The CEO's Wife Is A Demon God's Daughter

Chapter 197 - The Twins Got Injured



During the break time, Alice and Thomas approached the Red Team. They congratulated them for winning the first game. They gave them more words of encouragement.

Tristan, Zhen-Zhen, and the twins appreciated the support they were giving them. FaMo also joined them. Zhen-Zhen immediately cuddled FaMo in her arms, squeezing him gently.

She felt very happy that she was able to help her team to win first place.

'Zhen-Zhen, you never fail to amaze me. You are improving your skill. I didn't know you could shoot like that,' FaMo praised her.

Zhen-Zhen giggled in her mind.

'I did it because of Tristan.'

When FaMo heard that name, his face wrinkled in annoyance.

'Oh, that husband of yours has a lack of self-restraint. How dare he kiss you in front of many people?' FaMo complained to her with his ugly expression.

Zhen-Zhen just looked at FaMo helplessly. She could sense that FaMo was still annoyed with Tristan. She didn't know why FaMo hated him so much.

'FaMo, don't be mad. That was my lucky charm, okay? Tristan just tried to cheer me and encourage me to do well. See, I performed better.' Zhen-Zhen tried her best to console FaMo.

FaMo just heaved a deep sigh.

From the distance, Grandpa Lu was just watching them. As much as he wanted to approach the Red Team to congratulate Zhen-Zhen, he couldn't. 

He didn't want to look biased in front of their other grandchildren. So he would just wait for the competition to end.

While the Red team was rejoicing for their first win, some people were already plotting against them. The masterminds were none other than Mark and Daniel. And their accomplices were their cousins from the green team.

Since Andrew was busy talking with Mr. and Mrs. Miller together with Hannah, he failed to monitor his two evil cousins.

They were planning to cause some minor injury against the other members of the Red Team in the next round so that they won't be able to win even the last round.

The last round was Tug of War that required physical strength. If they were injured then it would be impossible for them to win the last round.

"How about Lillie?" Their cousin asked them.

"Don't touch her. Besides, she's just a woman." Mark said to them.

"So who's our target?" Their other cousin followed up a question.

"The Twins… Jake and Blake. If we do it to Tristan then they will suspect us that it is intentional rather than an accident. Remember, we had history… past grudges against each other." Daniel explained to them.

"Hmm, alright. Just a minor injury. We don't want to hurt our cousins severely." Their cousin reminded them.

Mark and Daniel just nodded. 

"Yes, of course. We are just doing this because of the extravagant prizes. We don't have a real intention to hurt the twins." Mark said, hiding his true motive.

The truth was they were also eager to get even with those twins. The twins insulted them during the last family gathering when they defended Tristan against them.

"Alright. got it."

It did not take long after they finished planning out their strategy or rather their scheme, Matthew announced that the second game was about to start.

He requested the participants to proceed in the playing area. He explained the rules of the game first. They were all familiar with the game Sack Race. They played this game during their childhood days in grade school.

The fastest team whose members would reach and cross the finish line would be declared the winner.

The other members were not allowed to leave the starting line unless their teammates in front reached the finish line first.

Each team maintained the members' arrangement that they used during the target shooting event.

Everyone was now in position. Matthew gave the go signal and so the race began. Spectators were cheering all the teams, shouting and screaming their names at the back.

In the middle of the race, Mark and his cousin from the green team implemented their plan. Their first target was Jake.

Jake continued jumping and hopping forward when suddenly Mark cut him in front and blocked him.

Their cousin from the green team was following them behind. In a brief moment, his cousin suddenly bumped Jake from behind, causing him to be out-balanced.

Mark grabbed that opportunity to trip him. Jake was not able to avoid it. He fell straight on the ground, left elbow first.

Thud! Crack!

"Argh!" Jake grunted and winced because of the pain.

Aside from Jake, Mark also pretended to fall on the ground, making the scene look like an accident because both of them fell on the ground.

But it was Jake who was badly hurt. His left elbow landed on the ground first. He felt like he sprained his elbow because of the impact.

Enduring the pain, Jake stood up and continued the race for his team.

The same thing happened to Blake. Daniel bumped him during the race. The other cousin pretended to fall on the ground, pulling Blake's legs in the process.

Blake also injured his arm because of the fall. But he finished the race. Because of what happened. The Red Team just ended up 3rd Place during the Sack Race.

Yellow Team was 4th placer, Green Team was 2nd Placer. The Blue Team won First Place.

"Hey, are you both alright?" Tristan asked Jake and Blake worriedly.

They were on a break. The twins were currently applying a cold compress to their injured elbow and hand.

Jake heaved a frustrated sigh. "It looks like we will not win first place this time. Oh, I won't be able to get a sports car."

Jake whined in front of them. He felt like crying. They didn't expect that accident would happen during the race.

"Goodbye to our Gold Membership Cards as well," Blake also commented, feeling dejected.

"The next game is the Tug of War. Should we forfeit the game? Your injuries are not looking good." Tristan suggested.

Zhen-Zhen could see the frustration on their faces. So she spoke up to cheer them up. She held Blake's and Jake's shoulder.

"Hmm, this time let me handle this," Zhen-Zhen told them, her blue eyes filled with so much determination.

Tristan's eyes lit up upon hearing that. He remembered that his wife was not an ordinary human. She's a demon god's daughter. That only meant she possessed a strength that was more powerful than a normal human being.

Tug of War was a battle of strength. Zhen-Zhen could win this even if it is one versus four.

Tristan couldn't help but burst out laughing with that realization. Jake and Blake looked at him strangely.

"Tris...why are you laughing? This is not funny at all. We can't win the next game." Jake complained to him.

Blake also nodded his head to support Jake's remarks.

"Hahaha, who said that? Did you forget? I am here and my wife is here. Just leave the last round to us. Lillie and I will win this last game. Just believe in us." Tristan winked at Zhen-Zhen after saying that.

Zhen-Zhen also bobbed her head. "Yes, don't worry too much. You both worked hard in the last game despite your injury. This time, Tristan and I will handle this."
