Love So Sweet

Chapter 504 - 504 Pretending was Too Tiring

504 Pretending was Too Tiring

Bai Qi took his wife and little sister around the city in the morning before the three of them returned to the exhibition center for lunch.

When they arrived, Zhang Li Xue caught her little brother and Father Fang discussing something. Zhang Yi Hai was speaking and Father Fang was listening intently. The way Father Fang was looking at Zhang Yi Hai was full of adoration.

Looking at this scene made Zhang Li Xue laugh.

It seemed that her little brother had already impressed Father Fang. Zhang Li Xue thought that even if his relationship with Fang Su Jin was exposed in the future, the elders would be surprised, but would not stop them from dating.

The Fang couple might take a while to accept that their daughter was dating someone younger. However, they seemed to like Zhang Yi Hai and had a good impression of him.

Convincing the elders to let them date should not be too hard.

Her little brother might be a few years younger, but when it comes to a critical time, he would be a person that one could rely on.

Zhang Li Xue watched her little brother for a while and suddenly thought that someone like him was really suitable for her best friend.

Fang Su Jin was a soft and sweet person. Perhaps because of that, a lot of people think that she was easy to bully. But with Zhang Yi Hai by her side, he would not let that happen again.

.....

Somehow, she could already imagine that Father Fang would excitedly invite Zhang Yi Hai to come over to Fang’s residence to discuss a lot of things with her little brother.

As if sensing that someone was looking at him, Zhang Yi Hai turned his head and saw that his sister had returned. He raised his brow at her, but his sister smiled sweetly at him before looking away.

Mother Fang saw that the family of three had returned and reminded her husband to stop talking and get everyone to the restaurant.

A few minutes later, the group was seated in a restaurant together.

Fang Su Jin glanced unhappily at her father who was still trying to keep her boyfriend’s attention.

Zhang Yi Hai was her boyfriend, but his attention was fully on her father.

Unfortunately, she was still trying to keep her relationship with Zhang Yi Hai a secret. No matter how unhappy she was, there was nothing she could do about it.

“Mom. How long are you guys staying in F Country?” Fang Su Jin asked as she looked at her mother.

“We planned to accompany you in F Country until your exhibition ended.”

Fang Su Jin looked at her mother in shock.

If her parents are going to stay for a few more days, then, it would be difficult for her to have a date with her boyfriend, right?

It was not easy for her to see her boyfriend. In the beginning, something happened to them in F Country, preventing her to have a date with Zhang Yi Hai. When it was resolved, Fang Su Jin thought that she would have Zhang Yi Hai to herself.

Who would have thought that there were too many surprises around them?

“Unfortunately, your father is still busy with his work,” Mother Fang continued. “We’ll have to return tomorrow.” Because she was looking at her husband, Mother Fang failed to see the joy on her daughter’s face.

Noticing that Zhang Li Xue was looking at her with a strange smile on her face, Fang Su Jin then gave her a nudge on the waist.

“That’s too bad. I was hoping that I could spend a little more time with you,” Fang Su Jin tried to please her mother with some sweet words.

“Really?” Mother Fang looked at her daughter happily. “Then, maybe I should convince your dad to take a few more days off.”

Fang Su Jin’s face turned a bit pale upon hearing her mother’s words. “Mom, you don’t have to. Dad is really busy with his work at this time of the year. Although I wanted to spend time with you, I don’t want you and dad to tire yourself.”

Worried that her mother is going to convince her dad to stay for a few more days, Fang Su Jin could only come up with a lot of nonsense.

“Besides,” Fang Su Jin turned to her friend. “Li Xue and her family are here. We already planned to go play around the city.”

Zhang Li Xue was still trying to hold her laughter as she witnessed the mother and daughter’s exchange when Mother Fang suddenly looked at her. She flashed a polite smile and spoke, “That’s right, Auntie.”

Mother Fang alternated her gaze between the two girls.

The way her mother was looking at her made her heartbeat accelerate. Her mother knew her best and Fang Su Jin was really worried that her mother was going to find out that she was hiding something.

After a while, Mother Fang finally heaved a sigh. “Forget it then. You young people should go and play around together. I won’t be able to join most of your activity anyway.”

Fang Su Jin wanted to say a few more sweet words to coax her mother. But as she was afraid that it might backfire, Fang Su JIn decided not to speak any nonsense that would make her mother change her mind.

Her parents always doted on her. Fang Su Jin was aware that if her mother asked her father to spend a few more days in F Country, her father would eventually agree.

Fang Su Jin quickly changed the topic before her mother would rethink her decision about staying a few days longer.

The food arrived and the group had their lunch together before they separated.

As the Fang couple had arrived in F Country last night, the two of them decided to return to the hotel and rest.

Fang Su Jin heaved a breath of relief, knowing that she did not have to continue and pretend in front of her parents. Pretending in front of her parents was too tiring.
