Granny’s grandson was named Shang Mo. And it was also because of his arrival that Rong Mo found out that the place she was staying in was the prestigious Shang Family of the capital.

The first time she made contact with this man, she felt a dangerous feeling from him.

His looks were divinely handsome—they didn’t look like something mere humans would see much. Wearing a pair of spectacles, he looked as though he was gentlemanly and decent. However, the gaze that was peering through those gla.s.ses with told a different story as they pierced right through her heart, reading her like an open book.

When he smiled, it was warm like a radiant sun. However, his eyes told of an evilness that was lurking in the shadows of the sunlight. Even though she had merely exchanged a simple glance with him, she could already sense that boundless darkness hidden in his heart, sending a chill down her spine.

At the same time, she could sense that he was clearly displeased toward the sudden appearance of a boy in his house.

Her fear toward this new and unknown world caused her to s.h.i.+rk once more, not daring to reveal the truth to the granny any longer.

And rumors had it that Shang Mo was an extremely twisted man who went for both men and women. Despite that, it was said that his harem was mostly filled with women; thus, men should be a little safer.

But on hindsight, Rong Mo presumed that if this was her own granny bringing a stranger home all of a sudden, she too would definitely feel wary. As such, she wouldn’t blame Shang Mo for disliking her and sending people to check up on her background.

However, she presumed that Shang Mo shouldn’t have managed to dig out everything about her. That was the reason why he suspected that she was his father’s illegitimate son and tried testing the waters with her, throwing her straight onto the role of the 2nd male lead right after the initial actor reneged on the contract.

Now that she had exposed her ident.i.ty to the world as a man, she did not know what to expect for the future.

Just like that, two months had pa.s.sed and she found herself discovering many things about this world—things she was certain had not existed in her memory bank.

For example, computers used to be something that were really expensive and bulky. At the very most, every family would have one of them. But now? Everyone could hold one in their hands and it was really light, just like a notebook.

Taking phones for example, in her memory, those things used to be black and white. But now, they were all colorful and multifunctional. Not only could one make calls, one could browse the internet and have video calls!

And there was even something called iPad that was a combination of those two, which people called a tablet or something.

There were so many things that seemed as though the world had changed from an ancient civilization to a brand new technological heaven.

And that girl called s.h.i.+ Guang… Who was she?

The reason why Rong Mo went to the swimming compet.i.tion the other day was because of a single statement in her mind.

Sister, I’m a swimming champion.

Would her sister be taking part in this compet.i.tion too?

When she b.u.mped into s.h.i.+ Guang at the compet.i.tion hall, she did wonder for a moment if this girl could be her sister.

The image of her sister in her mind was really fuzzy right now. Even though her voice was clear, Rong Mo was certain that it was that of a small girl around the age of 12. Besides, she herself was only 18 now, and s.h.i.+ Guang was already 20! There was no way that could be her sister.

Furthermore, if her surname was Mo, then it was all the more impossible for s.h.i.+ Guang to be her sister—they couldn’t possibly be siblings with different surnames.

What about friends?

Could s.h.i.+ Guang have been her friend?

Also, she said earlier on that she was there to look for Qian Xun. But, when s.h.i.+ Guang heard that she liked to paint, it was clear that she was evidently agitated and gripped her arm tightly!

What was she trying to say?

Could she trust this s.h.i.+ Guang?
