“Doctor, is my wife alright? Why isn’t she awake yet?”

“Judging from the results, apart from the superficial wounds, only the damaged tissues of her right leg are a bit of a problem — everything else is fine. She should wake up soon.”

“Then can we leave once she wakes up, doctor? We don’t want her to stay in the hospital.”

“This … if you are adamant about her recuperating at home, it is fine but take notice not to stress her leg. It needs time to heal properly.”

“Yes, of course. Thank you, doctor.”

Tang Tang raised her ears as she secretly listened to the conversation. She didn’t dare to open her eyes. Even her breathing was kept at a slow pace so others wouldn’t know she was actually awake.

When the conversation ended, she heard a set of footsteps walking further and further away. The man had left, and only the woman who was speaking before remained in the room.

“Ai, there is really never a moment of peace. Marrying this woman really is unfortunate. I really don’t know what he was thinking at the time. And he is such a talented man as well. Ah!” It was like she suddenly remembered something and quickly left the room, and it became silent once again.

After she was certain the room was empty, she slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was a white ceiling and a square object installed into it.

Tang Tang quietly let out a breath. Then she slowly looked at her surroundings. The more she looked, the more worried she became.

What a strange place. There were many objects that she had never seen before. As people walked past her room, she noticed that even the clothes that people wore were strange. Also, she noticed the men had very short hair while the women actually let their hair loose. No matter how she looked at it, it was all very strange to her.

Where was she?

She was dead. Her older step sister had pushed her into the water. There were many people who had witnessed it but no one came to save her. Her nanny was the only one who loved her but she had been kicked out of the household. No one would save her. There was no point in living so she might as well give up and let the water drown her. Maybe she would see her mother in the other world and experience a mother’s love. So shouldn’t she be in the nether world? Why was she here?

Or was this the nether world? No, no, no, it can’t be. Even though she didn’t know what the nether world looked like, she was certain this was not the place because she could see that the people here were still alive. So this couldn’t be the place called the nether world.

Tang Tang was getting increasingly confused. She used all her strength to pinch her arm. It was so painful she almost screamed out in pain. That proved she was not dreaming. Everything was real.

Since she couldn’t figure out what happened, Tang Tang subconsciously looked down. She was shocked again at the sight of herself.

She was so skinny — and unbelievably thin. Her wrist looked like it could be snapped when twisted. While her hands looked like chicken claws, it was just skin and bones. The bones were visibly sticking out and it looked like they would puncture through the skin at any time. What was even scarier were the blue veins visible on her skin because she was too thin. Her body looked so different compared to her original self.

Tang Tang was certain this was not her. This body was not hers. She was in someone else’s body!

This thought scared Tang Tang so much that her heart pounded rapidly. It was unfathomable. It was impossible but the truth was right in front of her. Just like in those written stories she had read, she had transmigrated.

Tang Tang pinched herself a couple of times again. It was so painful, her tears started falling but nothing changed. She had really transmigrated.

Tang Tang's heart pounded faster than before. She didn’t know what to do so she closed her eyes while covering her chest with one hand as she forced herself to accept this reality.

In the past, she didn’t have much, but her favourite hobby was reading. She especially liked fantasies. She had also read many books that had transmigration or reincarnation in them. Normally, a character would die unjustly and they would get reincarnated into someone else to exact revenge. In the past, Tang Tang had fantasized that maybe one day she would reincarnate into somebody else’s body and live happily but, at that time, her nanny would always dampen her spirit and her day, telling her that those were fiction and people who read them too much would become stupid. Then her books got confiscated and she was not allowed to read them again.

She never thought that a day when she got transmigrated would actually occur. So transmigration does happen!

The only problem was, where was she? Maybe it was a dynasty she had never heard of before.

Also, who was she at the moment? She didn’t know what to do. How should she handle this? Before she could even decide what to do, there were noises near the door. It was the woman from before. She had come back into the room and grumbled, “Luckily the nursery is nearby, otherwise there wouldn’t be enough time. Ai, really, I’m so busy.”

This time, Tang Tang didn’t pretend to be asleep. Tang Tang opened her eyes and looked at the woman. She appeared to be a healthy middle-aged woman and she seemed to be a good-natured person. But when the woman saw Tang Tang was awake, her gaze became rather unfriendly and there was even a hint of impatience. Her tone of voice was not very friendly either.

“Madam, you’re finally awake.”

Tang Tang kept her lips together and tactfully stayed silent. She was afraid to say something wrong.

The woman didn't seem to mind when Tang Tang stayed silent. Instead, she cleared up the things at the bedside while she said, "Madam, let’s leave the hospital now that you’re awake. You can’t walk on your leg for now but it will heal after some time. There is no need to stay in the hospital. Not to mention it’s a waste of money, I don’t have the time to look after you. Sir hired me to look after Xiao Zhuo. I need to take care of him.”

Madam? Did she call her Madam? Who on earth was she?

Tang Tang blankly kept silent and remained still. The woman frowned but kept her patience, “Madam, don’t blame me. Since Sir had hired me to look after Xiao Zhuo, I need to prioritise him first. If I had to look after you here, I can’t take care of Xiao Zhuo and then Sir would not be happy. So you should rest and recuperate at home. The doctor had said before that you can rest at home.”

Sir? Madam? Xiao Zhuo? Who were they? Tang Tang had many questions but she didn’t dare to say anything rashly. She could only observe silently and decide what her next step should be. In the end, Tang Tang nodded towards the woman.

The woman stared at Tang Tang in astonishment. She didn’t expect her to agree so easily. She even planned to just leave if the Madam decided to be difficult. After all, she was certain that her master would stand on her side, but who would have thought the lady didn’t make a fuss this time. It seems she was different from her usual self.

Tang Tang became uncomfortable as the woman stared at her. Tang Tang moved her sight away and looked at something else while her palms were sweaty. She was afraid that she had exposed herself. After all, no matter how stupid she was, she knew she couldn’t just casually tell someone that she had transmigrated because people would think she was a foreign being and kill her. That would be the end of her.

The woman couldn’t see what was wrong at that moment so she turned around and carried on clearing and packing up the things. There wasn’t much stuff originally so it was soon finished. Then the woman passed Tang Tang the crutches she had brought and carried the things before heading towards the door, “Come, let’s go home.”

Tang Tang took the crutches and moved the blanket to one side before slowly getting out of bed. Only then did she see the bandages wrapped around her left leg. The bandages were pretty thick. So it should be this leg that was injured.

After relying on crutches to get out of bed, she realized she could use this to walk. Tang Tang silently followed the woman from behind as she tried her best to keep up with the woman’s pace. At the same time, she quietly observed her surroundings. Everything she saw was a shock to her she saw something. There were many things she was unfamiliar with, especially the metal case object which people sat in that could travel really quickly in just a moment. It was much faster than a horse carriage. She didn’t know such a thing existed! If she wasn’t afraid of being stated abnormal, she would have stopped to stare at it with her mouth open.

When the metal case finally stopped, she saw a very tall building, a building so tall she couldn’t even see the roof. Tang Tang silently patted her chest. She tried her best to calmly walk behind the woman.

When Aunt Li opened the door, she was not bothered about Tang Tang, who was right behind her. After putting the stuff she was carrying onto the table, she yelled, “Xiao Zhuo, are you hungry? Grandma Li will start cooking now; it will be done very soon.”

“Grandma Li, I’m not hungry," a childlike voice replied.

It was only then did Tang Tang notice a little boy lying on the carpet. Her eyes lit up. What a pretty child! He looked like he was about 3 or 4 years old. He was plump and his skin looked smooth and tender. His cheeks were chubby and his eyes were dark like grapes. He was very cute like a mochi. Tang Tang had never seen such a cute little child before so she was instantly mesmerized. Her gaze did not move and she kept staring at him.

Unfortunately, the little boy didn’t appear to like her very much. When he saw her, he pursed his mouth into a thin line and humphed before turning around and carried on playing. It appeared he wasn’t willing to look at her.

Tang Tang felt a bit helpless. She didn't understand why everyone here didn’t like her. Unless the body’s original owner was a bad person?

Seeing Tang Tang remained still at the door, Aunt Li glanced over suspiciously. She really didn’t want to get involved but if something really did happen it wouldn’t be good for her to explain so she kept her patience and said, “Madam, go and rest in your room. Please don’t mess around unnecessarily. If something really happens to your leg, no one can be responsible for it.”

How would Tang Tang know where her room was? After a quick glance, it seemed the flat had four rooms but which one was hers?

After thinking for a moment, Tang Tang opened her mouth, “That … My leg hurts a bit and I can’t walk very well. Can you help me to my room?”

Aunt Li paused. She was getting rather impatient but she still helped Tang Tang to her room. After enduring her emotions all day, she couldn’t help but nag, “Madam, even though I’m an outsider and am not in the position to speak, I have looked after Xiao Zhuo for a long time, and he also calls me Grandma Li. I want to say, no matter what, you’re Sir’s wife and Xiao Zhuo’s mother. Even if you don’t like them, you should still act like how a wife and mother should be. I don’t request you to treat them well but at least don’t cause trouble for them. This request isn’t excessive, right? Sir works and supports the family alone. It’s difficult to be a soldier — you should try and empathize with him.”

Tang Tang didn’t respond. Her mind was a mess due to Aunt Li’s words. She … she was married? She was also a mother? Then was that little boy her child?

Seeing Tang Tang not paying any attention to her words, Aunt Li was disgusted and felt that this person cannot be saved. She didn’t want to bother with her anymore and left the room, “I will go and cook.”

Soon, there was only Tang Tang alone in the room. Tang Tang sighed in relief. She slowly started to observe her room. Even though everything looked unfamiliar, she was calmer than before. She had grown to accept the unfamiliar things around her as she had heard that the people across the sea were very different from them. Maybe this was somewhere really far away.

Tang Tang soon discovered there was another small room and there was a large clear mirror on the wall. Curious about her appearance, she rushed towards the mirror with her crutches.

“Ah –” Tang Tang was frightened by her appearance that her arms on the crutches almost gave in.

The woman in the mirror looked lifeless. Her hair was dry, lips chapped, and her skin was yellow and rough. Her cheeks were sunk in, and there was little to no meat anywhere. She was just skin and bones. And with the red and purple wounds on her face, she looked hideous!

She was really ugly. Why was she this ugly? How could such an ugly woman get married? Also, that child from before was so beautiful, was he really her child? No matter how she looked, it did not seem like it. Unless the child’s father was especially good looking? But if he was so attractive, then why did he marry someone like her?

Tang Tang couldn’t comprehend. She looked at the mirror again, but she quickly looked away. She was ugly; she didn’t dare to look at herself anymore. With the support of crutches, she returned to her bed before she started to think about what she should do next.

She held no feelings to her own world. After all, no one cared about her there, so she didn’t want to go back. Originally, she thought she would see her mother in the nether world, but she unexpectedly became someone else. Since she was still alive, she had no desire to intentionally die again. God had given her another chance to live, so she would treasure this opportunity. Currently, the biggest problem she had was the fact that she did not know her body’s circumstances. The only fact she knew was that she had a husband and child. She was not alone. But, it appeared that the original owner of this body wasn’t someone good and no one in the house like her. Even the child she gave birth to did not seem to like his mother. She did not know what had happened to the body’s original owner that she would become like this.

In many of the books she had read before, when the character transmigrates, they would also receive the memories from the original body. However, she did not receive any of such. That created a problem because without those memories, she couldn’t imitate the original owner’s attitude and manner. She could only be her real self.

That would raise suspicion, won’t it?

Tang Tang was frustrated as she tapped her head. She racked her brain to come up with a way. In the end, she really did come up with an idea. She could just pretend to suffer from memory loss. It was the only way. By claiming that she couldn’t remember anything, she wouldn’t raise any suspicions.

The more Tang Tang thought about it, the more she thought it was a good idea. She was secretly happy that she came up with such a good idea. She rubbed her cheeks against the pillow and thought the pillows were very soft. It was much better than the ones from her time. Even the blankets were very light. Also, from what she has seen before, the flat looked very clean and pretty. This place was really mystical, ah.

So, she would be living in this mystical place from now on?

Tang Tang turned around, and looked at the living room through the door. She discovered the child from before looking at her but when he found out she was looking at him, he instantly turned his chubby body around and continued playing, almost as if he had never looked at her secretly.

Tang Tang sat up and stared at the child. When she thought such a cute baby was her child, Tang Tang’s heart softened. Tang Tang actually liked children a lot. Whenever she saw a child, she just wanted to hug and kiss them. Unfortunately, all the children in her previous residence were not willing to be touched by her and the adults didn’t let them go close to her small courtyard. So, she could only stand at the gate and watch those cute children occasionally.

Every time her nanny saw her like that, she would sigh and comfort her by saying that when she gets married in the future, she would be free and would have her own children. Tang Tang was also looking forward to marriage and having her own children but her Di mother had never thought about her marriage. As for her father, he had forgotten all about her existence and she was left to survive on her own. By the time she was 18 years old, she was not betrothed to anyone. In the end, she was pushed into the pond by her older step sister and came here, no longer having the opportunity to get married.

But who would have thought that she, who thought would never have the chance to get married, would become someone else's wife here. She even had a child. To others, it might seem like a nightmare, but to her, it was a great surprise because she was no longer alone. She had a family, a husband to protect her!

This had always been her dream.

After throwing away the nervousness she felt from being at an unfamiliar place, Tang Tang was actually secretly delighted.

Staring at the chubby figure. Tang Tang couldn’t stop herself and slowly got out of bed and walked towards the little mochi with her crutches. The little mochi was currently playing with some green and red blocks. His little chubby hands would grip on the blocks tightly as he stacked them, and the figure he was building looked pretty good.

“Bao Bao, you’re very good at this.” Tang Tang praised the little mochi.

Ji Xiao Zhuo’s hand, that was holding the block, froze. He glanced at her in shock but humphed in the next second before he knocked the blocked over.. Then he placed all the blocks back into the box and ran back into his room with it. After shutting the door, he effectively started spreading the blocks again.

Tang Tang scratched her head. She felt a bit helpless. It appeared her child really didn’t like her!

Tang Tang stood up. She felt it wasn’t good for her to do nothing, so she went to find something to do. Seeing Aunt Li so busy in the kitchen, she walked towards the kitchen with the support from the crutches. She took the vegetables, that was placed on one side, and told Aunt Li, “I’ll help you.”

Aunt Li was shocked. She looked back at Tang Tang in astonishment, “Madam, you want to help?”

Tang Tang nodded, “I’ll cut the vegetables. You can cook them.”

Aunt Li’s eyes widened. The surprise in her eyes was very clear. Tang Tang knew this reaction was due to her acting very differently compared to how the original owner behaved. Without the knowledge about the original owner, there was no way for her to imitate, so it was better to be herself since she had already come up with a reason.

Tang Tang smiled at Aunt Li. She stifled the guilt and said, “Actually, there is something I would like to speak to you about.”

Aunt Li’s guard went up and asked, “What is it?”

“Actually… actually I don’t remember anything. My mind is empty and I don’t know what to do. Do you know?

“What? You don’t remember anything?” Aunt Li was flabbergasted and quickly put the knife down, “Madam, you’re not messing around with me, are you?”

Tang Tang waved her hands, “I’m not. I’m not. I really don’t remember anything. I don’t even remember what my name is. I was like this since I woke up but I didn’t dare to say anything and neither do I know what happened to me.”

Aunt Li observed Tang Tang’s expression. Seeing that she really did look like she didn’t know anything and her eyes seemed much calmer and gentler. She did look very different from her ruthless self in the past. It seemed like she was really different. Even when they were in the hospital, she remained quiet which was unlike herself where she would get angry and throw things around.

Aunt Li didn’t quite believed her completely. She couldn’t help but ask, “Then do you remember anything about the car crash?”

Car crash? So, the reason why she came here was because the original owner had died? Tang Tang shook her head at Aunt Li, “Nope, I don’t remember.”

“Then what do you remember?”

Tang Tang shook her head, “I really don’t remember anything. I even forgot your name. Please tell me your name again.”

Aunt Li stared at Tang Tang in suspicion for a while. After confirming she wasn't faking, she suppressed her doubts and carried on cutting the vegetables, “You can just call me Aunt Li. Sir also calls me that.”

“Aunt Li.” Tang Tang nodded and promptly greeted her before going on to separate the vegetables. Also, she used this good opportunity and asked, “Aunt Li, is the child outside my son?”

“En,” Aunt Li confirmed, “Of course that’s your son, but you never treated him as your child though.”

“Why?” Tang Tang blurted out.

Aunt Li impatiently said, “How would I know? I was just hired to look after Xiao Zhuo. I don’t know anything about your family issues.”

Tang Tang was slightly disappointed and gave up asking about it. She asked another question instead, “Then what about my husband? Where is he?”

Aunt Li turned around and glanced at Tang Tang. She replied after a moment of silence, “Sir serves the army. He is very busy and only comes back during his holidays, so he is normally not at home.”

“Oh, okay. So it’s like that.” So it turns out her husband is in the military. What an amazing person. A hero who protects the country. A man like that should be very good, so why did he marry someone like the original owner of this body?

Tang Tang wanted to ask more questions about her husband but Aunt Li didn’t want to carry on with the subject. Putting the vegetables into a pan, Aunt Li started to stir-fry the vegetables and said, “Don’t ask anymore, I’m going to cook. If there is anything else, wait until Sir is back and ask him instead.” She did not even know if the amnesia was true. Also, as a caretaker, it was not good for her to speak without control. Especially when the topic was about someone else's family issues.

So, Tang Tang could only close her mouth and stop asking any more questions. She silently helped out with the cooking.

There were 3 dishes and soup for dinner. The dishes had meat and vegetables. The food was much better than the food Tang Tang was used to. Tang Tang felt the original owner had a pretty good life. She couldn’t help but watch the little mochi seriously eat with his spoon. He was so adorable. He was just a little kid, but he had a solemn expression of an old man. His cheeks bulged as he stuffed his mouth with food and the meat on his cheeks trembled as he ate. He was simply very cute.

Tang Tang really wanted to pinch the little guy’s cheeks, but she knew he wouldn’t approve, so she could only restrain herself.

At this moment, Tang Tang saw the little mochi try to get some shredded potato from one of the dishes with his spoon. After a couple of attempts, he still didn’t manage to get anything and Aunt Li didn’t do anything either. In the end, Tang Tang couldn’t help but pick some with her chopsticks and placed it into the little one’s bowl.

Ji Xiao Zhuo froze. He stared at the potato in his bowl then at Tang Tang. His eyes widened and became a little red. His lips trembled but in the end, he snorted and moved all the potato out from his bowl and angrily said, “I don’t need your help!”

Tang Tang felt a bit helpless, “Bao Bao ….”

Ji Xiao Zhuo didn’t answer her and lowered his head to scoop more rice into his mouth to eat. He did not touch the shredded potato dish anymore.

Tang Tang pursed her lips. She didn’t dare to put food in the little guy’s bowl anymore. She was a bit dejected. She didn’t think the little kid would dislike her so much. No, that was wrong, the little guy disliked the original owner. But, she was now in the original owner’s body so the little boy was now her child. She couldn’t simply be disliked forever, right? That won’t do. She hoped he would come to like her.

After dinner, Aunt Li washed the dishes, and then she decided to watch a drama on TV. When she finished watching two episodes, it was already 9:30 p.m. She knew that children should be going to sleep at this time, however, Xiao Zhuo was still playing on the sofa. Aunt Li patted his back and said, “Xiao Zhuo, it’s 9:30 now. You should take a bath and then go to bed.”

In response, Ji Xiao Zhuo glanced at the time and pursed his lips. He was reluctant to part with the tablet in his hands and softly said, “Aunt Li, I want to wait a bit longer before going to bed.”

Aunt Li glanced at the tablet in his hand and sighed while stroking his head, “Xiao Zhuo ah, it’s already half past nine, your father won’t video call. He must be on a mission. He’ll call you when he is free, so go to sleep first, okay?”

Ji Xiao Zhuo silently lowered his head. He touched the tablet, lifted his head, and replied, “Let me wait for a bit longer. Daddy could call at any minute now. Please?”

Aunt Li could only nod helplessly in response, “Alright, just another 30 minutes, and then you must go to sleep.”

Ji Xiao Zhuo nodded, and then he continued staring at the tablet.

Tang Tang sat silently on the sofa. She also stared at the tablet as she didn’t understand why the little mochi kept staring at it. She also wondered what video call meant.

After 30 minutes passed, Aunt Li didn’t allow Ji Xiao Zhou to continue waiting. She decided to take away the tablet and said, “That’s enough, Xiao Zhuo. It’s 10 p.m. already, so your father won’t call tonight. Now come with me for a bath. It’s time for bed.”

Ji Xiao Zhuo lowered his head and stayed silent. After a while, he climbed down from the sofa and followed Aunt Li into a room. Tang Tang had good eyesight, so she was able to notice that the little guy’s eyes were red. He looked like he was going to cry.

Bao Bao appeared to be quite upset. Was he waiting for some news about his father? Was he upset because he couldn’t wait any longer? But, military rules were strict, and they couldn’t visit their families whenever they wanted. The little mochi most likely missed his father.

Tang Tang thought as she walked back into her room to take a bath. After spending a lot of effort, she finally figured out how things worked out in the bathroom. Once she finished cleaning herself, she was both mentally and physically exhausted. However, even though she was in bed, Tang Tang couldn’t easily fall asleep. Her mind kept thinking about all sorts of things. In the end, she kept recalling the little guy’s red eyes and couldn’t sleep. The next moment she got up and quietly opened the door before limping to his room, where she carefully turned the door’s handle.

The bedside lamp was still on, and Tang Tang assumed it made it easier for the little guy when he wanted to go to the toilet at night. The little one was sleeping deeply in his bed. He was only wearing underwear, his mouth was slightly open, and his chubby legs and arms were spread out into a ‘大’ shape. His stomach moved as he breathed. Also, if one were to listen carefully, they would be able to hear some snoring.

Tang Tang unconsciously smiled. She reached out to the little mochi’s arm and gave him a little pinch. Her heart softened.

Even though she was not his real mother, she had now become his mother. She was also willing to be his mother, so she would watch after him well in the future. Otherwise, what was the reason she came here for? She always dreamt about having a family, and now she finally got one. This family was now her everything. If she didn’t have a family, she wouldn’t know what to do or which path she should take.

Tang Tang kept looking at the little one until she felt tired. Then, she kissed the little guy’s forehead and covered him with his blanket before silently returning to her room.

————————————

The next day, when Tang Tang woke up, Aunt Li was in the kitchen making breakfast. The little guy was sitting at the dining table while swinging his short legs as he waited for the food.

Tang Tang smiled as she took the initiative to wave at the little kid, “Good morning, little darling ~.”

Ji Xiao Zhuo subconsciously looked up at her. Then he pouted before he humphed and looked down as he stopped looking at her.

Tang Tang didn’t mind. She smiled, went into the kitchen, and helped to get the bowls and utensils. When Aunt Li saw Tang Tang in the kitchen, she was shocked. She wasn’t used to Tang Tang entering the kitchen to help since she never saw her take a step into the kitchen before.

Aunt Li suppressed the suspicion she had in her heart and poured a cup of milk for Ji Xiao Zhuo. Then she gave him two buns. After he started eating, she poured herself a bowl of congee and started to eat as well. She didn’t bother with Tang Tang’s portion.

Tang Tang could only pour a bowl of congee for herself before she sat down to eat with them. But, before she could eat anything, she felt their gazes locked on her, so she looked up and noticed that the little guy was staring at her with curiosity and surprise. When he saw that Tang Tang was watching him, he immediately turned around and pretended that he never looked at her.

Tang Tang could only turn to Aunt Li. She noticed that Aunt Li was also looking at her in surprise. Tang Tang was confused, so she asked, “Aunt Li, why are both of you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with me?”

Aunt Li frowned and glanced at the congee in front of Tang Tang before replying, “Madam, you never ate breakfast in the past. How come today …” Truthfully, she normally didn’t eat and just drank alcohol all day. That was the reason she was as skinny as a skeleton. Why did she suddenly decide to have breakfast today?

“Ah…” Tang Tang scratched her head. She didn’t know how to respond and just said, “I forgot. But, not eating breakfast is bad, so I will eat with Bao Bao from now on. Is that good, Bao Bao?”

“Humph!” The little guy’s eyelashes moved quickly, but it seemed that he wasn’t willing to look up at her. He just quietly expressed his displeasure.

Tang Tang chuckled. Why did she feel that the little guy liked to humph at her?. But, she had already decided to treat him well. So, she knew this couldn’t carry on. She must think of a way to shorten their distance.

After thinking for a while, Tang Tang asked, “Bao Bao, what are you going to do later? I’ll accompany you, okay?”

Xiao Zhuo paused his movement, and a second later, he nonchalantly kept chewing his food acting as if nothing had happened, and he didn’t hear what Tang Tang had said.

Tang Tang knew that the little guy would not be willing to speak to her, so she could only use the same tactic that she used on her wet nurse. With a thick skin, she said, “Good Bao Bao, cute Bao Bao, little darling, precious, tell me okay. I want to know, ah. I want to be with Bao Bao, ah.”

This method worked every time on her wet nurse, and it seemed that the trick was also effective on the little guy, because he immediately glared fiercely at her. He used his childlike voice and angrily said, “Why are you being so annoying? I’m going to be annoyed to death.”

The little guy was very cute when he was angry. Especially his childish voice, it made people melt into a puddle. Tang Tang was secretly laughing inside while she kept being thick-skinned, “Ai ya, if you tell me then I won’t annoy you anymore. I really like you. I want to be with you.”

The little one’s eyes widened. He put the spoon down, crossed his short and chubby arms, and fiercely said, “Don’t think you can trick me. I won’t believe you, and I definitely won’t forgive you!”

Tang Tang understood why the child was so angry. It was because the original didn’t treat him well at all, so it was understandable that the little one was not willing to forgive her. Also, this was something that couldn't be fixed just by a couple of words. She must treat the little one with sincerity, and one day he will forgive her.

So, Tang Tang looked at the little one with sincerity and apologized on behalf of the original owner, “Bao Bao, I’m sorry. I was wrong before. I will change now, so watch my performance, okay? You can forgive when I change for the better.”

Ji Xiao Zhuo didn’t think Tang Tang would say something like this. He almost choked, and then he looked at Tang Tang with disbelief.

Tang Tang met his gaze. Internally, she understood that she must be acting very different from the original, but it couldn’t be helped because she wanted to get along with the little one and hoped that he would like her. So, she could only change, and the first thing she needed to do was apologize sincerely. Then she would need to use actions to prove herself, even though she knew that Aunt Li and the little guy were suspicious.

After staring at each other for a while, Ji Xiao Zhuo was the first to forfeit, so he looked away. His ears were red as he silently climbed down his seat and ran towards the sofa to get his school bag before heading towards the door, “Grandma Li, I should go to school now.”

Aunt Li quickly put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands. She rushed towards him, “Don’t rush. Don’t rush. The school bus shouldn’t have arrived yet. I’ll go down with you. Don’t run and fall.”

The little one bent down to put on his shoes himself. But, something was wrong today as he had to try a couple of times before he could put them on properly. While he was doing that, Aunt Li was already waiting for him. She firmly took hold of his hand and said, “Grandma Li must accompany you down. You cannot go by yourself.”

“Okay,” the little guy listened and walked out with Aunt Li obediently. But, before the door was shut, he glanced back at Tang Tang, who was still in the living room.

Originally, Tang Tang wanted to go out with them. However, the injury on her leg made walking difficult. She wouldn’t be able to keep up with them, so she could only give up on the idea. Tang Tang limped towards the window and looked down. Soon, she saw Aunt Li and the little guy walking out from the main entrance.

Outside the main entrance, there were a couple of kids who were about the same age as the little one who was also standing there. Tang Tang assumed that they were all going to the same place to study because she has heard the little one say that he was going to school, which was probably a place to learn.

At this moment, the little guy, who always had his head down, lifted his head towards Tang Tang direction. Their gazes met each other.

Tang Tang was surprised but happy, so she instantly smiled widely and waved at him, “Bao Bao ~ Bao Bao ~.”

Xiao Zhuo was shocked and immediately turned away so that his back was facing Tang Tang.

The little one was really an awkward child, ah.

After a while, a yellow school bus arrived. The children got onto the bus one at the time before it drove away.

Tang Tang watched as the bus went further and further away. This time she didn’t feel shocked. Now she knew that the metal box was something similar to a horse carriage, which was used for traveling. But, she had to admit that this world was really awesome! Not only was there such a fast carriage for traveling, but there was also a box where she could see people talk, which was called television.

Last night Aunt Li switched on the object that was recognized as television. Many people appeared on it, and they were talking. It almost frightened Tang Tang to death! It took Tang Tang about an hour to accept that such a thing existed. After that, Tang Tang found the television to be quite interesting, but Aunt Li soon switched it off, so she couldn’t watch it anymore.

Since there wasn’t anything to do, Tang Tang decided to copy Aunt Li’s actions from last night and watch the people inside the television.

The TV was playing the same drama that Aunt Li was watching last night. Since Tang Tang also watched a bit of it last night, she found it was quite fun. But, the most important fact that she discovered was that watching television can help her to gain information about the objects in this world, which she urgently needed. So Tang Tang decided to watch the TV seriously and pick up the useful knowledge that she needed.

Aunt Li was stunned when she unexpectedly found Tang Tang sitting down and watching TV quietly. She started to believe that Tang Tang has actually lost her memory. Aunt Li has looked after Xiao Zhuo for 2 years, so she was very clear about Tang Tang’s behavior. If Tang Tang hadn’t lost her memory, she wouldn’t be so well-behaved as she was now. Also, there was no reason for her to pretend or to act like this in front of Aunt Li.

It appeared Tang Tang had really lost her memory in the car accident.

Looking at the current situation, it seemed that Tang Tang losing her memory was a good thing. At least she wouldn’t cause any ruckus or trouble. She could also speak nicely and look after her child. If Tang Tang could always be like this, then Xiao Zhuo would get to experience a mother’s love, and the Sir could have fewer worries.

But first, she must find a chance to tell the Sir about the situation.
