Chapter 179: I Might Have Just… Missed You
When the Third Master was around, she never needed to use her hands to eat things with skin and sh.e.l.ls.
As she thought about it, she felt even worse. Tears nearly flowed down her cheeks.
Since when had she gotten used to having him by her side?
Even though he would be working and she would be reading her script, the duo would not disturb each other. The surroundings would be quiet, so she could clearly feel his presence. Her heart would be full of warmth.
However, when he was not around, she suddenly felt that the room had become strangely empty and cold.
Ling Sheng did not know when she fell asleep, but she did not finish her crayfish. She curled up on the sofa and fell asleep in a daze.
Until…
“Why are you sleeping on the sofa?” A low, s.e.xy voice spoke beside her ear.
Ling Sheng opened her eyes and saw the man’s face in front of her. Even though he was wearing a cold mask, her heart felt boiling hot. Suddenly, she felt wronged. She bit her lips and looked at him, her eyes misty as she said in a hoa.r.s.e voice, “Third Master.”
Jun Shiyan had never seen her look so weak and wronged. When he saw that the young lady was about to cry, his heart ached. “What happened? Who hurt you?”
He’d had an important meeting today, so he had been obliged to attend it personally. He had been worried that the young lady at home would not eat or sleep well, so he had flown back immediately after the meeting.
He was glad that he had rushed back.
Upon hearing the man’s voice, Ling Sheng shook her head. Suddenly, she reached out to touch his mask. She exerted a lot of force and nearly took it off. Her hand stopped abruptly, and she asked seriously, “Third Master, do you care about a person’s past?”
Suddenly… she became timid.
She did not dare remove his mask.
He had said that he was responsible for removing his mask.
Besides, her past was terrible, and she had a son.
She knew that he would not mind, but she had yet to figure out how to tell him everything.
“I don’t care.” Jun Shiyan looked at the young lady seriously.
In front of him, she had always been pa.s.sionate, cheerful, and confident. It was as though she was only positive and healthy in her life. No matter what happened, she would always move forward like the burning sun.
However, she had revealed weakness, hesitation, timidity, and lack of confidence in front of him now.
He was very happy that she had opened up to him, but his heart ached for her.
“Thank you.” Ling Sheng retracted her hand timidly. Suddenly, she did not know what to say. This was different from what she had thought.
She had initially wanted to woo him, but he was so nice that she felt that her actions and thoughts in the past had been despicable and shameful.
“Did someone give you a hard time on set? Did the director scold you? Did the crew ostracize you?” Jun Shiyan’s expression became serious, and his heart was aching terribly.
“No, I might just have…” Ling Sheng shook her head, finally revealing a warm, sun-like smile. She paused before saying, “Missed you.”
Jun Shiyan was stunned for a moment before feeling overjoyed. Before he could react, he felt emptiness in his embrace. The young lady, who had already jumped down, shouted at him, “Third Master, good night!”
When he turned around, the young lady had already run to the bed with her small body swaying. She lifted the blanket in a flurry and wrapped herself up like a pupa. Her joyful smile reached her eyes. Her thin lips moved slightly as she smiled softly. “Goodnight.”
When he heard her say that she had missed him, the exhaustion he had suffered from the whole day turned into sweetness instantly and filled his heart.
