Meng Xinian heard this, and raised his eyebrows faintly.
"This kind of talk, Deputy Du, please don't say it again in the future. It sounds as if I almost abducted your daughter. How did I hear that your daughter is only ten years old?"
"Well..." Deputy Du suddenly found himself at a loss, shaking his head and saying, "My daughter is indeed only ten years old! What I meant was Jinruo."
Seeing Meng Xinian's indifferent expression, he continued, "Don't tell me you didn't know that Jinruo is my cousin's daughter?"
"I didn't pay attention. None of that has anything to do with work," Meng Xinian replied. "Besides, the statement you made earlier was really incorrect. Between Comrade Du Jinruo and me, there's no such thing as familiarity. At most, I can say I know her, I know of her, and recognize who she is. How does that translate to almost being family?"
