Chapter 1185: Chapter 1184: Almost Late
Because of Mu Yeli’s disturbance, Ye Ning realized when she woke up that she was already quite late.
She sat up quickly and said, "Oh my, I’m late. I think I was supposed to be back on the ship by nine, what time is it now?"
Mu Yeli was still beside her, squinting as he looked, "It’s okay, it’s only half-past ten."
"It’s already half-past ten..."
"Don’t worry, it’s not far."
However...
Ye Ning still saw that Zhang Zhiyou had called her like crazy.
Ye Ning hadn’t answered any of them.
She quickly called Zhang Zhiyou back at this moment.
As soon as Zhang Zhiyou answered the phone, he shouted, "Ye Ning, what on earth are you doing? The actors are all heading back, the ship leaves in the afternoon, and reporters are still there waiting to take pictures of you returning to the ship. How can you not answer the phone at this time? If you can’t make it back..."
"I’ll come back, I’m returning right now, don’t worry, I’ll definitely make it on time."
"I wanted to ask how exactly are you planning to come back? I’m telling you, if you come back now, you’ll definitely be stopped by reporters at the entrance, asking where you went last night."
"Relax, I won’t be caught."
Zhang Zhiyou didn’t believe it.
Ye Ning repeatedly assured him for quite a while, hung up the phone, and angrily said to Mu Yeli beside her, "Look, it’s all your fault!"
Mu Yeli grabbed the watch on the side and checked the time, "We can still make it if we leave now. Let’s go, I’ll take you."
Ye Ning could only get up and run out first.
After packing up, she hurried to the ship.
Zhang Zhiyou kept nervously watching outside, worried he’d see her coming back with some man from the dock and then get stopped by reporters.
However, she really hadn’t shown up.
He then began to worry whether Ye Ning wouldn’t be able to make it back after all.
What would they do about the scenes left to shoot on the ship?
At this moment...
"Brother Zhiyou, I’m back."
Ye Ning suddenly jumped over from behind.
"Goodness..." Zhang Zhiyou was startled, and upon seeing her, he was both surprised and puzzled.
"When did you get back?"
"Just now."
"How come I didn’t see you?"
"Huh? You probably weren’t paying attention," Ye Ning said.
That’s impossible.
He had been watching the dock closely and hadn’t taken his eyes off it.
But Ye Ning somehow managed to come out from inside, which was absolutely illogical.
Ye Ning actually didn’t come from the dock.
She had come in through the back staff passage with Mu Yeli.
With Mu Yeli accompanying her, the journey was smooth.
Naturally, they avoided the people and journalists in front.
Zhang Zhiyou looked behind her and saw she was alone. He was still thinking it was strange he didn’t see that man.
Zhang Zhiyou didn’t say anything, nor did he notice that the clothes Ye Ning was wearing were actually men’s clothes.
Actually, they weren’t exactly men’s clothes but rather gender-neutral casual wear.
But indeed, they were Mu Yeli’s.
She hadn’t brought clothes and had been resting in the room the whole time, so when she woke up, she couldn’t catch up with the time and had no time to buy clothes. Thus, she wore a casual outfit that Mu Yeli had brought along.
Luckily, she made it.
She looked up to see that Mu Yeli had already gone up by himself.
She said nothing and let out a sigh of relief.
People on the ship were gradually returning, and the ship would not stay in the port any longer than necessary. It would depart on time.
