Nian Jiezhen's eyes went wide upon seeing what her mother did. She stood up and was about to stop her before Ren s.h.i.+yuan's wig could let go but...

Nian Qi Liu" "..."

Jing Wanru: "..."

Her parents were rendered speechless at what just happened.

Jing Wanru was looking at the wig on her hand with a confused look on her face. She slowly turned to Ren s.h.i.+yuan and saw his tousled brown hair all so messy.

Ren s.h.i.+yuan raked his hair back and tilted his chin to the side, exposing his manly charms to Nian Jiezhen's parents. "Ah... princess, we've been found out."

He turned to Jing Wanru and Nian Qi Liu, "Auntie, uncle, please excuse me for a second, I'm just going to take my makeup off."

He took his bag and escaped the room while everyone was still in a state of shock. Instead of heading to the bathroom, he hurriedly walked toward the exit but he was stopped when XIa Meilin suddenly blocked his way.

"Where do you think are you going?"

"Meimei, do you want me to die? Nian Jiezhen's going to kill me!" He whisper-yelled.

"What kind of man are you? Leaving her behind just like that!"

"But she's going to kill me for real..."

...

Back in the living room...

Jing Wanru and Nian Qi Liu turned to their daughter. "What... was that?"

Nian Jiezhen snapped out of her trance. She automatically clenched her fists and started cursing Ren s.h.i.+yuan in her mind. That d*mn idiot! How dare he got caught?! Now she has to rack her brain for an excuse!"

"Um... mom, dad, I can explain..."

Explain her a.s.s! What kind of explanation should she give them?! Where is he anyway?!

"Xiao Xi is actually... my um... my boyfriend." She turned away from her parents, avoiding their inquiring gaze.

It was actually too much to take in for her parents. They have always wanted Nian Jiezhen to find a boyfriend and marry him but now that she has one, they don't know how to react. Should they be happy? Should they congratulate her? Where's that d.a.m.n boyfriend anyway?

"Why was he acting like a girl if he's actually a boy?" Nian Qi Liu asked seriously.

"Well you see... he's an actor and he was having a shoot when I called him to help me earlier. Since he rushed to my side, he wasn't able to change that is why we decided to go on with it."

Nian Jiezhen wanted to pat herself for finding a good excuse to use against her parents.

"He's an actor?" Jing Wanru raised a brow. Se never liked those kinds of men since they are exposed to a lot of women. She couldn't help but get worried for her daughter's sake. "How were you able to meet him if he's an actor?"

"Auntie, uncle, it's actually because of me." Xia Meilin came in to help Nian Jiezhen with her parents. She went and stood beside her. "His real name is Ren s.h.i.+yuan and he is a friend of mine. You don't have to worry about him, he's a pretty decent person."

For once in her life, Nian Jiezhen was thankful that Xia Meilin was on her side.

"I apologize for the act we had earlier." Ren s.h.i.+yuan came inside in all his splendor, making Jing Wanru and her husband squint their eyes from all the brightness that was coming from him. It was a good thing that he wasn't wearing a dress that day.

Ren s.h.i.+yuan went to stand on the other side of Nian Jiezhen. When he held her hand, Nian Jiezhen gave it a hard squeeze as if she was crus.h.i.+ng his hand.

Despite the pain he was feeling, Ren s.h.i.+yuan maintained a smile on his face. He was already prepared to die, he just hope that Nian Jiezhen will not torture him.

"It was my suggestion to come here, dress like this. We were planning to tell you the truth after the small prank we played, right, princess?"

Nian Jiezhen had no choice but to go along with him. She badly wanted to beat him up. Her plans are all ruined because of him!
