Zhou Rong followed Ren Yaoying's gaze and looked across, then screamed in fright.
At this time, discussions were heard all around, and the subject of the discussion was one of the young men who walked out of the restaurant opposite.
The young man had an upright figure and was dressed in exquisite attire. From behind, anyone would mistake him for a handsome young man. Unfortunately, his face was too frightening. Half his face was extremely pale, with a faint hint of delicate features visible. The other half was severely burned, as if the outer layer of skin had been melted and wrinkled, revealing the flesh beneath. His eye on the injured side was especially noticeable, a pale, bluish-gray color, like the eye of a boiled fish.
When Ren Yaoying saw the wound on the boy's face, she couldn't help but think of the scar on her aunt's face, so she turned pale and didn't dare to look at him a second time.
But it wasn't just Ren Yaoying. Anyone who had seen that boy's face didn't dare to look at it a second time. Even several teenagers of the same age who were traveling with that boy were unwilling to keep their eyes on his face, and their eyes were wandering even when they were talking to him.
But the young man seemed to have no idea how terrifying his face was. Instead of trying to cover it up, he would smile at the person when he saw the disgust and fear in the other person's eyes. This smile would often scare people to death.
He seemed to have heard Zhou Rong's exclamation, looked over here, and then curled the corners of his mouth at Zhou Rong, scaring Zhou Rong so much that she pulled Ren Yaoying back a step. He then laughed as if he had seen something interesting.
Ren Yaohua was about to get on the bus, but was now attracted by the noise. She turned her head to look at the young man and happened to meet the young man's playful gaze as he glanced at her.
Ren Yaohua was also frightened by the boy's face, but she was not a timid woman who liked to make a fuss. Her gaze only paused for a moment before turning away. Then, without even pausing, she lifted the curtain and got into the carriage, as if she was looking at a normal person.
The young man was stunned when he saw the lowered carriage curtain, and then a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.
A young man walking beside the boy coughed lightly and whispered, "Brother Zeng, don't worry about them, they are just..."
Zeng Kui put his hand on the man's shoulder and said in an intimate yet curious tone, "Just what? They were just scared by the wound on my face?"
The young man glanced at the hand on his shoulder and shifted it uncomfortably, but he was well-mannered and resisted the urge to fling his hand away. "Well, if you're bothered by their gazes, I'll get you a mask to cover your face next time you go out. There's a jade shop in Yunyang City with a skilled jade craftsman. I'll get you a custom-made white jade mask. It'll perfectly...suit your temperament."
