Lin Shanchu blinked hard a few times before she felt a little more awake. âMy schedule is a little packed these few days.â
âHow can Third Brother be like this? Iâll help you teach him a lesson later,â Yun Wu said seriously.
Lin Shanchu looked at her with a faint smile as she asked, âYou dare?â Yun Wu touched her neck guiltily and said weakly, âI donât dare to do so.â âHow does it feel to be in a group?â Lin Shanchu asked her, âAre you used to it?â
âItâs pretty good!â Yun Wu nodded vigorously, looking very satisfied with the group life.
Lin Shanchu was a little surprised. Just as she was about to ask more questions, she heard Yun Wu say, âThe company specially hired a housekeeper to cook for us. Itâs said that sheâs a retired chef and her cooking skills are very good!â
Speechless, the words of concern were on the tip of Lin Shanchuâs tongue, but she did not know whether to say it or keep quiet.
An Youyun and Xia Jinmeng were not on good terms with her, whereas Yun Wu was close to her. She was a little worried that they would target Yun Wu.
Now, it seemed that she had overthought it. After a long time, two words fell from Lin Shanchuâs lips, âThatâs good.â âAre you busy tomorrow?â Yun Wu asked.
He Xiang, who had been standing quietly at the side, considerately reported Lin Shanchuâs itinerary for the next day.
âSister Lin will be joining the crew to film âTop Feastâ tomorrow afternoon, so sheâs free in the morning.â
âIâll be free tomorrow morning too.â
Yun Wu winked vigorously, hinting that Lin Shanchu could invite her to hang out at the house.
Lin Shanchu was very cooperative as she extended an invitation to Yun Wu. âThen, tomorrow morningâ¦â
Yun Wu said, âThereâs no need to wait till tomorrow morning. Iâll go home with you later after the event.â
Before Lin Shanchu could say anything, He Xiang ran over excitedly and asked, âReally?â
Yun Wu knew nothing about He Xiangâs identity as a shipper of âLinYunâ pairing. âOf course itâs real, Shanshan, donât you think so?â
Lin Shanchu nodded and gave He Xiang a strange look.
He Xiang chuckled, turned around and sat down, pretending that nothing had happened.
When the event ended, Lin Shanchu went backstage alone.
The aisle leading to the backstage was a little narrow and dimly lit, looking very depressing.
Lin Shanchu felt a little suffocated as soon as she walked into the aisle.
Her body had been experiencing all sorts of discomfort since yesterday.
Just as the tightness in her chest eased, she felt a familiar pain.
What was supposed to come had come.
The cancer pain acted up again.
It seemed like⦠it was a little more painful than she had imagined.
The noises from the frontstage reached her ears and people passed by her from time to time. If she collapsed here, someone would immediately discover her and take her to the hospital.
After that, the news of âLin Shanchu is terminally illâ would probably be trending on the social media.
It was not time yet.
After taking a deep breath, Lin Shanchu gritted her teeth and held onto the wall to steady herself and prevent herself from collapsing.
Just as she was about to give in, a large hand held her waist from behind.
The warm touch seeped through the thin fabric of her clothes, dissipating the pain a little for some reason.
Lin Shanchu turned around abruptly.
Under the dim light, the manâs defined face looked as calm as water and his deep charming eyes were dark and obscure.
Sensing that Lin Shanchuâs condition had improved, Huo Xunzhou retracted his hand and said indifferently, âIf youâre not feeling well, donât force yourself to participate in the event. How are you going to make money for the company when youâre fatigued?â
It seemed that Yun Yi had relayed her words word for word to Huo Xunzhou.
Lin Shanchu lowered her eyes slightly and her serious tone carried a trace of respect as she said, âPresident Huo, you are right.â Se used to call him Teacher Huo or Mr. Huo.
Now, she even called him President Huo.
She was really a sensible, tactful and good employee.
After taking two deep breaths, Huo Xunzhou turned his wheelchair and left expressionlessly.
Unfortunately, the aisle was narrow and winding, so it was not easy for wheelchairs to pass through. Huo Xunzhou soon hit the wall.
Bang!
Huo Xunzhou stared at the wall and did not move for a while.
It was fine if that heartless woman Lin Shanchu wanted to piss him off.
Now, even the wall was against him!
Lin Shanchu observed Huo Xunzhou for a moment. She was worried that he might have hit his leg, but she could not ask him directly.
She was afraid that he would feel awkward.
âPresident Huo, can I help you?â she asked tentatively.
âItâs none of your business!â Huo Xunzhouâs tone was fast and anxious, sounding very angry.
Strangely, Lin Shanchu did not feel afraid at all.
For some reason, she even wanted to laugh.
Who would have thought that the superficially cold and aloof Best Actor Huo would fight with a wall behind the scenes?
Lin Shanchu did not say anything else.
She walked over silently and pushed Huo Xunzhouâs wheelchair forward.
âI said itâs none of your business!â Huo Xunzhou sounded even angrier.
Lin Shanchuâs tone was calm and gentle. âIâm sorry, President Huo. I donât want to be nosy, but youâre in my way.â
Huo Xunzhou was speechless. She really wanted to piss him off.
As soon as they were out of the aisle, the field of vision widened.
Yu Tian had returned to the backstage before Lin Shanchu and was waiting for her at the exit.
âShanshan.â Yun Wu ran over as she shouted, âThird Brother!â
Lin Shanchu handed Huo Xunzhou over to Yunwu. âIâll go to the lounge to clean up first. Iâll come to you later.â
âOh, okay.â
Yun Wu averted her gaze and looked at Huo Xunzhou. âThird brother, why is Shanshan so cold to you?â
âIs she not cold to you?â Huo Xunzhou sneered.
âSheâs not.â Yun Wu blinked and looked smug. âWe agreed to go home together later. Iâll spend the night at her house tonight and eat her cooking at her house tomorrow.â
Huo Xunzhou looked at Yun Wu in disbelief.
Was his position in Lin Shanchuâs heart inferior to Yun Wuâs?
Yun Wu sighed and said with a troubled expression, âThird Brother, you donât have to be jealous of me. Itâs not like I can encounter such a good thing every day. After all, Shanshan and I are too busy with work and donât have time.â
Huo Xunzhou said, ââ¦You may go.â
âAlright.â Yun Wu glanced at Li MO who was coming over not far away. âThen
Iâll go look for Shanshan. Go home and rest early, Third Brotherâ¦â
Huo Xunzhou shouted, âDonât call me Third Brother!â
Yun Wu took two steps back. After confirming that she was at a safe distance, she said arrogantly, âPresident Huo, itâll be hard for you to get a girlfriend if youâre so fierce.â
Yun Wu turned around and slipped away before Huo Xunzhou could hit the roof.
She ran very quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Li MO walked over at this moment and looked in the direction where Yun Wu had left.
âBig Brother, did something happen? Why did Miss Yun run away in such a hurry?â
âSheâs running for her life. How can she not be in a hurry?â Huo Xunzhou sneered.
Li MO was terrified.
It had been a long time since he had seen Huo Xunzhou show such an expression.
Li MO did not know what had happened, nor did he dare to ask further questions.
âThen should we go back directly now or wait for Miss Yun to have dinner together?â
âDo you think I can still eat with Yunwu calmly?â Huo Xunzhou asked coldly in a deep voice, looking at Li Mo..
