Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Huo Xunzhou had known Lin Shanchu longer than Yunwu did.
Naturally, he had noticed the abnormality in Lin Shanchuâs body earlier than Yun Wu did.
Moreover, they first met in the hospital.
He had always known that she was sick.
However, she usually disguised herself very well. If it was not for the discomfort, Yun Wu Wu would not have noticed her condition.
Judging from Lin Shanchuâs reaction, he could tell that she was well aware of her bodyâs condition.
Therefore, Huo Xunzhou was certain that Lin Shanchu had gone to the hospital for a checkup.
He had asked Li MO to check Lin Shanchul s medical records at the hospital where she was previously hospitalized.
However, the medical records only stated that Lin Shanchu was injured in a fall.
After that, he asked Li MO to check all the hospitals in Xu City, but he never found her medical records.
âI still canât find anything.â
Speaking of this, Li MO couldnât help but sigh.
âBig Brother, I keep feeling that this matter is very strange! Miss Lin must have gone to the hospital for a check-up, but Iâve searched every hospital in Xu City like looking for a needle in a haystack for the past two months, but I couldnât find anything.â
The more Li MO spoke, the more incomprehensible he felt. âIâve even checked
all tne community nospltalsâ. â
Huo Xunzhou thought for a moment and said, âExpand the scope then.â
âAlright, Iâll check the surrounding cities as well.â Li MO did not believe this impossible matter. He had to settle this matter no matter what.
The next morning, Lin Shanchu received a call from Nan Mu.
âIâm free this morning, so Iâll come to your house to talk about your work.â It was a poorly constructed lie.
Nan Mu was basically in charge of the daily affairs of Tianzhou media and was very busy every day.
It would be somewhat believable if he said that he had made time to come over.
However, Lin Shanchu did not expose him. After all, Nan Mu had cooperated with her and helped her a lot.
âAlright.â
Nan Mu, who had been worried that he would not be able to fool Lin Shanchu, let out a sigh of relief at her words.
âDonât worry, we wonât stay long. Weâll leave after lunch.â He rarely visited her, so he had to freeload a meal before leaving.
Since Nan Mu had spilled the beans, Lin Shanchu did not hold back either.
âIâll come with my assistant.â Nan Mu forced a laugh.
After he finished speaking, he quickly hung up the phone.
An hour later, Lin Shanchu opened the door and saw three men outside. Finally, her gaze fell on Nan Mu.
âWhen did President Huo become your assistant?â Lin Shanchu asked in a sincere tone as she opened her eyes wide and looked at him.
Nan Mu started to make things up. âMy assistant has business to attend to all of a sudden.â
âWhy is Third Brother here?â Yun Wu poked her head out from behind Lin Shanchu.
âYun Wu, you are here too,â Nan Mu spoke as he walked in with a smile.
Lin Shanchu pursed her lips and turned to walk inside.
Since they were already here, she could not possibly kick them out.
Talking about work was just a cover-up. Nan Mu asked Lin Shanchu directly, âShanshan, what are we going to have for lunch?â
Since he was already here, of course he would have a big meal before leaving.
Lin Shanchu turned around and asked Yunwu. âWhat do you want to eat?â Yunwu wanted to eat everything.
She frowned and thought for a long time, but she still felt that it was difficult to make a choice.
Huo Xunzhou said softly, âYou should ask her what she doesnât eat.â
Yun Wu immediately looked up and said, âI donât eat onions.â
Li MO, who had been silent after entering the house, also came over and said eagerly, âMiss Lin, Iâm not picky. I eat anything.â
Nan Mu echoed, âMe too, me too!â
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
She felt that these three men were purely here to freeload lunch.
Their enthusiastic looks of freeloading lunch was almost on par with Yun Wu.
Nan Mu enthusiastically drove out and bought a lot of groceries.
He Xiang and Yun Wu went into the kitchen to help Lin Shanchu.
Nan Mu and Huo Xunzhou were chatting while Li MO wandered around the kitchen from time to time.
When Nan Mu went out to answer a call, Li MO whispered, âBig Brother, I think
Miss Lin is quite normal and energetic. She doesnât seem to be seriously ill.â
Huo Xunzhou glanced at him.
Li MO realized that he sounded like he was scolding Lin Shanchu.
He quickly changed his tune. âWhat I mean is she doesnât look like a patient. Is it possible that sheâs not sick?â
âImpossible.â Huo Xunzhou sounded very certain.
âOh.â If Huo Xunzhou said that Lin Shanchu was sick, then she must be sick. It must be his own problem that he could not find the medical records.
He had to investigate a few more hospitals later.
While eating lunch, Lin Shanchu noticed that Li MO was looking at her.
Was there a problem with the dishes?
Lin Shanchu tasted the dish that Li MO had eaten the most.
There was no problem with the taste.
When Li MO noticed Lin Shanchuâs gaze, he forced a smile to conceal his intention. âMiss Lin, you have a good appetite.â
âI think Iâm much inferior to you.â If she remembered correctly, this was Li Moâs third bowl of rice.
Li MO, who was about to get up for the fourth bowl of rice, said, ââ¦Actually, Iâm already full. Iâll just eat a little more.â
Li MO silently got up and went to serve a big bowl of rice.
It was really⦠âa little moreâ.
After lunch, it was the same old routine.
Nan Mu and Li MO cleaned up the kitchen and washed the dishes.
âWhat are you and Xunzhou doing here today?â Huo Xunzhou had called Nan Mu in the middle of the night to tell him that he wanted to Lin Shanchuâs house today and asked him to make up an excuse to bring them over.
âTo visit Miss Lin.â Since Huo Xunzhou did not tell Nan Mu that Lin Shanchu might be sick, he naturally could not tell him the truth. Puzzled, Nan Mu said, âSheâs fine. Why do you have to visit her?â
Li MO asked, âWhy do you care?â
Nan Mu was speechless.
In the living room, He Xiang was talking to Lin Shanchu about the filming in the afternoon.
Yun Wu quietly called Huo Xunzhou to the balcony.
She cautiously closed the balcony door and called out fawningly, âThird Brother. â
She had guessed that Huo Xunzhou would not ignore Lin Shanchuâs affairs, but she did not expect him to come to Lin Shanchuâs house early in the morning.
âShe doesnât look out of the ordinary today,â Huo Xunzhou said slowly. He had been observing Lin Shanchu from the moment he entered the house.
She looked normal from walking to talking to eating.
âItâs a little strange. Her condition today is much better than yesterday.â Yun Wu nodded in agreement.
Yun Wu stole a glance at Huo Xunzhou and coaxed him with flattery.
âThird Brother, it might be because you are here. Shanshan is in a good mood, so her condition has become better.â
Huo Xunzhou looked up at her emotionlessly, obviously not buying it.
Yun Wu thought for a moment before she asked, âWhy donât we think of a way to get Shanshan to go to the hospital for a checkup?â âShe wonât go, unless she is knocked unconscious and taken to the hospital.â
âThenâ¦â Yun Wu could not think of a solution either.
Huo Xunzhou was lost in thoughts.
Yun Wuâs words just now reminded him.
At the very beginning when he and Lin Shanchu were not that close, she had tried to get close to him for some reason. Later on, she started to do things to himâ¦
Yes, something intimate.
After that, she started to distance herself from him. Thinking of this, Huo Xunzhou thought of something else..
