Rong Mo returned to the Shang residences and sat beside the table in her bedroom. There was an a.s.sortment of books on the cabinets on the table—Rong Mo had read through all of those.
She took out a diary with many names on it—Qian Xun, Su Ya, Lin Yi’er, Yang Sitong and s.h.i.+ Guang. It was as though they were all in a circle.
There was a line between Su Ya and Qian Xun—auntie and niece.
Right in the middle of it all was a name—Mo Feifei. She drew a line between Mo Feifei and Su Ya. Thinking for a moment, she wrote down ‘Not Friends’.
She then drew a line between Mo Feifei and s.h.i.+ Guang—sisters.
There was a limit to the number of things she could recall. If she wanted to have her memories back entirely, G.o.d knows when that would happen. She could only rely on herself to slowly navigate and investigate right now.
And at this point when she couldn’t remember anything, the best way for her to continue investigating was to remain in the entertainment scene. She had to expose herself before everyone and have them take the initiative to come look for her.
But, if she wanted to stay in this circle, she would require Shang Mo’s help.
Staying a little longer in the room, Rong Mo closed the diary and headed downstairs to look for Shang Mo.
Big Mountain had informed her earlier on that there was a guest today. However, there was no one in the living room. Rong Mo presumed that the guest should be resting at this time, and Shang Mo should be in the study settling his work.
Rong Mo headed to the study and knocked on the door—it wasn’t locked.
Marching in, she saw no one inside.
Just as she was about to leave, she caught sight of an open information folder on the table. Of all things, it was her photo right on top.
Shang Mo was still investigating her?
Rong Mo took a couple of steps forth, wanting to know what Shang Mo was investigating. The moment she reached the desk, the sounds of the door unlocking drifted out.
Instantly, she hid herself behind the desk.
The moment she did so, she regretted it. What was she hiding for out of no reason? Wouldn’t it have been fine if she had just taken a couple of steps back and told him that she was looking for him? Now, her guilty action would only make it clear that she was snooping around like a thief.
Just as she was thinking about how to deal with this, a woman’s voice rang out, “Brother Shang, do you really not know of my feelings?”
Rong Mo recalled about the guest that Big Mountain had mentioned. This should be it—one of Shang Mo’s women out there!
“Annie Zhao, I’ve still got things to settle. If you have nothing on, go look for Yuyu instead.” Shang Mo replied coldly.
“Brother Shang, we’ve grown up together. Don’t you know me well enough? I’m different from my elder sister… I truly like you. As long as you’re willing to be with me, I’ll do anything you want me to!” Annie Zhao refused to leave as she looked at Shang Mo longingly.
However, the latter wasn’t interested in her confession in the slightest bit. His voice was getting impatient now, bringing with it a repressed sense of threat. “Does your father know of these things you’re telling me?”
Annie Zhao was stunned for a moment before replying moodily, “Daddy will definitely approve of us getting together. My daddy is really fond of you, and is always asking my younger brother to learn more from you.”
Shang Mo merely scoffed coldly as though he had just heard some terrible joke.
Annie Zhao continued. “Brother Shang, you must understand that my sister… she’s already married! It’s impossible for you guys to be together anymore! You should stop pining for her.”
Pining for her?
Shang Mo’s lips curled in cold mockery!
