Chapter 193 Because I Missed You
"Hehe, hehehe."
Just as Yun Shu was wondering where Jiang Zhiyang had gone, she heard a wild, panting sound coming from the bushes outside the door.
When Yun Shu came outside, she saw a pair of scarlet eyes hidden in the dark grass.
The next second, a dark shadow pounced on her from the bushes, and a strong smell of blood mixed with the stench of rotting corpses hit her.
Yun Shu acted swiftly, channeling her spiritual energy into the peach wood sword. With a single stroke, she severed the shadowy figure's head.
The shadowy figure's head fell to the ground, and his body collapsed as well. Only then did Yun Shu realize that the rotting face looked somewhat familiar.
She looked at the thing's body again; one of its legs was broken, and it was covered in blood.
"Jiang Zhiyang?"
Yun Shu looked at the corpse on the ground with a strange expression, and said thoughtfully, "It seems that he died from excessive blood loss, and then the corpse turned into a zombie."
However, under normal circumstances, a corpse would not turn into a zombie so quickly, unless Jiang Zhiyang was fed something special by that master.
"It's really like trying to get something from a tiger; they don't even realize they've been tricked."
Yun Shu gave a sarcastic smile, then flicked her fingers and threw a fireball onto Jiang Zhiyang's corpse, burning it completely without leaving any trace.
After dealing with this, Yun Shu went into the courtyard to deactivate the formation and then went upstairs to sleep.
Before she went upstairs, she found You Shuqing still waiting in the living room, so she called her to come up with her.
You Shuqing was finally relieved to see that she had returned safely.
Because Yun Shu had set up an array on this side of the house, which also had the function of isolating noise, the people upstairs didn't hear a thing and rested peacefully all night.
When they woke up the next day and saw the broken door, they belatedly realized what had happened.
However, Yun Shu and You Shuqing did not tell them the specifics, lest they scare them and make them afraid to continue working here.
With these issues resolved, Yun Shu's subsequent filming work proceeded smoothly.
After filming for about three days, they prepared to head back to the capital.
The day before Yun Shu was to return to the capital, she received a message from Lu Shijing asking why she hadn't come back yet.
Because of an unexpected incident, Yun Shu delayed her return by a day. When Lu Shijing asked about it, she gave him a brief explanation.
Lu Shijing: Will the one-day delay affect your reporting to the film set?
Yun Shu: Probably not.
Yun Shu's schedule is quite tight; she will be joining a film crew as soon as she finishes her magazine shoot.
According to the original plan, she would have had one day to rest between these two things. Now that she's postponed her return by a day, she won't have any time to rest and will probably have to rush to the film set as soon as she gets off the plane.
Lu Shijing: Is today's filming over?
Yun Shu: My work is finished, but the others are still busy and won't be able to fly back until tomorrow.
Lu Shijing: I've come to pick you up.
Yun Shu: Huh?
Yun Shu initially wanted to refuse, since she was out of town, not in the capital, but then Lu Shijing's message came through again.
Lu Shijing: I have some free time today, and I'm free anyway.
Is it true or false?
Yun Shu was a little incredulous.
Lu Shijing is, after all, the president of Jingchuan Entertainment, and he is currently gradually taking over the affairs of the Lu Group. She remembers that he is often so busy that he doesn't even have time to eat dinner.
Yun Shu was right; Lu Shijing was so busy today that he didn't even have dinner.
But after sending a message to Yun Shu, he didn't want to go to dinner. He grabbed his trench coat and headed straight out of the company, instructing his assistant to prepare a private jet.
More than four hours later, Yun Shu met Lu Shijing in the lobby of a hotel near the airport.
Yun Shu watched as the tall, slender man walked towards her. He looked travel-worn, and his handsome face showed signs of fatigue, clearly indicating that he had been working overtime again today. Her expression was somewhat complicated.
When Lu Shijing came to her, she said bluntly, "You're not free today, you've been working overtime."
"Um."
Lu Shijing lowered his head, his dark eyes fixed on her, and readily admitted it.
Yun Shu frowned and said, "Then why did you come to pick me up? You might as well stay home and rest. I don't need a little more time. I'm not that tired. I can go straight to the film set after I get off the plane tomorrow."
Lu Shijing said, "Because I miss you."
