Chapter 366 many firsts ahead (1/2)

After leaving their new home, Lu Tian sat in the driver seat of his car as he drives them in the direction of the Lu Family Household. In the passenger seat, Yue Ling stared down at the nicely wrapped gift on her lap.

When they left the house, she had nagged Lu Tian to take her to buy a gift. Since this is going to be her first time meeting his parents, she wanted to buy a gift for them instead of visiting empty handed.

Staring down at the nicely wrapped gift in red, she slightly purse her lip and looks at the man driving.

”Are you sure they will like this?”

”Mm.”

Lu Tian answers her without moving his eyes away from the road. He slows the car to a stop at a red light and turn to look at her.

”They will like the gift. My mother and father prefer simple gifts more than they do prestige ones.”

His words fell just as the red light turns green. Stepping on the accelerator, he drives the car forward again.

Yue Ling's eyes remained on the side view of the man's face. She part her lips to say something, but in the end, she could only open and close them without a word escaping.

Since Lu Tian already said his parents would like the gift, she can't argue with him. After all, he had helped choose it and he knows his parents more than she does.

Deciding this, she stays in silence and turns to look out the window to distract herself from being nervous.

Never did she know that meeting your partner's family would be so nerve wrecking, especially when it came to buying a gift.

Staring at the view of the setting sun in the distance, she quietly sighs inside, and her thoughts began to travel to her past.

When Shin was still here, she never had the chance to meet his parents. Not because she didn't want to, but because they had also left the world like her parents when he was young. Whereas, Shin's only family left was his sister, Hana. However, Hana and she were already friends before she met Shin.

Remembering her past, her eyes slowly close and she couldn't help but inhale a deep breath.

”What's wrong?”

Focusing on driving, Lu Tian suddenly hears her sigh and he asks without turning to look at her.

”I was just thinking.”

Yue Ling answers him as she opens her eyes again. She turns to look at him but does not say anymore.

She knows that it is unfair to think of the past that is longer there, but she is also thankful. If her past never happened, her present wouldn't be here.

The past that she had with Shin allowed her present to meet Lu Tian.

”What's on your mind?”

Lu Tian subconsciously asks as he turns the car into another road. For him to hear her sigh, he has a feeling that she must have thought about her past. Even though he asked, he doesn't expect her to answer if she doesn't want to.
