NOVPUBAfter speaking, Shen Roujia walked towards Tu Lie.
“Big Brother, I really can’t stand your tribe’s sense of beauty with all those beards...”
Tu Lie had shaved his beard after visiting the Capital, trying to conform to Shen Roujia’s aesthetic preferences. But truthfully, Shen Roujia felt that most of their looks were hidden beneath those thick beards.
Although Shen Roujia thought this, she didn’t say it aloud.
She suddenly found herself at a loss for words, feeling a bit awkward.
In fact, at that moment, Shen Roujia wanted to give herself some space, hoping to avoid embarrassing herself by participating in the hand-holding dances.
As she considered this, she realized she might be right.
Because now, Tu Lie had passed Shen Roujia off to one of his good brothers—another young man with a thick beard.
The two of them exchanged an awkward glance, while Tu Lie stealthily slipped away.
Shen Roujia watched from a distance as Tu Lie disappeared into the crowd, deeply suspicious that he might be secretly seeing a girl without telling anyone.
With this thought, Shen Roujia rubbed her hands together and asked, somewhat skeptically, “Brother, I think I’d like to head back. You should stay and enjoy yourself.”
The bearded man seemed momentarily disappointed.
Could he have thought Tu Lie was setting Shen Roujia up with him?
Shen Roujia really didn’t want to explain further.
Without waiting for his response, and feeling a bit annoyed, she decided to find her big brother and give him a piece of her mind.
How could he just leave his sister like that? What was going on? Men!
Shen Roujia gazed off towards the nearby bushes, hesitating whether to walk over and demand an explanation from Tu Lie.
As she thought about it, she couldn’t help but feel like she was being a bit of a third wheel.
