Chapter 635 I Want to Hug Her
Shu Yu still suggested going home before 11 PM. This time, she wasn't just thinking of Fang Xiyue; she wanted to go back because Meng Yunzheng was coming over.
Ma Lu and the others decided to take another look, and the two groups parted ways.
Once they reached the foot of the mountain, Shu Yu asked Fang Xiyue about her plans.
The latter pursed her lips and said, "My parents don't agree." After all, it was too dangerous. Mr. and Mrs. Fang only had one daughter, and there was no need for her to take such a risk.
However, Fang Xiyue felt that if she didn't go, then Shu Yu would be the only girl left.
Ma Lu and the others were all men, which ultimately made things inconvenient for them.
Moreover, Fang Xiyue herself also wanted that reward; her family needed the money.
She paused, then said to Shu Yu, "I will continue to persuade them. Give me one more day."
Shu Yu waved her hand, "Don't push yourself. Hunting tigers is indeed very dangerous. Your parents are worried about you."
"I know."
As they talked, the two carried their prey to the manor.
Shu Yu went straight home, and sure enough, Meng Yunzheng was already waiting for her there.
He looked travel-worn, and it was unclear where he had come from.
Shu Yu hadn't seen him for several days, and she wondered if it was just her imagination, but he seemed to have lost weight.
Seeing her staring at him, Meng Yunzheng couldn't help but touch his face and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Shu Yu shook her head. "No, I just feel like I've lost weight. Have you been working very hard these past few days?"
Meng Yunzheng felt a sudden surge of warmth in his heart, and his fingers twitched.
If it weren't for the inconvenient location and time, the thing he would most like to do right now is to go up and hug her.
He took a deep breath and smiled, "It's okay, I'm fine."
The old lady's figure flashed past the door. Meng Yunzheng chuckled, sat down opposite her, and took a sip of water to calm the irritation in his heart.
"I went to see the abbot of Dongqing Temple these past two days."
Upon hearing the mention of her master, Shu Yu leaned forward slightly. "A lead?"
"Some people said she had appeared in the fifth county of the Republic of China, but by the time I got there, she was already gone. Now, I don't know where she is again. But I'm sure she's in Linzhang Prefecture."
Shu Yu pondered for a moment; her master was truly elusive, appearing and disappearing like a dragon.
"Do you think it's possible that she came to Heichang County?"
"Hmm?" Meng Yunzheng raised an eyebrow.
Shu Yu tapped her fingers. "You saw it back then too. The note she left me said that she would come to the Southwest first to help me take care of things, right?"
In the end, all the arrangements were in vain. Meng Yunzheng had taken care of everything, and when she arrived in Zhengdao Village, it was her family who took care of her.
Where is the abbot of Dongqing Temple? They actually have to go through all that trouble to find him.
Shu Yu felt that she had been fooled by her again.
"Think about it, I'm here. Since my master said he came to the Southwest for my sake, he'll eventually come looking for me, right? If you're not in a hurry, why don't we just wait for him to come to us?"
Meng Yunzheng rubbed his temples. It was because he was anxious that he went out to look for someone at this critical moment.
However, Shu Yu is right. Even if they go to look for it, they might not find it. They might as well just wait here.
Having determined the direction, Meng Yunzheng stopped worrying.
He took out a crossbow from behind his back. "This is what you asked me to make. It's finished. It fits perfectly on your wrist. Once it's covered by your clothes, you won't be able to tell. But it will affect your movement a little. You'll have to get used to it."
