Shu Wen hadnât noticed his abnormality. Seeing him coming over, she said, "My sister and the others are leaving tomorrow. Have lunch here."
Shu Wen inviting him for dinner symbolized a family reunion feast!
Upon hearing this, Qin Qiongâs eyes lit up. How could he refuse this? Even if his head fell off, heâd stay.
He was so happy that he forgot his face was full of bumps and immediately turned with a smile, replying, "Sure, sure..."
In high spirits, he suddenly met Shu Wen and Shu Jiaoâs shocked gaze and was immediately speechless.
Only then did he realize that he was almost disfigured at the moment. He quickly panicked and covered his head with his arm.
After coming to senses, Shu Wen quickly walked over, pulled down his arm that was covering his face, glared at his bumpy face, and said in a not-so-nice tone, "Whatâs wrong with your face?"
"Well, well...just last night while sleeping, I donât know why suddenly a lot of mosquitoes, got bitten..." Qin Qiong answered vaguely, not daring to admit he was bitten hiding in the dark trying to cover Jiang Bin with a burlap sack.
Though he was curious, werenât Ruan Jianguo and Shu Lang bitten?
Shu Wen looked at his evasive manner and knew he wasnât being truthful. Sarcastically, she said, "Only you the mosquitoes targeted? Why such deep hatred for you? Tell me, Iâd love to hear."
"Whether targeted one person is still unsure..." He still needed to see if Ruan Jianguo and Shu Lang had bumps all over their faces.
Qin Qiong mumbled softly, so softly that Shu Wen didnât hear clearly. Afraid Shu Wen might continue asking, revealing yesterdayâs ordeal, he quickly pointed to the things he brought along and said to Ruan Jiaojiao, "Didnât Jiaojiao say yesterday she wanted candies? Here, little uncle brought everything for you, see if itâs enough, if not, weâll buy more."
While saying this, he smiled at Ruan Jiaojiao with a trademark roguish grin, acting very generously.
Ruan Jiaojiao always thought his smile was particularly attractive and charming, but nowâ
Looking at Qin Qiongâs face full of bumps, one eye swollen, drooping demeanor, Ruan Jiaojiao shivered, too frightening, too eye-burning!
Shu Jiao thought she was cold and hugged her tightly, worriedly asking, "Still cold? Want a blanket?"
Already contemplating hand-sewing clothes for her, considering itâs already October, the weather only gets cooler, genuinely worried she might not bear it.
Ruan Jiaojiao shook her head, embarrassed to admit being uglified by her newly appointed little uncle.
Xiu Xi stood beside, looking thoughtfully at Qin Qiong. Not knowing why, he touched his own smooth face, felt relieved with no bumps, and proudly straightened his chest, smiling at Ruan Jiaojiao.
Ruan Jiaojiao looked at him, thinking indeed her Brother Xiu looked the best, needed to look more to cleanse her eyes!
Even Shu Wen was quite shocked by Qin Qiongâs smile, not the type to mince words, she straightforwardly said, "Stop smiling, it looks very ugly."
"!!!" Qin Qiong stared wide-eyed in shock.
Ugly? Very ugly?
Qin Qiongâs heart shattered, yet he dared not say anything, only looking at her pitifully with extremely resentful eyes.
