Lin Shanchu stood by the door and crossed her arms as she looked at Huo
Xunzhou.
The two of them seemed to be competing, and neither of them took the initiative to speak.
Both of them were surprisingly patient.
Li MO seriously speculated that if no one interrupted them, they would go on like this all day.
He cleared his throat and greeted, “Miss Lin.”
Lin Shanchu looked up and smiled. “Please come in.”
Li MO pushed Huo Xunzhou into the house.
He Xiang was coming out of the kitchen with washed fruits.
Since Lin Shanchu went out at noon, she was so busy that she did not even bother to have lunch. Now that she saw the food, she finally felt hungry.
She reached out and grabbed a bunch of grapes from the fruit plate. She peeled them and stuffed them into her mouth without stopping.
“Ahem.” Qi Cheng coughed heavily, signaling Lin Shanchu to stop eating since there were guests present.
Lin Shanchu picked up the last bunch of grapes in her hand and handed it to
Huo Xunzhou, who was sitting opposite her. “Do you want to eat them?”
Qi Cheng’s mouth twitched. He then gave Huo Xunzhou a professional fake smile. “Best Actor Huo, Shanshan was just joking with you.” He watched Huo Xun reach out calmly to take the grapes.
“Thank you.”
Qi Cheng was bewildered.
The netizens knew that Lin Shanchu was the daughter of Huo Xunzhou’s so-called master.
However, as an insider, Qi Cheng knew that he could not believe all the news.
Lin Shanchu had some history with Huo Xunzhou.
However, from Qi Cheng’s observation, Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou did not have a deep relationship.
At least, it was not deep enough for them to eat the other party’s leftover grapes…
But how should he explain the current situation?
Qi Cheng suddenly remembered what Huo Chaosheng had said just now. “Best Actor Huo , you haven’t had dinner yet, right?” Huo Xunzhou must be too hungry.
“We haven’t eaten yet.”
Huo Chaosheng answered Qi Cheng.
After glancing at the grapes in Huo Xunzhou’s hand, Huo Chaosheng looked displeased as he asked Lin Shanchu, “Why did you only give Third Brother grapes? What about me?”
Lin Shanchu pushed the fruit plate in front of Huo Chaosheng, showing an expression that she did not care whether he would eat the fruits or go hungry.
Qi Cheng had mixed feelings.
He had not taken care of many artists, but he had seen many of them.
He had seen pushy people, fearless people, and arrogant people…
However, he had never seen someone as arrogant as Lin Shanchu.
It was only her basic operation to not play by the rules.
He was worried that this lady would just make a scene when she was in a bad mood one day.
Even so, there were still people who rushed up to her.
For example, Huo Chaosheng…
Huo Chaosheng glared at Lin Shanchu. “Differential treatment!”
“It’s good that you know it.” Lin Shanchu gave him an appreciative smile.
Huo Chaosheng asked, “In what way am I inferior to Third Brother?”
Huo Xunzhou turned a deaf ear to their argument and focused on peeling grapes for himself.
He was relaxed.
He did not even bother to control his annoying little brother!
Since that was the case, she could not be blamed.
Lin Shanchu reached out and brushed the hair next to her ear. “Don’t you know that Brother Xunzhou is more handsome than you?”
After she finished speaking, she looked at Huo Xunzhou with a hesitant expression.
In the next second, he choked on the grape.
“Cough, cough!”
“Big brother, are you alright?”
Li MO hurriedly patted Huo Xunzhou on the back.
Huo Xunzhou lowered his head and coughed. His expression was unclear, and his ears turned red from the coughin.
It must be very uncomfortable.
“Look at how you scared my Third Brother!” Huo Chaosheng looked like he was waiting for a good show.
Lin Shanchu glared at Huo Chaosheng.
After Huo Xunzhou calmed down, Lin Shanchu silently handed him a glass of water.
Huo Xunzhou looked up calmly.
Perhaps it was because of the violent coughing just now, but the color of his lower eyelids looked brighter than usual, making his charming eyes inexplicably bewitching.
Staring at those eyes for a long time would make one’s heart flutter.
“Thank you.”
He thanked her and reached out to take the glass of water.
His long fingers inadvertently came in contact with her fair fingertips. As if waking up from a dream, Lin Shanchu quickly retracted her hand.
The water in the glass swayed and most of it was spilled.
Lin Shanchu’s expression changed slightly as she looked at the water spilled on the table.
Huo Chaosheng came over with an interested look and asked Lin Shanchu. ‘You really like Third Brother?”
Lin Shanchu replied with a faint smile. “Why else would I like you?”
At this moment, the doorbell rang outside.
“It’s probably Nan Mu.”
Huo Xunzhou’s voice sounded. “He had lunch at Yong Shui Pavilion, so I asked him to bring lunch over by the way.”
There was no emotion in his calm tone.
The incident just now ended peacefully, saving Lin Shanchu blushes inadvertently.
“I’ll open the door.” Lin Shanchu stood up and walked towards the door.
The person outside was indeed Nan Mu.
Beside him was an insulated delivery box that was half the height of a person.
It was custom-made by Yong Shui Pavilion, looking exquisite with the label of Yong Shui Pavilion printed on it.
Nan Mu placed his hands on his hips and panted heavily.
When he saw that it was Lin Shanchu who opened the door, he immediately looked serious and asked with concern, “Are you alright?”
Nan Mu knew that Lin Shanchu hated Lu Shiyuan and Tang Qidai.
However, Lin Shanchu’s tearful look in front of the journalists was too sincere, making her look miserable and pitiful.
Nan Mu could not tell if Lin Shanchu was really sad.
“I’m fine.” Lin Shanchu pointed at the delivery box. “Why did you bring such a huge box alone? Why didn’t you ask someone to help you?”
Yong Shui Pavilion offered delivery services to certain specific members.
“Xunzhou said that if someone else were to come over to deliver it, they might expose your address.” Speaking of this, Nan Mu’s tone was full of resentment.
His buddy was dating his artist, but he was the one who suffered!
After Nan Mu finished speaking, he looked inside the house with guilt, fearing
that Huo Xunzhou would hear him.
Qi Cheng came over to help carry the delivery box.
The food was still warm, and then the dining table was filled with the food.
After dinner, Nan Mu and Lin Shanchu started to talk about what happened today.
“After that, you can cooperate and send a reply on Weibo. You can leave the rest to the company.”
“Alright.”
Tang Qidai’s downfall was certain.
The next thing Lin Shanchu needed to do was to clean up the aftermath and then use the opportunity to market herself to gain a wave of popularity and stabilize her fans.
Naturally, these professional matters had to be done by professionals.
“As for Lu Shiyuan…” Nan Mu was somewhat discouraged as he sighed. “It’s true that we can’t do anything about him for the time being.”
Lin Shanchu said softly, “It’s alright, there’s still a chance.”
“Is there anything I can help you with?” Huo Chaosheng suddenly asked.
It was obvious that he still held a grudge against Lu Shiyuan for beating him up.
In this aspect, he was somewhat similar to Huo Xunzhou.
They all held grudges.
“I’ll do it myself.” Lin Shanchu shook her head..
