Chapter 65: Summer Breeze 

Chapter 65: Summer Breeze 

EMMA’s POV : 

"Are you sure this is a good idea?"lan asked nervously.

We were standing in front of my front door.

My parents and I were having dinner together tonight and I decided to bring lan home.

This was a big step for us.

Our relationship was on a whole new level now.

No more lies and sneaking around, we could be an official couple.

I'd been hiding him from my family for such a long time, I didn’t wanna do that anymore.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine,"I said reassuringly.

"We don't have to tell them everything right away, do we?"

"No, we don’t.I just want them to meet you and know who you are as a person.Everything else is just whatever,"

lan was still absolutely nervous when I opened the front door and pulled him inside.

"Emma? Is that you?"mom called out from the dining room.

lan kept taking deep breaths and letting out sighs.I gave him another reassuring smile before pulling him to the dining room.

"Mom, dad, I want you to meet lan, my boyfriend,"I announced to them.

"Mr.and Mrs.Sinclair, it's an honor to finally meet the both of you,"lan smiled brightly.

"Oh...hello,"mom was absolutely shocked.

Dad couldn't even say a word.

"Please, have a seat,"she said again after a while of awkward silence.

We took our seats in front of them and they watched lan like a hawk.

lan purposefully wore a long sleeved shirt today.

He wanted to appear formal for some reason.

"So, this is what you wanted to tell us all week long?"mom asked me.

I had been hinting at her that I wanted her to meet someone.

I smiled sheepishly and nodded at her.

"Mr.and Mrs.Sinclair, I'm very serious about your daughter.I would love your permission to date her,"

lan spoke, and their attention was directed back at him.

"Oh, well, um, lan, tell us about yourself,"mom said, "
