Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 635: Chapter 635: Want to Hug Her Chapter 635: Chapter 635: Want to Hug Her Shu Yu had brought up going home since 1 p.m., and this time it wasn’t just for Fang Xiyue’s sake. She wanted to go back because Meng Yunzheng was coming over.

Ma Lu and the others planned to stay and look around some more, so the two groups went their separate ways.

At the foot of the mountain, Shu Yu finally asked about Fang Xiyue’s plans.

Lips pursed, the latter said, “My parents don’t agree.” After all, it was a very dangerous matter. Since Father Fang and Mother Fang had only one daughter, there was no need for her to take such a risk.

However, Fang Xiyue felt that if she didn’t go, then only Shu Yu would be left as the sole girl in the group.

It wasn’t quite convenient to have only men like Ma Lu and the rest.

Plus, Fang Xiyue herself wanted the reward, as their family needed money.

She paused, then said to Shu Yu, “I’ll continue to persuade them, just give me one more day.”

Shu Yu waved her hand, “Don’t force yourself, hunting tigers is indeed very dangerous, and your parents are worried about you.”

“I know.”

As the two talked, they also carried the game back to the manor.

Shu Yu went straight home, and sure enough, Meng Yunzheng was already there waiting for her.

He looked dusty and travel-worn, and she had no idea where he had hurried over from.

Shu Yu hadn’t seen him in several days, and she wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but he seemed to have lost some weight.

When Meng Yunzheng saw her gazing at him, he couldn’t help but touch his face and asked with a smile, “What’s the matter, is there something on my face?”

Shu Yu shook her head, “No, just that you seem thinner. Have these past few days been tough?”

A sudden warmth surged in Meng Yunzheng’s heart, and his fingers twitched.

If it wasn’t for the time and place being inappropriate, what he most wanted to do now was to step forward and hug her.

He took a deep breath in secret, smiled, and said, “No problem, I’m fine.”

The old lady’s figure flashed by the door, and Meng Yunzheng chuckled. Sitting down across from her, he took a sip of water to cool the fervor in his chest.

“I’ve been looking for the Dongqing Temple master these past two days.”

As soon as she heard about her mentor, Shu Yu leaned forward involuntarily, “Did you find any clues?”

“Someone said she was seen in Minwu County, but by the time I got there, she had already left. Now I have no idea where she has gone, but I can be sure she is somewhere in Linzhang Prefecture.”

Shu Yu pondered for a moment. Her mentor was truly elusive.

“Do you think it’s possible that she has come to Heichang County?”

“Hmm?” Meng Yunzheng raised an eyebrow.

Shu Yu tapped her fingers, “You saw it back then, the note she left me said she was coming to the southwest first to take care of some matters for me, right?”

As it turned out, that was just loneliness, for all the arrangements were made by Meng Yunzheng. Even in Righteous Dao Village, it was her family who took care of her.

And the Dongqing Temple master, their mentor, had them worrying and making efforts to find her.

Shu Yu felt she had been bamboozled by her once again.

“Think about it, I’m here, and since my mentor said she came to the southwest for me, she should come to find me, right? If you’re not in a hurry, how about we wait for the rabbit to hit the tree?”

Meng Yunzheng rubbed his temple. It was exactly because he was anxious that he had gone out to look for her at this critical juncture.

However, Shu Yu was right, even if they went looking, they might not find her; it would be better to wait here.

Having decided on a direction, Meng Yunzheng stopped fretting.

He pulled a crossbow from behind him, “This is what you asked me to make, and it’s finished. It fits right on your wrist, and if covered by clothing, it’s not visible. However, it might slightly hinder your movements, so you should get used to it when you have time.”
