The lady’s gaze shifted to Aad and Gu Dai, her expression complex, “Your sister is quite fortunate, to have caught the princess’s eye in such a short time.”

Su Ting responded coolly, then asked, “Are you and the princess close?”

The lady’s expression changed slightly, and she turned away without answering Su Ting’s question.

Su Ting moved to a corner and took out his phone to take a picture of the woman.

Gu Dai looked at the photo and asked softly, “Does this woman have the mysterious scent on her?”

Su Ting nodded, “Yes, I’ve already sent her picture to my subordinates. We should receive the search results soon.”

After finishing her conversation, Aad approached Gu Dai with a smile, offering, “This red wine is delicious, would you like to try?”

Su Ting instinctively shielded Gu Dai behind him, “She doesn’t drink.”

Aad sounded disappointed, “Okay, then.”

She then looked up at Su Ting and asked, “What were you discussing with Wang Sui just now?”

Su Ting frowned, “Wang Sui?”

Aad scoffed, “That ugly middle-aged woman.”

Now understanding who Wang Sui was, Gu Dai looked at Aad and inquired, “Do you dislike Wang Sui?”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Aad nodded, venting, “That Wang Sui has been seducing my dad, aiming to become my stepmother, and the worst part is my dad actually likes her, treating her even better than he treats me.”

She gritted her teeth, “My dad even arranged for my birthday banquet activities to be at Wang Sui’s house.”

After Aad’s complaints, she was called away by a friend.

The investigation information about Wang Sui arrived at that moment.

[We didn’t find much information about Wang Sui, only that she had been in contact with a mysterious man and has a secret room in her house]

Gu Dai’s brows furrowed instantly. Given Wang Sui’s access to the king, she was undoubtedly not a simple figure, and her identity was well-hidden, including the existence of a secret room. All signs pointed to one conclusion…

Gu Dai stated, “Wang Sui must be connected to my parents.”

Su Ting nodded, “We’ll find a chance to explore her house later.”

As Wang Sui led everyone to her home, her gaze occasionally flickered with wariness.

Her vigilance was particularly evident, noticeable not only to Gu Dai but also to Aad.

Aad sneered, “Auntie Wang, if you’re not welcoming me to your home, you should’ve said so earlier.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Wang Sui’s face stiffened, but she quickly composed herself and smiled, “We’re about to become family. How could I not welcome you?”

Aad’s expression darkened immediately, and she snapped, “Don’t delude yourself into thinking you can marry my dad. He’s just playing with you; he’ll never marry you!”

Wang Sui looked grievously behind Aad, “Your daughter says you won’t marry me, is that true?”

Lin Chen hurriedly stepped forward, embracing Wang Sui to comfort her, “Suisui, don’t listen to her nonsense. I promise I will marry you…”

Aad, furious, turned red in the face and began to argue with Lin Chen, her father.

Taking advantage of the situation, Gu Dai and Su Ting searched for the location of the secret room, which, according to their subordinate’s investigation, should be in the hall where they were currently standing.

Su Ting suggested, “There must be a hidden mechanism.”

Gu Dai nodded, recalling how Wang Sui had looked worriedly in a certain direction upon entering the hall.

Looking in that direction, she saw a landscape painting hanging on the wall.

The minimalist decoration of the Wang house made the plain landscape painting blend in seamlessly. However, Wang Sui’s nervous glances at the painting made it seem like there was more to it.

Thinking this, Gu Dai’s gaze cooled, and she walked over to the painting.

Before Wang Sui could feel triumphant from her act of garnering sympathy from Lin Chen, she saw Gu Dai standing in front of the painting, startling her so much that she trembled, and quickly asked, “What are you doing?”

Initially just suspicious, Gu Dai’s certainty grew upon seeing Wang Sui’s nervous reaction.

She scanned the painting and noticed a small protrusion in the middle.

Gu Dai reached to press the button, but before her hand could touch it, Wang Sui grabbed her.

Wang Sui asked sternly, “What are you trying to do?”

Gu Dai freed her hand and smiled, “Miss Wang, I just thought your painting looked quite nice. I got lost in it for a moment..”
