Half baked lies

Yi Chen's entire body stiffened and his heart beat accelerated when he heard what his father's said. Yes, he would love to go on a date with Zi Han as himself but not as Hanifa.

The fact his parents had noticed..... no, the fact that his mother had noticed something already shocked him.

He had made the least effort to hide his interest in Zi Han but he didn't think it would be this obvious that his mother would notice from one interaction.

Now that the milk had been spilled there was no way to put it back into the carton. The only thing he could do now was tell his father half-baked truths.

This was also to make his parents back off otherwise if they intervene there will be no guarantee that he would ever be able to be with Zi Han in this lifetime.
