As she casually retorted, Mu Shanshan reverted to her usual cold detachment without a hint of embarrassment, pushing her bowl and chopsticks towards Lin Fei, “It’s too late, I still need to wash up and apply a face mask.

Besides, I don’t do dishes.

This is your trouble now.”

She probably realized her actions were a bit inappropriate.

As she got up, right before Lin Fei could lose his temper, Shanshan quickly sweetened the deal, “From now on, your monthly allowance will go back to five hundred.

Also, the dinner you made was quite delicious.

I’m very satisfied, thank you.”

After speaking, Shanshan hastened upstairs at nearly double her usual pace, taking advantage of the moment Lin Fei spoke in a cold voice.

…

Second-floor study.

Snap!

After turning on the light, Shanshan walked gracefully to the desk and picked up the photo of her deceased biological mother that had been there since the day she moved into the villa.

In the photo, her mother’s smiling face, slightly bulging and bearing a strong resemblance to Shanshan herself, was gentle and radiant, filled with maternal brilliance.

This was the only photo Shanshan had with her mother.

For many years, Shanshan had cherished it carefully, and whenever she had something on her mind, she would speak to the photo.

“Mom, he gave me a huge surprise today.

He actually found the kidnappers who abducted a guest from our hotel before the police did.

Not only that, but he subdued five kidnappers all by himself and saved the guest.

He might not be as incompetent as I thought before…”

The next morning, Lin Fei, who had planned to sleep in, was awoken by the sound of an engine roaring.

“Who the hell is disturbing my sleep so early in the morning!”

Annoyed, Lin Fei complained and was about to go back to sleep when he was woken again by the sound of knocking.

“Damn it, could it be that woman Mu Shanshan trying to mess with me?!”

Having been woken up twice, Lin Fei, who was completely sleepless, simply got up and walked to the door with a stern face, muttering as he opened it, “Mu Shanshan, you better have a good reason—Aunt Fang?

Why is it you?

I thought it was—what’s up so early?”

“I’m sorry for disturbing your sleep, sir.”

After apologizing, Aunt Fang quickly got to the point, “There’s a guest at home, he says he’s the brother of the young lady’s uncle.

The young lady went out for a run, and I thought since he’s relatives, it wouldn’t be nice to keep him waiting alone in the living room, so I came to find you.

If it’s convenient for you, could you go down and entertain him for a while?”

“The brother of the uncle?”

Muttering to himself, Lin Fei nodded to Aunt Fang, saying, “Okay, I got it, Aunt Fang.

Let him wait in the living room for a bit, I will just change my clothes and go down.”

Considering that it was Shanshan’s relative after all, Lin Fei did not allow him to wait for long.

After getting dressed, brushing his teeth, and washing his face, he went downstairs.

Upon reaching the living room, Lin Fei saw a young man, about twenty-five or twenty-six, dressed in a checkered shirt and white casual leather shoes.

He was sitting with one leg crossed over the other and his hands spread out at the sides of the sofa, his gaze occasionally sweeping over the villa’s luxurious furnishings without a hint of admiration or envy—rather, there was a hint of scorn.

“You must be the cheap brother-in-law that our old man found for me.”

After sizing up Lin Fei casually, Mu Shanshan’s younger brother said with a half-smile, “Before I came here, I made some inquiries about you; your name is Lin Fei, right?

Nice to meet you for the first time.

I’m Mu Shaopeng, Mu Shanshan’s younger brother.

You can call me Mu Shao, or Peng Shao.”

As Mu Shaopeng finished speaking, Mu Shanshan, who had been out for a morning run, just opened the door and entered the house.

“What are you doing here?”

Seeing Mu Shaopeng sitting on the sofa, Mu Shanshan immediately frowned.
