Looking at the servants who came to greet her, Yun Shudai also pulled herself out of her thoughts.
"Madam, Miss Yun has arrived."
"Shushu, please sit down." Saying this, she turned to the nanny and asked her to call Jiang Yi down.
Yun Shudai didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. Jiang Yi was home today, which was good. She could explain it to him face to face: "Aunt Jiang looks great lately."
With a smile on her face, Jiang's mother took Yun Shudai's hand and said, "Shudai has such a sweet tongue. Why don't you have a meal at home today? It just so happens that Ayi is back too. I gave him a good scolding yesterday. You two can have a good talk."
Yun Shudai smiled slightly with her lips pursed, but did not answer. Jiang Yi was probably also surprised that Yun Shudai would come today.
He came downstairs, his eyes lingering in her direction for a long time.
As expected of the male protagonist in the novel, his straight nose and thin, sexy lips combined are indeed captivating, but his eyes, when looking at her, are devoid of any warmth.
"You've arrived."
"Yes, it's perfect that you're home."
Hearing the awkward conversation between the two, Jiang's mother sighed inwardly. The daughter-in-law she liked was someone her son absolutely disliked.
“Aunt Jiang, Jiang Yi, I’ve come today to return something.” Yun Shudai said, placing the engagement ring on the table. “Thank you for your kindness over the past few years, Aunt Jiang. During this time, I’ve been to many places, met many people and experienced many things. I’ve also come to understand many things. My parents came over before and we made things clear. Today, I’m returning this keepsake to its rightful owner.”
After saying that, Yun Shudai nodded slightly to Jiang's mother and Jiang Yi, then turned and silently walked out of the Jiang family home.
The two people behind her who had been stunned were taken aback. Jiang's mother was the first to come to her senses and anxiously patted her son beside her: "Hurry up and go, oh dear, how did I give birth to such a stubborn son like you? Hey, this suitcase... Shushu left it behind, right? Quickly take it to her, you two have a good chat."
Just as Yun Shudai stepped out the door, Jiang Yi called out to her from behind: "Shushu."
"Mr. Jiang, is there anything else?"
Yun Shudai's momentary politeness and aloofness made Jiang Yi a little uncomfortable. He thought she had come to ambush him today, but she did something that surprised him slightly: "You forgot your things."
Yun Shudai looked at the male protagonist in front of her, feeling a mix of emotions. When she read the novel, she thought he was perfect in every way. He was the male god in most people's hearts, and he was indeed outstanding. It was a pity that he didn't love her.
As a supporting female character in the book, she was quite self-aware for the sake of her future and did not take the box: "This contains the money you helped me pay off my breach of contract penalty."
"That money is compensation for you, you don't need to pay it back."
Yun Shudai shook her head: "Of course the money has to be returned, Mr. Jiang. I was busy getting closer to you before, but you were busy moving on. So, I may never be able to catch up with you in this lifetime. Since I can't catch up, then I won't bother you anymore."
Yun Shudai's words came from the bottom of her heart. She was not the kind of person in the book who sought out masochism, and she did not want to get entangled in this matter any further.
Although the male lead is handsome and rich, he's already taken. If they meet again, let's just be familiar strangers.
Jiang Yi frowned as he watched Yun Shudai's departing figure. Looking down at the box in his hand, he breathed a sigh of relief and silently apologized.
...
After Yun Shudai returned home, An'an and the company's makeup artist also came over.
The group picked out several outfits from Yun Shudai's dressing room.
The company's persona for Yun Shudai is sweet, pure, low-key, and reserved, without needing to be too flamboyant.
Her appearance isn't attractive if she's too flamboyant.
Yun Shudai's clothes are also very suitable.
It took three days in total. Several people spent an afternoon working on it. After the outfit was finalized, An'an and the makeup artist left.
Before leaving, An'an also told her to control her diet.
So Yun Shudai isn't planning on having dinner tonight, but a glass of milk would be fine.
When she opened the refrigerator, she found that of the three bottles of milk she had bought a few days ago, only one was left, and many other things were also missing. She knew something was wrong with the space, so she quickly went inside to check.
I haven't been here for a few days and found that besides mushrooms and wild vegetables, there was one more package.
I rummaged through the contents and found a bucket of malted milk powder, a bag of milk powder in an old-fashioned package, two bags of pastries, and a few... grain coupons from the 1970s.
Besides these, there was also a letter with He Wan's name on it, Zhang Qiaoqiao?
"Isn't this the name of a character from the historical novel that Lao He was reading? Oh dear, could it be that Lao He has transmigrated into the historical novel?"
After Yun Shudai was 90% certain of being out, she went to the supermarket the next day.
I bought some fruit, as well as some of Lao He's favorite snacks: steamed buns, porridge, and milk drinks.
He also left a note in his online space: "Is this Lao He?"
