Masked W: I'm like peanuts or vegetables, and Saeko is outside the door.

Really?

Nanahara Miyabi wasn't stupid; she instantly understood her daughter's thoughts and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

Her gaze returned to the young man's face—his youthful and handsome appearance, his formidable strength… Thinking of these things, Nan Yuanya's face flushed slightly, but she sighed inwardly.

The daughter clearly already knew the truth that her father was no longer alive.

That's why he still recognizes someone else as his father.

Perhaps it was because they were afraid she would be lonely.

So, I'm looking for a... stepfather...

However, even if the mother and daughter were willing.

They wouldn't agree to that.

after all!

One of them was married and had children.

One who is clearly still very young and outstanding.

Nanahara Miya shook her head, banishing the strange thoughts from her mind, and then stepped forward to stand in front of Lu Chen, saying gently:

"Hello, my name is Kusuhara Miyabi."

"Thank you so much for this."

"Lu Chen." Lu Chen smiled slightly and didn't say much. At this moment, Zuo Xiangtaro, who had secretly transformed and then secretly deactivated his transformation, returned.

He was incredulous when he saw Nanahara Miyabi's appearance and heard her gentle tone.

After all, before...

......

Time goes back to a while ago.

Kusuhara Miyabi found Shotaro Hidari with several photos that contained threatening implications.

Akiko and Philip were also there.

The group sat together looking at the photos.

Is it a dopant?

Akiko couldn't help but ask after seeing it.

"Hmm, very likely." Shotaro Hidari stroked his chin with one hand and responded in a low voice.

"I've heard that your Narumi Studio is an expert in this field, so I'll pay a deposit in advance."

Nanahara Miya sat with her legs crossed, speaking arrogantly, her tone suggesting that the matter could be resolved simply by paying money.

Regarding the attitude of Shotaro Sasaki and others.

He was also quite indifferent.

However, Akiko didn't care, because... there was a deposit!!!

She already knew who the woman in front of her was: a senator, and quite wealthy.

As long as you have money, you can be rude...

What does that mean?

People can't just give up money for the sake of dignity, can they?

Therefore, Akiko, beaming with joy, took the initiative to ask, "So, do you know who the culprit is?" Kusuhara Miyabi waved her hand and said:

"I don't know. Politicians are hated. There are so many people in the whole city, how would I know who the criminal is? Besides, if I knew, why would I need to come to you?"

His tone was impatient.

She seemed never to have considered these things, simply leaving the matter to the detective.

In Nanahara Miyabi's opinion, she didn't have the time or energy to waste on such things.

"All right......"

"Then leave this matter to us. However, it's not safe for your daughter to be out there. Don't take her out to run around for a while."

Shotaro glanced at Asuka sitting next to Miyabi Kusuhara and kindly offered some advice.

Compared to the arrogant Kusuhara Miyabi.

The adorable young Asuka.

She's simply an angel!

"She has to go out with me."

As for her safety...

"If you can't even do this much, then coming to you might have been a mistake."

Kusuhara Masashi spoke condescendingly.

Her tone was aggressive and unquestionable, as if she wouldn't allow anyone to challenge her authority.

"Aren't you worried about your daughter's safety?" Shotaro asked, puzzled. Even if someone was arranged to protect her, what if something happened? No one could guarantee that everything would be alright.

Even he understood this principle, so how could Kusuhara Masako, as a member of parliament, not understand it?

Is she willing to disregard her child's safety in order to have her child join her in building the second Wind Tower?

“I’m fine, Uncle,” Asuka said crisply.

"uncle?"

Shotaro turned around abruptly, utterly incredulous at the address the little girl had uttered. He was clearly a handsome twenty-year-old young man; how could he be being called "uncle"?

Do I really look that old?

The memory ends.

When Shotaro looked up, he found Kusuhara Masashi standing in front of him with his arms crossed.

She remained haughty, her beautiful eyes filled with deep disdain as she looked at him.

"Detective, you have really disappointed me."

"Ah... that..." Shotaro tried to explain, but the other party didn't give him a chance.

Nanahara Miya shook her head with a cold snort, then looked at Lu Chen gently and said:

"Mr. Lu, can we entrust you with protecting my daughter and me from now on?"

Shotaro's lips twitched. He was so rude to me, but so gentle to him?

This is discriminatory treatment...

Isn't that a bit too obvious?!

Shotaro's expression suddenly changed.

"Wait? So you mean you're going to cancel your engagement with me and go after him?"

Nanahara Miyako still ignored him, looking at Lu Chen with anticipation.

"Protect you?"

"Sure, but the price you'll have to pay for entrusting me with this task is no small matter. Are you sure?"

Lu Chen's lips curled up.

Upon hearing this, Nanahara Miyabi spoke with great confidence:

"Whatever you need, I will do my best to meet it!"

As a member of parliament, although he was not a very popular one, he still had power and money.

Let's not even talk about being richer than a country.

But at least in her opinion, entrusting Lu Chen with this task once was more than enough.

Whatever Lu Chen wants.

She can satisfy all of them!

"Really? Then what if..." Lu Chen stepped forward, came to Nan Yuan Ya's side, and whispered in her ear, "What if I want you?"

Nanahara Miyabi's body trembled, her red lips pressed tightly together.

This price is really not simple.

but......

"If you can help me build the second Wind Tower smoothly, and if my daughter and I are safe, I can agree to your request!"

Kusuhara Miyabi said earnestly, "As long as we can successfully build the second Fuuto Tower, what does it matter if I have to sacrifice myself..."

Anyway, giving it to Lu Chen won't be a loss for me.

Lu Chen smiled.

"That's right, then I understand."
