Chapter 114 - 114: You Should Be Lucky That My Parents Passed Away Early
Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Novel Went Rampant After Her Awakening
Everyone who was shocked by Lin Shanchuâs actions finally came back to their senses.
Li MO looked at the smashed door. He pondered for two seconds before taking out his phone to take a picture of it.
After that, he sent it to Huo Xunzhou.
However, Huo Xunzhou was recording a show and didnât have time to look at his phone.
The secretary hurriedly picked up the documents and entered the office.
The other secretaries in the secretaryâs office heard the commotion, but they didnât dare to come over. They only dared to secretly watch Lin Shanchu smash the door with a hammer from afar.
Someone took out his phone to record a video. âSheâs definitely brutal.â In the office.
The secretary placed the documents in front of Lin Shanchu. âPresident Lin, these areâ¦â
Lin Shanchu picked up the pen and signed.
The secretary hesitated for a moment before asking softly, âPresident Lin, arenât you going to take a look?â
âI believe in your working capability.â Lin Shanchu put the cap back on, a hint of a smile present in her gentle tone.
The secretaryâs face turned red. âIâll work hard!â
When the secretary returned to the secretaryâs office, she was still dizzy with elation.
âHow did you get the documents signed so quickly?â the other secretaries asked her.
The secretary blushed. âLin Shanchu is so beautiful and gentle.â
The other secretaries were speechless.
There was a bar counter in Lu Shiyuanâs office.
It was stocked with all sorts of beverages including coffee and tea, and it could even be used to make fruit juice and milk tea.
Of course, Lu Shiyuan would not drink fruit juice or milk tea.
But Tang Qidai drank those sorts of beverages.
Lin Shanchu picked out a box of the most expensive tea leaves. âLi MO, do you want some tea?â
âNo.â Li MO hesitated before answering.
How could he ask his future sister-in-law to brew tea for him?
Lin Shanchu smiled and made him a cup of tea.
âThank you.â Li MO hurriedly took it.
âI should be the one thanking you. Youâve helped me a lot.â If Huo Xunzhou hadnât released the surveillance footage, Lu Shiyuan wouldnât have fallen so hard this time.
Li MO didnât forget to remind Lin Shanchu of Huo Xunzhouâs contributions. âBig Brother is always very helpful.â
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
Under Lin Shanchuâs suspicious gaze, Li MO gradually lost his confidence and rephrased his compliment. âWell, he loves helping people out depending on his mood.â
âLin Shanchu!â
Tang Qidai barged into the office angrily.
She threw the phone in front of Lin Shanchu and shouted, âAre you trying to kill Brother Shiyuan?â
On the phone screen was a news article from the media denouncing the Lu Corporation.
It was all about Lu Shiyuan being involved in a murder case, the Lu Corporation being finished, and the reshuffling of the entertainment industry in Xu City.
âYeah.â Lin Shanchu smiled.
âYouâ¦â Tang Qidai choked. âDo you know that because of you, the investors of my new drama have all withdrawn their investments?â
âI do now.â Lin Shanchu pushed Tang Qidaiâs phone away. âItâs good that they withdrew their investments. Itâs a losing deal anyway.â
Tang Qidai chuckled out of anger while grabbing her hair in frustration.
âEver since you accepted the interview, public opinion has been targeting the Lu Corporation and Brother Shiyuan. The Lu Corporationâs shares have even fallen to a new low! What benefits could you possibly obtain out of this? Your parents worked hard in founding the Lu Corporation too! Are you going to let them down like this? Arenât you afraid that they will be disappointed in you?â Lin Shanchu had to admit that Tang Qidai was quite good at coaxing people.
Otherwise, she wouldnât have gotten lied to by Tang Qidai when she was young and even treated her like a true friend.
âHow would you know that my parents are disappointed?â Lin Shanchu approached Tang Qidai and asked seriously, âDid my parents tell you in the middle of the night?â
Tang Qidaiâs lips moved, but she was momentarily at a loss for words.
âYou should be glad that my parents passed away early. Otherwise, itâs hard to say whether you can still survive till now, judging from how much they dote on me.â
Lin Shanchu walked out from the bar counter.
âWhat a pity.â Tang Qidai sneered. âThey were destined to die early because they had such short lifespans.â
âThatâs why I envy you so much. You were abandoned in front of an orphanage when you were born. After your parents abandoned you, they should be living very happily, right?â
Seeing Tang Qidaiâs sudden change in expression, Lin Shanchu smiled in satisfaction.
The Tang family had adopted Tang Qidai from an orphanage.
The more a person lacked something, the more they liked to show off. Therefore, Tang Qidai had always assumed the persona of a rich heiress when she debuted.
âLin Shanchu, you b*tch! Iâm going to tear your mouth apart!â
The fact that she was abandoned by her biological parents in the orphanage had always been a sore spot for Tang Qidai.
Tang Qidai lunged at Lin Shanchu and reached out to slap her mouth.
Lin Shanchuâs lips curled into a disdainful smile.
Just like in the novel, Tang Qidai would go crazy whenever the backstory of her being from an orphanage was mentioned.
Lin Shanchu lifted her leg and pulled the chair in front of her.
Tang Qidai, who was lunging at her, tripped over the chair and fell to the ground with a thud.
âDaidai!â
Tang Qidaiâs manager rushed over.
Seeing Tang Qidai fall to the ground, the manager frowned and helped her up.
Then, she started arguing with Lin Shanchu, âMs. Lin, arenât you going too far by treating Daidai like this? No matter what, Daidai and President Lu are still friends!â
Even though Tang Qidai had a bad temper, President Lu still liked her.
As Tang Qidaiâs manager, she had also basked in the limelight, so she naturally had to speak up for her.
The manager had been in the industry for so long. Naturally, she knew that Lu Shiyuan would not collapse over such a small matter, so she wanted to use Lu Shiyuan to pressure Lin Shanchu.
In her eyes, Lin Shanchu was just a fiancée in name only.
Even if Lin Shanchu had some shares in her hand, Lu Shiyuan still had the final say in the Lu Corporation.
Lin Shanchu sized up Tang Qidaiâs manager. âWhatâs your name?â
âKong Suyi.â Tang Qidaiâs manager thought that Lin Shanchu was finally scared of her, so she tilted her chin proudly.
Lin Shanchu walked to his desk, picked up his phone, and dialed the number of the HR department.
âFire the manager named Kong Suyi.â
Lin Shanchu then hung up the phone. âKong Suyi, you can go get your money and leave now.â
âWho gave you the right to fire me?â Kong Suyi shouted.
âKong Suyi is my manager. Itâs not up to you to fire her! â Tang Qidai started speaking up for Kong Suyi.
When Tang Qidai debuted, Kong Suyi was the one who managed her.
Therefore, Kong Suyi knew everything that Tang Qidai had done all these years.
Actually, she had gotten tired of Kong Suyi a long time ago. After all, Kong Suyi had managed her for several years, but she had yet to become an extremely popular celebrity.
Unfortunately, Kong Suyi knew too many of her secrets.
Even though Tang Qidai was annoyed, she had no choice but to protect Kong Suyi.
âThatâs right!â After noticing Tang Qidaiâs efforts to speak up for her, Kong Suyi looked confident once again.
Lin Shanchu glanced at Tang Qidai. âOh. As for you, you look exhausted. You must have tired yourself out recently. Take a break.â
âTake a break?â
Lin Shanchu nodded her head childishly, but her words sent chills down Tang Qidaiâs spine.
âDonât worry. Iâll get the others to distribute your gigs to other celebrities..â
