"Don't doubt it. It's just like you think. Your mother's surname is Mei, and her name is Mei Shi. Your father's surname is Ming, and his name is Ming Yi."

As if truly reading minds, the "Mermaid" spoke these words to Mingmei, who was questioning her identity.

[Is that the answer, Gui Gui?]

Gui Gui: [??? Host, have you lost your mind? Don't you know your parents' names?]

Realizing her question was ambiguous, Mingmei continued: [I mean, in the game setting, for my character and the boxed lunch NPC, are there any other settings? Like what are the character's parents' names? It wouldn't be the same as in reality, would it?]

Mingmei was worried that she was just being sentimental and that her uncle was deliberately causing trouble by creating this NPC to deceive her.

However, Gui Gui also wanted to say that its host was indeed being a bit sentimental.

Gui Gui: [No, you're overthinking it.]

Although Yan Hui had many perverse hobbies, there was no need to target one person to disgust, right?

Just as Mingmei and Gui Gui were confirming whether the "Mermaid" in front of them was real, the other party saw Mingmei not speaking and laughed first.

She cleared her throat and introduced herself to Mingmei, "My name is Feng Li, but I prefer you call me 'A Li.' Well, if you don't mind, you can also call me 'Sister.' After all, I'm over seventy years old, much older than you."

Mingmei, who was actually eighty years old: "..."

Perhaps, maybe, probably, this "sister" should be taken the other way around?

After a few seconds, Mingmei glanced at Oulai behind her and asked softly, "Is he also?"

"No, he isn't." As she spoke, Feng Li stretched out her pale and slender hand to grasp the hand of the person behind her. Oulai did not resist, allowing Feng Li to hold his hand.

Oulai lowered his head and looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes full of tenderness, and also with an intense devotion that Mingmei couldn't understand. Then, Mingmei heard Feng Li say in a quiet voice, "But he will always belong to me."

Mingmei: "..."

Mingmei didn't know why, but she felt that when the other party said this, her tone carried a hint of *chuunibyou* (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), but looking at the other party's serious expression, Mingmei couldn't say anything else.

*Chuunibyou* and serious _(：3」∠)_

The contrast with her stunningly beautiful face was a bit too much.

"Your surname always makes me think of some not-so-good things."

To ease the awkward atmosphere between Mingmei and the other party, Mu Chen suddenly spoke. He wasn't just changing the subject randomly; his words caught the attention of everyone present.

Feng Li suddenly raised her head, and when Mingmei met Feng Li's amethyst eyes, she suddenly remembered where she had seen those eyes before.

Wasn't the true form of the Zerg who had fled in the game also a pair of purple eyes?

She remembered that the Zerg's surname seemed to be "Feng"?

No way?

Such a coincidence?

Could they be "family"?

However, besides those amethyst-like eyes, the other party also had that rhombus-shaped, glittering fish scale at the corner of her eye, a clear sign of a mermaid.

How could Mingmei not understand?

The person in front of her was the only one connected to Oulai in his relationship chart, and also a Zerg hybrid!

"You, are you also a hybrid?"

Even though she was already sure in her heart, Mingmei still asked hesitantly.

Her gaze fell on the other party's golden and dazzling fishtail below her waist, and she was still unwilling to believe that the person in front of her was actually a hybrid.

A hybrid of her most hated Zerg.

"Yes."

Feng Li smiled, and seeing the entanglement on Mingmei's face, her smile deepened.

Mingmei's little expressions were really similar to Mei Shi's, very similar to the woman who had taken her back to heal her when she was seriously injured and dying.

Thinking of when she had revealed her identity to the other party, the expression on the other party's face was not exactly the same as Mingmei's, but it was not far off.

At that time, the other party had also sighed in disappointment, "So, the reason why the tears you cry don't turn into pearls is because you're a hybrid?"

Although Feng Li really wanted to say that purebred mermaids didn't cry tears either, she still swallowed the words back, considering the other party's expectant look when she mentioned mermaids.

In this short moment, Feng Li remembered the time she had lived with Mingmei as a couple, knowing that the other party had several children. Although she didn't know the exact number, seeing Mingmei here, it was obvious that she was a military academy student.

A military academy student, how young.

Feeling sentimental in her heart, Feng Li looked at Mingmei with a kind of loving gaze that Mingmei couldn't understand.

Mingmei also felt a little uncomfortable meeting the other party's gaze.

It was like the unease of being about to be called on by the teacher in class.

"Although I don't really like the Zerg identity either, I have to admit that half of the Zerg bloodline allows me to have a place here."

When Feng Li said this, Mingmei's pupils couldn't help but widen slightly, her face full of shock.

In other words, the person behind Oulai was only Feng Li from beginning to end, and Feng Li was also one of the upper-level managers of the underground city?!

In that instant, many thoughts flashed through Mingmei's mind, but thousands of words finally converged into one sentence—"Do you like to eat seafood barbecue?"

Feng Li: ???
