his face, Tristan asked Zhen-Zhen to meet him in a certain place after tonight's activities.
Zhen-Zhen just bobbed her head in agreement. Tristan didn't tell her about the fireflies because it would be his surprise for her.
'I should ask the Twins to help me with this surprise,' Tristan told himself.
Tristan was lost in his thoughts, thinking about his plan for tonight. Zhen-Zhen pouted when Tristan was not paying attention to her. She said something but Tristan didn't respond.
"Hubby," Zhen-Zhen gazed up only to see Tristan smiling like a fool.
"You're not listening to me," Zhen-Zhen complained to him.
"Huh? I'm sorry, wifey. What is it?"
Tristan chuckled upon seeing her adorable expression. She still looked pretty even if she was frowning and pouting like that.
"I said what are we doing after tonight's activity."
"Hmm, it's a secret but I'm sure you will like it," Tristan winked at Zhen-Zhen.
"Oh, okay."
"Wifey?"
"Yes?"
Tristan didn't say a word. He just lifted her chin and sealed her lips with a passionate kiss. He was dying to do this since this morning.
He couldn't get enough of her. Though he kissed her already during the target shooting event, he was still craving for more.
He grabbed this opportunity that they were alone. He kissed her several times until her lips became swollen. He kissed her like there was no tomorrow.
