This pitiful voice tugged at the hearts of many officers in the hall.
Yet their eyes all held a hint of surprise.
Because Mu Xue'Er had been here for a long time.
She was polite, kind, sensible, and even patiently accepted requests for photos from the adults.
Yet there was always a hint of aloofness in her demeanor.
But the moment Zhang Feng appeared,
without even wearing his uniform, or saying a word to Mu Xue'Er.
Mu Xue'Er immediately walked up to him.
She even grabbed hold of Zhang Feng's big hand?
Mu Xue'Er shouldn't even know Zhang Feng's identity.
So why did she assume Zhang Feng would help her find her mother?
Could it be that Zhang Feng had some inexplicable aura that attracted children?
Wow...
We can't let them speculate any longer.
If they keep guessing like this,
Zhang Feng will almost seem like a creep!
The crisp voice of Mu Xue'Er made Zhang Feng pause slightly.
Because in Mu Xue'Er's eyes, he noticed a hint of reliance.
Zhang Feng understood.
The younger the child, the purer their heart.
And their eyes are clearer.
They can see things as pure as themselves.
Even if Zhang Feng wasn't completely pure,
he was, after all, a future Celestial Master!
He naturally emitted an aura that these pure children would like.
It was precisely because of this aura that Mu Xue'Er felt drawn to Zhang Feng.
Seeing Mu Xue'Er on the verge of tears.
Zhang Feng naturally wouldn't ignore her, slowly squatting down, gently patting her on the head.
This action, for some reason, gave Mu Xue'Er a warm feeling, and she even leaned into Zhang Feng's chest, snuggling into his arms.
This scene caused a twinge of envy in all those around.
Some even complained inwardly, wondering how they could compare to Zhang Feng.
Why was Zhang Feng so attractive to kids?!
Of course, Zhang Feng wasn't bothered by these onlookers, and he whispered in Mu Xue'Er's ear:
"Don't worry, uncle will surely help you find your mom!"
Uncle?
After saying this, Zhang Feng's face suddenly froze.
He realized why Mu Xue'Er called Lin Rui and Hu Huixin "sister", but called him "uncle"?
"Do I really look that old?"
Zhang Feng thought a bit discontentedly.
Just then, a melodious and magnetic female voice resonated through the hall:
"Hello, is my daughter... here?"
Hearing this ethereal voice, everyone froze.
Then, their faces were instantly filled with joy as they turned quickly.
They saw an elegant woman with flowing long hair, in a light blue one-piece dress that accentuated her perfect figure.
A few stray strands graced her swan-like neck, delicately stirring everyone's emotions.
The black mask couldn't hide the starlit eyes.
"Mu Qianqian?!"
No one knew who first shouted out her name!
The entire hall instantly buzzed with excitement!
"Is it really Mu Qianqian?"
"Oh dear! She's so beautiful! This is the closest I've ever been to Mu Qianqian!"
"Mu Qianqian, can we take a photo?"
"Can you sign an autograph for me?!"
"..."
Fortunately, these people were officers with professional ethics.
Even though they were quite excited, they didn't go crazy like fans do when they meet their idols.
They just stood in place, expectantly watching Mu Qianqian, eager to approach!
Even Hu Huixin and Lin Rui were hard-pressed to contain their excitement.
They saw Mu Qianqian.
With Mu Xue'Er nestled in his arms, Zhang Feng also saw Mu Qianqian.
However, contrary to everyone's expectations,
Mu Xue'Er didn't show the excitement or attachment one would expect after finding her mother.
Instead, she leaned further into Zhang Feng's embrace!
It was Mu Xue'Er's unusual reaction that made Zhang Feng more certain that the Mu Qianqian in front of him was not the same Mu Qianqian.
Mu Qianqian carried herself like a true celebrity.
Gracefully greeting her fans and expressing her gratitude.
She even removed her mask to agree to their request for a photo.
With her mask off, Mu Qianqian's charm increased yet another level.
Many men present couldn't help but be dazzled.
Though not Zhang Feng.
After mingling with the fans for a while, Mu Qianqian approached Mu Xue'Er.
Seeing her daughter nestled in a stranger's arms, a flicker of surprise crossed her eyes.
But she maintained a maternal smile as she opened her arms to Mu Xue'Er, softly saying:
"Xue'Er, you mustn't run off again~"
"Doing so causes trouble for the police officers!"
"Come, we're going home!"
No one expected Mu Xue'Er's reaction to be so intense.
She clutched Zhang Feng's neck tightly and suddenly let out a piercing scream,
"I don't want to!"
"You're not my mom!!!"
This sudden change left everyone momentarily stunned.
Their gazes grew peculiar.
Mu Qianqian's expression instantly froze.
But she quickly regained composure, crouching down and continuing gently:
"Xue'Er, would it help if Mom apologized to you~"
"I know I have been busy with the concert and neglected you, that's my fault."
"I promise, no matter how busy I get, I won't forget to spend time with you, okay~"
Mu Qianqian's words made the bystanders who were unaware of the whole situation understand.
So, mother and daughter were just having a squabble!
Yes, Mu Xue'Er might seem mature, but she's still a child in need of parental company.
It's normal for her to be upset when her mother is too busy.
However, the look in Hu Huixin and Lin Rui's eyes changed subtly!
The two had previously listened to Zhang Feng's analysis at the lodge.
Initially, they were already somewhat skeptical.
Now, with Mu Xue'Er—Mu Qianqian's daughter—being so resistant to Mu Qianqian.
Their suspicions spiked.
The two exchanged a glance, surprise written all over their faces:
"Could Zhang Feng actually be right?"
Zhang Feng continued observing Mu Qianqian's eyes, saying nothing.
Meanwhile, Mu Xue'Er was trying to burrow deeper into his arms, pleading:
"Uncle, help Xue'Er, help Xue'Er...."
The sound of Mu Xue'Er tugged at the heartstrings!
Just then, another woman's voice came from behind Mu Qianqian:
"Xue'Er, so you're here! Aunt was so worried about you!"
It was Wang Qian, Mu Xue'Er's manager.
The scene that followed was unexpectedly different.
Hearing this voice, Mu Xue'Er lifted her head from Zhang Feng's embrace, and with a jubilant face, she opened her arms and tottered towards Wang Qian.
Calling out in a clear voice: "Aunt Wang!"
She bypassed Mu Qianqian entirely, diving into Wang Qian's arms.
Wang Qian was just Mu Qianqian's manager, but Mu Qianqian was Mu Xue'Er's biological mother!
Mu Xue'Er was more affectionate towards Wang Qian than Mu Qianqian, even Officer Ma, hidden in the crowd, furrowed his brow slightly.
Watching the serious expression on Zhang Feng's face, Officer Ma mentally noted:
"Could there really be something off about this Mu Qianqian?!"
