To Make Matters Worse
I Wish I Didn't Love You"Sweetheart let me introduce you to Miss. Meng Jia and her parents" my mother smiled brightly at me as I stared at the girl before me. Her lips wore a dark red lipstick complementing her pale complexion and long straight jet black hair. She was beautiful no doubt about it but I couldn't help but doubt my mothers intentions.
"Xiao Li!" my father chcukled as he greeted her father "Son this is my buddy from highschool who introduced me to your mother"
"Is that so" I smiled lightly but I couldn't help but try to think of a way to leave.
