Chong Cang seemed to see through my confusion and said indifferently, "Your Highness is already three thousand years old?"
It was then that I realized Mo Han was already an adult.
After the coming-of-age ceremony, he will be formally appointed as the crown prince.
If it weren't for waiting for me to come of age, I would already be the Crown Prince of the Celestial Clan by now.
Now that I am an adult, does my grandfather intend to formally appoint Mo Han as the crown prince after this trial of the gods?
Doesn't that mean I'm about to officially marry Mo Han? My carefree days as a spoiled brat are numbered.
This is really not good news. I just ascended to the rank of High God, and before I even had a chance to enjoy being a God-King, I'm going to become Mo Han's Crown Princess. How pitiful!
Just as I was worrying about how to be a gentle, kind, respectful, frugal, and modest Crown Princess in the future, a celestial attendant from Shenxiao Palace came to deliver an imperial decree, saying that my maternal grandfather wanted to see me. I had no choice but to tidy myself up casually and obediently follow Chongcang to Shenxiao Palace.
Before he even arrived, I could see Mo Han scolding someone from afar. I greeted him, but he ignored me. His face, which had been as still as a pool of water, rippled slightly as if a pebble had been thrown in.
Based on my years of experience reading storybooks, his reaction means he's fallen for me. He's really head over heels in love with me. That's why he misses me so much after just a short time apart. He's even too shy to talk to me when we meet. It's all my fault, I'm just too good-looking.
Chongcang pulled me into the inner hall, where a fairy attendant was showing my grandfather a portrait of a beautiful woman dressed as a bride.
"If Little Divine Phoenix Chao greets the Divine Firmament Heavenly Venerable, may the Heavenly Venerable be blessed with ten thousand blessings and peace."
The first time I bowed to my grandfather as a deity felt very different from before; it was quite novel.
If it weren't for the many goddesses and celestial attendants in the Shenxiao Palace, I would have loved to drag my grandfather along to practice a few more times and experience being a god.
"Xiao Ruo is here! Come and see her, do you like her?"
After the ceremony, my grandfather beckoned me over to admire the painting of the beautiful woman together.
I'm a little embarrassed, although I really enjoy looking at beautiful women, both men and women, and I have privately collected quite a few pictures of famous beauties.
But this is the first time I've enjoyed it with others, especially with my maternal grandfather.
I don't know whether to say I like it or not.
My grandfather is getting more and more confused as he gets older. How could he possibly tell me, the future granddaughter-in-law, about such a thing in front of so many people?
"What's wrong? Don't you like it? Then let's flip to the next one. Our Xiaoruo is so pretty, she'll definitely look good in anything."
My grandfather seemed to sense my embarrassment and offered words of comfort.
However, it seems that the focus of his words was on the clothes; perhaps I misunderstood.
"Is Grandpa going to make me a new dress?"
I suddenly remembered that besides being the Heavenly Emperor, my grandfather was also a crazy needlework enthusiast, and even the gods of the Heavenly Clan had worn clothes made by him.
Perhaps it was a sudden whim today, but she decided to make me a new outfit.
Thinking about it this way, I felt much more relaxed and said a few words in agreement with him.
They started carefully selecting styles.
But after looking around, all the clothes seemed to be red and fancy, which looked too formal. In the end, I still couldn't find a style that suited me.
Why did my grandfather only make me red clothes, and not any other colors?
I really didn't understand why everyone was wearing red, so I asked my grandfather.
Only then did I realize that my grandfather had summoned me here to help me choose my wedding dress.
No wonder Mo Han acted strangely when he saw me today; it wasn't that he missed me, but rather that he was embarrassed.
