Chapter 396 - 396: Standing As Punishment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Shanchu was slightly stunned after hearing Li Mots words.

Huo Xunzhou was always meticulous when it came to her matters.

If it were not for that stupid system, she would have been the legal Mrs. Huo by now.

Lin Shanchu let out a long sigh and nodded at Li Mo. “Alright.”

As soon as the car started, Lin Shanchu’s phone vibrated.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Huo Xunzhou sent her a WeChat message.

Lin Shanchu couldn’t help but laugh when she saw the number of unread message notifications on his profile picture. Huo Xunzhou: [Have you arrived at the hospital?]

Lin Shanchu: [I just departed.]

Huo Xunzhou: [You hurt your head, so you’d better go for a checkup. Don’t mind the trouble.]

Lin Shanchu: [I don’t mind the trouble. [Well-behaved.jpg]]

Huo Xunzhou: [You are so obedient?]

Lin Shanchu: [ [Heart.jpg][Bigger Heart.jpg]]

Huo Xunzhou: [ [Pat head.jpg]]

After getting together with Lin Shanchu, Huo Xunzhou’s WeChat emoji collection had become much richer.

Li MO took Lin Shanchu to the private hospital for a checkup. After her wound was bandaged, he drove her home.

Before Lin Shanchu entered the house, she remembered that she had left Lin Suguang with Jiang Weizhu.

She mentally prepared herself before taking out her keys to open the door guiltily.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Lin Suguang packing his things.

“Uncle… What are you doing?”

Was he going to run away from home?

She just felt that Jiang Weizhu was a good person and wanted to give her a chance.

Did her uncle get angry?

“Moving house.” Lin Suguang looked back at her from the pile of clutter and asked, “Why did you come back so late? Where did you go?”

Lin Shanchu clasped her hands in front of her, standing like a primary school student.

“I went to the clubhouse and hung out with my friends for a while.”

“Oh.”

At this moment, He Xiang came out of the room with something in her hands.

“Sister Lin, you are back.”

Lin Shanchu waved at He Xiang, signaling her to ignore her.

He Xiang had never seen Lin Shanchu behave like a primary school student before. Not only did she respond to her, but she also went up to her curiously, “Sister Lin, what are you doing?”

“Standing as punishment.” Lin Shanchu felt a little embarrassed and lowered her voice.

After all, he was her biological uncle. He was so angry that he wanted to run away from home. Of course, she had to admit her mistake and stand there as punishment.

He Xiang looked puzzledly at Lin Shanchu. Then, she looked at Lin Suguang before leaving with a blank expression.

Lin Suguang felt that Lin              was getting in his way by standing beside him. “Why are you standing here? Aren’t you going to take a shower and sleep?”

Lin Shanchu frowned and squeezed out tears. Teary-eyed, she hugged his arm and said, “Uncle, I know I was wrong. Don’t go, boohoo..”

Her pitiful appearance looked real.

He Xiang walked over to take a look. After confirming that Lin Shanchu was just putting on a pitiful act, she continued to pack her things.

Lin Suguang’s heart ached when he saw that she looked like she was about to cry.

“Don’t cry. I didn’t say I was going to leave.”

“Then why did you pack up and move house?

“Didn’t you break up with Huo Xunzhou? We can no longer stay in his house after you break up with him. Let’s move out overnight. I’ve already found a house.”

Lin Shanchu moved her lips, realizing that she could not explain it to Lin Suguang.

It was outrageous to say that he was being controlled by the plot.

She did not know if her uncle could accept it.

“Go take a shower and sleep. We’ll call you when we’re done packing.” After saying that, Lin Suguang continued to pack things.

“Sister Lin…” He Xiang leaned over and asked eagerly, “Weren’t you and Teacher Huo still fine a few days ago? Why did you break up?”

Lin Shanchu felt that something was wrong, so she asked, “How did you know we were going to break up?”

He Xiang took out her phone and tapped on a photo of Huo Xunzhou and Cheng Fanjing entering Boya Hotel together.

“Teacher Huo’s dinner date with another woman is all over the news. Many tabloid reporters took photos of them and this photo has gone viral on the Internet…”

He Xiang paid attention to the latest gossips all year round. She saved this photo immediately after she saw it.

A insignificant assistant like her could not manage such a big matter. She wanted to ask Lin Shanchu about the situation when she returned home.

Lin Shanchu sneered.

Sooner or later, she would blow up that damn system.

Lin Shanchu was forced to move house overnight.

From her uncle’s point of view, there was nothing wrong with what he did. He did it all for her sake and she had no reason to reject him.

After moving house overnight, Lin Shanchu and the other two people tidied up their things, ordered takeout and went to catch up on sleep.

Lin Shanchu was woken up by the ringing of her phone. Lin Shanchu glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Nan Mu.

“President Nan?”

“Shanshan, aren’t you at home? I’ve been knocking for a long time, but no one answered the door.”

Lin Shanchu came to her senses and immediately sat up on the bed.

“You are in Capital City?”

‘Yeah, I’m here on a business trip, so I came to see you guys.”

It was over. She could no longer hide the fact that she had moved house.

She originally wanted to hide it for a while.

After all, it was bad enough that Huo Xunzhou was restricted by the plot. If he knew that she had moved house overnight, he would probably be heavy hearted.

After a short while, Nan Mu arrived at Lin Shanchu’s new home.

After Nan Mu entered the house and sat down, he carefully sized up her new home.

“The house is quite big.”

“My uncle helped me find it.”

Lin Shanchu glanced at Lin Suguang.

Nan Mu looked at Lin Suguang and said with a smile, “Mr. Lin, you and

Shanshan look alike.”

“That’s what everyone said after meeting us.” Lin Suguang knew that Nan Mu was one of the bosses at Tianzhou Media, so he treated him quite friendly.

Nan Mu nodded. The atmosphere was a little awkward. After a while, Nan Mu asked, “Shanshan, can we talk in private?”

“Alright.” Lin Shanchu got up and led Nan Mu to the balcony.

It was windy in Capital City today. Lin Shanchu and Nan Mu stood on the balcony, shivering.

“What’s going on between you and Xunzhou? The netizens commented that you two broke up. I called Xunzhou, but he didn’t pick up the phone.” “It’s not what you think it is. Huo Xunzhou and I won’t be separated.”

“But…”

“I can’t explain the details to you for the time being. Even if you don’t believe me, you should believe Huo Xunzhou, right?”

Nan Mu nodded silently.

After taking a breath of cold air, Lin Shanchu shivered and said, “Let’s go in.”

Huo Xunzhou and Cheng Fanjing’s dinner date spread like wildfire on the Internet overnight.

All the major social media accounts in the entertainment industry started to publish articles about Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s suspected breakup.

Wen Huan also called Lin Shanchu to ask what was going on between her and Huo Xunzhou.

Then, people from the Yun family called her one by one to ask about her and Huo Xunzhou.

At the end of the call, everyone in the Yun family said, “If he dares to let you down, I won’t forgive him.”

Lin Shanchu felt that Huo Xunzhou was in a worse state.

Just as she was about to call Huo Xunzhou, another call came in.

It was an unknown number this time..
