He Xiang asked cautiously, “Sister Lin, if Lu Shiyuan really wants to take revenge on you, will you have a hard time in the future?”
After a brief silence, Lin Shanchu said, “The worst days are over.”
No matter how difficult the future was, it would not be harder than before.
After that, she and Lu Shiyuan would have to rely on their own abilities.
Her death or Lu Shiyuan’s death would be the end.
If Lu Shiyuan could kill her, it would be because of his ability.
He Xiang did not understand Lin Shanchu’s words, but she sensed that Lin Shanchu had a mood swing, so she did not ask any more questions.
He Xiang looked at Qi Cheng who was sitting in front of her.
She thought Qi Cheng had something to ask Lin Shanchu.
In the end, Qi Cheng did not ask Lin Shanchu anything else even after they reached the residential area.
In the next few days, the three people involved in the incident—Lin Shanchu, Lu Shiyuan, and Tang Qidai did not show their faces again, and things eventually quieted down.
The topics about other celebrities were on the trending search list again.
There were scandals, hype and arguments.
However, the degree of attention was not as high as that of Lin Shanchu’s incident.
Many netizens advised Lin Shanchu to break off her engagement on Weibo every day.
[A routine question. Has Sister Rabbit annulled the engagement with the disgusting man?]
[Oh, not yet. Then I’ll come back tomorrow.]
[Call off the engagement. There’s nothing memorable about a scumbag like him.]
[Sister, listen to the people’s advice for your own good.]
[Respect the blessing? No way, I have to wait until the day Sister breaks off the engagement with the disgusting man even if it costs me my life.]
[Up until now, Sister has done everything on her own. I will always support Sister Rabbit!]
Lin Shanchu had been staying at home for a few days, browsing Weibo, watching TV shows, eating and drinking. Then, she received a call from Nan Mil.
“Come to my house for dinner tonight.”
“Didn’t we agree before?” Nan Mu chuckled. “I’ve already told Xunzhou that you’re coming to my house to cook. They’re coming tonight too.”
Lin Shanchu took He Xiang to Nan Mu’s house in the evening.
From afar, she could see Nan Mu standing at the entrance of the residential area and looking out.
When Nan Mu saw Lin Shanchu’s car, he happily ran over to help Lin Shanchu open the car door.
“You’re here. Get out of the car quickly.”
Lin Shanchu raised an eyebrow. “President Nan, if the reporters were to take a picture of this, I wonder what they would write about it.”
Nan Mu looked around vigilantly upon hearing her words.
After confirming that there were no reporters, he chuckled. “What’s wrong with that? Isn’t it normal for a boss to open the car door for the company’s popular artist? Do you believe I’ll deify you later?”
Lin Shanchu was speechless as she quietly got out of the car and walked into the neighborhood.
She really did not understand how Huo Xunzhou managed to be friends with Nan Mu for so many years, given his personality.
When they went upstairs, Nan Mu told Lin Shanchu that he had bought the groceries and asked Lin Shanchu to see if they were enough.
Lin Shanchu walked into the kitchen and saw that the groceries were piled up into a small hill on the countertop.
“If they are not enough, I’ll go buy it now, ” Nan Mu said next to her.
Lin Shanchu glanced at him and said, “They are more than enough to raise pigs.”
Nan Mu was silent for two seconds before he laughed loudly. “You called Xunzhou a pig, hahaha…”
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
“It’s probably Xunzhou. Go and open the door.” Nan Mu urged Lin Shan. He Xiang was Huo Xunzhou’s fan, so she wanted to tag along.
Nan Mu stopped her. “He Xiang, stay here and help me wash the vegetables.”
“Alright…” Since the boss had given the order, He Xiang could only stay.
Lin Shanchu opened the door and saw Huo Xunzhou.
However, there were other people outside the door besides Huo Xunzhou.
“Hey, silly girl.”
Huo Chaosheng stood behind Huo Xunzhou’s wheelchair and waved at her with a smile, looking annoying.
Li MO was not there.
It was obvious that Huo Chaosheng had brought Huo Xunzhou here.
Lin Shanchu stood aside without saying a word, gesturing for them to enter the house.
Huo Chaosheng pushed Huo Xunzhou in.
Huo Xunzhou nodded slightly at Lin Shanchu before he went inside to look for Nan Mu.
Lin Shanchu closed the door and wanted to follow him, but Huo Chaosheng stopped her.
Huo Chaosheng raised his chin and said smugly, “Li MO went out to handle some matters and he’s not at home. Third Brother didn’t plan to come here, but
I persuaded him to come over.”
“So?” Lin Shanchu really did not understand what was there to be proud of.
“Don’t you like him?” Huo Chaosheng said seriously, “I’ve created an opportunity for you.”
Lin Shanchu was at a loss for words.
It was her fault for misspeaking herself the last time.
Huo Chaosheng even winked at her, begging for praise.
“Thank you.” Lin Shanchu’s tone did not sound sincere.
However, Huo Chaosheng did not mind it at all. “Put it into action.”
He was similar to Huo Xunzhou.
He wanted gratitude to be shown through actions.
“What do you want to eat? I’ll make one just for you,” Lin Shanchu said patiently.
Huo Chaosheng blurted out, “Curry beef.”
“Alright.’
Lin Shanchu felt that it was a little strange.
Since Huo Chaosheng would hurt someone close to Huo Xunzhou, why was he still so friendly to her after thinking that she liked Huo Xunzhou?
Could it be that Huo Chaosheng felt that it was just her unrequited love for Huo Xunzhou and she was not considered being close to him?
If Huo Xunzhou liked her, Huo Chaosheng would probably attack her.
“Sister Lin!”
He Xiang’s voice came from the kitchen and interrupted Lin Shanchu’s thoughts.
Lin Shanchu strode towards the kitchen.
Shortly afterwards, Huo Chaosheng walked over.
He leaned against the countertop and said with a smile, “I’ll get Third Brother to come over and help you.”
Lin Shanchu was about to refuse him, but she bit her tongue when she thought that she was now in a state of “liking” Huo Xunzhou.
“He won’t come.”
“If someone else calls him, he definitely won’t come,” Huo Chaosheng said confidently.
Lin Shanchu looked at Huo Chaosheng suspiciously. “If you call him, will he come?”
“Of course.” Huo Chaosheng said proudly, “Wait for me.”
After a brief while. Huo Chaosheng really brought Huo Xunzhou over.
Huo Chaosheng said to He Xiang, “Sister, I need your help with something.”
He Xiang blushed and looked at Lin Shanchu, asking her opinion.
Lin Shanchu said, “Go.”
He Xiang left with Huo Chaosheng.
Before Huo Chaosheng left, he turned around and gave Lin Shanchu a cheering gesture.
The kitchen was open.
The living room was very big, and the two of them were soon far away.
Only Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou were left in the kitchen.
Lin Shanchu looked at Huo Xunzhou with a faint smile. “You’re quite good to your younger brother.”
Huo Xunzhou declined to comment about it and asked, “Do we have to deal with all these vegetables?”
His tone was serious, as if he was really just here to help her deal with the vegetables.
“Brother Xunzhou is so cold.” Lin Shanchu smiled.
Huo Xunzhou ignored her and turned to wash the vegetables.
Lin Shanchu looked at his back and stopped smiling before she slowly asked, “Do you know Qiao Jiaxm?
