Of course, Huo Xunzhou would not allow her to brush him off like that.
âItâs Lu Shiyuan, isnât it?â
Lin Shanchu nodded honestly.
âIt really is him,â Huo Xunzhou sneered after a long silence.
Lin Shanchu peeked at Huo Xunzhou and was caught red-handed.
Lin Shanchu came at the right time.
The dishes were all served, but Cheng Fanjing did not even touch a single piece of food.
Lin Shanchu ran to the opposite side and sat down, eating happily.
Huo Xunzhou had a lot of questions to ask Lin Shanchu, but he stopped speaking when he saw that she was eating dinner happily.
âAre you affected?â Huo Xunzhou asked after Lin Shanchu finished eating and putting down the chopsticks.
âNot at the moment.â Lin Shanchu frowned and thought for a moment before she asked, âI met Lu Shiyuan twice in a day. Is that considered an influence?â âWhy not?â Huo Xunzhou hid his intent underneath his calm expression. Lin Shanchu blinked and said, âThen⦠it can be considered an influence.â
From Huo Xunzhouâs expression, it was not hard to tell that the fact that she met Lu Shiyuan twice in a day had a huge impact on him.
Lin Shanchu sat down obediently after she finished speaking. She dared not laugh at him, nor did she dare to say anything to provoke him.
Strangely enough, Huo Xunzhou was the first to be affected when the plot restarted.
Why did it happen?
Why would Huo Xunzhouâs words and actions be controlled if he was just a major supporting character? She should be the one being controlled.
After all, she was the female lead of the entire story.
Controlling her was the only way to keep the direction of the entire story in check.
What was the use of controlling Huo Xunzhou? As long as she did not want to be with Lu Shiyuan, the ending of the story would never be the same as in the original book.
When Lin Shanchu was distracted, Huo Xunzhou kept staring at her hair.
âWhat happened to your hair?â âHmm?â
Lin Shanchu looked at him in confusion.
She had been in the crew for more than four months and had no time to trim her hair. Her bangs had grown long and now she had long hair in the middle.
âYou donât usually comb your hair like this,â Huo Xunzhou said with discretion, not knowing how to describe it.
Lin Shanchu suddenly remembered that after she hit Huo Zhuxiu with her car this morning, she parted her hair in the middle to cover her wound.
Huo Xunzhou found out about such a small detail.
âI think it looks better this way,â Lin Shanchu said as she stroked her hair calmly.
âBoth styles look good on you,â said Huo Xunzhou.
Lin Shanchu thought that she had successfully fooled him. Shortly afterwards, Huo Xunzhou asked, âHave you seen the news?â
âWhat news?â
âMy father was in a car accident.â
âI didnât pay attention⦠Itâs all because of you! I was not in the mood to watch the news!â
Lin Shanchu was a little guilty at first, but as she spoke, she became more and more confident.
Huo Xunzhou lowered his eyes and said in a tense voice, âIâm sorry.â
âItâs not your fault.â Lin Shanchu felt guilty. She obediently held his hand and comforted him. âNo matter what happens, I will always believe in you.â Huo Xunzhou looked up at her.
Lin Shanchu said with a smile, âAs long as we donât let go of each otherâs hands, our fates will be decided by ourselves.â
As long as they did not admit defeat, nothing could defeat them.
The process might be very difficult, but it did not matter.
She had experience.
She had Huo Xunzhou.
Therefore, she was not afraid at all.
Huo Xunzhouâs expression gradually looked gratified. The smile in his eyes gradually deepened as he said in a low voice, âCome over.â Lin Shanchu obediently stood up and walked over.
Huo Xunzhou pulled her into his arms and said gratifiedly, âShanshan, I didnât expect you to say such positive words to comfort someone.â
The person who once wanted to die finally had renewed hope for life.
At this moment, Huo Xunzhou felt that he finally found his way into Lin Shanchuâs heart.
Lin Shanchu was delighted when Huo Xunzhou praised her probably because she had been with him for a long time.
âBrother Xunzhou, you taught me well.â She raised her chin slightly, looking a little proud.
Even Lin Shanchu felt that her sweet talk was a little too much.
Huo Xunzhou definitely couldnât help but want to kiss her.
Lin Shanchu looked up and saw Huo Xunzhou staring at her intently.
Just as she was about to close her eyes, she felt a finger gently brushing her hair away, followed by a pleasant voice that carried a dangerous aura. âWhatâs with that wound on your head?â
Shocked, Lin Shanchu widened her eyes in disbelief and looked at him.
Just now, Huo Xunzhou clearly looked like he could not resist kissing her.
However, he looked at the wound on her head by a feint! She had never seen a man more scheming than Huo Xunzhou!
âI accidentally hurt myself!â
Lin Shanchu covered her wound, fearing that he would be able to tell that it was not an ordinary injury if he took a closer look.
Huo Xunzhou was inhumanly smart. What else couldnât he see through?
Huo Xunzhou suddenly changed the topic. âIâll take you to practice driving tomorrow?â
Lin Shanchu was not sure if Huo Xunzhou believed her.
She was restless now and kept feeling that there was a trap behind Huo Xunzhouâs words.
She struggled for a long time without making a sound.
Huo Xunzhou laughed.
âWhy arenât you saying anything?
âDo you not want to practice driving, orâ¦â
He paused on purpose, making Lin Shanchuâs heart skip a beat.
âYou got your driverâs license already?â Huo Xunzhou continued after he saw Lin Shanchuâs uneasy expression.
When he asked this question, Lin Shanchu understood that Huo Xunzhou already knew that she had gotten her driverâs license before filming ended.
âDid Brother Qi tell you?â
Although she was unwilling, whatâs done was done and there was nothing to hide now.
Huo Xunzhou replied, âNan Mu told me.â
Although Nan Mu was in Xu City, he was still concerned about Lin Shanchuâs situation.
He Xiang told Qi Cheng that Lin Shanchu had gotten her driverâs license. When Qi Cheng reported the situation to Nan Mu, he casually mentioned it.
âYouâve been plotting for so long just to do this behind my back. Tell me, should I praise you for being smart and calm, or should I be angry?â
Judging from the low pressure Huo Xunzhou was emitting, he was already angry.
Lin Shanchu lowered her head and said, âI was wrong.â
If she was going to something like this next time, she would certainly do it more discreetly so that Huo Xunzhou find out about it.
âThere wonât be a next time!â Huo Xunzhou snorted coldly as if he could sense her thoughts.
Lin Shanchu nodded obediently.
Huo Xunzhou sighed and pulled her up. He picked up his coat and led her out.
âWhere are you going?â Lin Shanchu did not know where he was going, but she followed him obediently.
Huo Xunzhouâs expression softened as he said, âTo bandage your wound properly.â
Lin Shanchu nodded and replied earnestly, âAlright..â
