I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband Chapter 388 For a genius, you're not very smar

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."
This grandson of his was really making things difficult. It was like he was back to his old, one word answer, robot-like self. He just wanted to have a normal conversation but it was hard to continue talking when the other person just gave one word answers. 'Davi… come back soon or Sei might revert back to his condition before he met you.'
"Zaki, why do you have the same face as that log?" Knowing he wasn't going to get a conversation out of Sei, old man Mikazuki turned his attention to Zaki.
Hearing him, Zaki who had been quiet all this time finally spoke, and he was back to his usual jolly self again.
"Gramps, you don't need to insult this perfectly handsome and masculine face by comparing it to the frozen log's over there..." Zaki answered cheekily, seemingly trying to lighten the mood.
"Why?! Why have I been given these two bobbleheads to look after?" old man Mikazuki could only complain, as he raised his eyes heavenward, as if asking the gods for an answer.
He then sighed and said to Zaki, "go over there and talk some sense to your brother." Whatever Mr. Mikazuki ordered, Zaki could only obey.
He walked towards Sei and dropped down on the seat next to him.
"The mighty Sei, being brought down to this state by his wife… I mean, ex-wife…" Zaki said out loud to no one in particular. He deliberately said ex-wife because he knew for certain that this would get a reaction from the brooding stone sitting next to him. Of course, Sei didn't disappoint, as Zaki felt the deathly glare being directed at him.
"You know, for a genius, you're not very smart. I mean, if you wanted to know what she is up to, you could just get your secret intelligence unit to investigate."
"No."
Zaki then sidled up closer to him and whispered his next words quietly, like he was a small devil sitting on Sei's shoulder.
"Not even just to find out where she went?"
Zaki's tone was teasing but he knew that Sei was depressed because he was apart from Davi. He knew that he might feel better if he was at least in the same country as her.
At this comment, an idea seemed to have engraved itself into Sei's mind and without waiting another second, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number. As soon as the call was picked up, he uttered "Find out where she went" and then he hung up straight after.
Zaki was mentally patting himself on the back for a job well done. He then turned to his grandfather and have him a thumbs up.
Five minutes later, Sei's phone rang and he answered with a curt "Where is she?"
"Country J, sir."
As soon as he heard this information, Sei's eyes narrowed and he looked like something lit up in his brain. He spent a few minutes thinking quietly and once he was done, he said, "I will go to country J."
