Qin Youbei saw Uncle Wang in the yard and immediately flashed a smile, enthusiastically calling out, "Uncle Wang, I'm back!"
Uncle Wang had a stern face. They had clearly agreed yesterday that she would come back early for the young master's birthday, yet she didn't return all night.
The young master waited for her for a long time. When he couldn't reach her by phone, he worried something might have happened, so he sent someone to her dorm to ask around, only to learn she had gone home. When they called her home, they were told she had gone to bed early.
Yesterday, the young master had been quite happy at first.
Later... his face fell, and he hid all his emotions. He only saw the young master's expressionless face, unable to perceive the true changes in the young master's heart.
After that, when he learned she had gone home to sleep, the young master nodded slightly, hesitated not a bit before standing up and heading upstairs, leaving the full table of dishes untouched.
