"Haha." The old man chuckled and said, "Your old man has been through so much for so many years, do you think he's easy to fool? Your statement is too ridiculous. The Su family of Yancheng is a well-known family, but everyone knows that the couple has no children and lives alone. Where did a daughter come from?"
Mu Nanxun frowned slightly and said in a deep voice,
“You’ve been away for too long, so there are some things you might not know. The Su family does have a daughter, but they are low-key people and only want their daughter to live a simple and peaceful life. So, from the moment Yi Yi was born, the Su family sent her to the countryside and rarely contacted her. Yi Yi grew up in the countryside and has always lived a peaceful life. Even she herself doesn’t know her true identity, let alone the outside world.”
"..." The old man remained silent for a while, not saying anything, just staring at Mu Nanxun.
Mu Nanxun's deep eyes flickered, and he pursed his lips, worried that the old man wouldn't believe him, and continued...
"If you don't believe me, you can look up the news that shocked Philadelphia a while ago. The Su family personally traveled from Yancheng to Philadelphia to prove to the media that Yi Yi is their biological daughter. Of course, if you don't even believe the media reports, you can ask the Su family yourself."
The old man nodded silently, raised his hand and looked it over from left to right, then said seemingly casually,
"I know about that sensational news story you mentioned in Philadelphia. At first, all the media were questioning whether the Yi you mentioned was a monster, and even wanted to capture her for research. This matter not only caused a stir in Philadelphia, but also throughout the country. If it weren't for the Su family holding that press conference to clarify things, it wouldn't have calmed down so quickly."
"It's good that you know."
"But I have another question, can you answer it for me?"
The old man sat calmly on the sofa, leaning back against the backrest and crossing his legs.
It must be said that although the old man is not young, he still has a commanding presence. Judging from Mu Nanxun's usual powerful aura, it's not hard to imagine that the old man is also extraordinary and not someone who can be easily fooled.
Mu Nanxun rubbed his temples wearily and said helplessly, "Go ahead."
“You said that little girl grew up in the countryside and didn’t even know her true identity. After this happened, she certainly couldn’t contact her biological parents herself. I know the Su family in Yancheng. The couple has always been indifferent to worldly affairs and so low-key that they don’t even watch the news. But after this happened, they rushed from Yancheng to Philadelphia immediately. How do you think they knew that their daughter was being treated like a monster by the media and the public?”
Upon hearing this, Mu Nanxun paused, he really hadn't expected the old man to seize on this loophole.
He slowly raised his wrist to check the time; it was already one o'clock in the morning.
At this time, almost everyone in the villa was asleep, and the surroundings were so quiet that you could almost hear your own heartbeat. This was also the time of day when Mu Nanxun's mental defenses were at their weakest.
The old man deliberately chose this time, hoping to get something out of him. Don't be fooled by his usual jovial and foul-mouthed demeanor these past few years, which makes him seem like he knows nothing and cares about nothing. In reality, he's as clear-headed as a mirror and understands everything perfectly well.
If it were anything else, Mu Nanxun would have been honest. But this concerned Yi Yi's safety, so naturally, the fewer people who knew her true identity, the better. Even the old man couldn't be told.
