“Anyway, with my good daughter’s plastic-surgery-like acting skills, what’s there to be worried about? Father believes in you!” He Lianjue didn’t forget to praise his daughter.
Ye Wanwan’s lips turned up, and she returned the gesture. “No, how could I be acting? Dad, this isn’t acting, I’m revealing my true feelings! We shared a deep father and daughter bond to begin with!”
He Lianjue was moved to tears and looked incredibly touched. “That’s right, that’s right! My good daughter’s right! Good daughter, don’t worry—you can traipse across the Twelve Independent States however you want. Forget about stealing a man from someone; even if you want to start a harem, Father will satisfy you!”
“No need, Dad…” Ye Wanwan replied.
Ha ha… A harem… Do I want to die…?
Ye Wanwan made this phone call on the balcony, so Big Dipper, Fu Mingxi, First Elder, and Third Elder only heard Ye Wanwan call the other person “dad” and thought she was conversing with Patriarch Nie. None of them expected He Lianjue to be on the other end of the phone.
He Lianjue prattled on for eons and didn’t forget to remind her, “Oh right, you better not tell that Si guy. You should pretend to not know him. If we reveal any flaws, we won’t get our desired effect! This is very important!”
Ye Wanwan rubbed her chin, thinking: Of course I don’t want Ah-Jiu to find out I secretly came to Tianshui City.
Whether he would recognize her or not, she couldn’t guarantee it.
However, thinking back on it, when Si Yehan pretended to be a stranger as Lord Asura, wasn’t she nearly deceived?
When she faced Lord Asura back then, she was on the brink of questioning her life…
No matter what, her professional acting skills should be stronger than his, right? Moreover, she had the support of the old and cunning He Lianjue, so the level of her happily received new disguise wasn’t any inferior to He Lianjue’s gold-spun soft armor.
Hm, I suddenly feel excited…
If I hit on Si Yehan as a stranger and as the President’s daughter, how will he react?
…
At this time, in Si Yehan’s residence in Tianshui City:
Lin Que finally managed to dismiss the people from the Yin family and the three women they brought with them.
After taking care of business, Lin Que reported back to Si Yehan, both mentally and physically exhausted. “D*mn! I finally kicked them out! Isn’t Auntie Rong too ruthless?! Thank goodness the authority is far away and that girl won’t find out about this or else it’d be tragic!”
Si Yehan didn’t say anything, but it was very obvious he was also glad about that point.
When Lin Que saw Si Yehan with a rare troubled look on his face, Lin Que furtively asked, “Ninth Brother, during today’s visit, what was the President’s attitude?”
Si Yehan glanced at Lin Que silently. A moment later, he asked, “President Yi has a daughter?”
Lin Que didn’t understand the meaning behind Si Yehan’s question and reflexively shook his head. “He doesn’t, right? Isn’t President Yi unmarried?”
“That doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a daughter.”
Lin Que turned more dumbfounded. “Hm, you’re right, but why are you suddenly asking this, Ninth Brother…?”
Si Yehan didn’t intend to make Lin Que delve into Yi Lingjun’s private matters. After all, since Yi Lingjun said something like this, it absolutely couldn’t be nonsense. Si Yehan merely found it to be out of left field.
Thankfully, Yi Lingjun wasn’t Qin Zong. Even if he rejected Yi Lingjun today, the other man wouldn’t selfishly make things difficult for him with his big heart.
However, when Si Yehan recalled Yi Lingjun’s attitude after he rejected him, he suddenly felt uncertain…
Was he truly too preoccupied with his daughter’s future marriage or was he intentionally making things difficult for him?
