Girl trying to play ignorant after 60+ chapters of proving to be more wily than half the court.
It isn't her being stupid, though, it's MaoMao acting stupid. Huge difference. As she said, she can be killed for knowing too much and she doesn't want to "follow [Jinshi] to the death."The writing on this story arc is so ham fisted. This last chapter provides a glimmer that she's not the idiot the previous chapters have portrayed her as.
Far as I know, she hasn't had her coming of age celebration.I KNOW she isn't THAT young, but the fact she really looks like a little girl gets me. Low key looks like hes making a move on a kid even though I know it isn't the case. I love how his pride just WONT allow for her to get away with trying to brush it off as a frog lmao. In all her genius and knowing about the princes etc how could she not put it together by now lololol
