Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Atter Huo Xunzhou tinished speaking, he saw Lin Shanchu smiling. ‘Why do you like caring about me so secretly?”
She tilted her head slightly and her voice was soft and childish.
Huo Xunzhou’s ears were a little red. He cleared his throat and said seriously, “I just investigated her in passing. It’s not a big deal.”
Huo Xunzhou’s stubborn look was also lovable.
Lin Shanchu gave him a peck on the lips as a reward. Then, he leaned closer to her with a relaxed expression, trying to kiss her.
Lin Shanchu playfully turned her head to avoid him and said, “I have a headache. I need to rest.”
As she spoke, she lay back on the bed and pulled the blanket over her body, revealing only her large, pure eyes to stare at him.
Huo Xunzhou did not say anything. He rested one hand on the bed and leaned forward, locking eyes with her.
Lin Shanchu saw her own reflection in his eyes.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
Huo Xunzhou reached out and pinched her face before sitting down with a satisfied expression.
Lin Shanchu frowned and reached out to touch her face. He had pinched her face a little too hard just now, so she was thinking of revenge.
He Xiang’s voice came from outside.
“The hangover soup is here.”
Huo Xunzhou regained composure and wore his usual indifferent expression before he said in a deep voice, “Come in.”
He Xiang pushed the door open and entered the room with a bowl of hangover soup. Lin Shanchu saw Li MO standing behind He Xiang and looking inside.
Lin Shanchu thought that something was wrong with Li MO and gave him a
puzzled look.
As a result, Li MO just smiled at her.
What could be wrong with Li MO?
As a shipper, he just wanted to enjoy shipping the pairing.
Although he did not know what the two of them had done in the room just now, the ambiguous atmosphere made Li MO satisfied.
Li MO turned around and left, satisfied.
After He Xiang handed the hangover soup to Huo Xunzhou, she left the room.
Right after He Xiang closed the door, Qi Cheng came over.
“What are they doing inside?” Qi Cheng asked nosily. Looking innocent, He Xiang guessed, “Just… chatting?”
Li MO smiled mysteriously. “Hehe.”
In the room, Huo Xunzhou finished feeding Lin Shanchu the hangover soup.
“Go to sleep.”
He put the empty bowl aside.
“Are you going to leave?” Lin Shanchu obediently lay on the bed.
Huo Xunzhou tucked her in as he said, “I have to go back to the Huo family.”
Lin Shanchu noticed that he said “go back to the Huo family” instead of “go home”.
“Oh.”
She did not ask further questions.
Huo Xunzhou lowered his eyes slightly and looked like he was deep in thought. It was unknown what he was thinking.
After a while, he raised his head and said to Lin Shanchu, “My father will probably come find you soon.”
“Why does he want to meet me?”
Lin Shanchu was a little excited as she asked, “Does he know about us? Is he going to throw a check at me and tell me to leave his son?”
“You wish,” Huo Xunzhou said with a complicated look.
Lin Shanchu pursed her lips in dissatisfaction and waited for him to continue speaking.
“He will come to you not because of me, but because of Chaosheng.” Huo Xunzhou added, “He likes Chaosheng very much.”
His tone was the same as usual and his eyes were calm. However, Lin Shanchu felt a change in his emotions. She observed his expression carefully, but she could not tell what he was thinking.
Huo Xunzhou was emotionally reserved. As long as he wanted to, he could easily hide his thoughts so that others could not see through his mind.
Lin Shanchu pursed her lip and turned her head to stare at the ceiling, no longer trying to probe his thoughts.
“I know. It’s because there are rumors that Huo Chaosheng and I are a couple. Huo Chaosheng even snatched Cheng Fanjing’s qipao for me. That’s why your father thinks that Huo Chaosheng is too concerned about me, so he will come to warn me to stay away from Huo Chaosheng.”
Lin Shanchu suddenly laughed. “You told Huo Chaosheng to stay away from me before, but Huo Chaosheng still thinks that you hate me.”
Huo Xunzhou furrowed his brows slightly and looked a little upset.
“I know that you told Huo Chaosheng to stay away from me because you were worried that Huo Chaosheng would hurt me.” Lin Shanchu looked at him with a smile, trying to signal him to praise her.
Huo Xunzhou’s heart melted.
His Adam’s apple bobbed as he praised her gently. “Shanshan, you are really smart. You know everything.”
Lin Shanchu was delighted after being praised. “Don’t worry. When your father comes find me, I’ll try my best to control my temper and be polite to him.”
She did not care about his status as the patriarch of a top-notch wealthy family.
Huo Xunzhou suddenly called out to her solemnly.
“Shanshan.” “Hmm?”
“You don’t have to endure it.”
Lin Shanchu looked at Huo Xunzhou thoughtfully.
Huo Xunzhou smiled gently as he said, “You don’t have to sacrifice yourself for anyone.”
He hoped that she could live freely and happily.
If Lin Shanchu did not live a free and happy life, then everything he had done would be meaningless.
Huo Xunzhou waited for Lin Shanchu to fall asleep before leaving.
For the next two days, Lin Shanchu was busy endorsing the jewelry brand.
After the jewelry brand owner officially announced the endorsement contract with Lin Shanchu, the two parties signed the contract. After that, Lin Shanchu headed to the studio to shoot for promotional materials.
The shooting continued for several days.
It happened to be evening after the shooting was completed on that day.
The brand staff came over to talk to Qi Cheng about the dinner.
Qi Cheng remembered that Lin Shanchu returned to the hotel after work in the wee hours of the morning. She woke up before dawn today to come over for makeup, so he rejected the staff’s suggestion.
“Everyone has been quite tired these few days. Why don’t you go back and rest first? We’ll meet again when we have the chance.”
The entire team was exhausted. The staff also wanted to go back and rest as soon as it was over. The staff just suggested a gathering out of courtesy. Therefore, the staff did not sav anvthinq else after after Qi Cheng declined the invitation.
When Lin Shanchu returned to the lounge to change her clothes, Qi Cheng asked her, “Do you want to eat outside or go back to the hotel?” “Let’s go back and eat at the hotel.” Lin Shanchu yawned.
Working was tiring.
Being an endorser would not make her happy, but it would make her rich.
“Alright.” In fact, Qi Cheng intended to go back to the hotel for dinner.
The three of them walked out as they chatted. Just as they reached the parking lot, they were stopped by someone.
“Miss Lin, President Huo wants to see you.”
The person who stopped them was a man in a suit and leather shoes, looking very decent.
Qi Cheng and He Xiang looked at each other.
Which President Huo?
Anyway, it could not be Huo Xunzhou.
He Xiang had learned her lesson because of Yu Cheng. She asked Lin Shanchu softly, “Sister Lin, is this person also a senior executive assistant?”
“Yes.” Lin Shanchu covered her lips with her hand and turned to He Xiang. “The pinnacle of the senior executive assistant.”
He Xiang said softly, “Wow.”
“Miss Lin, please.” The senior executive assistant turned slightly and made an inviting gesture.
Qi Cheng turned to look at Lin Shanchu and said, “Shanshan…”
Lin Shanchu interrupted Qi Cheng, “You guys go back to the hotel first..”
