Chapter 431

Mu Youyu and a few people arrived at the resort and saw several luxury cars parked at the entrance, with many students gathered around, packed three layers inside and three outside, looking especially lively.

A few people walked over slowly and immediately recognized two familiar faces in the crowd.

The seated person was tall and slender, a black mask covering most of his face, revealing only a pair of indifferent eyes, his hair casually draped over his forehead, with many students around him asking for autographs.

The other one standing nearby had no mask, his features handsome, a hint of a carefree smile in his brows and eyes, as he was saying something to the person beside him.

Mu Youyu blinked, making sure she wasn't mistaken, wondering how these two had come.

The students who couldn't squeeze in tiptoed to get a clearer look at the two, then involuntarily covered their mouths.

"That's... Lu Yuchu? When did he arrive? If I'd known, I wouldn't have come strolling; now there are so many people I can't even push through!"

"When did he return to the entertainment industry? Oh dear, I've been following that Shen Jin movie for a lifetime and still can't wait for the next season..."

"Seeing him reminds me of Ye Jun; before I knew their identities, I even shipped them as a couple..."

Shen Jin is the core character in the movie Lu Yuchu once starred in.

And in the film, his long-lost brother with opposing stance, Ye Jun, is played by Song Yan.

That movie was tailor-made for the two of them, and the bond between those characters left countless viewers unable to forget.

"I feel sorry for Chu Chu, having to manage such a huge Song Clan conglomerate at such a young age, leaving little time for rest."

"Is the one beside him his brother? I saw him on the hot searches before; it would be great if he could take over Chu Chu's position."

Lu Yuchu, who was signing autographs for fans nearby, actually had that intention.

The bodyguards accompanying the two noticed the young lady, voluntarily cleared a path, and Mu Youyu jogged over, saying, "Brother Yusui, Brother Yuchu, how did you come?"

Song Yusui stepped forward to ruffle her hair, but Lu Yuchu, who had just handed out a signed photo, swatted his hand away, saying, "I happened to be handling some business and came to check on you."

"Exactly, exactly!" Song Yusui agreed.

Jiang Liangjin: "Brother Yusui, Brother Yuchu."

Song Yusui casually joked, "Ah Jin, it looks like your hair's faded; when are you going to dye it again?"

Jiang Liangjin: "…"

Mu Xi remained silent, but Song Yusui was much more enthusiastic, saying, "It's been a few days—has our little Xi grown taller again?"

Mu Xi dodged his hand, "No."

Song Lujing giggled, also wanting praise, "Brother Yusui, Brother Yusui, I've grown taller!"

Song Yusui glanced at him, "Oh, impressive."

Song Lujing's face fell, feeling bored, and he asked irritably, "How did you guys come?"

"To see you." Song Yusui answered perfunctorily; this annoying brother of his only knows how to play games all day and never replies to his messages.

Song Lujing didn't believe him, since they had just said they came to see his sister, "When did you start treating me this well?"

"Haha, I've always been good to you; you just didn't notice."

Seeing that Song Yusui obviously didn't want to talk more, Song Lujing turned away, "Let's break off relations."

"No, no, I don't mind if you and Chu Chu cut ties; I still need your brother lately…"

"…"

Everyone stood together chatting for a moment when Zhou Laoshi hurried over and called away Mu Xi and Song Lujing.

Lu Yuchu didn't really want to deal with his older brother, so he moved closer to his sister and asked, "How's your competition going?"

"It's simple; I just drew seriously." Mu Youyu smiled, "I should be able to win a prize."

"Of course." Lu Yuchu said matter-of-factly, "With my sister competing, the trophy is practically hers for the taking."

Jiang Liangjin chimed in: "Exactly."

Song Yusui exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Wow, sister's amazing—winning another prize, she's practically a master level."

Mu Youyu felt a bit embarrassed by their praise, so she changed the subject: "Brother Yuchu, where are you staying tonight? Going back to C City or staying here?"

"I just asked—there are no spare rooms." Lu Yuchu glanced at Song Yusui, "We're planning to stay at an outside hotel."

Mu Youyu actually didn't like the resort's lodging—there are lots of mosquitoes at night—so she immediately said, "I have an apartment in A City that I lived in during school; it's not far from here. Let's go together later?"

Song Yusui and Lu Yuchu had no objections; Mu Youyu tugged at Jiang Liangjin's sleeve and looked at him for his opinion.

Jiang Liangjin replied gently, "Sure, I'll let the second brother know later."

He was staying in a single room, but for some reason his sleep wasn't peaceful, and he only got about six hours of rest, intermittently.

Since it was still early, Mu Youyu suggested taking them around the resort.

The group then walked leisurely into the resort's interior, where the scenery was even more exquisite than it appeared from outside.

Lu Yuchu followed behind his sister as they went in, his gaze sweeping over the resort's environment, and he gave a fair assessment: "The location was chosen well."

As they walked past a small bamboo grove, Mu Youyu caught a glimpse out of the corner of her eye of several people sitting in the pavilion ahead—men and women whose features she couldn't make out clearly.

She hadn't paid it any mind at first, but after a few steps she suddenly saw Jiang Ji sitting in the pavilion, facing them.

Song Yusui noticed the person and immediately became a bit interested, "Hey, what's this person doing here?"

Jiang Liangjin and Lu Yuchu followed the gaze over, and since learning about that matter, their impression of this person had improved considerably.

Jiang Ji sensed the looks coming this way, immediately gave an apologetic gesture to the people in the pavilion, then rose and hurried over here.

Song Yusui spoke first: "How have you been lately?"

"Brother Yusui, I'm doing pretty well." Jiang Ji smiled.

Lu Yuchu, still wearing his mask, said in his usual tone, "Are you guys from Lan Lin also on this spring outing?"

Jiang Ji answered honestly, "No, my mother sent me here; I have something to attend to."
