When Huo Xunzhou got home, he took out his phone and scrolled through his contacts several times.
In the end, he realized that the people around him were all single.
None of them had ever been married.
He could only ask his uncle and aunt.
However, it had been years since his uncle and aunt got their marriage certificate. It was no longer the same as it used to be, right?
Huo Xunzhou thought for a while and turned on the web browser.
He searched online for questions like âthe process of getting a marriage certificateâ and âwhat to pay attention to when getting a marriage certificateâ until midnight.
Even so, he woke up early the next morning.
He looked at the time. It was only 6:00 a.m.
He could not fall asleep, so he got up and walked around the room.
Li MO got up to go to the bathroom. He was shocked to see Huo Xunzhou pacing around the living room.
âBig Brother? What are you doing?â
âI canât sleep, so Iâm having a walk,â Huo Xunzhou said seriously.
Li MO was confused.
He felt that Huo Xunzhou was acting a little strange.
Could it be that Huo Xunzhou was still excited because Lin Shanchu had brought flowers and picked him up from work yesterday?
That was not the caseâ¦
Huo Xunzhou saw that Li MO was still standing there, so he beckoned him over.
âWhat is it?â Li MO saw Huo Xunzhouâs serious expression and thought that he had something important to tell him, so he walked over nervously.
Huo Xunzhou suddenly took him to the walk-in closet.
âWhich one do you think is the best?â Huo Xunzhou asked Li MO as he opened the wardrobe doors one by one.
As a straight man, Li MO was usually most interested in fighting and shipping Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu.
He was stumped by this kind of question.
Moreover, Huo Xunzhouâs wardrobe was full of shirts, suits and coats. They did not look any different.
âBig Brother, you look good in anything.â Li MO scratched his head after thinking for a while.
Huo Xunzhou also felt that this question was a little difficult for Li Mo.
Therefore, he changed his question.
âWhich outfit do you think Shanshan would like me to wear?â
âSister-in-law? Sister-in-law likes you as a person. She probably thinks that you look good in whatever you wear.â
Huo Xunzhou began to reflect on why he asked Li MO such a question.
âYou can leave.â He waved his hand to signal Li MO to leave.
After taking two steps outside, Li MO turned around and asked Huo Xunzhou, âBig Brother, letâs go to the office early today. We can leave at 7:30 a.m. after breakfast.â
If they set off at 7:30 a.m., they would arrive at the company at 8:00 a.m. Huo Xunzhou said, âI have something to do. Iâll go to the office later.â
âWhatâs the matter?â Li MO was stunned.
Huo Xunzhou went to Huo Corporation for his first day of work yesterday, and he was going to be late today?
Huo Xunzhou kept quiet and just waved his hand, indicating that he would not tell him.
Li MO had no choice but to leave.
Huo Xunzhou spent a long time choosing clothes, but he still could not decide which one to wear.
After thinking for a moment, he turned on WeChat and found Yun Wuâs contact. Then, he made a video call to her.
The video call connected.
âThird Brother?â
As an idol who was on the rise in her career, Yun Wu was busy every day. At this moment, she was already on her way to the event venue.
She woke up too early, so she could only catch up on sleep in the car.
However, Huo Xunzhouâs video call came through as soon as she fell asleep.
She opened her eyes a little as she asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
âWhich one do you think looks good?â
âWhat?â
Yun Wu opened her eyes wide and saw an entire row of clothes.
Huo Xunzhouâs requirements for clothes had always been neat and tidy, and he was not that particular.
But today, he specially started a video call to ask her which one looked better!
Yun Wu woke up immediately.
âThird Brother, are you getting married? Why are you making it so solemn?â
Huo Xunzhou cleared his throat and said, âYou just need to tell me which one looks good.â
Yun Wu was quick-witted.
If Huo Xunzhou was going to attend an important event, he could have asked Lin Shanchu to help him choose the clothesâ¦
âDonât tell me youâre really getting married with Shanshan behind my back!â Yun Wuâs voice made the manager and assistant in the car look over.
The manager and assistant were also employees of Tianzhou Media. Right after they heard that Huo Xunzhou was the one who had video called Yun Wu, so they had been listening attentively to their conversation.
As a behind-the-scenes member of the industry, they had been on the frontlines for gossips.
Yesterday, they secretly discussed whether Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou would break up.
The manager sneakily mouthed the words to ask Yun Wu, âBoss is getting married?â
Huo Xunzhou knew that he could not hide it from Yun Wu, so he admitted it. âYes, Iâm going to get the marriage certificate. I still need to prepare for the wedding.â
âI donât care what you wear!â Yun Wu screamed, âYou can wear whatever you want! Itâs fine if you donât want to wear anything!â
Yun Wu hung up the video call after saying that.
In the end, Lin Shanchu was tricked into getting married to her scheming third brother!
Her manager and assistant leaned over.
âPresident Huo and Lin Shanchu are getting married?â
âIs it true? I heard him say that heâs going to get the marriage certificate?â
Although Yun Wu hated Huo Xunzhou for giving her too much work, he was still her third brother. They were family after all. Yun Wu reached out and made a hush gesture with her lips.
âKeep it a secret.â
The manager and assistant nodded.
At 8:00 a.m., Huo Xunzhou set off with his car keys. He dialed Lin Shanchuâs number when he got into the car.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âShanshan, Iâm leaving.â
âSo early?â
It was only a 40-minute drive from Huo Xunzhouâs place to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
âThereâs a traffic jam on the road.â Huo Xunzhou forced out an excuse to hide his eagerness.
âOh, Iâll depart then.â Lin Shanchu did not expose him.
âIâll wait for you at the entrance. Be careful,â Huo Xunzhou reminded her again before hanging up the phone.
âI know.â
Lin Shanchu dragged out her voice and coquettishly said goodbye to Huo Xunzhou before hanging up the phone.
As soon as the call ended, the smile on her face disappeared.
She rolled down the car window.
Huo Corporation building was diagonally opposite her, and a black car was slowly driving over from the other side of the intersection.
Her gaze fell on the license plate.
Thatâs right, it was Huo Zhuxiuâs car.
When Huo Zhuxiu asked her out for dinner, she already memorized his car plate number.
Lin Shanchu adjusted her mask and cap while facing the rearview mirror. After confirming that Wen Huan might not be able to recognize her even with the camera, she stepped on the accelerator and slammed into Huo Zhuxiuâs car.
Wham!
A loud bang was heard.
The scene became chaotic.
The security guards swarmed out of the building.
Lin Shanchu was momentarily dizzy from the impact. When she finally regained her senses, she felt a warm liquid seeping out of her forehead.
She reached out and felt the blood on her hand.
âPresident Huo!â
In the opposite car, the driver got out of the car and opened the backseat door before nervously asking about Huo Zhuxiuâs condition.
Lin Shanchu stared at them carefully for a moment. Then, she smiled happily.
It seemed that Huo Zhuxiu did not put on his seatbelt.
He would not die just like that, would he?
It would felt like sweet revenge if he did..
