Rong Mo looked at the photos in the phone with complex, strange feelings that she could not describe.
She didn’t understand Shang Mo, so how would she know what type of girls he fancied?
However, since granny wanted her to take the task, she’ll just have to take a good look for a girl with a decent image, family background and a gentle temperament.
Rong Mo went through the girls while enjoying some snacks that were laid out on the coffee table.
Before she knew it, she had already finished all the snacks available and her tummy was puffing up.
Being the type of person that would fall into a food coma if they were full, Rong Mo laid down and continued reading through – this girl seemed rather decent and had a similar family background to Shang Mo…
By the time Granny Shang came out, she found Rong Mo curled on the sofa like a kitten, the phone still in her hands.
This child… is really too naïve. I asked you to pick, meaning you could take your time to pick. I didn’t mean that you had to go through ALL of them at a single go!
It was winter and even though there was a heater in the house, it was still cold sleeping on the sofa like that.
Granny Shang did not wake Rong Mo up. Instead, she went to the bedroom and took out a blanket before covering Rong Mo gently with it.
Suddenly, Granny Shang froze in her tracks and was staring at a certain part on Rong Mo’s pants – there was a patch of red on her beige pants. As a woman, her natural reaction was to think that it was a period stain.
Rong Mo wasn’t in a deep sleep. When she sensed that someone was staring at her, she opened her eyes slowly and sat up. “Granny.”
As though she had just woken up from a dream, Granny Shang looked at Rong Mo weirdly. “You… you’re a girl?”
Rong Mo was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Granny Shang would ask that out of the blue.
Granny Shang then pointed at her pants, causing Rong Mo to bolt up in shock. She turned back and looked at the sofa. Thankfully, there wasn’t any stains…
Without saying anything more, Rong Mo dashed into her bedroom with a flushed face.
Ever since she woke up from her coma, her period was always irregular.
The previous time round, she found herself dirtying the bed when she woke up and she could recall the weird gaze Shang Mo was giving her as she washed her own bed sheets the following day.
It was later on through Baidu that she found out about the reason behind why men would wake up early in the morning to wash their own bedsheets1.
No wonder Shang Mo would always scold her about only thinking about fooling around every day…
After Rong Mo cleaned herself up, Granny Shang was still waiting for her in the living room.
Nervously, Rong Mo inched over before sitting down opposite Granny Shang and lowering her head in shame. “Sorry, granny. I didn’t mean to lie to you.”
Rong Mo, really is a girl…
Granny Shang was lost in a stupor for the longest time with a flurry of emotions.
Surprise, shock and a little bit of anger were all mixed together.
Finally, she sighed. “But you still did!”
“I’m really, really, really sorry! But at that time, I lost my memory and there were people trying to harm me! That’s the reason why I pretended to be a boy to protect myself! After you brought me home, I wanted to tell you the truth, granny. But right at that moment…”
“Ah Mo returned.” Granny Shang completed her sentence. She looked at Rong Mo deeply. Shang Mo had been spending time with her for so long as a single man – has he found out about her gender yet?
She recalled the vehement objections that Shang Mo had when she had just brought Rong Mo home. He would barely even bother to glance at her, let alone be concerned about her like a brother like now.
