Lin Yusheng chuckled softly and said in a strangely coquettish tone, "No, I didn't."
But tears were already streaming down her face.
Bai Ning wanted to comfort her, but suddenly realized that other people had appeared in the corridor.
She turned around warily, her hand already gripping the gun at her waist.
But upon seeing the person who arrived, she lowered her guard and quietly left.
Lin Yusheng didn't hear a sound from the other end of the phone for a long time, so she tentatively asked, "Lu Zhengye, are you still there?"
There was still no reply.
At that moment, through her tear-blurred vision, she saw a tissue being handed to her.
Without thinking much of it, she assumed it was Bai Ning and reached out to take it.
"I am here."
The familiar voice rang out in my ear and on my phone, two seconds apart.
Lin Yusheng looked up in disbelief, and then Lu Zhengye's face became clear.
"You... how did you get here?"
Lu Zhengye reached out and wiped away her tears. "I came to discuss business and just happened to drop by to see you."
Lin Yusheng pouted, then reached out and hugged Lu Zhengye's neck tightly, burying her face in his arms and crying pitifully.
Lu Zhengye hugged her, a dull ache in his heart, "Did someone bully you?"
Lin Yusheng shook her head.
Are you tired?
Lin Yusheng's sobs subsided a little. "A little, but the main reason is that I miss you, my parents, and Lin Jingyu."
Lu Zhengye chuckled, patted her head, and said, "Here I am, aren't I?"
"Yes, thank goodness you came."
Lu Zhengye released Lin Yusheng and looked down at her ankle.
Lin Yusheng asked, "How did you know my foot hurt?"
"I've been here for a while."
Lin Yusheng pouted, "You're deliberately trying to make a fool of me."
Lu Zhengye examined it for a moment, then frowned and said, "It's a bit swollen. How did this happen?"
"There were a lot of scenes to film today, and the horse was a bit irritable, so I accidentally fell off."
Lu Zhengye squatted down in front of Lin Yusheng and said, "I'll carry you back."
"Okay." Lin Yusheng climbed onto his broad back without any hesitation.
Lu Zhengye stood up easily.
...
As soon as they returned to the hotel, Lin Yusheng was carried into the bathroom by Lu Zhengye.
She was placed on the sink, and Lu Zhengye's cool lips covered hers.
Lin Yusheng tilted her head back and endured it.
Lu Zhengye is acting very strangely today.
Lin Yusheng went along with him, as if to soothe his emotions.
In a moment of passion, Lu Zhengye asked, "Do you have any scenes to film tomorrow?"
"There's no one during the day, but there's one at night."
Only after receiving a response did Lu Zhengye take further action.

In the hotel parking lot,
Wei Qing and Bai Ning did not get out of the car immediately.
Wei Qing handed a document to Bai Ning, saying, "The boss has investigated your family's affairs thoroughly, and it is indeed as you suspected."
Bai Ning sneered. She took the document and asked, "What punishment will he receive if we prosecute?"
Wei Qing choked up.
"Will he die?" Bai Ning then asked.
Wei Qing was reluctant to tell her the truth, and hesitated for a long time before saying, "No, but the boss said he'll never be able to get out."
"That's unfair."
Wei Qing sighed and said, "These are the human rights laws of country A. It can only be said that he was born in a good country."
Bai Ning squeezed the document tightly with both hands, causing it to wrinkle.
Wei Qing saw this and said worriedly, "Both the boss and I hope you can let go of the past."
"Would Mr. Lu dare to say that to me in person?"
If Lu Zhengye could let go, he wouldn't have taken such a big risk to return to Lucheng and endured so much humiliation for so many years.
Wei Qing fell silent.
Bai Ning opened the car door and got out.
Wei Qing said, "The Ghost Guild will help you; you don't need to force yourself."
"No need, you've already helped me enough. Besides, I want to avenge this myself." A deep hatred welled up in Bai Ning's eyes.
Wei Qing hesitated, knowing that Bai Ning wouldn't listen.
A little girl grew up in a wolf's den and suffered so much, but she never gave up. What sustained her was only love or hatred.
All the people she loved most were framed and killed by so-called relatives, leaving her with only hatred in her heart.

Lu Zhengye carried Lin Yusheng to the bed and said with a stern face, "Why didn't you say you hurt your back?"
As the two were lost in their kiss, Lu Zhengye lifted her clothes and saw the bruises on her waist.
Lu Zhengye felt as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
With a stern face, he washed Lin Yusheng clean and then carried her out.
Lin Yusheng opened her big, bright eyes and said guiltily, as if she had done something wrong, "I was so happy to see you that I forgot."
Lu Zhengye chuckled, then pinched his brow helplessly.
Lin Yusheng, wrapped in a bath towel, moved over and kissed Lu Zhengye's lips, saying, "Don't be angry, it doesn't hurt anymore."
She blushed and said, "You can continue."
Lin Yusheng was worried that he would ruin his health by holding back his desires, and even more afraid that he would find another woman.
Lu Zhengye's face darkened even more. "You think I'm a beast?"
Lin Yusheng quickly shook her head.
Lu Zheng, fearing she might say something provocative again, asked, "Where's the first-aid kit?"
Lin Yusheng pointed to the cabinet, and Lu Zhengye went to get it.
Lin Yusheng obediently cooperated with him in applying the medicine.
After she finished wiping, Lin Yusheng said, "Ah Ye, you seem to have something on your mind."
It is a statement of affirmation.
Lu Zhengye paused in packing the first-aid kit.
He asked, "What? You know me very well?"
Lin Yusheng pouted, "We understand each other perfectly, isn't it only natural that I understand you? Don't you always seem to be able to read my mind?"
