Ye Wanwan had just said “dad” when she heard “doot doot doot”. The sound of the call ending came from the other end.
She glanced at her phone in confusion.
What’s going on?
Within three seconds, her phone started ringing. It was a call from Senior Sister.
Ye Wanwan answered the call, bewildered. “Hello, Senior Sister?”
Medusa anxiously asked, “Little Junior Sister, what did you say to Master when you called him just now?”
“Nothing much. What happened to him?” Ye Wanwan was confused.
Medusa replied, “Master was talking to me on the second-floor balcony. When he answered your call, he suddenly dropped the phone off the balcony accidentally, has been frozen in his spot since and won’t answer me no matter what…”
Ye Wanwan: “…”
Eh, is that necessary?
Medusa asked, “Just what in the world did you say, Little Junior Sister?”
“I just said one word.”
“One word? That’s impossible! Why would Master be so emotional?”
“One word: Dad.”
Medusa: “…”
After a few seconds of silence, rustling was heard from the other end, as if Senior Sister’s phone was snatched away.
Quickly after, He Lianjue’s voice, which sounded so excited like he was about to cry, was heard. “Little Worriless! W-wh-what did you call me just now?! You called me Dad? Sasa! Sasa! Did you hear it? My daughter called me Dad!”
Medusa cleared her throat and promptly followed along and pacified him. “Yes, Master, I heard it. I did say that Worriless still respected and admired you greatly, so why would she reject your kind notion?”
He Lianjue shouted, “Ah, Little Worriless! Quick! Quickly call me ‘Daddy’ again!”
Ye Wanwan exasperatedly sighed. “Alright, alright, Dad. Stop yowling, Dad, I have some proper business to discuss with you.”
Upon hearing her call him “Dad” twice, He Lianjue was simply satisfied and quickly assumed his role. “Good daughter, tell me!”
Ye Wanwan coughed lightly. “Although I don’t mind donning another disguise… are you sure someone would believe this kind of bullsh*t? Although nearly no one in Tianshui City knows me, Yin Yuerong at least knows how I look, right? She’s met me before.”
“Also, Qin Xiyuan probably investigated me and knows how I look! Yet, I became your daughter out of nowhere! That doesn’t make sense no matter how you look at it!” she added.
He Lianjue replied with excessive confidence, “So what if they’ve seen your face? There are so many people who look similar in this world, so what’s there to be shocked about?!
“Anyway, good daughter, you still don’t seem to fully understand your daddy’s prestige in the Twelve Independent States. Father told you before that no one would doubt anything I say!”
When Ye Wanwan heard this, the idiom “calling white black” involuntarily popped up in her mind.
This idiom wasn’t blindly crafted; it was a true story in history.
For someone in a superior position, the words you said were the truth no matter how BS they were.
Especially for someone with Yi Lingjun’s reputation. No one would believe Yi Lingjun would vehemently abduct a daughter to satisfy his desire simply because he didn’t have a daughter himself…
He Lianjue continued, “As for the other stuff, Father has naturally handled it already. Regardless of how they investigated you, there would only be one result. Father has a long lost daughter, and you’re Father’s daughter!”
“…” Ye Wanwan simply didn’t know what to say anymore.
Handled it already?
Could it be that this scheme had long been concocted?
