Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Xunzhou sat in his wheelchair, so he had nowhere to hide.
He steadily caught the girl who fell into his arms.
The girl in his arms leaned on his shoulder gently while emitting a cold fragrance.
He subconsciously reached out to hold her waist.
Her soft waist seemed like it would break if he were to tighten his grip. He didnât dare to use too much force, but he still held her firmly. The others were so shocked that they forgot to react for a moment.
The comment section also exploded.
[Whatâs going on?]
[Lin Shanchu canât dance, so she wants to blackmail Mr. Huo! Is that it?]
[Iâve really opened my eyes. This is the first time Iâve seen such a trashy woman.]
Lin Shanchu pretended to fall into Huo Xunzhouâs arms to try the effect of making intimate contact with him.
Hence, she wanted to get up immediately. She even prepared an excuse in advance.
Howeverâ¦
Her waist was firmly held by Huo Xunzhou, so she couldnât get up at the moment.
Huo Xunzhou turned his head slightly and whispered into her ear, âAre you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?â
Lin Shanchuâs physical condition had always been bad.
He had seen her suffering from her illness and faint before.
Therefore, it was natural for him to think that Lin Shanchu was sick again.
He didnât think that Lin Shanchu was faking it.
Huo Xunzhouâs tone was upright and honest with a hint of concern.
However, his deliberately lowered voice was very pleasant to listen to.
It was like a demonâs whisper, confusing people without them knowing.
Lin Shanchuâs eardrums went numb.
Her body, which was originally trying to support itself, instantly lost all its strength. In the end, she fell back onto Huo Xunzhou.
She muttered weakly, âIt hurtsâ¦â
All of this happened in the blink of an eye.
After a brief moment of shock, the others finally reacted.
âLin Shanchu?â
âLin Shanchu, whatâs wrong with you?â
âBig Sister, are you okay?â
Ning Yunxi squeezed to the front anxiously and tried to check on Lin Shanchuâs condition.
Li MO saw Huo Xunzhouâs serious expression and whispered, âBig Brother, should I take Ms. Lin to the doctor?â
It was a pity that Big Brother still had to sit in a wheelchair and pretend to be disabled.
Otherwise, he could play the role of a hero and bridal-carry Lin Shanchu to safety.
Huo Xunzhou ignored Li Mo. Instead, he turned to look at Ning Yunxi. âTake her to the infirmary.â
The dancers tended to be stronger. Ning Yunxi and another girl worked together to carry Lin Shanchu to the infirmary easily.
The comments started filling the screen.
[Some people should be kinder to others. Lin Shanchu only fainted because she wasnât feeling well.]
[Thatâs right. Most of the people watching the show are girls. Why do you have to be so malicious?]
[Tch! Who knows if sheâs faking it or not?]
[Why would she fake her illness in front of Mr. Huo, the greatest actor ever, and during the livestream? Are you dumb?]
[Or maybe sheâs pretending to be sick just to avoid practicing âDeath of the
Universeâ.]
[Lin Shanchu is too thin. Sheâs so pale that she doesnât look healthy at allâ¦] There were doctors on duty 24 hours a day in the infirmary.
As soon as Lin Shanchu was sent to the infirmary, Huo Xunzhou asked the doctor to do a check-up on her.
Check-up?
There were only simple equipment in the infirmary, but the doctor was still very professional. He would definitely be able to detect the abnormality in her body.
The fact that she was terminally ill must not be spread.
If this news were to be spread to Lu Shiyuan, he would have a reason to make her withdraw from the show.
The moment she thought of this, Lin Shanchu slowly opened her eyes.
ââ¦Yunxi.â
âBig Sister, youâre awake!â Ning Yunxi turned around immediately.
âDid you guys bring me here?â Ning Yunxi helped Lin Shanchu up.
Ning Yunxi explained, âYou suddenly fainted, so Mr. Huo asked us to bring you to the infirmary. How are you feeling now? â
Lin Shanchu smiled slightly. âThank you. Iâm feeling much better now. You guys should go back and practice.â
Ning Yun wasnât reassured at all. She kept looking back at Lin Shanchu once every few steps, but she still left in the end.
The doctor briefly asked about Lin Shanchuâs condition. Then, he prescribed her some medicine and left.
Huo Xunzhou did not say a word throughout the entire process.
Li MO was very perceptive.
Once the doctor left, he closed the door.
âMs. Lin, although your performance is very important, you still have to take care of your health. After allâ¦
âSomeone will be worried,â Li MO said as he stole a glance at Huo Xunzhou.
Lin Shanchu followed his gaze and looked at Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou sat quietly in his wheelchair. His eyes were like the distant mountains under the night sky, deep and hard to read.
âIâm very sorry⦠for what happened just now.â Lin Shanchu almost did not dare to look him in the eye.
She was ashamed.
Huo Xunzhou was such a smart person.
If he had paid more attention, he would have realized that she had actually faked her fall.
Yet, his first reaction was to show concern for her health.
He actually trusted her so much.
However, sheâ¦
She actually listened to the system and tried to date him in exchange for health points.
She used the feelings of someone who trusted her to achieve her goal.
She was indeed despicable.
Li MO felt that the atmosphere was off.
He looked at Lin Shanchu, then at Huo Xunzhou.
Why was Big Brother not saying anything?
There wasnât any need for him to be that petty, right?
Ms. Lin didnât fall onto him on purpose, after all.
As a considerate little brother, Li MO decided to take the initiative to help his big brother.
âMs. Lin, donât take this petty matter to heart. You didnât do it on purposeâ¦â
âGet out!â
Huo Xunzhou suddenly spoke, sounding unusually sharp. It was filled with a burst of anger that was about to erupt. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Li MO was so scared that he quivered.
He could not remember the last time Huo Xunzhou got that angry.
However, he always remembered that he could not afford to offend an angry Huo Xunzhou.
âAll right,â he relented.
Li MO quickly fled the scene.
However, he didnât go far. Instead, he stood guard at the door.
In the room.
Lin Shanchu looked at the tightly shut door as she cried regretful tears on the inside.
She should have escaped with Li MO just now.
Huo Xunzhouâs expression was terrifying.
He must have found out that she had faked the fall to lie to him.
As a perfect character in the spotlight, he probably wouldnât hit a woman unlike Lu Shiyuan the jerk, right?
âLin Shanchu, donât you have anything to say to me?â Huo Xunzhouâs words pulled her back to reality.
His tone was cold and indifferent.
Compared to Huo Xunzhou, Lin Shanchu felt that she was a coward.
She was not afraid of Lu Shiyuan, but when she was facing Huo Xunzhou, she could not do anything.
NO!
As the female lead, she couldnât admit defeat!
âThatâs right! I did fake that fall! I fell on you on purpose!â
In order to show off her aura, Lin Shanchu deliberately raised her chin and raised her voice.
However, the sudden increase in her countenance still revealed her guilty conscience.
Huo Xunzhou looked at her. He was stunned for three whole seconds before he lowered his head.
He had one hand pressed on his lips. His expression couldnât be seen at all. Lin Shanchu was able to see his chest that was slightly quivering.
She was perplexed.
Shouldnât he fling the door and leave out of anger after scolding her for being a scheming, evil woman?
What was Huo Xunzhou doing?
Lin Shanchu carefully probed, âAre⦠Are you all right?â
âIâm fine⦠Ahem!â Huo Xunzhou had yet to look up. He even started coughing.
Lin Shanchu felt more and more puzzled.
She got out of bed before approaching Huo Xunzhou.
Then, she crouched down and raised her head.
The first thing she saw was the manâs handsome face, which had gone red from trying to hold back his laughter to the point that he started coughing..
