Shi Guang bolted and sat upright.

“You’ve had someone check that he’s actually a woman?” Shi Guang’s heart was pounding furiously.

That’s right! Just as she thought! How could someone with such delicate features be a man?

And her guts told her that this was her sister as well!

“I don’t know about whether or not he’s a woman,” Lu Yanchen sat up as well and analyzed things through with her. “But, the time when Rong Mo appeared coincided with the time when your sister went missing, it’s just too uncanny for someone to pop out of nowhere. Furthermore, there are little details to be found about him. Given this muddy background of his and his resemblance to your sister, there’s no reason why he shouldn’t be her. The only issue right now is his gender.”

This was Shi Guang’s greatest doubt as well as she knitted her brows tightly. “That’s right, whether or not he’s a woman should be the main point. But when I asked him, he said that he’s a man and thus can’t be my sister.”

“You’re really gullible!” Lu Yanchen pinched at her nose. “If he wanted to pretend as a man, he’d naturally not tell anyone of his actual gender! Besides, if he were your sister, have you ever considered why he might want to pretend to be a woman?”

Shi Guang nodded her head gently. “Yeah, I did. So that when others are present, I will not accidentally let slip something that is unsuitable. But when I questioned him, there was only the two of us. If he truly is my sister, there’s no reason why he should lie to me.”

“If he is your sister... we don’t even know why she went missing in the first place. But, she would definitely know herself! And even if she doesn’t, she would be able to guess that she’s in danger, and hence the reason why she changed her gender to try and protect herself. You’ve only met with him for a couple of times so far. There’s no reason why he would trust you!”

Shi Guang’s feelings were really complex right now as she said broodily, “I’m not any outsider, I’m her sister! If he truly is my sister, he can doubt anyone but me! In the past, the doctor had said that even if vegetables are in a coma, they’ve got a sense of consciousness. Even if I’m grown up now and she might not remember my face, my name has not changed!”

“What if she doesn’t even remember that too?”

“You mean, everything?”

“The doctor said that vegetables would suffer brain damage from being unconscious for a long time, and the damaged part may very well be the cerebellum. That’s the reason why they may not even remember who they are when they wake up. Think about it, for someone who has been unconscious for 7 years and waking up without a memory, their consciousness would be stuck 7 years ago as well.”

As he continued, he held her hand. “Besides, we don’t even know how your sister went missing as well. If it were her and she truly is your sister, I do not permit you to go acknowledge your ties with her right away before we check everything conclusively. I’m afraid that this might be a conspiracy—this is the best option for both you and her.”

Shi Guang’s head was splitting.

How did something she had thought to be really simple turn so complicated?

Yet, she could not deny that Lu Yanchen was right.

“Then what should we do now? Everything you’ve guessed was based on the foundation that Rong Mo is my sister. What if he isn’t?”

Lu Yanchen gave a fake smile as he said in a resigned manner, “I told you, everything is still undergoing investigation.”

Shi Guang’s entire body went limp.

He kissed her on the forehead consolingly. “The reason why I’m telling you these things is not just so you can get disappointed.”

“I’m not.” She smiled out. “I’m rather happy. Whether or not I acknowledge her doesn’t matter as long as she’s my sister!”
