"Dad, I feel like I've really let Auntie down..."

Su Manqing dialed her father's number, her voice low.

"What's wrong?"

Su's father's tone remained calm.

"You weren't spying on us?"

Su Manqing asked curiously.

"Ahem... Manqing, you're already an adult, why would I send someone to monitor you?"

Mr. Su coughed awkwardly, then added in his mind,

It doesn't count if you take that kid to a hotel.

That's a property owned by the Su family, so it's normal for someone to notify me.

Su Manqing said with some doubt:

"Alright then, I'll tell you..."

Su Manqing briefly recounted what had just happened, but her father's face turned ashen.

What does it mean that Lu Ming has a girlfriend?

You have a girlfriend, yet you still dare to sleep with my daughter!

Even if my daughter dragged you into the room while she was drunk, that doesn't change the fact that you bought her emergency contraception the next day!

"Manqing, don't worry, I will definitely get justice for you!"

The veins on Su's father's hand, gripping the phone, bulged as he thought of a hundred ways to dismember Lu Ming.

"Dad, I made a mistake. Please don't mess things up."

Su Manqing was completely confused and pouted in grievance.

I should have told my mom.

No, Mom will definitely coax her, and Ye Yiyi will too.

"I understand. You misunderstood Aunt Ye, and I mistakenly thought you had been wronged..."

"Well then, school starts next month and you'll be going to work. Your mom is worried that you won't be used to living alone in Hangzhou, so she'll fly over to see you in a couple of days."

"Then you and your daughter can invite Aunt Ye out for a chat and have a good talk."

Having been in the business world for many years, Su's father naturally dismissed his previous remarks with ease.

He wouldn't have said that if his daughter hadn't told him that Lu Ming had a girlfriend.

"Oh, is Mom coming to Hangzhou too?"

Su Manqing felt a surge of panic. What if her mother forced her to go on blind dates or insisted that she find a boyfriend? That would be troublesome...

"Is there a problem?"

Su's father frowned.

No, no.

Su Manqing said dejectedly:

"Alright then, let's wait until Mom gets to Hangzhou. I'll go check the time with her."

Mr. Su nodded and hung up the phone.

There was one more thing he didn't say.

Su's father had never seriously investigated Lu Ming, only knowing that the boy's grades were originally terrible, but he made great progress in high school and was admitted to Hangzhou University.

Su's father naturally assumed that it was because the boy was naughty and only became more sensible in high school.

He had also heard that Lu Ming had studied diligently throughout his three years of high school and had never been romantically involved with any girls at school.

Su's father was very satisfied with this at the time.

Hearing his daughter's words, he became suspicious again and was determined to conduct a thorough investigation into Lu Ming.

We need to dig up every secret about this kid!

Thinking of this, Su's father immediately thought of his longtime friend, Shen Yishi.

Shen Yishi's life experience is quite legendary.

After graduating from university, he abandoned the prestigious reputation of being a student from a top university and became a private investigator like a madman, which angered his parents to the point that they almost severed ties with Shen Yishi.

But this guy had a unique mind, and managed to make the detective agency thrive in the 1990s.

Then, taking advantage of the golden window of economic boom following the reform and opening up, he keenly seized the opportunities of the times and devoted his main energy to business investigation, which increased his net worth several hundred times.

Sensing that Lu Ming was suspicious, Su's father naturally thought of this old friend.

"Brother Yishi, how have you been?"

Mr. Su chuckled and dialed Shen Yishi's number.

"Brother Su, you never visit unless you need something, but your business empire is thriving, so there shouldn't be anything where you need my help."

Shen Yishi chuckled, his tone revealing the shrewdness unique to detectives.

They even tried to trick Su's father into revealing information.

"It's not work, it's a personal matter."

Su's father said simply.

Shen Yishi then nodded:

"That's it. It must be your precious daughter, right?"

"Should we investigate her romantic interests, or her blind date?"

Su's father understood Shen Yishi's abilities very well and replied frankly:

"Hangzhou, Lu Ming."

Shen Yishi pushed up his glasses, quite readily agreeing:

"Two million for basic information. If there are more complex backgrounds or situations, we'll add more money then."

Su's father readily agreed:

"make a deal!"

Even though he was worth hundreds of millions, it would still cost two million to investigate a freshman, which made Su's father feel a little distressed.

He started from scratch, so he naturally knows that money is hard to earn.

Although it hurts to spend the money, compared to my daughter's happiness for the rest of her life, it's worth it!

"Brother Su is so generous! It will be a pleasure to cooperate with you then."

Shen Yishi said casually.

Although he has shifted his focus to business investigations, he finds these mundane, everyday cases even more exciting.

Especially since the Su family only has one precious daughter, she has long been the target of countless people.

Shen Yishi never expected that his own daughter was also standing next to this college student named Lu Ming, watching Mu Wanqiu hiding on Lu Ming's other side.

……

"Sister Wanqiu, I think Lu Ming seems to want to talk to you alone about something."

"Should I... leave?"

Shen Qianxue blinked her bright eyes, playing hard to get.

A mischievous smile played on her lips as she waited for Lu Ming's rebuttal, eager to hear what little secret he had up his sleeve.

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Lu Mingcai wasn't going to tolerate her and waved her away.

Anyway, Miss Shen is perfectly safe with Uncle Gong protecting her.

Shen Qianxue stomped her foot in anger, her lips pouting to the sky:

"Sister Wanqiu, look at Lu Ming, he's just waiting to get rid of me!"

As she spoke, her eyes immediately welled up with tears, becoming watery and filled with a deep sense of grievance.

Mu Wanqiu lowered her eyes, not looking at the two of them.

She kept her head down, her gaze wandering.

Lu Ming was wearing a pair of white sneakers today, cheap and durable, which was his standard attire.

Shen Qianxue didn't wear the white dress from yesterday today either; instead, she wore a refreshing T-shirt and short skirt.

On her feet, she was also wearing a pair of white sneakers.

The two shoes matched perfectly.

Mu Wanqiu "casually" glanced at her own feet.

Black canvas shoes.

I won't wear it next time, and I kind of dislike Shen Qianxue.

"Since your sister Wanqiu didn't say anything, it means she tacitly agreed."

"Let's go back early, or it would be nice to stroll around Hangzhou's night markets."

Lu Ming urged Shen Qianxue again.

Shen Qianxue pursed her lips, interlaced her fingers, and twisted them into a pretzel shape.

Her usual tactic of acting cute and charming never worked, but it ran into the aloof Mu Wanqiu, who was completely unmoved by it, and the clueless and shameless Lu Ming!

Shen Qianxue inherited her father's keen intuition; don't think Miss Shen is unaware of this:

Last time she was picking vegetables in the kitchen, that scoundrel Lu Ming kept stealing glances at her bear, looking at it again and again!

Just as Shen Qianxue was about to self-destruct and take Lu Ming away with her claws, a figure in the distance locked onto Lu Ming.

"Okay, I'll be going now. See you next time!"

Shen Qianxue instantly switched to her innocent and sweet mode, smiled sweetly, and waved goodbye.

Sensing the overwhelming killing intent, Shen Qianxue secretly thought that even if Uncle Gong came, it would be in vain.

Of course, Miss Shen believes that those who know when to yield are the wise ones!

Lu Ming's pupils shrank to pinpoints. Faced with the choice between following his mother and debuting in Chengdu, he abruptly switched sides and grabbed Shen Qianxue's wrist.

"Susu, I've already told my mom, there's no use hiding now!"
