BXBX NOVEL Chapter 44 I'm Not Leaving You
"Really!? Yey! Thank you, Tristan! You heard that FaMo? You can stay here with us!" Zhen-Zhen blurted out gleefully.
Due to her excitement, she held FaMo tightly, squeezing him in her chest like a pillow.
Tristan just looked at Zhen-Zhen and her new pet amusingly, wishing that he was the one being held by Zhen-Zhen, not her cute chubby fluffy black cat.
\'Zhen-Zhen, can you pet me too? What a lucky cat?!\' Tristan mumbled to himself as he stared at FaMo who was being squeezed in between Zhen-Zhen\'s breasts.
After a while, Tristan shook his head trying to get those perverted thoughts out of his mind.
\'For goodness\' sake, am I getting jealous even with a mere pet? Clear your mind, Tristan! This is so unlike you.\' he scolded himself inwardly.
Tristan moved his gaze up to watch the blissful expression of Zhen-Zhen. Seeing her face shining brightly like a sunshine with her gentle smile and sparkling blue eyes, Tristan thought he made the right decision.
He couldn\'t bear to see her feeling down, that\'s why he agreed on keeping FaMo and raising him as her pet although he was not used to taking care of any pets especially furry animals.
Besides, he didn\'t hate those animals. It\'s just he was so protective of Hannah. When he was still a kid there was a time he wanted to have a pet dog.
But after what happened to Hannah, Tristan lost his interest in raising a pet. He just gave up on the idea for the sake of keeping Hannah safe.
But now, because of Zhen-Zhen, he would try to raise a cat. He had to admit that FaMo was overloaded with cuteness- so fluffy and chubby. FaMo\'s dark onyx eyes complemented his black shining furs.
Upon sensing Tristan\'s curiosity towards FaMo, Zhen-Zhen stretched her hands, bringing FaMo to Tristan. FaMo and Tristan gave her a questioning gaze.
She smiled sweetly and said, "Do you want to touch it too? Here, try it. He feels so soft."
FaMo\'s eyes widened in disbelief. He could stand Zhen-Zhen touching him all over his body, but Tristan? No! FaMo didn\'t like that idea.
For him, he was still the mighty legendary dragon creature and he was superior to Tristan. His pride couldn\'t accept that he would become a pet of an ordinary human like Tristan.
\'Zhen-Zhen! This was not part of what you\'ve requested me a while ago.\' FaMo complained to Zhen-Zhen through their mind link.
\'Huh? FaMo, you don\'t have to worry. He will treat you well just like how he treats me.\' Zhen-Zhen reassured him.
FaMo rolled his eyes. This was against his will but he had no choice. He had to comply with Zhen-Zhen\'s request. Just like Tristan, he didn\'t want to disappoint his master who was now his friend.
Meanwhile, Tristan darted his gaze between FaMo and Zhen-Zhen\'s chest. Upon hearing her words *Do you want to touch it too? Feels so soft.*- Instead of thinking about FaMo, the image of her beautiful round breasts flashed into Tristan\'s mind.
\'Yeah, I want to touch it again… and feel the softness of your twin peaks.\' Tristan thought to himself as his eyes darkened with desire. He felt his mouth suddenly become dry.
Meow! Meow!
FaMo\'s complaining cries snapped Tristan out of his daydream.
\'D@mn! What am I thinking?! Get a grip of yourself, Tristan!!!!\'
"Tristan? Are you okay? Why does your face suddenly become red?" Zhen-Zhen asked him curiously.
Cough! Cough!
Tristan cleared his throat and looked away. He couldn\'t look straight at her innocent eyes. He was guilty… guilty of fantasizing about her nakedness and yearning to touch her again just a while ago.
Tristan laughed awkwardly and said, "Hehe. It\'s nothing. I think I am just hungry."
\'Hungry and want to devour you!\' His alter ego voiced out his inner thoughts.
After hearing that, Zhen-Zhen put down FaMo on the floor. "Alright. Let\'s eat first. You can play with FaMo next time."
FaMo felt relieved after she finally released him. He was safe for now. His pride as the mighty dragon was still intact. To ensure that he could maintain it for a day, FaMo immediately fled and ran toward her room, leaving Tristan and Zhen-Zhen in the dining area.
Soon, Tristan and Zhen-Zhen ate their lunch together.
"Do you like the food? This food was cooked and prepared by my mother, your future mother-in-law." Tristan said while watching her as she enjoyed the food.
Zhen-Zhen gave him two thumbs up.
"It tastes very delicious. Mother-in-law cooked very well. Can I ask her to teach me how to cook so that I can also cook for you as your wife?"
Tristan chuckled with amazement after hearing that. Zhen-Zhen was really into it- becoming and acting as his loving wife.
"Of course, you can ask her that. I think she will be happy to teach you. But I am warning you. Don\'t use your fire when cooking in front of Mom. She will faint right away. Just use the gas stove. Understand?"
Zhen-Zhen just bobbed her head with a wide smile on her face. She was excited to meet Tristan\'s parents.
"Very good."
"Tristan… When can I meet them? Your parents?" Zhen-Zhen asked him.
"Hmmm, after a month maybe… when you become more familiar in this place and learn more about how to live like a normal person. But before I introduce you to them, we will register our marriage first."
"Don\'t worry, Tristan. I will do my best."
"Don\'t pressure yourself, Zhen-Zhen. Just enjoy your stay here. I will take care of the rest. Matthew is also helping us." Tristan softly said to her.
"Okay. I understand."
After a while, the two of them finished all the food inside the lunch box. Tristan taught her how to wash the dishes.
They just done cleaning the sink and the dining area when Tristan brought up the topic about the Out of Town Trip.
"Zhen-Zhen, I have something to tell you."
"Hmm, what is it?"
"Two days from now I will be leaving City of Empire because of our Field Research. I will stay at Oceanis City for one week."
Zhen-Zhen fell silent after hearing that. Her expression turned gloomy afterward.
"Y-You\'re leaving me, again?" Zhen-Zhen looked down while biting her lower lip.
Tristan grinned widely after seeing her expression. He just wanted to tease her. Though he failed to surprise her this afternoon, this time, he was confident that he won\'t fail.
He moved to her front. He put his left hand on her shoulder while he brought his right hand on her face. He raised her chin so that their eyes would meet each other.
"No, Zhen-Zhen. This time… I am not leaving you. I am bringing you with me. You will come with me at Oceaniz City!"
As expected, Zhen-Zhen looked very surprised after hearing Tristan\'s statements.
"I-I\'m… coming with… you?" She asked him again to confirm.
Tristan nodded his head with a smile.
Just like that, Zhen-Zhen\'s gloomy expression disappeared in an instant. It was replaced by her signature cheerful and charming smile. She was over the moon after Tristan confirmed it.
\'Oh! Tristan is not leaving me here alone! I\'m coming with him! Can I fly? No… I can\'t. Tristan told me not to use my power. But I\'m so happy that I want to fly!!!\'
