Chapter 12 Meeting Parents
Chapter 12 Meeting Parents
Next morning, when Lily woke up, she found Kevin wasn't sleep by her side.
When Kevin promised to accompany her to visit her mother, Lily was even more surprised, since when had Kevin become so easy-going.
When they arrived at the hospital, Lily followed the man. She felt a little uncomfortable when she heard the whispers and the glances from others time to time.
But the next second, she bumped into Kevin's strong back. The man's attractive voice sounded in her ear, "Why don't you look at your way. What are you thinking about?"
The moment he finished speaking, Lily felt an arm around her waist, "You...... What are you doing? We are in the hospital! "
Kevin said coldly, "If you want to let your mother know, just get rid of me."
What he said made her speechless. But she calmed down and heaved a sigh. "Let's go. Mom must have been waiting for a long time." Lily said with a smile.
As soon as she said this, she noticed that the people around her all looked at somewhere else.
After stopping in front of her mother's ward, she paused and pushed the door open.
When Holly saw that her daughter really brought back a good-looking man, her eyes lit up. "Lily, come here."
She came to her mother, and then gave a look at Kevin subconsciously, said, "Mom, he is what I mentioned about, my...... Boyfriend, Kevin. "
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that the man's gaze swept at her lightly. She turned her face away, pretending not to see it. She couldn't tell her mother that they had gotten the marriage license.
Holly nodded. "Kevin, I'm so sorry that let you come to hospital for the first meeting." As she said, she reached out and patted her daughter lightly. "But I feel relieved when I see you. This girl is quite playful and she has her own ideas about everything. It's good to have someone can look after her."
"Mom!" Lily shouted, she felt a little embarrassed.
Holly felt happy, she thought Lily stopped her because of shyness. With a little smile appeared on her face, she said, "I won't say anything more in case you are still shy."
Then Holly had some chit chats with them. Seeing that Kevin skillfully peeled an apple to her daughter, she was even more relieved. It seemed that her daughter didn't lie to her.
After leaving the hospital, Lily's face turned red and she could not speak.
It was a lie that she was not move by Kevin. She watched them all the time. Kevin promised her mother that he would treat her well. There was no trace of impatience on his face. He even peeled an apple himself, which made her mother happy.
Noticing the peculiar expression of Lily, Kevin didn't say anything but led her to the car.
"Let's go."
"Where are we going?"
There was a smile on Kevin's lips. "Since you want me to meet your parent, you should meet mine too. Let's go,"
Lily was shocked.
The car stopped outside the gate of Kevin's home. Lily still couldn't believe it.
"Why did you make the decision all of a sudden?"
However, Kevin still said in an apathetic voice, "there are many things to be discussed with them about preparing the wedding. It's good to see them earlier."
Wedding? Hearing these words, Lily was confused again.
As if he had foreseen Lily's reaction, Kevin looked up at her and said, "We should have a wedding ceremony since we are married." Don't try to escape.
"In return, I'll save your father after the wedding," Kevin continued.
The car slowly drove into the courtyard of his house, and she was led into directly. After a few steps, they saw a middle-aged man dressed in Chinese tunic clothes and holding a kettle in his hand. She heard Kevin's cold voice from her side, "father."
The man who looked ordinary was Kevin's father? She was slightly shocked, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Yes, I'm back." Vernon Qin waved the kettle in his hand and said, "come in and have a seat."
"Are you my sister-in-law?"
A girl with bright eyes and white teeth stood on the staircase. Her clothes brought out an elegant aura.
Lily sensed hostility from this girl.
Courtney Meng looked at Lily, who was half a head taller than her, and laughed slightly. "Look like a girl from an eminent family exactly."
"Courtney, watch your mouth!" Fiona Qin blamed.
"Well, aunt, I'm just praising her." As she walked to Fiona Qin's side, she said in a sweet voice, "my cousin has a good taste."
After Kevin and her mother left, Courtney Meng came upstairs and stared at her. "Mrs. Wen, you seem to be very nervous."
Her hostility was able to be sensed clearly, and when Lily heard Courtney Meng call her that, she raised her eyebrows. "No, I'm not. After all, I'm not the only outsider here."
Courtney Meng's face turned pale. "I'm not an outsider. I often live with my uncle and aunt."
"As for you, you are just a substitute. Why are you so senseless?"

Lily frowned.
'Is she trying to frighten me?'
She couldn't help sneering in her heart, but she remained mild on the surface. "Have you ever seen a substitute one can get married?"
Courtney Meng didn't expect that Lily would say that. Lily paused for a moment, and then she said in a cold voice, "a mistress barely speak loud in front of the lawful one, what's more, you like him unilateral...... How dare you were crowing here."
"You!" Hearing her words, Courtney Meng's heart skipped a beat. It was the first time that someone had laid bare her love for Kevin.
Seeing that she had read Courtney Meng's mind easily, Lily could not help but sneer.
'How dare you bully me?'
Courtney Meng couldn't swallow the insult anymore. Just when she was about to say something, she accidentally glanced at the person next to her. "Aunt, you're back."
"Aunt, we are talking about her love experiences. Before meeting my cousin, she had a finance."
With a sullen face, Lily replied with a smile, "we've broken up."
"He dumped you because the Wen group went bankrupt, didn't he?"
But before she could finish her words, Courtney Meng interrupted her. She had thought that she would see the embarrassed expression on Lily's face, but surprise, she was laughing out loud.
Lily waved her hand and said, "Courtney, don't mislead aunt. People who didn't know the truth would think that everyone in the world was so snobbish. I should thank him. Otherwise, I couldn't have met Kevin and married him."
As soon as she heard this, Courtney Meng's face changed a little. This woman could actually mock her for being snobbish. She bit her lips and said, "even if you say so, you can't guarantee that you don't love him anymore."
"Let bygones be bygones," Lily said, with a relaxed expression on her face. "Even if I think of him occasionally, I'm only glad that I've survived and cherished the present more." After a pause, she continued, "it's better than never been there but still hold wishful thinking."
