51 MEET THE PARENTS (2/2)

”Even a seven-year-old? You're so cute! Alright; Remind me to get the documents when we go back.” An amused Zunnie replied.

”Ah pumpkin, you're here. What's so funny.” A loud voice said.

”Papa!” Zunnie Walked to meet and hugged her beloved father. Whenever she was home she was different. She usually behaved like an overly pampered teenager around her dad. Even if he did unnecessary things, she would always love him.

”Pumpkin you look beautiful... but today it's not about you. Is this my son in law?” Wan Bai said jokingly.

”Mhm, dad this is Alexander Zi.”

Wan Bai walked over to where Alex stood and gave him a firm handshake. So, this is the handsome man taking my pumpkin away from me…” His authoritative voice did not scare Alex one bit.

Alex returned his handshake and chuckled.

”Mr. Bai, it's a pleasure to finally meet you. Sorry to say, but no more blind dates from now on...” Alex replied.

Wan Bai burst into laughter and glanced over at Zunnie and said, ”Pumpkin you did well. I think Mr. Zi will do just fine.”

After he spoke to Zunnie, he turned to Alex with a serious and cold expression, ”…and if she ever calls unhappy, or if you hurt my beautiful pumpkin over there, I will bury you. Your name won't even matter.” Wan Bai patted Alex on the back after his threat; leaving a stunned Alex to compose himself.

Eyan and Selina had joined them for dinner and they had an uneventful gathering. Everyone admired Alex; especially her father who kept reiterating how much he was fond of Alex. Wan Bai also commended Alex on how impressive he has been with his business tactics. Mr. Bai was pleased with Alex's success because he stayed up to date with what happened in the business world.

Before the drove back to their condos Alex spoke to the men of the Bai family and said;

”I'm good at making promises. I would like you to know I've never been serious about a girl until I met your daughter. I am aware that I am the first person she's ever brought home and I promise you that I will be the last. I am vowing to protect Zunnie with my life because she means the world to me. Please trust me. Thank you for allowing your only daughter to be my wife.”

Both Eyan and Wan Bai were left speechless. Wan Bai was close to tears hearing how sincere Alex was and couldn't help joking…

”I do,” and all three men laughed.

On the way home, they both were in a good mood. It was cold November night and Zunnie held onto to Alex's warm hand as he drove them back to their condo. Alex beamed inside, imagining what it would feel like driving her back to the house he was designing for them to live in after they got married.
