significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is one type of hometown you can return to, where family members you miss dearly reside, and the journey back is filled with longing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other type is the hometown you can’t go back to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s only memory, but no one you wish to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of hometown stays in your mind, but you don’t feel the urge to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Shen Han, Yun’an City is the hometown he can’t return to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam Yun and Cailing are in the Yun Family of Anyang City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he has many blood relatives in Yun’an City, it’s only that thin bond of blood relation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He doesn’t want to see them, and they probably don’t want to see him either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in the luxurious carriage of the Dean, they should be reaching Yun’an City in a few more hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Traveling south from the Capital City to Yun’an City, the difference in vegetation around is quite noticeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason is the significant mountain range between the north and south of Great Wei, causing a considerable climate difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the imminent competition, Dean Tianyi felt a bit anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This time, don’t put too much pressure on yourself, winning or losing is commonplace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Ye is much older than you, which gives him a considerable advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you lose, it’s just a matter of handing over the Shen Family’s title, no big deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, your Shen family never intended to pass the title to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just see it as failing to take someone else’s thing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Tianyi’s consolation sounded somewhat odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you’re not good at comforting someone, there’s no need to force it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>People indeed have different strengths, and for Dean Tianyi, he’s more suited to telling dirty jokes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today is May 24th.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>7:00 AM.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han and Dean Tianyi finally arrived in Yun’an City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun’an City isn’t considered a big city, just slightly better than some frontier towns, and the population isn’t large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But these days Yun’an City is really bustling, and many inns can’t accommodate everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason for the popularity is, of course, the competition between Shen Han and Shen Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Yun’an City to produce two prodigies at once, it’s earned the reputation of a land of talents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Ye has been a renowned prodigy for years, and Shen Han also performed exceptionally well in the Ten Nations Grand Competition, even having his portrait prominently displayed in the Celestial Universe Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The duel between these two outstanding young men makes for quite a spectacle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from just watching the excitement, many come to observe the competition, hoping to learn something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The carriage stopped at the gate of Yun’an City, and Shen Han, together with Dean Tianyi, got off the carriage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two walked towards Shen Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Shen Han had a faint smile on his face as he explained to Dean Tianyi his past experiences in Yun’an City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With little money, he could only go to the market to buy some naan bread to stave off hunger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Tianyi had never heard of naan bread before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having some time, he invited Shen Han to go and have a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking into the market, Shen Han greeted familiar stall owners proactively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But upon hearing his voice, these stall owners frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked at Shen Han a few more times before suddenly realizing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is Shen Han!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Shen Han became famous, people often mentioned his name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some stall owners even used his fame to boast when selling things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying Shen Han bought many things from them before attaining his current achievements, thus flattering themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talking about him often, they hadn’t expected they couldn’t recognize him when they saw him in person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, there was another reason people didn’t realize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who would have thought that Shen Han, now of such status, would actively greet small stall vendors like them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing the voice, they instinctively didn’t think of Shen Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reaching the naan stall, and seeing such a large piece of bread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Tianyi didn’t expect it would only cost a few coins to buy several pieces...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking the naan bread Shen Han handed over, Dean Tianyi took a bite, and to maintain his image in front of the young ones, he struggled to swallow it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The taste wasn’t exactly bad because the naan bread actually had no taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you eat this every day when you were at Shen Mansion?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Dean Tianyi’s question, Shen Han smiled and shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Life wasn’t that bad, not every meal was naan bread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Occasionally, Madam Yun would send me some dishes, which was a rare treat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Old Dowager always liked to preach self-reliance, not allowing Madam Yun to send meals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I want to practice and study, I could only fill my stomach with these naan breads.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Shen Han’s words, Dean Tianyi’s eyes seemed to flash sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Shen family fell to this state truly of their own doing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After wandering around the market for a while, checking the time, the two then headed to Shen Mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family performance assessment is an internal competition within the Shen Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This year is a special occasion, so more people are sure to come to watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as Shen Han and Dean Tianyi arrived at the mansion’s gate, they were still a bit surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There seemed to be too many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Madam He stood at the gate, exchanging polite words with the dignitaries as they arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when she saw Shen Han and Dean Tianyi, her expression abruptly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She turned her face away directly, completely ignoring Shen Han and Dean Tianyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han remained indifferent, greeting when necessary, it’s up to others to respond or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When other dignitaries arrived, Madam He would arrange a servant to guide them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Shen Han and Dean Tianyi could only find their own way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Han didn’t mind, he was familiar with Shen Mansion, it’s not that big a place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were only a couple of locations suitable for the family performance assessment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as they walked a short distance, a servant from the mansion carefully approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Master Han, don’t mind, Madam He didn’t allow us to guide you, that’s why no one came...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that she can’t see, I’ll lead you and this esteemed guest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, the servant bowed and walked ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While leading the way, he explained the Shen Family’s changes over the past year to Shen Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Occasionally mentioning unsuitable topics, he would cautiously move closer to Shen Han and lower his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Master Han, you have no idea, every time the mansion hears of your achievements, the Patriarch, Old Dowager, and the two madams are furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can’t vent their anger on you, Young Master Han, so they can only scold the other masters and misses, and occasionally we servants also suffer...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing the servant’s words, Shen Han couldn’t help but smile, asking, \"But you still came to guide us, wouldn’t you face more scolding if caught?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet this servant seemed to think things through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Today, the master families are busy and have no time to wander around. We servants must also learn to judge the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The future master of the Shen Family isn’t certain yet ~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Young Master Shen Han wasn’t well taken care of, so now I must curry favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once you, Young Master Han, inherit the title and become Patriarch Shen, we won’t have such proximity anymore ~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words were indeed spoken candidly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1258,"2026-05-29T03:40:11.654Z","2026-06-01T04:29:06.436Z",1,"novelbin.me","7f4815f505a12e6a7d4f5392f662c3256f65259496f7e467b58cde211a81d3cf","engagement-canceled-i-can-extract-prefixes-chapter-367","engagement-canceled-i-can-extract-prefixes-chapter-365",546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fengagement-canceled-i-can-extract-prefixes-cover.jpg"]
