"How do you plan to spend the New Year?" Yanzhu took a bite of a water lotus fruit and turned to look at Sheng Xiuhan, acting as natural as could be. As for Yaojiu, she decided to set him aside for now; he needed time to himself to process things and think it over. "And you? Don't you want to go back?"
Sheng Xiuhan rested his hands on his knees, his sword-like brows and star-bright eyes fixed ahead. Yanzhu followed his gaze. "No one doesn't want to go home, unless they have no home to return to. As for me, I suppose I'm fine either way."
The Sheng Family... they surely didn't want him back. His return would only bring trouble and make him a target for everyone. There were far too many eyes fixed on him, on the Sheng Family, and on the Wan Family. His return would not bring glory; it would only bring the jealousy and malice of the world. Even if he didn't want to compete, he would inevitably be drawn into the fray.
