The Only Standard to Test Whether He Is a Handsome Guy

The driver’s door opened, and Han Chen stepped out of the car.

He wore a loose black T-shirt and casual black cropped pants. His hair was shaved very short, almost as thick as a finger, with smooth contours and no sharp angles.

His temples were shaved clean, giving him a standard crew cut.

Zhou Mo was taken aback, and her phone almost slipped from her hand. She couldn’t immediately process Han Chen’s new appearance.

“Why are you running away?” Han Chen closed the car door.

“What do you want with me?” Zhou Mo composed herself, putting on a cold face. She wasn’t in a good mood, but she couldn’t help but be slightly attracted by Han Chen’s new look.

She had to admit that Han Chen, dressed all in black with a casual style, combined with his thick eyebrows and starry eyes, clean-cut crew cut, and a touch of maturity, exuded a charm of a mature man.

Han Chen wore a faint smile of satisfaction. “I want to ask you a question.”

“What?” Zhou Mo turned her face away, maintaining her cold attitude.

“Do I look good?”

Zhou Mo’s face was filled with shock, as if she misheard. “What did you say?”

“I asked if I looked good,” Han Chen repeated.

Zhou Mo rolled her eyes at Han Chen. “Are you bored or something?”

“Why? Are you afraid to answer?”

“Are you crazy?” Zhou Mo shot him a disdainful look and turned to walk into the residential area.

Han Chen locked the car and followed her. Zhou Mo noticed and suddenly stopped. “Why are you following me?”

“Let’s reconcile,” Han Chen suddenly became serious.

“Why should we?” Zhou Mo didn’t have a good temper.

“Even friends can resolve conflicts and shake hands. Can’t you give me a chance?”

“We’re not friends.” Zhou Mo wasn’t buying Han Chen’s act.

Han Chen didn’t expect Zhou Mo to be so unyielding. His expression turned serious. “I came here personally to find you. What else do you want from me?”

“It’s not like I asked you to come find me. Your legs are attached to your body. Did I use a remote control to make you come here?”

Han Chen fell silent.

After a while, Han Chen restrained his serious and slightly angry emotions. “I got a haircut, didn’t you notice?”

“I’m not blind,” Zhou Mo replied, casting a glance at Han Chen’s hairstyle. “Why just shave it even shorter? That way, you can be a monk.”

“Can’t you stop speaking so harshly?”

“No!” Zhou Mo glared at him. “If your mouth is too slow to come up with a comeback, it’s your lack of talent. Don’t blame me for speaking harshly.”

Han Chen fell into complete silence, his eyes filled with resentment as he swept coldly across Zhou Mo’s fair face. He turned around and got back into his car, driving away.

Zhou Mo watched the blue and black BMW disappear and let out a cold hum.

Han Chen couldn’t look down on her for having gone through several relationships and having had multiple boyfriends. Even if she had, so what? She wouldn’t go back to Han Chen.

After venting at Han Chen outside the gate of the residential area, Zhou Mo felt a sense of relief, a feeling of avenging a great grievance.

It wasn’t just her self-perception. It was a woman’s natural intuition. She could sense that Han Chen hadn’t let go of her completely and still had her in his heart to some extent.

But Zhou Mo was always cold-hearted. Apart from Han Chen, she had three boyfriends. Regardless of the reasons for their breakups, so far, not a single one could turn her back.

When Zhou Mo told Shen Pan about this over the phone, Shen Pan praised her. “You are so carefree.”

“Breaking up is breaking up. Breaking up means it’s not suitable. If it’s not suitable, then there’s no need to continue the relationship. Dragging it on is just a waste of time and energy. Why bother?”

Shen Pan caught on to something and asked, “You deleted the contact information of your first three ex-boyfriends, right? How come you can still have contact with Han Chen?”

“He’s my neighbor, and... he was the one who approached me first. Besides, what happened between us was just a foolish teenage romance. How many people do you know who was seventeen or eighteen years old and actually ended up getting married? And we were separated for more than ten years.”

After saying that, Zhou Mo immediately regretted it.

She had forgotten that she and Han Chen were already married. This marriage couldn’t be undone. They were a disguised example of “from school uniforms to wedding gowns“...

Ptui, ptui, ptui.

“He approached you, and you didn’t refuse him, did you? You even kept his contact information. It shows that he’s different from your first three ex-boyfriends, after all, he was your puppy love,” Shen Pan said.

Zhou Mo chuckled in exasperation. “To be frank, I never really considered him my ex. Back when we were in school, we dated like we were playing house. It doesn’t count now that I look back on it. To me, he doesn’t feel like an ex-boyfriend at all, more like... a high school classmate with a closer relationship.”

“All right, all right. You can think whatever you want,” Shen Pan said, giving up. “I’ve only been in one relationship, so I can’t keep up with your experienced thinking.”

“Hey, you little brat, what are you talking about? Who’s experienced?” Zhou Mo retorted.

“Sister, you’ve had four relationships. In the entire country, you can beat 99% of the girls,” Shen Pan said.

“...”

“In two more years, you’ll be thirty. Settle down quickly and don’t be stubborn. This Han Chen is a doctor, and he has a good job. Whether he’s an ex or not, if you don’t think there’s any major issue, you should consider it,” Shen Pan patiently advised.

“No, he has a major issue.”

Shen Pan was puzzled. “What major issue?”

“He’s abnormal,” Zhou Mo thought about what happened today.

“He came to see me out of the blue with a completely different appearance. He shaved his head into a crew cut, dressed all in black, and made himself look like a young man. Then he asked me if he looked good. Don’t you think that’s abnormal?”

“Did you say something provocative to him? Like... praising one of your ex-boyfriends for looking good in front of him?” Shen Pan asked.

“I don’t have anyone like that. None of those three ex-boyfriends are worth showing off in front of anyone.”

“Um...” Shen Pan pondered for a moment. “Think about it again.”

“I can’t think of anything.” Zhou Mo couldn’t be bothered to think anymore.

Shen Pan coughed lightly, trying to get her attention. “Have you ever heard the saying that a crew cut is the only standard to judge a handsome guy?”

Zhou Mo instantly understood Shen Pan’s meaning. “Are you saying that he intentionally got a crew-cut hairstyle to prove that he’s handsome?”

“Why not?”

“He can be handsome all he wants, but what does it have to do with me?”

“He wants to prove to you that he’s handsome,” Shen Pan emphasized the “you” and then sighed helplessly. “That’s why I asked if you crossed over someone else’s territory in front of him.”

Zhou Mo furrowed her brows and thought carefully. “We did argue about appearance before. But... Han Chen isn’t the type of person to do something like this. It’s too indirect.”

Shen Pan covered her lips and chuckled. “This man is quite cunning, but also very childish. Your life is going to be very interesting.”

“...”

“All right, let’s stop talking. I have to submit my manuscript this month, and the editor is going crazy. However, your story just gave me some inspiration. I’ll create a side character with Han Chen’s personality. It will surely be popular.”

“Are you sure there’s a market for a character like Han Chen? Can your cartoon sell?” Zhou Mo asked.

Shen Pan thought for a moment. “I’m not sure. But this character, who crazily dances around your sensitive points, is quite fancy.”
