“Big brother, be careful. If anything happens, use the code word, and don’t let anyone recognize you,” Little Xiao looked at Coco, who was dressed exactly like Ding Ding in a sharp designer suit, and earnestly cautioned.
Coco had one hand casually in his pocket, his designer suit was impeccably tailored, exuding a commanding presence. He looked dashing, stylish, and very handsome.
“Don’t worry, we’ve been practicing for half a day with Ding Ding. We won’t make a mistake,” Coco walked up to Ding Ding and patted his shoulder. “Brother, we share a telepathic connection. Don’t forget the secret code.”
Ding Ding scratched his head. “I won’t forget. But remember, from 7 to 9 in the evening, I have quality time with Mommy. You must switch with me.”
“Of course,” Coco held Little Xiao’s hand. “Then we’ll go in first.”
“Go ahead. I know my way around here. I’ll take a shortcut in. If anything comes up, we’ll stay in touch,” Ding Ding waved to Coco and Little Xiao.
Hand in hand, Coco and Little Xiao confidently walked inside.
“So beautiful and elegant,” Little Xiao commented as she admired the palace-like villa. She seemed a bit awestruck.
“Ahem, Little Xiao, maintain your composure. We shouldn’t let anyone think we lack worldly experience; that would be a giveaway. Remember when we used to visit the White House with Mommy in the United States? Don’t forget your mission,” Coco reminded Little Xiao as they walked. Their first priority was to find Mommy and ensure her safety.
Little Xiao nodded earnestly, putting away her admiring gaze.
Beneath a secluded large tree.
“Shen Ning, what are you doing here in such a disgraceful outfit?” Shen Deshun, with stern eyes, looked at Shen Ning in her maid’s uniform and scolded her. “Today is your sister’s birthday. What are you doing here? Are you still thinking about Li Zhenting? Do you want to remarry him?”
Shen Ning looked at her father, who she hadn’t seen in years, with a deep sense of sadness.
“Dad, in your eyes, am I only fit for these lowly tasks? We’re both your daughters, but it seems like you only have room in your heart for Shen Mei. Have you ever considered what might have happened to me? If you want to know, why don’t you ask your precious daughter and that vile homewrecker?” “You ungrateful daughter!” Shen Deshun’s anger flared upon hearing Shen Ning’s disrespectful remarks about Lan Feiyun. He hissed, “Your Aunt Feiyun was just thinking of you a few days ago. She wanted to bring you back home and even moved out of the Shuiyun Residence voluntarily. You really don’t know how to appreciate her.”
Moved out voluntarily?
Shen Ning was on the verge of tears but couldn’t help laughing. She had to admit that Lan Feiyun was exceptionally skilled in manipulating situations. However, she had no intention of explaining anything to this man in front of her. Men all over the world shared a common trait: they were powerless against manipulation. They believed whatever women like Lan Feiyun told them.
“Dad, I just want to ask you one thing. Were you present at the scene when my mom jumped off the building?” Shen Ning, her eyes red, asked.
Shen Deshun’s face turned dark. “You’re truly malicious. Today is your sister’s birthday and the day Li Mei and Zhenting announce their marriage. Yet, you bring up your mother’s death here. Is that auspicious?”
“What about my mom? Was her death justified? Do you feel no guilt about how she died? Shen Corporation was founded with my mom’s help. But once the company started making money, you abandoned her. These years, don’t you have any conscience left?” Shen Ning’s emotions were running high as she poured out her grievances, her voice choked with tears.
“You heartless beast!” Shen Deshun, overcome with anger and humiliation, raised his hand to strike Shen Ning.
Somewhere along the way, he had developed an intense aversion to this daughter of his. In fact, he had reached a point where he didn’t want to see her at all, almost as if she had become his mental burden.
“No hitting!” Just then, a child’s innocent voice rang out loudly.
Shen Deshun was taken aback, looking up to see Ding Ding, dressed in a little suit, striding confidently towards them. Several bodyguards followed him, their faces displaying an intimidating demeanor as they glared at Shen Deshun..
