"What is it Huiling? Did Huang do something inappropriate?" Linda curiously inquired.
"Tell me if he did and I'll kick his—"
Cutting Songpa off, Huiling quickly said, "No dad, Huang did not do anything and it's not like you think. What I am about to say includes both of us together and its very important too so you all need to calm down and listen to it carefully."
"Okay, so what is it?" Beth asked.
Intertwining their hands together, Huiling took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Huang and I, we are together and we are dating for months now." Without waiting for their reply, she explained further, "Like I know this is weird but—"
"Damn it, you are good for nothing Huang. Are you really my son?" Robbin grunted before grumpily taking out his wallet and giving a bunch of cash to Songpa.
Grinning from ear to ear, Songpa took the bunch of cash from Robbin and stated, "See I told you."
When Beth cleared her throat, Songpa gave the money to her. "Yes, you were right honey."
Taking the cash, Beth chuckled, "She was inside me for nine months, I know my daughter more than you do."
Looking at their parents who were juggling with a bunch of cash, Huang frowned, "What is happening here? Did we miss something?"
"You should keep shut or maybe dig a hole and bury yourself because you just made your father lose money," Robbin fumed.
Smacking his arm, Linda frowned, "Don't scold my son, can't you see how scared he was?"
"Wait a minute, you guys already knew about us?" Huiling inquired.
Giving his daughter a half shrug, Songpa chuckled, "It wasn't hard to figure out, well, you both are really bad liars too."
"Then what about that lowkey warning that you gave me a few days back?" Huang curiously inquired,
"Ah that was just to scare the shit out of you. I mean, I did not think it would work but surprisingly it did so—"
Cutting Songpa off, Robbin scrunched his brows, "You scared Huang? That was against the rules, you broke the rules so give me my money back."
"What rules? I don't remember setting any rules. It was just a simple bet and—"
Cutting them off, Huiling curiously asked, "What's with the bet now? And why are you guys trading money?"
Awkwardly clearing his throat, Songpa explained, "Well after we confirmed our suspicion, we decided to play a little bet with real money and—"
"But how did you all find out about us in the first place?"Findd new stories at novelhall.com
Cutting her off, he started kneading her shoulders, "Let me give me a nice massage to calm you down."
Leaning against his chest, she sighed, "This is way too easy than I thought." Huiling had prepared a whole speech to make their parents believe that they loved each other but things went pretty smoothly so she did not get a chance to use it.
"Hmm it did but isn't it for the best?"
Keeping quiet for quite some time, Huiling pouted her lips, "i knew mom would give me a normal reaction but dad, his reaction did not make sense. I know my dad and he is not someone who is usually okay with things like this."

Beth and Songpa's room
"Alright honey, take a few deep breaths," Beth instructed.
"I cannot believe that she really has a boyfriend and she is actually dating that Chen guy," Songpa snapped.
"But we knew about this already right? We even had played the bet with—"
Cutting her off, he gritted his teeth, "Oh I had agreed to that because I wanted to look cool."
Scrunching her brows, she inquired, "But you also gave them you blessings."
"Because that rat gave them his blessings, I didn't want to look like the black sleep and narrow minded in front of him. I mean what would Huiling think of her father? I didn't want her to think that Huang's father was better than hers," he answered. No he wasn't okay with his daughter dating someone, in fact, he wasn't even okay with her staying all by herself in some other apartment.
"Wait a second, so you did this to make yourself look cooler than Robbin?" When Songpa nodded his head, she helplessly shook her head and sighed, "You are unbelievable, you are the father of two twenty-five year old adults and yet you still behave like a kid."
"We need to do something to break them off and then we will bring Huiling with us. This way, she will forever live with us and—"
"Do you think that planning to break off your daughters relationship with the man she loves will make you look cool?"
"Obviously it won't, but it will make a responsible father and—"
"No Songpa, that will make you look bad and your daughter will hate you for meddling with her personal affairs." After taking a deep, Beth sighed and made her way towards the bed, "I really can't deal with you right now, I need to sleep and take some rest."
"What if Huang is cheating on her? What if he already has another—" he stopped midway when a cushion landed straight on his face.
"Sleep otherwise I'll throw you out of the room," she snarled.
Left with no other choice, Songpa sighed and crawled to his side of the bed.
Wrapping her arms around his waist, she snuggled closer. "Huiling is happy so as good parents, we should be happy for her too. You can't just break them off and even if you do, think how badly that will hurt Huiling and huang as well." Pausing for a while, she added, "Our daughter is big enough to take her own decisions and it is her decision to be with Huang."
Without saying anything, he kissed the top of her head and sighed.
