My girlfriend isn't as cute as me.

For example, anime like *Cardcaptor Sakura*, *Mirmo Zibang!*, *Sugar Sugar Rune*, *Shugo Chara!*, and *Pretty Cure*. Mo Xiao even asked her husband to watch them with her, and the couple would stay up until midnight, writing reviews afterwards. It was like an anime club, and the couple's relationship actually improved as a result, becoming even more loving.

Mo Xiao remembered, wasn't this... that magical girl who could turn keys into hammers!

It turns out that wasn't an animated film, but a documentary!

"Hello, Auntie..."

Lin Jiu greeted them obediently and honestly.

He understood, he understood completely, he understood it at a glance.

That look, that familiar feeling, it's exactly the same as Wang Yuting's!

This is definitely their biological child!

"Don't call me 'Auntie'! Call me 'Mom'! From today onwards, you'll be my child!"

Mo Xiao reached out and lifted Lin Jiu high, spinning her around. She had absolutely no resistance to such cute girls.

Yuting was just as adorable once upon a time, but it's like she's on steroids; her height just kept increasing after sixth grade. While it's true that your own daughter is always the cutest, other people's daughters are just as lovely!

Lin Jiu was dizzy from Mo Xiao's spinning, so he could only cover his short skirt with both hands to avoid revealing his men's underwear.

Careless.

I was careless and didn't flash.

Lin Jiu hadn't expected the school uniform skirt Wang Yuting had given him to be so short! The reason he'd spent so long fussing in the restroom was because he couldn't accept that the skirt was above his knees. The two skirts he'd worn before, the longest almost reached his ankles, and the next shortest, were still around his knees—at least they made him feel safe.

Lin Jiu felt a sense of dread, as if a sharp blade was about to be drawn, and desperately tried to control the gun.

"Mother!!"

Wang Yuting used the Flying Dragon Cloud-Piercing Hand technique to pull Lin Jiu over. Her technique was exquisite and her target precise, like grabbing a stray kitten by the scruff of its neck in mid-air. This superhuman reflexes were extraordinary.

"Don't do that, you'll scare him!"

Wang Yuting held Lin Jiu in her arms as if protecting her child, turning her body to shield Lin Jiu from the dizziness and lightheadedness.

Mo Xiao complained, "You're so stingy!"

Wang Yuting completely ignored her. She looked at Lin Jiu with concern and asked, "Are you alright?"

"Um……"

Lin Jiu slowly exhaled, trying to get used to the dizziness.

He slowly released his grip on the skirt, successfully protecting the high ground.

I almost suffered social death, thank goodness...

wrong!

My situation isn't much better right now!

Lin Jiu finally realized how terrible his situation was. What mother-in-law and father-in-law would want their daughter to marry a man who dresses as a woman? Although it is said that we are now in a period of reform and opening up, and that having a son or a daughter is the same, this is not what it means!

Oh no, what should I do?

Should I play along and pretend to be a girl, or tell the truth?

Lin Jiu paused for a moment, already having an answer in her heart.

He chose the latter.

You can fool people for a while, but you can't fool them forever.

Lin Jiu once said that he wanted Wang Yuting to be with him with blessings.

Surely we can't fail to take the first step?

"……It's fine."

Lin Jiu patted Wang Yuting on the shoulder, giving her a reassuring look.

He took a step forward and stood in front of Wang Yuting, looking up at the imposing Mo Xiao.

"Hello, Auntie, my name is Lin Jiu, and I'm Yuting's roommate..."

A gentle breeze blew in from the window, causing Lin Jiu's white skirt to sway slightly, her slender legs firmly planted on the floor. Her palms were sweaty with nervousness, but she mustered her courage, her expression resolute.

"I'm a boy."

Lin Jiu looked directly at the other person. He had no intention of lying; a lie repeated a thousand times would never become the truth.

Mo Xiao stared at Lin Jiu, her eyes narrowing slightly, her expression changing subtly.

Wang Yuting instinctively wanted to explain for Lin Jiu, but Lin Jiu reached out and stopped her.

There is no need for explanation, nor is there any requirement to explain.

To be fair, it's true that Lin Jiu's reason for wearing women's clothing was largely due to Wang Yuting. But ultimately, it was his own choice, not something forced upon him. If he were willing to wear women's clothing just because someone forced him, then he wouldn't be that kind of person.

A man who would wear women's clothing to make the person he likes happy—that's what makes a real man.

"...When did you two start living together?"

Mo Xiao's tone was heavy, and it was clear that she was not in a good mood.

Last Friday.

"It's only been a few days..."

Mo Xiao seemed to have made up her mind, and took a step forward towards Lin Jiu.

A successful woman often possesses a unique aura, and Mo Xiao is a perfect example. Every step she takes exudes the oppressive presence of someone at the top of the food chain, her aura unstoppable.

Wang Yuting is very good at fighting, right?

She learned this martial art from her mother.

Even ten Lin Jius might not be able to defeat Mo Xiao.

Even if you try to create a virtual space in your mind to find a solution, the result will be zero.

Just as Lin Jiu was bracing herself for being scolded or even beaten, Mo Xiao suddenly lowered her head.

"sorry."

"...Huh?"

Lin Jiu was a little confused.

"How old are you? Are you in junior high school yet?" Mo Xiao showed a pained expression. She never expected that her daughter would actually lay a hand on a child. She had only been away from her for a year, and she had already gone so far as to abduct another child to her home.

"If Yuting has done anything to offend you, Auntie will not take her side and will definitely get justice for you." Mo Xiao turned to look at Wang Yuting, her eyes sharp. She hadn't expected this brat to dare to deceive an innocent child.

Even I wouldn't dare do something like that!

"No, no! Auntie, you've misunderstood!"

Lin Jiu finally understood the situation, and for the sake of Wang Yuting's reputation, he quickly explained, "I'm an adult!"

"Really?"

"real!"

"I do not believe."

Mo Xiao pinched Lin Jiu's cheek; it felt soft and smooth, like the touch of a baby's skin.

This kid looks to be no more than twelve years old. Don't lie to me!

"I'll show you my ID card, okay?!"

Having no other choice, Lin Jiu resorted to this clumsy method to prove himself.

After Mo Xiao took Lin Jiu's ID card and checked it several times, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Great.

My daughter did not break the law.

Although he's a bit simple-minded, a bit foolish, and a bit clumsy, he's a good kid because he obeys the law.

"Aunt……"

Lin Jiu thought for a moment, then decided to ask, "Don't you think it's inappropriate for me to be like this?"

"What's inappropriate?" Mo Xiao looked Lin Jiu up and down and asked, "What's inappropriate about it?"

"I'm a boy."

Lin Jiu sighed helplessly.

"A boy?" Mo Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly and said matter-of-factly, "Wouldn't that be even better?"

"Please use it."

"Thank you."

Lin Jiu poured a glass of warm water and handed it to his future mother-in-law.

Mo Xiao nodded and thanked him politely, looking at Lin Jiu as if she were her own child.

The Wang family never hesitates to express their feelings; they always say thank you when they should, because nothing is owed. This is also why Mo Xiao and her husband have never had a major argument in all their years of marriage—they always respect and understand each other. Even when disagreements do occur, and they are momentarily blinded by emotions, they eventually realize their mistakes once they calm down.

It was this family education that made Wang Yuting endure for a year and not lay a hand on Lin Jiu when he was a minor.

It was this very belief that led Mo Xiao to mistakenly believe that his daughter was able to harden her heart and do the right thing when she was practicing philandering.

Those who should apologize should apologize, those who should compensate should compensate, and those who should go to jail should go to jail.

It's the same for everyone.

"Just plain water, I'm sorry, we don't have anything nice to offer..."

Lin Jiu originally wanted to brew tea, but there were no tea sets at home; even a skilled cook can't cook without ingredients.

In the south, people usually serve tea when entertaining guests, as they cannot live without tea.

It's not just about drinking tea, but also about the sense of ritual.

It's a little past three, time for some tea.
