Zhang Feng and Shen Hanshan were both dumbfounded.

Especially Shen Hanshan.

His own daughter actually claimed to be a mistress.

You damn... this damn...

His obedient daughter who used to be so well-behaved, why does she speak so recklessly now?

It's all because of that brat Zhang Feng!!

Zhang Feng, give me back my obedient daughter!!!

Zhang Feng also looked stiff.

What happened last night once again flashed in his mind.

This Shen Xing'Er...

Did you really start your period before yesterday?

Could it be that you calculated your period was coming and decided to attack me the night before, then seamlessly pretend the next day that you had nothing to do with it?!

Especially Zhang Feng clearly felt Shen Hanshan's eerie gaze.

This evidently places all blame on me!

Won't this old brother Shen Hanshan think I've turned his daughter into this and intend to make a move on me?

"Um..."

Just as Zhang Feng's voice was awkwardly about to speak, Shen Hanshan unexpectedly said first:

"Actually..."

"Xing'Er is right."

"What?!"

Zhang Feng looked at Shen Hanshan, utterly confused.

What do you mean she's right?

Do you agree she's a mistress too?

No way, brother, this is your biological daughter!

With Zhang Feng's current expression, Shen Hanshan's eyes twitched.

Does he really want to say such a thing?

But he had to admit, his daughter was indeed right!

"Ahem!" Shen Hanshan coughed trying to stabilize his mood, then spoke to Zhang Feng:

"Since you want to hide your identity for a covert investigation, our preparation has to be more detailed."

"Xing'Er's suggestion is something I hadn't considered."

"It indeed makes no sense for you to sneak away on a trip alone without Lin Rui knowing."

"So... Xing'Er can definitely assist you."

Oh~

So that's what you meant!

Zhang Feng internally let out a sigh of relief.

Scared me for a second, thought you were admitting your daughter was a mistress!

But in the next moment.

Shen Hanshan suddenly stood up and actually grabbed Zhang Feng by the collar.

This sudden action almost made Zhang Feng instinctively throw Shen Hanshan over his shoulder.

Shen Hanshan spoke seriously, with a hint of threat in his voice, to Zhang Feng:

"But remember!"

"My daughter is only playing your mistress, she isn't one for real, understood?!"

"This is my daughter Shen Hanshan's daughter!"

Uh...

So you still care about this after all~

Zhang Feng sighed helplessly, ready to speak when suddenly Shen Xing'Er, sitting beside him, was quicker.

With a small slap on Shen Hanshan's hand gripping Zhang Feng's collar, she said:

"What are you doing?!"

"You dare lay hands on my brother Zhang Feng?!"

"Let go, or I'm going to be angry!!!"

Oh boy!

Shen Hanshan almost cried at this moment!

Am I raising a daughter for Zhang Feng?!

Waa waa waa waa—

As a father, I am really...

Jealous, so jealous it's unbearable.

Letting go of Zhang Feng, Shen Hanshan's eyes were filled with grievance, almost like water pouring out endlessly.

Jealousy!

He never thought he would be jealous over his own daughter one day!

Especially seeing Shen Xing'Er now, carefully tidying Zhang Feng's collar, constantly soothing him.

Shen Hanshan's heart ached painfully at the thought.

Even the breakfast on the table lost its appeal.

With resentment, he said:

"I'm full!"

Then stood up and returned to his room, slamming the door shut.

Who knows if he was crying his heart out under the covers.

Anyway, Zhang Feng seemed to hear a sobbing sound.

But Shen Xing'Er seemed entirely unconcerned. After tidying Zhang Feng's collar, she looked at him with a delightful surprise and said:

"Brother Zhang Feng, you can stay at my place tonight!"

"Come sleep in the same room as me tonight!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Feng instantly inhaled sharply, looking at Shen Xing'Er and exaggeratedly said:

"You're up to no good! You're definitely up to no good!"

"Seriously tell me, was it you last night?!"

Shen Xing'Er, looking puzzled:

"What do you mean me? What happened last night?"

Facing Shen Xing'Er's bewildered eyes, Zhang Feng squinted slightly and said:

"Are you really unaware of what you did last night?"

"What did I do?!" Shen Xing'Er exaggerated in response:

"I just drank with you guys last night, then fell asleep. When I woke up, it was morning, my stomach hurt real bad, I didn't even wash my face and just went home, what did I do?"

Her eyes even took on a hint of nostalgic expression, as if genuinely recalling what happened last night.

Then, somewhat nervously and awkwardly, she said:

"Um... did I act out because I was drunk?"

The thought made Shen Xing'Er abruptly jump up, covering her face, bouncing on her feet:

"Oh no, oh no, oh no."

"Did I really act crazy because I was drunk?"

"Oh no... Brother Zhang Feng, let me explain, I'm not that kind of person, I usually don't drink!"

Seeing her manner now, Zhang Feng's expression softened slightly but quickly turned stiff again.

The current state of Shen Xing'Er...

Clearly she wasn't the sea conch girl from last night!

Is Shen Xing'Er pretending or is she genuinely ignorant?

If she's pretending, this performance is too good?

"Is it really not her?"

Zhang Feng fell into a brief silence.

"Then who could it be?"

For some unknown reason...

Before leaving this morning, Wang Qian appeared in Zhang Feng's mind, tying Mu Xue'Er's pigtails.

Zhang Feng instantly stiffened all over, shaking his head dramatically:

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible it was her! Absolutely could not be her!"

Convinced of this thought in his heart, he rapidly expelled all considerations regarding that matter from his mind.

He knew, he couldn't dwell on this issue anymore.

If he did, he'd really be driven insane!

Now, it's better to focus on the seven-year-old locked room murder case!

…

Southeast region, Rain City.

The sky was gloomy, with a slightly damp atmosphere permeating the air.

Shen Xing'Er affectionately clung to Zhang Feng's arm as they walked out of the airport.

Zhang Feng wore a shirt and casual trousers, his fitted clothes accentuating his tall figure, topped with his handsome face, like a male protagonist straight out of a dating simulator.

Against Zhang Feng's side, Shen Xing'Er wore a light blue dress similar to her first encounter with him.

Below the snow-white legs were high-heeled sandals, her crystal-clear feet emanating a faint allure.

The pair appeared like the perfect dreamy couple, heaven-made.

Walking in the airport's arrivals hall, they formed an eye-catching scene.

Many passersby couldn't help but stop and stare, witnessing those legendary figures that stood out radiantly in crowds.

Everyone's face bore palpable envy.

Yet, just as Zhang Feng was about to leave the airport hall with Shen Xing'Er, he suddenly halted, frowning slightly, looking toward a certain spot deep in the airport.

Shen Xing'Er looked curiously at Zhang Feng and asked:

"Brother Zhang Feng, what's wrong?"

Zhang Feng withdrew his look, shaking his head saying, "Nothing, let's head to the hotel."

Little did he know, where he just glanced, a drop of sweat appeared on a man's forehead behind an advertising board dressed in black.

Upon seeing Zhang Feng and Shen Xing'Er leave, the man sighed in relief.
