Lin Shanchu looked up at him.
The first thing she saw was the man’s smooth and beautiful jawline.
Further up were the beautiful and alluring eyes which were filled with anger but became even more charming.
She would rather die in this man’s embrace.
It was the most realistic reflection of Lin Shanchu’s current mood.
“Go ahead. Be angry.”
She had to kiss Huo Xunzhou today!
She kissed him again after she was done speaking.
“You…”
This was the first time Huo Xunzhou was so angry that he couldn’t speak.
He raised a hand, wanting to push Lin Shanchu away.
However, when his hand touched Lin Shanchu’s shoulder, it was as if his hand became sentient. He pressed down on her shoulder, but he never pushed her away.
“I’ll come and see you as soon as I’m free,” Huo Xunzhou said, a little defeated.
It was clear that he had surrendered.
However, Lin Shanchu decided to change her strategy at the last minute. “You don’t have to come and see me. Just let me kiss you.”
The last time she kissed his hand, she ended up progressing their relationship. If she kissed somewhere else this time, then the effect should be more obvious.
She should be able to last until the end of the recording of ‘My Stage”.
Huo Xunzhou closed his eyes.
How could he forget?
This woman was the best at overstepping the line.
Naturally, Lin Shanchu was not as strong as him. After he pressed her shoulders down, she would end up getting pressed down again whenever she used all of her strength to stand on her tiptoes.
“I’ll visit you during your second public showdown.” Huo Xunzhou was still trying to persuade her.
“Do as you please.” She would not stop until she kissed him today.
Lin Shanchu glanced at Huo Xunzhou’s waist.
When Huo Xunzhou wasn’t paying attention, she reached out and placed her hand on Huo Xunzhou’s waist, gently stroking it.
“Lin Shanchu!”
It was obvious from his voice that Huo Xunzhou was really angry this time.
His expression darkened.
He withdrew his hand from her shoulder before grabbing her hand that was on his waist.
Lin Shanchu grabbed his hand immediately and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him.
She did everything in one go.
She didn’t even give Huo Xunzhou a chance to react.
The warm and soft touch on her lips disappeared in an instant.
Huo Xunzhou was still holding Lin Shanchu’s hand at that time. A look of helplessness flashed across his handsome and indifferent face before it disappeared.
He looked down at Lin Shanchu, his eyes cold and dangerous.
Lin Shanchu knew that she had offended him.
She blinked nervously and pretended to be calm as she tried to pull her hand back.
But before she could do that back, she was pressed against the wall.
Huo Xunzhou didn’t say a word. He didn’t even blink as he pinned her against the wall.
A smart woman should know when to yield.
“I’m sorry.”
Lin Shanchu bit her lip and looked at Huo Xunzhou innocently.
In the past, whenever she was rehearsing at school, everyone said that she looked the most pitiful and would trigger everyone’s sympathy whenever she made that face.
But she had forgotten.
At that time, Lin Shanchu was really pitiful.
Huo Xunzhou, who was already familiar with her nature, would not be fooled by her appearance.
Just when she thought Huo Xunzhou wouldn’t speak again, he asked unhurriedly, “Sorry for what?” His tone was gentle and calm.
Lin Shanchu tried to break free again.
However, no matter how hard she tried, Huo Xunzhou’s hand was like an iron clamp.
“I was wrong.” If she couldn’t win, she could only continue playing the role of the submissive person.
“Why do you think it’s your fault, dear Shanshan?” Huo Xunzhou’s laughter was so gentle that it made Lin Shanchu’s scalp tingle. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t teach you well.”
The hot breath he exhaled as he spoke was sprayed onto her ears.
She quivered as if she had been electrocuted.
“Can you let go of me first, Brother Xunzhou?” Lin Shanchu blinked while pleading pitifully. “My hands are numb.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Shanchu felt the grip on her hand loosen.
Delighted, she thought that Huo Xunzhou would let her go.
However, the next second she knew…
“Nope.”
The rising tone revealed a sense of pride as if he had succeeded in his prank.
Was this man toying with her as though she was a cat?
How childish and boring!
“You’re weak if you resort to bullying women!” Lin Shanchu glared at him. “You were the one who bullied me first.” Huo Xunzhou’s smile deepened.
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
That’s right.
She was the one who bullied Huo Xunzhou first.
If Huo Xunzhou hadn’t shown his indulgence toward her, she wouldn’t have dared to kiss him directly.
She had no one to blame but herself.
Lin Shanchu replied righteously, “Well, you didnt resist at all!”
Huo Xunzhou was furious.
If he didn’t teach her a lesson today, she would definitely do more outrageous things to him in the future.
Huo Xunzhou freed up a hand, grabbed her chin, and slowly leaned down.
Lin Shanchu blinked quickly.
Sh*t!
What was this man doing?
Was he going to kiss her?
“Let go of me!” Lin Shanchu’s heart raced.
As expected, it did not feel good to be kissed forcefully.
Huo Xunzhou’s eyes darkened and he didn’t listen to her anymore.
The atmosphere became ambiguous.
“Big brother, just now… sh*t! Sorry to bother you!”
Li Mo’s sudden appearance shattered the atmosphere.
Lin Shanchu took the opportunity to push Huo Xunzhou away and ran away.
She was starting to look flustered.
When she ran past Li MO, she accidentally bumped into him.
“Ms. Lin..
Lin Shanchu ran so fast that before Li MO could call her, she had already disappeared from his sight.
Li MO carefully turned to look at Huo Xunzhou.
He saw Huo Xunzhou loosening his tie in frustration.
He was a little scared.
He seemed to have ruined Big Brother’s plans.
Li MO didn’t dare to speak anymore.
He turned around and tried to disappear quietly, pretending that he had never been there.
As soon as he took his first step carefully, Huo Xunzhou quickly walked over and passed him.
Li MO was speechless.
Was he invisible?
Both of them ignored him.
Nan Mu had finished washing the dishes and was playing games in the hall.
He realized that it was Lin Shanchu, who was empty-handed.
“Didn’t you go up to pack your things?” Lin Shanchu had said that he was going upstairs to pack his things.
After packing for so long, why did she come down empty-handed?
Lin Shanchu didn’t seem to hear his voice as she ran straight to the kitchen.
Question marks appeared above Nan Mu’s head.
What was going on?
Nan Mu got up and followed.
He saw Lin Shanchu drinking from a glass of water.
Her face was also red.
“Are you all right?” Nan Mu asked worriedly.
Lin Shanchu finished a glass of water in one go. Then, she slammed the glass back onto the counter She looked up at Nan Mu expressionlessly. “Let’s go.”
“Didn’t you say you’d leave at night?” Nan Mu looked at the time.
Lin Shanchu was still expressionless. “I want to record the show. I miss Yun Wu, the director, and the others.” She walked out after that.
Then, her walk slowly became a run.
Nan Mu scratched his head.
No matter how he looked at it, he didn’t think that Lin Shanchu would miss them terribly.
Whatever.
Lin Shanchu was the key element of the show’s popularity.
The director did mention that he would go on strike if Lin Shanchu didn’t return to the studio.
Nan Mu decided to take her there first..
