“Really?” Xia Jinmeng’s face brightened.
“Lu Shiyuan declared at the banquet today that he wanted to sign you. This news will reach your boss’s ears very soon.”
“Your boss didn’t want to renew the contract with you anyway. Naturally, he won’t let go of this opportunity to show his goodwill to Lu Shiyuan.”
It was getting late.
Lin Shanchu was a little sleepy. She covered her mouth and yawned, noticing that Xia Jinmeng’s hand was in her pocket.
Today, Xia Jinmeng was wearing an oufit comprising a balloon-sleeved shirt and a pleated skirt custom-made by the show crew.
The pleated skirt had specially designed slash pockets.
Xia Jinmeng was holding her phone in her pocket, and a corner of her phone could be vaguely seen above her pocket.
It was normal for her to put her hands in the pocket or her phone in the pocket.
However, it seemed a little deliberate to hold her phone in the pocket.
Lin Shanchu averted her gaze calmly without showing any abnormality in her expression.
“Lin Shanchu, how can you be sure that my boss will give my contract to Lu Shiyuan?”
Lin Shanchu did not say anything. Instead, she slowly moved forward and approached Xia Jinmeng.
“I believe you, okay?” Xia Jinmeng subconsciously covered her face with her hands.
Previously, Lin Shanchu would always slap her out of the blue. Now, she was traumatized.
What was even more infuriating was that she still had to rely on Lin Shanchu to gain Lu Shiyuan’s favor and that she could not retaliate against Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu took the opportunity to take out the phone from Xia Jinmeng’s pocket.
Xia Jinmeng’s expression changed when she saw that. “What are you doing?
Return my phone.”
She reached out to snatch the phone.
Lin Shanchu grabbed her hand and turned her back before trying her finger one by one to unlock the fingerprint lock on her phone.
She was very lucky as she managed to unlock the phone by trying the index finger.
The screen displayed the recording interface.
Xia Jinmenz exolained in a panic, “I must have accidentallv touched it before.
I’ll delete the recording now.”
Lin Shanchu raised the phone high and dodged Xia Jinmeng’s hand.
“You don’t believe me?” Xia Jinmeng pretended to be calm as she said, “We’re all in the same boat now. Is there a need for me to play such a trick?” “Who’s in the same boat as you?” Lin Shanchu’s tone was filled with disgust.
‘You…”
Bang!
Lin Shanchu threw the phone into the sink and turned on the tap.
“Are you crazy? That’s my phone!”
Xia Jinmeng struggled to grab the phone, but Lin Shanchu pushed her away expressionlessly.
The sink was soon filled with water, and the phone screen went off.
“You’ve gone too far!” Xia Jinmeng said angrily.
“I can become even more extreme.” Lin Shanchu immediately searched Xia Jinmeng’s entire body.
Clothes were thin in summer, so it was not difficult to search the body.
Lin Shanchu made sure that Xia Jinmeng did not have any recording devices on her before retreating.
Xia Jinmeng was both angry and guilty as she looked away.
“After you go to Lu Corporation, we don’t have to see each other anymore. You just need to play your role well, and Lu Shiyuan will soon be as obsessed with you as he was with Tang Qidai.”
Upon hearing those words, Xia Jinmeng turned to look at Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu thought of something interesting after locking eyes with Xia Jinmeng.
“Oh right, Lu Shiyuan hasn’t slept with a woman yet. Wish you all the best.”
“What?”
Xia Jinmeng found it unbelievable.
Lin Shanchu covered her mouth and yawned again.
She was too sleepy.
She had to go back to sleep.
It seemed that she had to attend an event tomorrow.
After Lin Shanchu fished out Xia Jinmeng’s phone from the sink, she turned around and left.
Xia Jinmeng stood rooted to the spot for a long time before she came to her senses.
It turned out that Lu Shiyuan had never slept with a woman before.
He doted on Tang Qidai so much back then, but he had never slept with her?
Could it be that Lu Shiyuan was impotent?
On second thought, she felt that this possibility was very small.
She did not expect Lu Shiyuan to be a virgin.
If she could become Lu Shiyuan’s first woman…
Not only would she be able to enjoy endless wealth, but she would also be better than Tang Qidai..
Qi Cheng and He Xiang were waiting for Lin Shanchu at the intersection.
He Xiang walked up to her. ‘What took you so long? Were there many people in the restroom?”
“There weren’t many of them, ” Lin Shanchu smiled as she entered the elevator.
After getting into the car, Lin Shanchu handed Xia Jinmeng’s phone to Qi Cheng.
“Brother Qi, please get rid of this phone.”
“Alright.’
Qi Cheng did not ask further questions.
He Xiang was initially curious, but she did not pursue the matter either.
When they got home, He Xiang went to prepare a bath for Lin Shanchu.
When she finished draining the water, she realized that Lin Shanchu was already asleep on the bed.
“Sister Lin?”
Lin Shanchu opened her eyes in a daze. “Is it dawn already?” He Xiang laughed. “It’s still early. I just helped you fill the water.”
“Oh.” Lin Shanchu sat up, still looking tired.
He Xiang pulled Lin Shanchu up from the bed. “Sister Lin, are you that tired from tonight’s banquet? I didn’t see you so sleepy when you were filming night scenes a few days ago.”
He Xiang’s words alerted Lin Shanchu.
She was no stranger to this feeling of not being able to lift her spirits even though she was not tired.
This condition would often occur to her before she exchanged Health Points with the system.
It had been a little long since the last time she exchanged Health Points with the system, to the point that she had almost forgotten what it felt like to be sick.
After careful calculation, she realized that the time limit of the Health Points was almost up.
“You probably haven’t recovered from filming the night scenes a few days ago. That’s why you are so tired.”
Lin Shanchu looked at He Xiang. “Thank you for the hard work. You should go to sleep first.”
“Mhmm.” He Xiang replied, “Call me if you need anything.” Lin Shanchu entered the bathroom.
As soon as she lay in the bathtub, she began to feel drowsy.
She forced herself to stay awake so that she would not fall asleep during the bath.
After bathing, Lin Shanchu came out of the bathroom and lay on the bed. Then, she stared at the ceiling with her eyes wide open, stubbornly resisting the fatigue in her body.
She sighed and closed her eyes when her eyes started to become sore.
Forget it.
She should sleep first.
The next day.
He Xiang almost finished preparing breakfast, but she still had not seen Lin Shanchu around. Therefore, He Xiang came over and knocked on Lin Shanchu’s door.
“Sister Lin, it’s time for breakfast. You have a shoot later. If you don’t get up now, you’ll be late.”
Lin Shanchu woke up in a daze.
She picked up her phone and saw that it was already past 7:00 a.m.
Usually, she would wake up naturally at 6:00 a.m.
Lin Shanchu threw her phone away in frustration and shouted outside, “I’m coming.”
The breakfast prepared by He Xiang was still very sumptuous and looked very appetizing.
After Lin Shanchu sat down, she started to gobble down breakfast.
He Xiang looked happy. “Sister Lin, are you hungry? Eat more.”
After a while, He Xiang sensed that something was wrong.
“Sister Lin, aren’t you eating a little too much…”
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Shanchu, who was sitting oppc suddenly retched. Then, Lin Shanchu covered her mouth as she got u the bathroom..
