Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yun Wu was two years younger than Lin Shanchu.
Usually, no matter how cold she was in front of outsiders, she was still just a little girl.
Although they werenât the ones who pushed Xia Jinmeng, they had something to do with it.
Yun Wu grabbed Lin Shanchu arm uneasily.
Lin Shanchu gently patted Yun Wuâs hand.
She walked out of her spot and looked straight at Xia Jinmeng.
âXia Jinmeng, you do realize that you canât say whatever you want.â
Xia Jinmeng was so terrified that she didnât dare to look Lin Shanchu in the eye.
âDirector, believe me! It was really Lin Shanchu who pushed me! Sheâs afraid that Iâll take her first place, so she wants me to be injured and not be able to perform on the stage!â
âCalm down,â the director said with a complicated expression. âWe can talk it out.â
Some of the young girls nowadays were coaxed by their fans to the point that they couldnât see the reality.
Other than her fans, Xia Jinmeng had no social connections at all.
There were a lot of passers-by who followed Lin Shanchu.
There were netizens who had been following the love triangle of Lin Shanchu, Lu Shiyuan, and Tang Qidai for a long time.
There were also Tang Qidaiâs haters.
The remaining relationship fans of Lu Shiyuan and Lin Shanchu were still around.
Finally, there were many fans who followed Ji Yuan to this show todayâ¦
In any case, all kinds of strange things could attract attention.
Xia Jinmeng wasnât listening to anything right now.
âJust because her fiancé sponsored the show, youâre all biased toward her?â Lin Shanchuâs ears were buzzing with Xia Jinmengâs shrieking voice. She frowned and said impatiently, âIn that case, letâs call the police.â
Xia Jinmengâs expression changed as she turned to look at the director.
âOkay.â The director nodded in agreement. âWeâll call the police.â
Xia Jinmeng was one of the key students on the list, so the production crew had some understanding of her.
In this industry, whether it was in front of the stage or behind the scenes, one could not survive if they werenât smart.
The people in the production crew werenât blind. Naturally, they noticed all of Xia Jinmengâs actions.
If she insisted on making a scene, the production crew wouldnât let her have her way.
âJinmeng, do you agree to call the police?â the director asked. Xia Jinmeng wilted immediately as if she was deflated balloon.
âItâs not a big deal. Letâs forget it.â
After this incident, she also realized that Lin Shanchu was not as stupid as
Tang Qidai had said.
On the contrary, Lin Shanchu was very cunning.
There were no surveillance cameras at the place where she had an accident.
Even if she insisted that Lin Shanchu was the one who pushed her, Lin Shanchu should have already thought of a way to escape.
In short, Xia Jinmeng wouldnât get anything out of it even if she called the police.
However, she would not let Lin Shanchu off just like that!
The director didnât say anything more. He comforted Xia Jinmeng briefly before leaving.
Lin Shanchu followed the director out.
When she reached the door, she could vaguely hear Xia Jinmeng talking to someone inside.
Just as she was about to turn back to look, the director called her to the side.
Lin Shanchu only had time to see half of the manâs side profile from the half-closed door of the ward.
It was a staff member of the production crew.
Did Xia Jinmeng know someone from the production crew?
After the director finished speaking, he noticed that Lin Shanchu did not respond for a long time. âLin Shanchu, Iâm talking to you. Are you listening?â âYes.â Lin Shanchu replied half-heartedly. âWhat did you just say?
The director repeated in irritation, âWhereâs my recording pen?â
The young girl had borrowed a recording pen from him two days ago, claiming that she wanted to record songs and practice hard.
âHow can a prominent director like you be so stingy?â The recording pen that the director had lent her was quite old. She didnât expect him to want it back.
The director quickly shook his head. âI donât want you to return it. That recording pen is too old, so itâs not working well. I wanted to get you a new one.â
Lin Shanchu rejected his good intentions. âThank you. The old one can be used.â
She left after she finished speaking.
The director touched the top of his head, which was gradually thinning because of the ratings. He thought with some relief that Lin Shanchu was a nice girl who was thrifty and simplistic.
Most importantly, she could increase the ratings with just her presence.
âYou even brought a recording pen with you?â Yun Wu asked her on the way back.
âYes.â
Lin Shanchu stopped in her tracks when she heard this. She took the recording pen out of her pocket and deleted all of the recordings.
âWhy did you delete all of them?â Yun Wu was surprised.
âI borrowed it to record songs, so Iâm clearing the memory.â
Lin Shanchu had originally thought that she could record something useful when she met Xia Jinmeng with the recording pen.
Unfortunately, Xia Jinmeng was too disappointing.
All Lin Shanchu did was touch Xia Jinmengâs face and neck, and she got so scared that she fell down the stairs.
In the ward.
âJiang Ziyu.â
Xia Jinmeng looked at the man with the work pass in front of her after calling out his name. âI havenât seen you for so many years. Youâve changed a lot.â
âIs there anything you want me to tell Daidai?â Jiang Ziyu looked up and smiled at her.
âBut one thing hasnât changed,â Xia Jinmeng said sarcastically. âYouâre still the same as before. All you talk about is Daidai.â
Jiang Ziyu smiled, but he didnât speak.
He had a very neat crew cut and worked in the studio all year round. His skin was a little abnormally pale, and his facial features were quite plain. When he smiled, he looked gentle and honest.
Seeing this, Xia Jinmeng decided to cut to the chase without saying much. âI want to talk to Daidai on the phone.â Tang Qidai was really amazing.
She was able to coax every man around her.
Whether it was Lu Shiyuan or Jiang Ziyu, they were both devoted to her.
Although Xia Jinmeng didnât want to admit it, Lin Shanchu was right about one thing.
In terms of coaxing men, she was indeed not as good as Tang Qidai.
âAll right.â Jiang Ziyu took out his phone and called Tang Qidai.
The news of Xia Jinmengâs injury spread among the members.
Many members went to the infirmary to visit Xia Jinmeng.
Wen Tongtong didnât go.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the training room, Wen Tongtong lowered her voice and asked Lin Shanchu, âDid you do it?â Lin Shanchuâs physical condition today was bad.
After practicing for a while, she had to lie on the floor to rest for a while. At the moment, she was resting on the ground with her eyes closed.
âWhat?â She did not even open her eyes.
âYou know what Iâm talking about,â Wen Tongtong said.
Lin Shanchu laughed before asking, âWhy would I do that? Whatâs the point?â
Wen Tongtong was stumped.
Lin Shanchu was right.
What would Lin Shanchu have to gain by pushing Xia Jinmeng downstairs?
Lin Shanchu was already in the first place, so there was no reason for her to do this.
However, she still had a vague feeling that this matter was related to Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu only opened her eyes after Wen Tongtong left.
Her body started to hurt again.
This body really acted up whenever it wanted to. It was as if it was toying around with her.
âIdiot.â
She released the blocked handyman system in her mind.
Huo Xunzhou wasnât on the show today.
She had to think of a way to get some health points to sustain her life.
Just as she unblocked the system, a mechanical notification sounded in her mind.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the romantic scandal mission. The health card has been issued and can be activated at any time.]
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
She was in the training room, so how was it possible for the scandal to spread?
âWhatâs going on?â Lin Shanchu was surprised.
She didnât know what the system was doing, but it made a lot of noise. In the end, it only had time to say one sentence. [Huo Xunzhou has comeâ¦. ]
