Fortunately, Lin Jie's mother only glanced at them casually and didn't say much before walking away.
Qin Xiaoxu then turned her attention back to Lin Jie, but he was visibly avoiding her gaze. However, under Qin Xiaoxu's stern look, he had no choice but to tell the truth and spill the beans.
He lowered his voice and said, "I've been sending the selfies you gave me to my parents, so they know about our relationship. And even if I didn't, they would have pestered me to see them. I was going to tell them eventually, so when my mom asked if you were my girlfriend, I just admitted it~"
After hearing this, Qin Xiaoxu didn't react much, just took a deep sigh and said, "Phew, when I saw the look in your mother's eyes just now, my heart skipped a beat. Are you sure our act isn't going to be found out? I feel like if they discover the truth, I won't be able to face the consequences."
