    The question from his only daughter made Mirza a little surprised, for a moment. However, Mirza remained still and relaxed in responding to Lusi's question. "It's impossible for such a father to burden your husband with strange tasks that violate the rules," "Really? Don't you lie?" "Hmm. Are you still doubting your own father?"
