After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 151: Stealing Transport

Tong Yue finally decided, "Let’s just let Director Wei put in the effort to find soone himself."

To recomnd Mr. Shen to Director Wei, she might as well have a death wish.

Fortunately, it looks like the lead actress role for her own artist is virtually secured, just waiting for the official notice. The biggest weight she had in her heart finally dropped.

"Since that’s the case, I won’t schedule any work for you during this period. Emperor Yuan Zhao has a historical prototype. Before joining the crew, just read so history books to get a good grasp of how to perform. I’ll explain to President Shao. By the way, how about letting Zhengzheng accompany you to the museum and the Yinhe Palace ruins to get so first-hand experience?"

Jiang Lingxi instinctively wanted to shake her head and refuse. She was herself; why bother trying to understand herself further?

However, on second thought, taking a stroll around the museum and Yinhe Palace wouldn’t be bad at all. For her, it would be like revisiting old places.

She nodded, "Sure."

"Then I’ll have Zhengzheng make a reservation for you two. Tomorrow is Monday, and the museum is closed. You can go the day after when there won’t be many people on weekdays." She paused, "Anyway, you’re quite good at disguising yourself."

At least in that video of you playing shooting gas and beating high schoolers, no one has discovered the protagonist is actually a star yet.

Jiang Lingxi rubbed her nose.

Tong Yue returned her phone, "It seems your mom just sent a ssage."

Jiang Lingxi took her phone, read the ssage, and felt a bit of a headache.

"What happened?"

"My mom asked if I want to co ho for dinner tonight. My dad went out with soone to fish and caught a particularly big drumfish."

"With such good food, why hesitate? Why do you seem a bit reluctant?"

"She asked to bring her son-in-law along."

Tong Yue silently closed her mouth.

Jiang Lingxi wanted to reply imdiately that she didn’t have ti, but she reconsidered after calculating the ti since their last eting and eventually gave up the idea.

Parents asking their children to co ho for a al is often just an excuse to see their child.

She replaced the original self and couldn’t refuse such an ordinary wish from the elders.

After a mont, she switched the chat to Shen Yunqing and typed directly: "Are you free tonight? My mom wants us to co over for dinner."

The phone on the tea table lightly vibrated.

Feeling a pulse suddenly jump beneath his fingers, Wu Jue withdrew the hand he was using to check the pulse, "It seems a ssage from a very important person just ca. You should check it first."

Shen Yunqing didn’t stand on ceremony and picked up the phone. After reading the incoming ssage, he softened considerably, "I’m free."

Jiang Lingxi said, "Alright, five o’clock."

"I’ll co to pick you up."

Jiang Lingxi didn’t refuse. For such matters, once you get used to it, it’s quite natural.

She replied "Okay" and closed the chat.

Shen Yunqing set down his phone, "I’m afraid I can’t join you for the vegetarian al tonight."

"Are you going to dine with Your Majesty?" Seeing Shen Yunqing ready to extend his hand, Wu Jue waved it off, "Never mind, you’re not calm right now. Checking your pulse would yield inaccurate results. Let’s do it another ti."

"However, even without checking the pulse, I can see from your complexion that the backlash has lightened significantly. With proper care, it shouldn’t be a problem. But there’s sothing I’d like to ask of you."

"It’s rare to hear you say the words ’ask of you’." Shen Yunqing’s smile faded, "Please, go ahead."

"I suspect my little junior sister didn’t actually die at the ti, or at least not in the way I assud, both physically and spiritually destroyed. As you know, the ntal thod we practiced back then was passed down from the sa lineage, so we could sense each other. Recently, I felt a familiar fluctuation, although it was fleeting and quickly concealed again. It makes feel uneasy."

Upon hearing Wu Jue ntion his little junior sister, a dark shade flickered in Shen Yunqing’s eyes, "I rember you said your junior sister invented a thod to extract others’ fortunes to sustain her own immortality. If what you say is true and she’s still alive, she must have secretly hard many people by now."

A tinge of sha appeared on Wu Jue’s face, "The matter of stealing fortune was my oversight. I will continue to investigate it, and the reason I’m asking for your help..."

With a hint of killing intent in Shen Yunqing’s voice, he said, "She’s targeting Your Majesty’s fortune."

"Yes, of all the fortunes, Your Majesty, who expanded the territory of Dayin and secured centuries of peace, has the most abundant fortune, not to ntion you bearing the backlash for her, leaving almost no damage to her luck. My junior sister must be extrely envious."

Shen Yunqing nodded emphatically, "Alright, I’ll keep an eye out. If I catch the real culprit, I won’t show rcy."

"rcy is unnecessary, but ensure she can no longer cause harm."

"What ti did you arrange to leave with Mr. Shen?"

"Five o’clock."

Tong Yue glanced at the ti, picked up her bag, stood up, and called out to Lu Zhengzheng, who was organizing clothes in the wardrobe room, "Zhengzheng, we need to go."

"Ah, but I still have a few things left to pack."

"Mr. Shen will be here soon."

Lu Zhengzheng imdiately changed her tune, "Then I’m almost done packing. See you, Xixi sister."

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

Seeing Tong Yue and Lu Zhengzheng like this, she couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

Was Shen Yunqing really that intimidating? As if mice had seen a cat!

After sending the two off, Jiang Lingxi returned to her room to continue reading until the clock in the living room indicated half past four. Only then did she rise to change out of her overly casual attire and casually applied light makeup.

As she exited the wardrobe room, the living room clock began to chi the hour just as the doorbell rang almost simultaneously.

"Right on ti."

Opening the door, Jiang Lingxi instinctively looked at Shen Yunqing’s hands.

This ti there was no food box, only a car key.

"Let grab a few things."

Phone and bag were essentials, and Jiang Lingxi also fetched so packed clothes from the wardrobe room.

When she reached Shen Yunqing, waiting properly at the door, he naturally took the clothes from her.

Closing the door, the two walked together to the elevator.

"Are you driving yourself today?"

"Yes, Huzi is off today."

Downstairs, seeing the unfamiliar jet-black car parked at the entrance, Jiang Lingxi paused, then got in once Shen Yunqing opened the passenger door.

In her past life, she owned many magnificent or robust steeds, each considered a horse of the highest quality.

And yet now, she’s fallen to the point of not even owning a single steel steed.

A bit sour!

"Ms. Jiang, you should buckle up in the front seat."

Jiang Lingxi snapped out of her small sourness and fastened the seatbelt in silence.

Before starting the car, Shen Yunqing couldn’t help but glance at her. Clearly, from their eting at the door to just a mont ago in the elevator, she was just fine. How could her mood have suddenly turned sour?

After a mont of silence in the car, he cautiously asked, "Did sothing unpleasant happen recently?"

Jiang Lingxi: "You wouldn’t understand."

That feeling of having once been rich with the whole world, now suddenly poor and being reminded of it so sharply, how could soone with such an array of rides possibly understand?

Shen Yunqing: "..."
