Transmigrated into the body of a tycoon's son's ex-boyfriend

Chapter 119 Did he really ask for leave to accompany me?

The man was tilting his head and talking to Lu Yu, his tone carrying a hint of disdain, but mostly affection.

Lu Yu listened to him with her head down, a faint smile on her lips.

Xiao Ma had been by Lu Yu's side for more than two months and had never seen such a doting expression.

He stood there stunned, his hand holding the cardboard box slipped, and he almost dropped it on the ground.

No, how come there's someone else in Brother Lu's room after I haven't seen him all night?

Yesterday, he went to town to pick up a package and ate a bowl of rice noodles at a rice noodle shop in town.

It was already dark when I got back, so I went back to my room to sleep.

What exactly happened in between?

Even in filming, the plot doesn't move this fast.

Lu Yu saw Xiao Ma and waved to him.

"This is my assistant, Xiao Ma."

"Xiao Ma, this is Song Xijin..." He glanced at Song Xijin and received a silent warning in her eyes.

With a slight smile, she reintroduced him solemnly, "This is my boyfriend, Song Xijin. You can just call him Mr. Song."

"...Oh, okay, Mr. Song." Xiao Ma put down the cardboard box and quickly nodded to Song Xijin in greeting.

My mind was still racing.

Boy friend? !

When did Lu Ge get a boyfriend?

They've been filming in this secluded mountain valley for almost two months now, so where did this boyfriend come from?

Did it fly over?

Lu Yu turned her head and saw Song Xijin's satisfied face.

A hint of smugness lingered in her beautiful eyes, and she tried hard to keep her lips pursed.

He was secretly overjoyed, but he pretended to be calm on the surface.

He pulled Song Xijin's hand over, his fingers naturally interlocking with Song Xijin's, their ten fingers clasped together.

"What do you want to eat? I'll have Xiao Ma buy it today and make it for you at noon."

Yesterday's meal was too simple; I can cook more dishes today.

Song Xijin thought for a moment.

The dark-colored but uniquely fragrant mushrooms in yesterday's fried rice were quite delicious; they must be a local specialty.

He was brushing his teeth at the door when he saw many villagers coming down from the mountain, carrying baskets on their backs.

He casually remarked, "Is this place famous for its mushrooms? We could try some."

The black fried rice I made yesterday was delicious. Do you have any other varieties?

Lu Yu turned to Xiao Ma and instructed him, "Go buy some fresh mushrooms."

Xiao Ma immediately chimed in, "Okay, okay. It rained a couple of days ago, and a lot of people in the village went up the mountain to pick mushrooms early this morning. I'll go to the village in a bit and pick some fresh ones."

"Brother Lu, there are quite a few varieties of mushrooms. The locals said that termite mushrooms are also in season these days. Would you like to buy some?"

Lu Yu nodded and added, "Okay, have the villager kill a local chicken, clean it up, and bring it back."

"Okay, Brother Lu, leave it to me." Xiao Ma sorted the contents of the cardboard box and then turned to walk into the village.

He was making plans in his mind as he ran.

Mr. Song, my boyfriend, is from Beijing. He's incredibly handsome and has a refined air about him. Brother Lu personally cooks for him...

This is a lot of information; he needs to digest it properly.

Song Xijin held onto Lu Yu's hand tightly, unwilling to let go, and strolled along the path with him.

The village was relatively quiet in the morning, with only the film crew working in the distance and a few shouts occasionally drifting over on the wind.

"Lu Yu, why didn't you film this morning?" he asked, only then remembering to ask.

He had seen how serious Lu Yu was about his work before.

When filming "With Immortals" in Zhejiang Province, you went to the makeup room before dawn to do your makeup and styling. How come you came back at only 10 a.m. today?

"I've already finished filming my scenes this morning, and I've also spoken with the director. This afternoon, we'll film the scenes for the next two days in one go, and then I'll spend time with you."

Lu Yu held Song Xijin's hand and walked slowly, taking smaller steps than usual to match Song Xijin's pace.

Song Xijin stopped and turned to look at him.

Her eyes held a clear look of surprise and delight. "You took time off? Really took time off to be with me?"

He originally thought that it was already quite good that Lu Yu could come back in the morning to have breakfast with him.

Unexpectedly, this person took the initiative to finish filming for two days ahead of schedule, making time specifically to spend with him.

"Hmm." Lu Yu squeezed his hand. "Otherwise, you'll be bored by yourself. There's nothing fun to do here. I can't just let you stay in the room looking at your phone by yourself, especially since the signal is bad here."

"Xi Jin, you should really go back to Beijing. The conditions here are terrible. There are too many mosquitoes, you can't eat or sleep well, and it's inconvenient to take a bath."

"After I finish filming this movie, I can take a break and go back to Beijing to spend more time with you."

Song Xijin nestled in his arms last night, too weak to move, her voice filled with exhaustion.

Lu Yu felt sorry for him, but he wouldn't say anything mushy.

"No way." Song Xijin refused directly, the happiness on her face instantly replaced by vigilance. "I have a week off, and you're kicking me out on only the second day."

Lu Yu, were you lying to me last night?

"You don't like me that much at all. You just want to coax me back to Beijing so you can stay here and enjoy yourself, continuing to film with that Brother Dong and Brother Nan!"

"How could that be?" Lu Yu was both amused and exasperated by his barrage of accusations. She stopped and faced him, explaining earnestly, "I just felt that you were being treated unfairly here."

"Look at you, you've only been here one day and you're already covered in mosquito bites, and you're not used to the food either."

Lu Yu's fingers touched Song Xijin's wrist bone. A slender, smooth section.

Her fingers were still loosely wrapped around her, and there was still a bit of flesh left, even thinner than when we last met in Zhejiang Province.

He has lost a lot of weight in the past two months. His already small face has become even narrower, his jawline is more defined, and his collarbones are more prominent.

While he was away, this person must not have been eating properly again.

"I wonder who it is because of," Song Xijin muttered to herself, turning her face away.

In the end, I didn't say it out loud.

He was afraid that Lu Yu would feel uncomfortable if she heard this.

Lu Yu is a person who thinks a lot and takes on everything himself.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu tightened his grip on Song Xijin's hand slightly.

Not long after, Little Horse returned with a basket of spoils.

In addition to the slaughtered chicken that Lu Yu had instructed him to bring back, he also brought back a crucian carp that he had just caught from the river.

The fish scales have been scraped clean, the gills have been removed, and it's tied up with straw. It still occasionally jumps around.

The basket contained several kinds of freshly picked mushrooms; the green-headed mushrooms had bright green caps, and the rice-water mushrooms were a beautiful pale purple.

There are still a few termite mushrooms with long stems and caps that haven't fully opened yet; this is the best time to eat them.

Song Xijin squatted down next to the basket curiously to look at it.

The wildest ingredient he had ever seen in Beijing was matsutake mushrooms, all of which were freshly air-freighted in.

Each flower is packaged individually in an exquisite wooden box lined with pine needles, and its price is equivalent to an average person's monthly salary.

The mushrooms here are great; the locals picked them fresh from the mountain, still covered in mud, and casually put them in bamboo baskets—a colorful variety of mushrooms.

"Is this really edible? It looks poisonous." Song Xijin pointed to the two kinds of mushrooms.

One is bluish-green, and the other is light purple.

These two colors, when applied to any food, give the impression of being a toxic warning.
