Avenger's coming back

Chapter 135 The Parent's Meeting

Time passed quickly when they were at school. Soon it was Friday. Lily hadn't seen Eric for two days, not even had a call. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Sometimes even when Lily called him, there was no answer. And when she sent messages, there was no reply, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

The class was over in the afternoon. Lily and Becky walked towards the school gate arm in arm.

"Remember our agreement. Let's watch a movie tomorrow night, Lily," Becky reminded her while walking.

"Okay." Lily answered casually.

"Okay, I'll call you then."

"Okay."

Beep!

Right after they walked out of the gate of the school, they heard a harsh trumpet, which made them look up at the same time.

The window was rolled down. Eric was looking at them through the window. "Come here, girl," He shouted to Lily.

Lily asked in surprise. She didn't expect to see Eric here.

"Girl..." Becky mumbled the name, then she trembled, "What a sweet name! How could Eric come up with such an idea?"

"He has always called me that." Lily answered casually.

With curiosity shining on her face, Becky asked curiously, "Then how did you call him?"

Lily answered casually, "I'll call him by his name."

As they were chatting, they completely ignored the fact that Eric was waiting for her in the car, so that the slightly impatient sound of urging.

"Girl, let's go. Or our parents will be waiting for a long time."

It was not until then that Lily realized that today was the meeting time for their parents.

"Coming." Then she let go of Becky's hand and said, "Becky, I'm leaving. I'm going to meet parents tonight. We can't be late."

Hearing this, Becky couldn't help laughing out. She waved her hand and said, "Go, go, go to meet your parents."

Lily then got on Eric's car in a hurry.

After she sat down, Eric started the car and left. When the car steadily drove on the main road, he began to speak, "Girl, I haven't called you back or texted you back. Are you angry with me?"

"What do you think?" Lily turned to him and asked.

"Don't be angry." Eric reached out a hand and rubbed her hair, saying, "I didn't take my common phone with me all the time. And my grandfather has been in the intensive care unit these days, and I've been around him all the time. I didn't dare to disturb him."

"Is he alright now?" Lily asked with concern. Although she was a little dissatisfied with Eric for not replying her messages these days, she couldn't get mad at him for being unreasonable?

"Now his condition is stable. Otherwise, how can I come back from G city?" Replied Eric.

"Eric," Lily asked hesitantly.

Looking at her, he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Is your grandpa and your mother don't have a good relationship, right?" Lily asked hesitantly, "Noble told me last time that you went to G city to see your grandfather and asked me not to tell your mother. I feel a little strange."

"Yeah, they don't get on well." Eric didn't plan to hide anything about this from her. He continued, "In order to marry my father, my mother severed the father daughter relationship with the grandfather..."

From the beginning to the end, Eric roughly told her the things about Angela and the Sun family.

"So it is." Lily did not realize the relationship until she heard his words.

"So my mother and father didn't oppose us being together. What they worried about was that I would develop the same path with them again and strain the relationship with the Gu family. It was not until at their age that they realized regret."

Lily nodded her head. Every family had their own skeleton in the closet, and they all had their own stories.

"Please don't mention it to my mother during dinner." "I went to the G City in secret this time, but I told them that I went to a friend's home."

"Okay." Lily nodded.

The dinner place was promised by them. As children, Lily and Eric just needed to go to the reserved place.

After they arrived at their destination and parked the car, Eric and Lily walked into a private room led by a waiter.

"You're coming. Come on in." Seeing them at the door, Tina waved to them hurriedly.

"Mom." Lily went inside with a smile, and then greeted the others with a smile, "Hello, Aunt, uncle Richard, uncle Kerr."

Angela and Richard smiled and nodded in response.

"Aunt Tina, uncle Kerr, Dad, mom," Like Lily, Eric also greeted them.

"Come and sit down." Tina asked them to sit down.

"Thank you, aunt Tina." Eric said politely, but he did not sit down first. Instead, he pulled out the chair for Lily, after which he pulled out the chair next to her and sat down next to her.

At this time, Kerr waved to the waiter at the door of the private room, "Let's start serving."

"Okay, everyone, please wait for a moment." Then he turned around and walked out of the room with respect.

"The two families formally meet today. We can take it as an agreement to the issue between our children." The one who spoke was Angela. She gave a glance at Tina and Kerr, "From now on, we have been in laws in this family. The education of our two children, we will have more responsibilities."

"I understand what you mean." Tina continued with a smile, "We have one more child, so we have to be more responsible. You should also pay more attention to your study. For the time being, the most important thing is your study."

She said the last sentence to both Eric and Lily.

"Right. At present, the most important thing for you is your study." She looked at her son and emphasized, "Especially you, Eric, you should hurry up. Lily is good."

"Mom, I know. Don't worry. Your son won't embarrass you." Said Eric with a smile.

Dissatisfied, Angela glanced at him and said, "Your grades are so bad, how could say that?" Lily did a good job. She didn't feel ashamed."

"Mom, you have to trust your son. I can do what Lily is capable of." Said Eric slowly.

Hearing that, Lily turned her head and glanced at him. She felt incredible. She nudged his arm and whispered, "Don't talk big."

Turning his head to look at her, Eric smiled and said, "I don't need to lie to you. Let's see the final result of the final examination of the semester."

Lily knew he was smart. But seeing that he was so confident, she kind of believed him. She achieved what she had today just because she took advantage of her previous life.

"Eric, don't forget what you have said to me." Kerr said, "You promised me when Lily was in hospital after a car accident."

"Uncle Kerr. I didn't forget it." Eric replied smilingly, looking at him.

"Yes, I'm looking forward to it." He looked at him with smile.

"I won't let you down." Eric replied calmly.

As for their conversation, everyone looked at them in confusion.

Finally, Tina couldn't help but ask, "What charades are you playing?"

He smiled and explained, "I once said that if I were a man of the school board, I would not let my students fall in love with each other at an early age. Of course, it is just a matter of principle. But if they can encourage each other, help each other and make great progress in their study, I can turn a blind eye to it, as if I don't know."

"Have you made such a promise to Uncle Kerr?" Lily turned to look at him and asked in a low voice.

Under the table, Eric held her hand and said, "When you had the car accident, I was too inconsiderate to drop out of school. As a result, you were so angry that you even vomited. To get the approval of Kerr, I had no choice but to make such a promise."

Hearing his words, Lily remembered something. But she did not expect that he would make such a promise.

Although they talked in a low voice, Angela, who was sitting on the other side of Eric, heard it. She looked at Lily with more satisfaction and could not help smiling.

She recalled that no matter what she said to him before, he was always lazy and neglected everything. His behavior in the Gu family was also like this. Recently, his attitude had improved a lot.

He paid more attention to his company affairs in particular. Boys were not girls, and he had his own business which was more important than anything else.

"You two can encourage each other and make progress together, which is a great relief for us as adults." The man, who had been sitting silently all the time, said, "But I have to say something first..."

Richard paused, as if trying to find a way to say it, or hesitating to say it.

Hearing what he said, everyone looked at him and waited for him to continue.

After waiting for a long time, he still didn't say anything. Angela couldn't help but nudge him with her arm and urged, "Don't you have something to say? Why do you stop?"

"Well, what I want to say is..." He cleared his throat, looked at Eric and Lily, and said, "Although we have agreed to your being together, I hope you can know that… I can't bear the rumors anymore. It's not that I'm goofy, it's just that you're too young to undertake some responsibilities. Do you understand?"

He heaved a sigh of relief after he finished his sentence. It was difficult for a man to say these words.

Everyone understood what he meant.
