Chapter 388 - For a genius, youre not very smart (1/2)

Extremely shocked with Sei's remarks, Hinari remained there unmoving until Sei disappeared from her sight. She was so surprised she didn't know what to feel. Well, she never expected this mighty boss to ever ask her to call him big brother-in-law so she could hardly believe it. Was he kidding? But when did this Sei the great even utter a joke?

Realizing that this man was never the type to spout jokes and even white lies, Hinari somehow felt her face turn a bit hot. However, when she imagined herself calling Sei the great 'big brother-in-law', her expression changed and she face palmed herself.

Somehow, she felt like calling him that would surely take every ounce of courage in her. 'I think It's easier to call him 'Crocodile Master', no, 'big boss the great' than 'big brother-in-law'… sigh…'

Time passed and the doctor finally arrived. Hinari was waiting inside the room when an old doctor entered accompanied by Sei.

The doctor then immediately closed in on Zaki and he took his pulse.

The atmosphere was very silent. Sei was leaning on the wall quietly as he stared at the sleeping Zaki while Hinari was standing across the bed like a well behaved young lady till the check up was over.

…

The next morning, the atmosphere in the Chen residence was gloomy. This was because Sei's expression was extremely depressing. He was forced to give in last night and let Davi go. He didn't know what could be so important that she wouldn't even tell him a single thing about it.

Somehow, Sei couldn't help but think that this might be because Davi was a bit angry at him after all, even though he knew deep down that she already forgave him. He understood that she had the right to get angry but he couldn't stop feeling so gloomy and troubled because she had left so hastily. He felt like they still hadn't had a proper talk about this so he just couldn't feel at ease.

Although, inside the house, it wasn't only Sei who was having such an indifferent and unhappy mood. For some reason, a certain couple seemed to have just had a big fight and they weren't talking at all.

It was as if something huge happened in the span of the night. Well, Hinari was actually a bit upset because Zaki was again back to his usual self, acting like nothing happened at all the entire night. The doctor who checked on him told her that Zaki was alright but Hinari was still feeling a bit uneasy, so as soon as Zaki woke up, she went and asked him but the guy simply told her he was completely fine and nothing more.

Thus, unable to vent her frustration because the Chen family were all here, Hinari could only quietly sulk in the corner.

Seeing this, old man Mikazuki, who was so disappointed to find out that Davi was gone the moment he woke up, could no longer stand the situation.

”You people! What's going on with you? Sei, why did Davi leave so early this morning?”

”Business.”

”Have you settled everything with her?”

”No.”

”So, are you just going to sit there and mope the whole day? What will you do now?”

”Wait.”
