Chapter 246 Who are you...? (1/2)

When all the baby stuff was all cleared by the maids, Lexi and Ethan Lu sat beside each other, Frederick Yang on the head seat still had the baby costume on his lap, and Lillian Yang across her daughter and future son-in-law.

Lexi still had this displeased frown on her lips as she altered her gloomy gaze from her mother to her father with her arms crossed.

”I really can't believe you two, Mom, Dad. How can you buy so much baby stuff— I haven't even said anything. How can you be so sure that Ethan and I—” Like a scolding mother sitting her children down, Lexi grumbled alas, just when she was about to say that Ethan and her did the deed, Lexi abruptly stopped.

”Lexi, don't be like that. We were just preparing, right honey?” Justifying their actions, Lillian Yang explained and then turned to her husband for back up. Upon seeing the deadly glare from his wife, Frederick Yang lightly coughed and cleared his throat.

”Yes, your mother is right. We were just thinking that you're already in the right age to start a family of your own and if that happens, we just want to be prepared.” Doing a good job, Lillian Yang smiled and averted her soft gaze back across to her daughter.

”See? We just want to be prepared.” Once again, Lillian Yang repeated to affirm their reason behind their shopping spree of baby equipment and clothes.

”Anyway, since that's already settled, baby, did the both of you visit Morris?” Lillian Yang smoothly diverted their discussion and didn't let Lexi retort from their unconvincing reasonings. Hence, she asked. Lillian Yang wasn't being inconsiderate of Ethan Lu for asking such a question as she believed that Ethan Lu was mature enough to understand.

The actual question was, if Lexi indeed grew up a little and had moved forward just like she had claimed. It was also a good opportunity to test if Lexi should lessen her therapy just like she requested from them weeks ago.

”Yes, Mom. We dropped by there before I drove Lexi home.” Ethan Lu gently responded with a smile that made the yang parents nod in satisfaction. Just like they expected, Ethan Lu was kind enough not to let the past be a hindrance in their relationship and was still concerned with Morris Liu, as he was still his friend.

They knew that Ethan Lu was friends with Morris Liu as he admitted it before in one of his visits. He also told them he was ashamed for what his friend caused them and apologized. Therefore, both Frederick and Lillian Yang admired Ethan Lu's honesty and sincerity, not just for their daughter but his respect towards them.

Also, they were somehow moved because finally, someone actually bothered to apologize for what Morris Liu did to their daughter even though it didn't personally came from his mouth. Still, they appreciated Ethan Lu's thoughts and for giving them ease for that matter.

”That's good to hear then,” Nodding lightly, Lillian Yang gently responded before reaching for a cup of tea on the small table.

”Actually, Mom, Dad, I am here because I want to tell you something.” Clearing his throat, Ethan Lu straightened his posture as he placed both his palms on top of her palm.

”Lexi's pregnant?” Out of nowhere, Lillian Yang immediately asked as she stopped herself from taking a sip of her tea. In her mind, this sentence, normally, was the first sentence being uttered before the 'I am pregnant' part.

”Mom!” In disbelief, Lexi bellowed as she could not believe her mother having such ridiculousness!

”Hehe, no, Mom but Lexi and I decided that she would move into my place.” Ethan Lu slightly chuckled and didn't go in circles as he bluntly dived to the main topic.

Upon hearing Ethan Lu's short and clear explanation, a momentary silence was dawned on the whole living area. Neither of them talked for a while as Lillian and Frederick Yang processed this sudden decision. On the other hand, Lexi already gave up from talking as she was still embarrassed and actually nervous once again thinking if she was pregnant or not. Meanwhile, Ethan Lu gave them a moment to absorb his news.

”Dear, did you really agreed to this?” After getting a clear comprehension of Ethan Lu's words, Lillian Yang directly stared at Lexi with an unreadable thought beneath her pair of eyes.

”Mhmm, we calculated my travel time from here to my class and it would be a hassle, so if I live temporarily at Ethan's, my travel time will be reduced by half.” Nonchalantly shrugging, Lexi explained yet, her mood hadn't changed one bit.

Since her parents were too excited to have grandchildren, Lexi already guessed that they would gladly understand the idea. They might even personally pack her things and drive her to Ethan Lu's place.

”Is that so?” Solemnly nodded in understanding, Frederick Yang's expression turned stern as if he was contemplating whether or not he should let his daughter live under the same roof with a man.
