Huo Xunzhou stood up and poured Lin Shanchu a glass of water.
After drinking the glass of water in her hand, Lin Shanchu looked up and noticed that Huo Xunzhou was still staring at her.
Lin Shanchu blinked as she asked, âWhy are you looking at me like that?â
Huo Xunzhou chuckled without a word, took the glass of water from her hand and put it aside. Then, he whispered, âShanshan, you really didnât go back on you word.â
Lin Shanchu tilted her head in confusion.
Huo Xunzhou pulled her into his arms with a smile. His deep voice sounded gentle and bewitching.
âHave you forgotten what you said?â Lin Shanchu thought about it carefully.
Oh, she remembered it.
When she previously talked to Huo Xunzhou about her family, she said that she would dote on him.
Now, he was moved when she came overnight just to see him.
He was too easily satisfied.
Lin Shanchu lifted her head from his embrace and looked at him. âThird Brother, canât you be more ambitious?â
Huo Xunzhou pecked her lightly on the lips.
âIâm very ambitious.â
As he spoke, he tightened his arms around her waist.
The person whom he held in his arms was what he desired.
He held her hand and walked over.
She was willing to stand by his side and walk side by side with him.
He was very lucky.
He opened his heart and finally made her stay.
Lin Shanchu did not want to ruin this intimate atmosphere.
However, she had not eaten dinner. She was so hungry that her stomach began to growl.
Huo Xunzhou asked her, âYou didnât have dinner? Lin Shanchu rubbed her belly and nodded pitifully. âYeah.â Huo Xunzhou rubbed her flat stomach in amusement.
âWait here.â
When he got up, he couldnât help but pat her head again.
Whenever he saw Lin Shanchu now, he felt that she was extremely cute and wanted to touch and hug her.
Lin Shanchu followed Huo Xunzhou into the kitchen.
Huo Xunzhou often stayed in this house when he had to film a few years ago, so it was well-equipped.
Huo Xunzhou was quite busy recently and seldom cooked, but he had prepared some ingredients in the fridge.
He stood in front of the fridge and rummaged for a long time. Finally, he found two steaks that were still within the shelf life. He turned to ask Lin Shanchu for her opinion.
âDo you want to eat steak?â âAlright!â
Lin Shanchu nodded vigorously.
While Huo Xunzhou was frying the steak, Lin Shanchu stood beside him and chatted with him.
âWhere did Li MO go?â
âHe went out to run errands.â
Lin Shanchuâs attention was on the steak on the pan, so she did not notice Huo Xunzhouâs pause.
âHe still has to go out to run errands in the middle of the night?â
âHe has nothing better to do.â
Speechless, she felt that he was like a black-hearted boss.
After Huo Xunzhou finished frying the steak, Lin Shanchu brought it to the table and placed a knife and fork next to it.
After she was done, she turned around and saw Huo Xunzhou leaning against the kitchen door, looking at her.
âDonât you think thereâs still something missing on this table?â
âWhatâs missing?
Huo Xunzhou placed his hands behind his back and slowly walked toward her.
He was so smart, so he definitely knew what she was talking about.
He was deliberately playing dumb with her.
As if thinking of something, Lin Shanchu turned to look behind him and asked, âDid you take something?â
Huo Xunzhou did not hide it anymore and stretched out his hands. He held a bottle of red wine in his left hand and two wine glasses in his right hand.
âBrother Xunzhou, you understand me the best.â Lin Shanchu praised him sweetly and took the items from his hands.
Huo Xunzhou had already opened the red wine glass. After laying out the glasses, Lin Shanchu poured the wine into one glass.
When the red wine reached one-third of the glass, Huo Xunzhou took the bottle from Lin Shanchuâs hand.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs enough.â
âItâs not enough.â
Huo Xunzhou raised an eyebrow.
Lin Shanchu pursed her lips. âIf you say itâs enough, then itâs enough.â She had specially come to comfort him, so she would just let him have his own way.
Before dinner, Huo Xunzhou called Li Mo.
âDonât come back tonight.â
After hanging up the phone, she saw Lin Shanchu lying on the table and laughing non-stop.
âWhat are you laughing at?â
âIt looks like weâre having an affair.â
Huo Xunzhouâs face darkened. Then, he picked up the glass and downed half of it in one gulp.
Originally, they were just a little bit away from getting their marriage certificate.
Lin Shanchu looked at his angry face and felt that he was cute and pitiful, so she coaxed him gently. âDonât be angry anymore. All problems will be solved.â
Huo Xunzhou raised his glass and clinked glasses with her.
After that, Lin Shanchu told Huo Xunzhou about the guesses she had confirmed with Lu Shiyuan while eating dinner.
âDid you see Lu Shiyuan again last night?â Huo Xunzhou asked softly after listening to her words.
âYeah.â Lin Shanchu corrected him. âThatâs not the point.â
Huo Xunzhou snorted. âOh.â
If he could snatch Lu Shiyuanâs chance of appearance once, he could snatch it for the second time and third time.
Lu Shiyuan wanted the plot to reach the ending in the original book, but there was no way it would happen!
Lin Shanchu thought of something else.
âWhen you went to the clubhouse to help me last night, werenât you restricted by the plot?â
âI was.â
âThen how did manage to go over and help me?â
After a pause, Huo Xunzhou replied, âI thought of going over, so I just walked over.â
Lin Shanchuâs eyes brightened as she smiled.
âAs expected, one can resist the plot as long as their will is firm enough.â Huo Xunzhou did not say anything and just laughed along.
After dinner, Huo Xunzhou cleaned up the cutlery and went to get his coat and car keys.
âLetâs go.â
Lin Shanchu was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching television. She looked at Huo Xunzhou with a confused expression upon hearing his words.
âWhere are we going?â âIâll take you home.â
Lin Shanchu was confused.
Lin Shanchu asked him seriously, âDidnât you tell Li MO not to come back tonight?â
Didnât he tell not to come back tonight so that she could stay the night?
Huo Xunzhouâs Adamâs apple bobbed. When he spoke again, his tone was a little hesitant. âThen⦠Iâll take you home when I go to the company tomorrow morning. â
Lin Shanchu nodded her head vigorously.
When they went upstairs to sleep, Huo Xunzhou led Lin Shanchu straight to the guest room.
âIâll sleep next door. Call me if you need anything.â
âOhâ¦â
Lin Shanchu drawled lazily to express her dissatisfaction with Huo Xunzhouâs arrangement.
Huo Xunzhou turned around and left as if he had not noticed her dissatisfaction.
When he reached the door and closed it, he saw Lin Shanchu sitting by the bed with a pillow in her arms and looking at him aggrievedly with big, clear eyes.
Huo Xunzhouâs legs gave out slightly.
He held the door frame with one hand. The struggle in his eyes only lasted for three seconds before he compromised and said, âCome here.â
Lin Shanchu immediately threw down the pillow and ran towards him with a smile.
When they arrived at Huo Xunzhouâs room, Lin Shanchu was like a little animal marking its territory. She threw off her slippers and jumped onto Huo Xunzhouâs bed, rolling around.
After that, she rolled out of bed and shouted, âIâm going to take a shower!â
âIâll help youâ¦â
Before Huo Xunzhou could finish his sentence, Lin Shanchu already closed the bathroom door.
He felt that his girlfriend showed a remarkable result after pumping iron for the past few months. Her movements were multiple times more agile than before..
