Super God: My sister-in-law discovered me secretly drawing Kaisa's feet.

Su Mobai paused for a moment, then didn't reply immediately.

He glanced at Liang Bing, and began to ponder what she really wanted.

Because eight out of ten sentences Liang Bing speaks are hooks, and the remaining two are bait on those hooks.

It's even less likely that he would be so narcissistic as to think that Liang Bing has already fallen in love with him so easily.

This little devil just loves watching his reactions, loves seeing him struggle to process what he's going on.

If he really gets carried away, then he's just being stupid.

Su Mobai pretended to think seriously and asked her, "You tell me first, how do you want me to behave?"

Liang Bing rested her chin on her hand, deliberately drawing out her voice, "Guess."

Su Mobai's lips twitched; he was certain this was a trap. He simply shrugged, "Then I won't guess."

"Sister Liangbing, this person is very upright. He doesn't do anything illegal or immoral, he doesn't sign indenture contracts, and he doesn't call anyone 'master.' You can discuss the rest."

"Let's make this clear first: I'll sell my art, not my body; I'll sell my paintings, not my life; and I'll only sell my smiles depending on my mood."

After hearing this, Liang Bing paused for a moment, even resting her chin on her hand.

She originally wanted to see Su Mobai panic, preferably with his eyes darting around while he pretended to be serious, and then be gradually cornered by her.

But this guy had a completely comprehensive defense.

It must be from the fortress.

"Does selling smiles depend on your mood?"

Liang Bing looked up at him, the corners of her mouth gradually curving upwards. "Su Mobai, you're quite good at raising your own price now."

"There's no other way." Su Mobai sat up straight, his tone as serious as if he were discussing business. "When you're out there, your worth is determined by yourself. If you don't raise it a bit, you'll sell it off sooner or later."

Liang Bing burst out laughing.

"You really think I need anything from you?"

"That's hard to say."

Su Mobai glanced at her, "I haven't built up enough credibility with Sister Liangbing yet."

"You're making it sound like I've ever cheated you."

Su Mobai's eyes twitched and he remained silent for a moment.

Liang Bing also fell silent for a moment.

The two stared at each other for a moment, and Liang Bing couldn't hold back and turned her face to smile.

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore."

"I just went to see my sister."

"I know."

"My sister asked me to tell you that Father will be back tomorrow."

Liang Bing looked at him. "What I mean is, you should meet him tomorrow. Aren't you supposed to paint Father's portrait in front of those high-ranking angels and nobles at his birthday banquet a month from now?"

"Your father met with you first, so the subsequent arrangements will go more smoothly."

Su Mobai hummed in agreement.

The true lord of Mero.

Keisha and Liang Bing's father.

Those who can maintain a foothold in this era are not easily fooled. Keisha is already difficult enough to deal with, but her father will only be more so. Moreover, his identity as a "traveler from across the stars" might work for a while, but if he were to actually confront the lord, who knows what flaws might be revealed?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Liang Bing thought he had finally realized he was nervous, and her mood improved a bit.

"What, scared?"

Su Mobai looked up at her.

He has nothing to be afraid of.

But then he saw Liang Bing's expression, as if she was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

No.

We can't let her take advantage of us all the time.

He wants to turn the tide.

After a moment of silence, Su Mobai suddenly nodded very seriously.

"I am a little scared."

Liang Bing raised an eyebrow. "What are you afraid of?"

Su Mobai looked at her, his tone as serious as could be, "We've only known each other for a few days, and you're already meeting your future father-in-law?"

The room fell silent for a moment.

The smile on Liang Bing's face froze.

She seemed not to have heard clearly, or perhaps she had heard clearly but her mind hadn't quite registered it; her eyes widened little by little.

Seeing her reaction, Su Mobai felt immediately relieved.

I told you to go fishing.

You're just teasing me.

Now you know what a counter-kill looks like, right?

Two breaths later, Liang Bing finally reacted. Her ears first warmed up a little, and then her whole face looked like she had been choked by those words.

"Su, Mo, Bai".

She pronounced his name word by word, enunciating each syllable clearly.

Su Mobai immediately leaned back in his chair and raised his hand to protect himself. "Don't hit me. I'm just being reasonable."

"Reasonable my foot!"

Liang Bing raised her hand to hit him, but Su Mobai turned his head to dodge. Her knuckles grazed his forehead, missing him.

She was truly impressed; she wouldn't have left if she wasn't afraid of smashing his forehead.

And this guy just now acted like he was being hooked by her, but then he turned around and dared to throw the words "father-in-law" in her face.

But after he finished speaking, he pretended to be very serious, as if he really thought there was nothing wrong with what he said.

Liang Bing took half a step closer to him, "You're getting bolder and bolder."

Su Mobai nodded seriously, "It's mainly because Sister Liang Bing taught me well."

"What did I teach you?"

"Stubborn, baiting, blaming others, and unreasonable."

Liang Bing was so angry she laughed. She reached out and grabbed his collar, pulling him forward a little.

"Now, let me teach you something else."

Su Mobai's Adam's apple bobbed. "What?"

Liang Bing looked down at him, unable to suppress the smile in her eyes, but deliberately lowered her voice.

"When you're not strong enough, you'll get beaten up."

Su Mobai immediately raised his hand to protect his head, quickly admitting his mistake, "Sister Liangbing, I was wrong."

Liang Bing squinted. "What did I do wrong?"

"The mistake was talking back to my sister."

"Anything else?"

"This should not be interpreted reasonably."

Liang Bing almost lost her composure, tightening her grip even more. "You still dare to say that?"

Su Mobai covered his head even more tightly, "I won't dare to, I won't dare to."

Liang Bing stared at him for a couple of breaths, but in the end she didn't really hit him hard; she just flicked his forehead with her finger.

Snapped.

The sound wasn't loud, and of course, it didn't hurt.

But Su Mobai instinctively shrank back, covered his forehead, and looked aggrieved. "Domestic violence!"

Liang Bing was amused and annoyed. "Who said we're family?" she snapped. "Say that again!"

"I said Sister Liang Bing is gentle and virtuous, please go easy on her."

"You're smart to know what's good for you."

Liang Bing figured it out: the closer you get to Su Mobai, the more mischievous he becomes; in short, he needs to be taught a lesson.

She loosened his collar. "You'd better keep your mouth shut when you see my father tomorrow."

Su Mobai rubbed his forehead and looked up at her.

He originally thought she would follow up with the "father-in-law" remark and curse back, but to his surprise, she only said this one sentence.

No rebuttal.

He had a fleeting thought, but quickly suppressed it.

You're overthinking it; who knows how long you've already held a grudge in your mind.

Su Mobai coughed lightly, "Don't worry, I'm very good at judging the occasion."

Liang Bing looked at him, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Su Mobai shrugged. "Really."

"You'd better be telling the truth."

She crossed her arms and said in a fierce tone, "My father isn't like my sister. If he senses something's wrong with you, he won't beat around the bush with you."

Su Mobai nodded.

As night fell, the atmosphere in the lord's manor changed first.

One by one, the torches under the corridor lit up, their dark golden light spreading along the long corridor and illuminating the patterns on the stone pillars.

Su Mobai stood by the window of the guest room, looking into the distance.

The armored guards changed shifts, and the sound of their boots treading on the stone surface was even more synchronized than during the day.

The angels bustled about, passing through the various corridors.

That's when I realized more clearly that the person I was going to meet tomorrow was not an ordinary father.

He wasn't the kind of elder he could jokingly call "father-in-law."

That is the true lord of Mero Star.

Su Mobai looked at it for a while, then raised his hand to close the window.

"Let it be."
