Xander shouldn't have pressured you to introduce him to your parents right now, it's not the appropriate time for meeting your family. Since he entered the house and sat on the expensive sofa with you, your parents' faces stiffened, they appeared quite serious and displeased outwardly. They spoke a lot about him, mostly focusing on his background and expressing disapproval of both of you dating.

Xander could only purse his lips and remain silent. Afterward, he quickly stood up, bowed politely instead of saying goodbye, and swiftly walked out of your house. You tried to follow him.

Xander turned back to look at you with a sorrowful gaze. He wiped away tears from the corner of his reddened eyes with the back of his hand. His cheeks flushed, a mix of anger and frustration because his self-esteem has been trampled. He softly said

"I think it's better for us not to see each other for a while."
