Her eyes flickered with curiosity, almost outright asking, "Who were you with? Did you get a boyfriend?"
Shen Ruo's expression became uneasy for a moment, then she smiled and said, "Mom, I got drunk last night and stayed at a colleague's place. I forgot to call you."
"Really? Was it a male or female colleague?"
"Of course, a female one."
Mom Shen looked a bit disappointed, "Xiaoruo, you're already twenty-four, it's time to find a boyfriend. If you have someone in mind, bring him home for Mom to see. I'll help you check him out."
"Mom, if I find someone, I will definitely bring him to meet you. I'm a bit tired now, I'm going to rest."
"Really? You must remember, if you find someone, bring him to show Mom, okay?"
"I know." Shen Ruo ran upstairs as if fleeing for her life, not wanting Mom Shen to deduce anything.
The truth is, over all these years, she had never liked any man. If she had to name one, that would be Shen Yang, her brother, who was only a year younger than her.
