"Oh … I remember …" When the hotpot chicken was served, Miao Ying suddenly remembered something. She pointed to Ding Lan and said, "When we were kids, we played together at our house!"
"Yes!" Ding Lan nodded. "I remember that too!"
Miao Ying then said, "I remember that we didn't like dolls, but toy guns and toy cars. At that time, we fought over a toy gun!"
"Really?" Ding Lan shook her head. "I was too young back then and can't remember! Who won in the end? "
"Um …" Miao Ying thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I can't remember either!"
"Ha ha ha … To be honest …" Zhao Yu swallowed a mouthful of wine and said, "When I first met Ding Lan, I thought she was my father-in-law's illegitimate daughter! The two of you look too alike … "
"You're being naughty again!" Miao Kun frowned. "As I said, Ding Lan is my colleague's child. Although she's my godfather, she's not even an adoptive father. She's more like an adoptive father or a master!
"God …" Seeing Miao Ying's confused look, he quickly clarified, "I don't even have time to raise my own daughter. How could I have time to raise an illegitimate daughter?"
"That's true …" Zhao Yu realized that he had been too rash, so he quickly changed the subject. "Fortunately, my mother-in-law didn't come today! Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to explain yourself! "
"By the way, didn't we have a family dinner together? Where is my mother-in-law? "
"Mm …" Zhao Yu's question caused the atmosphere to become awkward again.
"Well, since she's not an outsider …" Miao Kun looked at his two daughters, then whispered to Zhao Yu, "Your mother-in-law has already gotten off work!"
"What the …" Zhao Yu was surprised. "You're an old couple. Why did you divorce her? Oh … No wonder … You were having so much fun in Kosovo! It turns out … "
Miao Kun jumped up and covered Zhao Yu's mouth. He then said fiercely, "When I said she's gotten off work, I didn't mean divorce. She's really gotten off work!"
"Since I'm off work, doesn't that mean I have more time?" Zhao Yu blinked innocently.
"That's enough." Miao Ying saw that Zhao Yu was in a daze. She put a hand on Zhao Yu's shoulder and said, "The mother-in-law you know was sent by the Secret Service to cooperate with my father. She's just his colleague!"
"…" Zhao Yu's face was scorched black, as if he was on fire.
"My mother is also an influential figure. She's usually busy with missions, so it's not convenient for her to show her face!" "So, in order to cover it up, the Secret Service found me a fake mother!"
Oh …
Today, Zhao Yu finally found an answer.
He recalled that when he first met Miao Ying, he had eavesdropped on her conversation with her mother.
On the phone, Mother Miao's words were sharp and her tone was arrogant. At first glance, it was obvious that she was a tough person.
However, later, in the Miao family's mansion, Zhao Yu saw that Mother Miao was gentle and virtuous. She spoke softly and elegantly, which was somewhat different from Zhao Yu's impression.
Now, he finally understood that the mother-in-law he had seen with his own eyes turned out to be a fake. No wonder he had always felt that this mother-in-law's behavior was a bit rigid!
So that's how it is … This is really …
"Dad, what did Zhao Yu mean by Kosovia?" Miao Ying asked. "What do you mean by having fun?"
"What are you talking about?" Miao Kun's face turned red. "Don't listen to Zhao Yu's nonsense! I was doing it for official business! I think the opposite should be said. You should ask Zhao Yu if he had fun or not. "
"Pfft …" Zhao Yu had just taken a sip of wine and spat it all out.
"Hahaha …" Ding Lan convulsed with laughter.
"Oh? Really? "Miao Ying crossed her arms and turned to Zhao Yu.
"Father-in-law, you're not a good brother," Zhao Yu threatened. "What's in it for us to kill each other? Do you really want to force me to tell you about the French Senior Sister? "
"Pfft …" Miao Kun spat out the wine, and his face turned the color of an eggplant.
Ding Lan laughed so hard that she almost choked.
"Okay! I don't care … "Miao Ying opened a bottle of beer and took a few sips. She then said to Miao Kun," Dad, in order to keep an eye on you two, I must apply to join the Secret Service!
If you don't approve, I'll call my mom! "
"You little girl, how can you take advantage of me?" Miao Kun put away his awkward expression and said seriously, "I think, in fact, you are quite suitable in all aspects. The Secret Service needs excellent talents like my daughter. Don't worry, I can recommend you later!"
"Hmph, that's more like it!" Miao Ying was satisfied and immediately put down the glass.
Hmm …
The next second, the room suddenly fell silent, and no one made a sound.
"Hmm … Goddaughter …" Miao Kun suddenly winked at Ding Lan and said, "Don't you want to go to the bathroom? Hurry up, take your sister with you! "
"Me? The dishes just came … "Ding Lan was stunned at first, but then she suddenly understood. She immediately pulled Miao Ying and said," Let's go, sister! Come with me to the bathroom! "
"But … I'm too full! I haven't even eaten a piece of meat yet! Hmm … "Miao Ying looked at Miao Kun and Zhao Yu, who were both angry, and understood something. She stood up and followed Ding Lan.
It wasn't until the two of them were out of the private room that Miao Kun put away his anger and let out a long sigh.
"Alas! This is fate! " He took out a cigar, lit it, and said to Zhao Yu, "Do you think I didn't know? You deliberately sold me out so that I would agree to let Miao Miao join the Secret Service, right? "
"I didn't expect you to be so straightforward," Zhao Yu said. "So, you've finally figured it out?"
"Yes, I couldn't stop her!" Miao Kun said. "Her mother and I have been trying to stop her because we know it's too dangerous! We only have one daughter … Alas! "
"Don't worry, just let her be my assistant. I'll protect her!" Zhao Yu said. "You know what? Every time I come back from a mission, I see Miao Miao's eyes full of anticipation and eagerness, and I feel very bad.
I promised her that I would help her join the Secret Service! "
"Besides, I know Miao Miao's ability. She is fully capable of some basic tasks. Father-in-law, since she is so ambitious, let her try! "
"Well … You're right." Miao Kun took a few more puffs of his cigarette and said, "At least now I know that you have the ability. And, with Miao Miao following you, I can rest assured! "
"Alas, no matter what you say, you still don't trust me! Old Jiang! "Zhao Yu glared at Miao Kun, then raised his glass and drank with him.
"Here …" Miao Kun flicked the ash off his cigarette, then took out a black card from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Yu. "This is for you. Do you recognize it?"
Zhao Yu looked at it and found that it was a black bank card with a picture of an ancient Roman soldier printed on it. There were no Chinese characters on it, only English letters and numbers.
"This is an American Express black card, the legendary Centurion," Miao Kun said. "It's the king of all credit cards. It can be overdrawn indefinitely. Mr. Long Di asked me to give it to you!"
"Pfft …" Zhao Yu threw the card back. "Are you kidding me? Why would you give me a broken credit card? What's the point of having an unlimited overdraft? Don't I still have to pay it back myself? "
"Oh … Okay then …" Miao Kun put away the card and explained, "Here's the thing. We've basically solved Long Di's problem!
Mr. Long Di and his family are very grateful for our help, and they happily paid the one billion yuan! Then, he entrusted me with full authority to distribute the money to everyone according to their contributions! "
"Because of the huge amount involved, ordinary bank cards can't transfer the money, so we used the American Express black card to distribute the money to everyone. Your share is worth 150 million US dollars, and it's all on this card. If you're not interested, then forget it …"
"What the …" Hearing this, Zhao Yu plunged into Miao Kun's arms and frantically reached for the card.
