Then, not long after returning to this universe.
He received some news.
"What? Jujun is getting engaged?"
Wang Jujun, Wang Dong's half-brother, the "little pretty boy" in his eyes.
He was already preparing to get engaged!
"Why are you so surprised that Jujun is getting engaged, Big Brother?"
Wang Guannan asked in confusion.
"He's already an adult."
Wang Dong blinked.
Wang Guannan standing before him had grown into a graceful young woman, no longer anything like the "Salty Fish Girl" she had once been.
After his initial surprise at the change.
A wave of emotion rose in him, impossible to suppress.
That was right. Why shouldn't Wang Jujun get engaged?
It was now Star Calendar 10115.
When he had been reborn, it had been Star Calendar 10103.
A full twelve years had passed!
The girl of those days had long since grown up.
How could the little pretty boy of those days still be a pretty boy?
"Nothing. Jujun went to the New Song Kingdom to study a couple of years ago, and I hadn't seen him for a while.
Getting this news so suddenly was bound to surprise me."
Wang Dong shook his head with a wry smile.
He had accepted the fact that he was now over thirty and had entered middle age.
"By the way, who's he marrying?"
His surprise faded, and curiosity took over.
Wang Dong asked eagerly.
"She's a princess from a branch of the New Song Kingdom's royal family.
I hear she's quite favored within the royal family.
Though she comes from a branch, she's still over a hundred places in the line of succession."
Wang Guannan smiled.
Clearly, she was delighted that Wang Jujun had won the favor of a princess of the New Song Kingdom.
"That kid's got some skill."
Wang Dong
