Novel Bin Chapter 175 Behave Zaki
Some time later...
Sei and Zaki just entered a luxurious old castle when the family of three, Mr. and Mrs. Chen along with old man Yu Chen were already waiting for them. And as soon as they saw the two men approaching, their adoptive father and mother smiled happily as they warmly hugged the two of them, even though Sei as usual was still the unmoved log as he usually was.
"You two damn old brats! How could you neglect visiting us these days? You cold rooted log right there, where is the great grandson I’m waiting for? I’m about to die for heaven’s sake!"
An angry statement made everyone turned their heads towards the old man with a sour face, however, as usual, unaffected as ever, Sei just averted his gaze without even saying a word back.
"My, my, dad. Please calm down. I think it’s still too early for our Sei to give us a grandchild, let’s not pressure him and give him more time okay?" said Mrs. Chen gently, trying to coax the old man. However, he seemed to be desperate enough to accept any more excuses. Causing Zaki to immediately whisper towards Sei.
"Oi Sei... don’t just stand there. Say something or the old man will never calm down." He said when Sei just glanced at him before he replied.
"You. Do. Something. Or else, I’ll arrange a marriage for you." He said firmly, causing Zaki to almost choked to death.
"W-w-what the... don’t just spout nonsense like that however you want!" Zaki exclaimed but the moment he saw the serious look in Sei’s eyes, he could only cry without tears as he immediately walked towards the angry old man.
"Grandpa..." he gently stared but before he could continue the old man started scolding him instead.
"You too. Didn’t you say you’ll help that living ice brother of yours to find a wife capable to melt him down and turn him human again?! Does this mean, you too are as incapable as him? Are both of you afraid of girls or something?!" the old man said and Zaki could only have a series of invisible sweat drops on his forehead.
"Er... grandpa, didn’t I tell you not to worry? That living ice grandson of yours already have a wife okay?" Zaki said and the three –Mr. and Mrs. Chen and the old man- immediately fell silence due to shock before they mobbed Zaki for explanation.
"What did you just say. What did you just say?"
"Hey you three, why don’t you ask the man himself instead?" Zaki complained when the three turned towards the quiet Sei rooted on the same spot where he stopped moments ago. However, after looking at him for about three seconds, instead of going to him, the three just turned again towards Zaki.
"Never mind him, he’ll only give us single or two words anyway. You talk Zaki. C’mon, fast!" the three said and Zaki could only give in.
Ahh... somehow, my life these days are only getting tougher...
After some explanations, and showing them some stolen pictures of them together as proofs, the three finally heaved a long sigh of relief and gladness. The angry old man also turned blissful as he patted Zaki’s shoulder.
"Mm, mn... you did a good job little Zaki. Because of your hardwork, I shall reward you." The old man happily said but Zaki immediately stepped one step away from him. It was because he knew he’ll never like whatever reward he’ll gave him.
"No need grandpa. I’m helping Sei unconditionally and I didn’t do much about this to tell you the truth."
"No! The talk is already over. I have found a fiancé for you. She’s a beautiful lady from the country where you both were staying at. Her grandfather is my friend so you better behave." He said and Zaki was about to immediately sneak away and run for his life when the old man was already holding unto his arm.
"Er... grandpa... look, Sei is about to have a child soon so you don’t need to---"
"Shut up. I was the one who gave you a surname so you shouldn’t only obey Sei, you have to obey me too." The old man said and before Zaki talk back again, Sei suddenly talked.
"Do what you want with him for now, I’ll go take a rest for a bit." Sei said and Mrs. Chen immediately walked away with him. Leaving Zaki reaching out his hand helplessly like an abandoned child.
You damn selfish log... how could you just leave me like this when I’m in this extreme crisis?!
The next moment later, before Zaki could begin to coax the old man again for him to let him go, a maid walked towards them, saying that the visitors has arrived.
"Okay, behave Zaki, you’re fiancé is here. It’s a good thing you came home tonight. Well, I think this is a sign that you both are fated. " The old man said happily while Zaki instantly choked. He coughed for a while but before he could manage protest, two people entered the large living room and when Zaki raised his head and looked at the girl quietly following another old man, Zaki choked again, but this time it’s quite extreme.
W-w-what is she doing here? W-why is this girl here...?
