Lin Zimo said this.

Luo Fei also nodded.

"Alright. However, Miss Lin, this might require you to make some sacrifices. Are you willing?"

But upon hearing Luo Fei ask like this,

Lin Zimo couldn't help but frown.

"Mr. Luo, what do you mean? Do you think I'm just a little girl, afraid of dying, and can't endure hardships?"

"I've already guessed that Jin Hongwen and I are blood-related. If there's a chance to uncover the truth, of course, I'm willing. No matter how hard it is, I'm willing to try."

Seeing that Lin Zimo was a bit doubtful,

but still rather determined.

Luo Fei smiled and waved his hand.

"No, Miss Lin, you've got it wrong. I didn't mean that at all."

"I just wanted to ask if you've ever taken your boyfriend to meet your parents."

Lin Zimo still didn't understand what Luo Fei meant,

but had to answer truthfully.

"Mr. Luo, honestly, I haven't yet. Because the person I've hired might only be able to come in a few days."

"He's currently filming in another place."

After hearing Lin Zimo's analysis,

and understanding the current situation,

Luo Fei nodded again.

"I understand."

"Since that's the case, Miss Lin, why don't we go with the plans as they are? Let Su Jianfan pretend to be your boyfriend."

Upon hearing the analysis,

Lin Zimo almost immediately exploded.

"Mr. Luo, what did you say? Let Su Jianfan pretend to be my boyfriend? Is that even possible?"

At that moment, Lin Zimo's beautiful eyes widened,

her face filled with disbelief.

Luo Fei seriously said,

"Why not?"

"Su Jianfan has been under pressure to marry recently. If you two try dating, and it turns out your temperaments match, you could be together. Wouldn't that be a perfect match?"

Listening to Luo Fei's analysis,

Lin Zimo thought she had misheard.

"Mr. Luo, are you joking?"

"How could I possibly...with Su Jianfan, that older guy..."

Lin Zimo's pretty face flushed red.

Actually, she liked Luo Fei but wouldn't admit it.

But as she hesitated, unsure of what to do,

a voice from behind her spoke softly.

"Don't worry, Miss Lin. Even if you don't like me, it's not certain I'd fancy you either."

Hearing this voice, with a hint of teasing,

Luo Fei and Li Yu both fell silent.

As they saw Su Jianfan coming down the stairs,

looking at them a bit puzzled,

Lin Zimo suddenly lost her composure.

"Officer Su, I was just speaking recklessly out of excitement. Plus, there's a considerable age difference between us. I'm just stating a fact, I hope you don't mind."

But Lin Zimo stammered,

unable to speak smoothly.

Su Jianfan, however, didn't dwell on it,

and seriously said,

"Mr. Luo, I agree to your request. I'm willing to try acting with Lin Zimo."

Upon hearing Su Jianfan agree,

Lin Zimo nearly froze.

"Mr. Su, are you sure you're willing to play my partner? Wouldn't that be troublesome for you?"

Seeing Lin Zimo's hesitation,

she stopped herself short.

Su Jianfan asked back,

"Miss Lin, don't you want to know the truth?"

"Or are you scared?"

"I'm not doing this out of affection for you, nor am I secretly in love with you, the capricious young lady. I'm just eager to solve the case."

Su Jianfan spoke directly,

not hiding his disdain for Lin Zimo.

This made Lin Zimo blush and speechless, looking down.

After a while, she mumbled softly,

"Fine, as long as we can uncover the truth, I'll do it!"

Seeing she agreed, Su Jianfan suggested,

"Since Miss Lin isn't afraid and doesn't mind, why don't we prepare to meet my mother in a while."

Originally, Lin Zimo wanted to seek help from Luo Fei,

to see if he would refuse such a sudden request from Su Jianfan.

But in the next second,

Luo Fei readily agreed.

"That would be good, after all, if Aunt Song sees that Su Jianfan already has someone, she will stop nagging, and that weight in her heart can finally be lifted."

Luo Fei actually agreed,

leaving Lin Zimo almost instantly dumbfounded.

Although she was somewhat unwilling,

But she could only blush slightly and take the initiative to apologize.

"Since Mr. Luo has said this, then I'll follow your lead."

"Alright, let's set off in a while."

A while later.

As the three arrived at the restaurant.

Song Yulan had been waiting in the private room early.

Just when she saw Luo Fei unexpectedly bringing Su Jianfan and a stranger girl along.

Song Yulan was truly caught off guard.

"Mr. Luo, I thought you were coming alone to the meeting."

She said with a hint of resentment, glancing at Su Jianfan beside him.

It was apparent that she was hesitating to speak.

Obviously bothered by her previous behavior.

Luo Fei just smiled.

"Sister Song, actually I originally planned to come alone. But in the afternoon, Su Jianfan told me he actually has someone he likes. He just hasn't announced it publicly."

"So I thought, since he has such intentions, why not fulfill his wish."

Seeing Luo Fei agree.

Song Yulan nodded repeatedly.

"Mr. Luo, that really troubles you. I'm truly sorry."

"It's okay. But since Su Jianfan already found a partner, why don't you all as a family have a good chat. I, as an outsider, won't participate."

But seeing Luo Fei speaking and turning to leave.

Song Yulan called out to him.

"Mr. Luo, please wait a moment."

Upon hearing Song Yulan call him.

Luo Fei felt slightly surprised.

"Sister Song, is there something else?"

Seeing Luo Fei somewhat puzzled.

Seemingly not understanding what was going on.

She quickly explained.

"Mr. Luo, don't get me wrong. I don't mean anything else."

"Just since you're here, why don't you join us for dinner? That way, I can also chat with you about Su Jianfan's recent situation."

When Song Yulan asked this.

Her gaze shifted to Lin Zimo.

Also noticing her hesitating to speak.

Obviously hoping for more communication with her.

Luo Fei nodded.

"Then I won't be polite."

As he spoke.

Luo Fei had already sat down.

Looking at him, his expression was calm and composed. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Song Yulan first called the waiter to serve the dishes.

Only then did she start to chat with Luo Fei and the others while eating.

And as everyone ate for a while.

Song Yulan then spoke in a deep voice.

"Mr. Luo, actually I've been curious about when Su Jianfan met this girlfriend?"

"Are they really dating, or pretending to date just to appease me?"

Seeing Song Yulan with some suspicion.

Her face full of vigilance.

Su Jianfan's head began to sweat.

"Mom, why would you think that? How could I simply lie to you?"

Seeing Su Jianfan somewhat incredulous.

Song Yulan kept a straight face and said.

"Su Jianfan, it's not that I don't want to believe you, but you seemed to like doing such things in the past."

"So I had to repeatedly confirm."

Song Yulan said this, unable to help it.

After all, you should know.

Su Jianfan did similar things before.

But such information.

Also made Luo Fei a bit surprised.

"Is that so, Su Jianfan? I didn't know about these things."

Seeing Luo Fei a bit surprised.

Apparently not expecting himself to do such things.

Su Jianfan could only helplessly say.

"Mr. Luo, I used to just mess around, only to upset my family leader because he didn't allow me to date those people he disapproved of. So I deliberately did that..."

"Oh, Su Jianfan, so you were intentionally deceiving me all along!"

Almost simultaneously.

Lin Zimo suddenly stood up, her beautiful eyes wide open.

Her face filled with incredulity.

Seeing Lin Zimo somewhat suspicious.

Her beautiful eyes full of confusion and doubt.

Su Jianfan panicked immediately.

He thought.

Lin Zimo was angry.

So she was planning to expose his lies.
