Chapter 141 - Wrong Son (1/2)

That night, Halia arrived at a seafood restaurant near the wharf. From the restaurant, there was a beautiful view of the Pearl River Estuary and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge that connected Hong Kong to Macau and the mainland of China.

At night, when the skies were clear, it was a beautiful sight to see.

As soon as Halia walked into the restaurant, she spotted Emerson and his parents waiting for her. But, to her surprise, she also spotted another familiar person.

”Dad?” Halia asked in surprise as she approached.

Halia was shocked. She hadn't seen her father for almost a year. What was he doing in Macau?

Halia's father walked over to his dear daughter and gave her a hug. ”Auntie Emma and Uncle Jack told me about you and Emerson, so I came to see my future son-in-law. Why didn't you tell me that you're dating Emerson?” he asked.

Halia looked at her father in confusion. Future son-in-law? Dating?

At that moment, Mother Wu nudged her son. ”Go and pull out a seat for your girlfriend,” she said.

Emerson immediately glanced at his mother awkwardly. ”I heard what you said to Marissa the other day, so I decided to ask around. Supposedly, the two of you were already very intimate at the ball last month. No wonder you brought her back to our place. Why didn't you tell us that you and Haili were a couple? Don't you think that your parents deserve to know?”

”That's not it, Mom. I think...”

Father Feng looked at the young man with disappointment, ”Were you planning to avoid taking responsibility?”

Halia shook her father's arm, ”Dad, Emerson's not like that. I think there's a misunderstanding.”

”Look at you, you're already sticking up for him...” the old man groaned.

At that moment, Father Wu stood up and said calmly, ”Let's all sit down and have a proper chat. Henry, you don't have to worry, Emerson has always been very responsible. He will definitely take good care of your daughter.”

Halia's father nodded his head and sat down. ”Yes, I know that Emerson has always been the responsible one. Unlike your other son...what was his name again? Is he still involved with the gangs?”
