Chapter 102: A Youth Straight Out of a Manga

Back in her room, Yun Shuiyao remained restless.

Regarding that terrifying organization, Yun Shuiyao actually knew very little. But if Yun Mu discovered the secret of that sanatorium and informed the Yun family about it, whether it was Yun Tingying or Lin Wanqing, any of them could trace back to the truth of what happened years ago!

No, she had to investigate this matter herself.

The next day at noon, Yun Mu was dragged by Wen Qingqing to watch the content of the advertisement shoot.

When she returned to the lab after lunch, her expression was slightly grave.

With a serious look on her face, she immediately opened the silver briefcase on the experimental table.

Everything was there, but inside the glass vials, the preliminary refined M5 medicine was clearly reduced.

Yun Mu's expression turned cold as she turned around and opened her laptop. Instantly, a surveillance video popped up on the screen.

To her surprise, it was Yun Shuiyao who had sneaked into the lab while she was away, and even cracked the password to her safe.

But... why would Yun Shuiyao suddenly become interested in her M5 medicine?

Yun Mu narrowed her eyes, almost forgetting about the sanatorium incident.

If Yun Shuiyao knew that the sanatorium was actually the AR78 organization, then she naturally knew about the M5 medicine.

If that were true, then when Yun Xiao Sha was sent to that sanatorium, it must have been secretly orchestrated by Yun Shuiyao!

But five years ago, Yun Shuiyao was just a 15-year-old girl. Did she already possess such a vicious nature and cruel means back then?

A chill ran through Yun Mu's beautiful eyes as she closed the briefcase without showing any change in her demeanor, continuing with her experiments.

It was merely an impure defective product anyway. If Yun Shuiyao wanted to steal it, let her take it. She wanted to see what tricks this green tea girl was going to play now.

On Saturday, Yun Mu arrived at the shooting location as scheduled.

Makeup artists and stylists surrounded her, leading her into the lounge to prepare for her makeup, but Yun Mu declined.

"No need, I've already done my own makeup."

Everyone knew that her face beneath the veil had been disfigured, so the makeup artist didn't insist.

In their hearts, they secretly criticized, wondering why the company would choose a disfigured woman as their spokesperson?

Ignoring the looks others gave her, Yun Mu focused on reading the advertisement script in her hand.

This advertisement featured two spokespersons; the female spokesperson was her, and the male spokesperson was Jing Xu, a popular young idol, playing two hero characters from the game.

Yun Mu's character was the most beloved hero among female players, the Time Hunter, who traversed time and space, overcame thorns, and despite being scarred, searched for her lover.

And Jing Xu played the hero who was the lover of the Time Hunter, the Master of Cangliu.

There wasn't much story content; all they needed was for Yun Mu and Jing Xu to cooperate in filming a few action scenes.

It seemed simple enough, something that could be accomplished within an hour.

However, after the staff prepared everything and waited for another half hour, Jing Xu still hadn't shown up.

Damn! Was this the legendary behavior of a big-shot celebrity?

Behaving arrogantly in front of her, Yun Mu!

The staff in the photography studio began whispering among themselves. Just as Yun Mu's fiery temper was growing impatient, a sudden burst of screams and exclamations erupted from the crowd.

"My God! It's the film emperor, Yun Chengdong!"

"It's really Yun Chengdong! He's so handsome!"

The excited shouts of the surrounding girls reached Yun Mu's ears, causing her to pause.

Yun Chengdong?

Lifting her gaze, Yun Mu followed the direction of the girls' gazes.

A path opened up in the crowd, and a youth dressed in a white sweater slowly approached, carrying the aura of snow and wind.

The youth was beautiful, his silver short hair arranged neatly, his skin as white as snow, his eyes light and shallow, like a youth straight out of a manga.

This kid, he was Yun Chengdong?

Unlike the rebelliousness of the fourth son of the Yun family, and unlike the elegance and coolness of the eldest son of the Yun family, this third son of the Yun family appeared enchanting and ethereal, like a youth untouched by the world.

She had to admit, the physical appearances of the Yun family members were indeed one more perfect than the other!

However... the gaze Yun Chengdong cast upon her was not friendly, even tinged with coldness.

The manga-like youth slowly walked over, stopping in front of her, his indifferent lips curling. "Yun Mu, long time no see."

Indeed, it had been a long time since they last met.

In Yun Xiao Sha's memories, Yun Chengdong was the most cold and hateful among the four brothers of the Yun family towards her.

The last time they met was on the day Yun Xiao Sha was sent to the sanatorium.

Yun Chengdong stood on the balcony, looking at her with cold detachment, throwing Yun Xiao Sha's doll in disgust at her feet.

He said, "Idiot, you should stay in the place where idiots belong."

Truly... heartless.

Yun Mu's enchanting eyes narrowed slightly as she yawned languidly, then lazily reclined on the rocking chair. "What do you want?"

Yun Chengdong gazed at her, his eyes misty with an indistinct fog. After a moment, he spoke in a low voice, "I came to tell you that the male celebrity who was supposed to work with you won't be coming."

The moment Yun Mu saw Yun Chengdong appear, she had mentally prepared herself.

So she merely lifted her lips in a faint smile. "And then?"

"I'll take the role of the Lord of Cangliu."

What?!

Superstar actor Yun Chengdong would be playing the role of the Lord of Cangliu!

The staff members gasped in shock.

When this advertisement project first came out, the company's first choice was Yun Chengdong.

Putting aside his skyrocketing popularity, his incomparable beauty and bewitching aura, which was both demonic and ethereal, perfectly embodied the Lord of Cangliu himself.

But what kind of figure was Yun Chengdong?

The third young master of the Yun family, who dabbled in the entertainment industry for fun, yet he became an award-winning actor.

He only accepted one advertisement per year, and this year's slot had already been reserved by a prestigious international luxury brand.

That's why they settled for Jing Xu instead.

But who would have thought such a stroke of luck would happen!

Yun Chengdong was volunteering to shoot this advertisement?

Everyone felt as if they had been struck by lightning, no one delved into the reason behind his decision.

The advertising manager, who had just finished confirming the news with the company's boss, stood up in shock, his voice trembling slightly with excitement. "It's fantastic that Young Master Yun is willing to shoot our advertisement!! We will fully cooperate with Young Master Yun! Stylists, costume designers, come over... take Young Master Yun to try on the costumes!"

"Hold on." Yun Chengdong raised his hand, then spoke. "I always strive for perfection in everything I do, including my partners. Are you preparing to have me collaborate with a woman wearing a veil?"

Yun Chengdong's pale, slender finger pointed at Yun Mu.

It was a bold and invasive gesture.

The advertising manager was in a bind; this Yun Mu was the lead actress personally chosen by the boss.

"But... perhaps Yun Mu looks better with the veil..." the advertising manager ventured cautiously.

Everyone knew what Yun Mu's face looked like beneath the veil.

Yun Mu's long lashes lowered as she gently touched her forehead.

It seemed today's shooting wouldn't go smoothly after all.

Indeed, Yun Chengdong said coldly, "I read the advertisement script, and the female lead of Time Hunter doesn't wear a veil. Yun Mu, for the sake of the shooting effect, why don't you remove your veil?"
