At noon, in front of a house in Baijia Town.
Banquet tables filled the house's inner and outer courtyards, and scraps of firecrackers still littered the ground in a festive sea of red.
Carrying a suitcase, Jun Wangchen walked over with Shen Luoying. They greeted quite a few villagers along the way, then entered the house with smiles.
Jun Wangchen's eldest uncle was a simple-looking, somewhat guileless middle-aged man. Since it was his birthday, he had changed into a more formal outfit. Every so often, he gave instructions to the people cooking in the house, an irrepressible smile on his face.
When Jun Wangchen and Shen Luoying entered, Shen Xin'an paused. Once he recognized the person beside Shen Luoying, he immediately came over with a smile. "Haha! I didn't expect our college student to come home today! I haven't seen you for a semester, and you've gotten so much more handsome!"
"Uncle, you tease me every time I come back." Jun Wangchen rubbed his head sheepishly, looking a little embarrassed.
Ah, I never expected the good looks I'd hidden for so many years to be exposed by my uncle the moment I showed my face.
Alas!
How tragic!
Actually, I've tried sleeping with my face covered, but my own handsomeness still woke me up. Ah, life is hard, and my heart is weary. On every sleepless night, I've resisted the urge to become a kept man, over and over again.
Some people really ought to think carefully before getting close to me. Apart from my good looks, I have absolutely nothing.
No, I need to work hard, or people will say I have nothing going for me except a pretty face!
