Old Man Mo laughed at his
granddaughter trying to read him,
"Little girl, don't even try it. You'll
never be able to guess what the noble
me is thinking"

Rose Han: "...."

She could already guess what he was
thinking.

His expression said it all, but since she was a kind person, she'll not
ruin his dignity.

Rose Han nod her head, "Mm. No one
can ever read you."

Hearing this, Old Man Mo stuck his chest out and his chin raised high.

Rosé Han press her lips together and smile.

"Young Miss, where should we put all
of these?"

Both Rose Han and old man Mo turned to Housekeeper Yu.

Housekeeper Yu and a young soldier
around twenties held the shopping
bags from Rose Han's car.

Well, more like the young soldier.

"Set it down there."

Rose Han stood from her seat and pointed to the empty sofa.

Housekeeper Yu and the young soldier did what Rose Han asked.

Once everything was set down,
Housekeeper Yu dismisses the young soldier.

Just when the young soldier was
about to turn and leave, Rose Han was
reminded of something.

She calls out to the young soldier. "Ah, I just remember something. Hold on."

He turned around hesitantly and point a finger at himself, "Miss... y-you mean m-me?"

"Mm"

Rose Han at this moment was checking inside each bag, trying to find something.

The young soldier felt as if his soul had left his body.

Sweat starting to form on his smooth forehead.

He gulped and thought, 'Oh god! I didn't take anything! I swear
on my innocent life that I didn't steal
anything from the Miss!'

Old Man Mo sat quietly and his lip curl upwards as he observe the situation.

Housekeeper Yu was just as confused
as the young soldier.

He wanted to say something but he was only a housekeeper, so he decided to keep quiet.

Seeing Rose Han still rummaging
through the bags, the young soldier became even more nervous.

His lips tremble in fear.

He didn't know what was going on. "M-miss, I... t-this one didn't t-take a-anything"

Rose Han glance at the boy
indifferently, then she glance back to
the bags.

While Rosé Han continued to find what she was looking for, everyone else, besides Old man Mo, stood nervously.

Not just for the young soldier but for themselves as well.

After who knows how long, Rose Han's eyes lit up and a smile appear across her face.

She turn and face the young soldier.

Being looked at attentively, out of habit, the young soldier straighten his posture and takes one small step forward with both his hands at his side.

Looking like the real soldier he is.

Rose Han arch a brow at the boy.

She wanted to laugh, but seeing how he turned so seriously, she decided to play along.
