"Ling Miao, why's your surname Ling?"
Nameless Nie curiously stared at the girl.
"Why is your surname Nie?" the girl retorted.
"My dad's surname is Nie," Nameless Nie replied.
"But isn't your father's surname Ling?" Ling Miao glanced at him.
"Eh, my dad's situation is a bit special… You can take it as I took my mom's surname." Nameless Nie's expression was a bit awkward.
"I also took my mom's surname. Is there a problem?" Ling Miao said detachedly.
"What I meant was… where did your dad go?" Nameless Nie was blunt.
Ling Miao pondered over it for a moment and didn't evade the question. "My dad abandoned my mom and me and ran off with another woman."
"Huh?"
Nameless Nie was astonished. "I thought your dad died, your mom was a widow, and you were an orphan…"
Ling Miao: "…"
"However, Great Aunt Ling is so pretty! Why would your dad run off with another woman? Could it be that woman is prettier than Great Aunt Ling?" Nameless Nie inquired nosily.
