Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Novel Went Rampant After Her Awakening

Chapter 25

Lu Shiyuan’s silhouette disappeared into the cemetery.

“Big Brother,” Li Mo asked Huo Xunzhou. “How did you know that Lu Shiyuan wouldn’t open the car door?”

“Only men know each other the best.” Huo Xunzhou chuckled.

Li Mo was speechless. “Huh?”

But why was he getting more and more confused?

Was he not a man?

Huo Xunzhou glanced at the surveillance camera in the corner. “Go and deal with it.”

Then, he got up and got into the car.

Li Mo put the wheelchair in the trunk and went to deal with the surveillance camera.

Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu were the only two people in the narrow car.

Lin Shanchu was the first to break the silence.

“Thank you,” she said.

When Lu Shiyuan was outside the car just now, her heart was hammering in her throat.

She hadn’t made any arrangements yet. If she were to be brought back by Lu Shiyuan just like that, she wouldn’t be able to implement her future plans.

Fortunately, Lu Shiyuan didn’t open the car door in the end.

Lu Shiyuan was a very conceited person. How could he allow his fiancée to hide in another man’s car?

Even if he had guessed that she was in the car, he would not have opened the door for the sake of his pride.

Huo Xunzhou recalled that every time they met, Lin Shanchu would always thank him.

“Are you just going to issue another verbal thank you?”

“What?”

When she heard the man’s voice, Lin Shanchu turned around to look at him.

Her eyes fell into the alluring eyes that made her heart skip a beat.

The space was already narrow, to begin with. At that moment, the air seemed to grow thinner.

“Then how do you want me to thank you?” Lin Shanchu looked away in embarrassment.

She started regretting her words the moment they fell.

This question was no different from giving the initiative to Huo Xunzhou.

“Do you know how to cook?” Huo Xunzhou asked without hesitation.

“Yeah.” The necessary skill of a female lead in a sadistic novel was to prepare meals for the trashy male lead.

“Invite me to your house for dinner,” Huo Xunzhou said.

When he was young, Lin Shanchu’s mother brought him home for a meal. contemporary romance

After that, he never had such delicious food again.

It was unforgettable.

Lin Shanchu’s eyes widened as she looked at him suspiciously. “My house?”

Huo Xunzhou did not seem like the kind of person who would make such an abrupt request.

However, he looked very serious and did not seem to be joking at all.

“Do you not want to accept that offer?” Huo Xunzhou raised an eyebrow.

Lin Shanchu slowly moved the corners of her lips in order to make herself look indifferent.

“But I don’t have a home.”

Lu Manor was not her home.

The old house of the Lin family had been demolished and rebuilt a few years ago.

She did not have a home.

Huo Xunzhou’s slightly curved lips were gently pressed down.

A nameless stone was thrown into the lake of his heart, causing ripples of pain and agony.

It was as if he could see his homeless self when he was young.

“You can go to my house.” He heard himself say this uncontrollably.

“Alright.”

The girl smiled with bright eyes.

She was like a lazy and comfortable cat.

Huo Xunzhou was dazed for a moment.

“Big Brother, it’s all settled!”

Li Mo opened the car door and reported the situation to him.

Huo Xunzhou held back the emotions in his eyes. Then, he replied, “Alright.”

Li Mo started the car, already feeling that the atmosphere in the car had changed.

He sneaked a glance at Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu through the rearview mirror and found that the two of them were looking out of the window on both sides, looking distant and cold.

…

When they arrived at Tian Zhou Media, Nan Mu happened to be in a meeting.

As soon as he heard that Huo Xunzhou was here, he quickly ended the meeting.

“Xunzhou, this show is really difficult to handle. There’s another girl who wants to quit, saying that she can’t accept the secluded training. What do you… Ms. Lin?”

Nan Mu began to complain to Huo Xunzhou as soon as he entered the room.

Halfway through his sentence, he realized that Huo Xunzhou and Li Mo weren’t the only ones in the room. Lin Shanchu was also there.

“Mr. Nan.” Lin Shanchu smiled at him.

Nan Mu’s eyes darted back and forth between Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou. “Ms. Lin, did you come here with Xunzhou?”

Lin Shanchu answered, “Mr. Huo dropped me off because he happened to be on the way here.”

“On the way here… That’s good!” Nan Mu dragged out his tone in an exaggerated fashion.

This reaction was similar to Li Mo’s attempt to create a private moment between her and Huo Xunzhou.

She didn’t know why Nan Mu was behaving like Li Mo. Both of them thought that her relationship with Huo Xunzhou was ambiguous.

However, she decided to pretend that she didn’t understand because her purpose today was to come to Nan Mu for help.

“Mr. Nan, you said last time that I could seek you out if I needed help. I’m here today to ask for your help.”

Nan Mu’s office was very large. The other end of the room was separated by a reception area.

“Sure,” he said while pointing to the reception room on the other side. “Let’s go over there and discuss the details.”

Huo Xunzhou kicked Li Mo without batting an eyelid.

Li Mo understood immediately.

“Ahem! Ahem!” He pretended to clear his throat and coughed hard. He even shot looks in Nan Mu’s direction.

Nan Mu immediately understood. “Ms. Lin, I just remembered that the place hasn’t been cleaned yet. Let’s talk here.”

“Alright.” Lin Shanchu shot a look at Huo Xunzhou thoughtfully.

Huo Xunzhou glanced at Li Mo as if nothing had happened. “If you have a cold, go see a doctor.”

Li Mo was speechless.

Nan Mu turned around and poured a glass of water for Lin Shanchu. “What’s the matter?”

Lin Shanchu said, “I want to participate in ‘My Stage’.”

‘My Stage’ was a talent show that used the seclusion method. 99 girls would be selected for training and stage assessment that would last for three months. The five most outstanding girls would be selected to form a female idol group and make their debut.

Tian Zhou Media was the biggest investor in this show.

Therefore, Nan Mu would definitely be able to arrange for her to join the show.

According to the timeline in the novel, the show had already entered the preparation stage, so she could still make it in time.

Lu Shiyuan’s last words before he left the cemetery were what Lin Shanchu had heard.

She knew that Lu Shiyuan wasn’t just joking. He would definitely find her very soon.

Therefore, before Lu Shiyuan could find her, she had to sign a contract with the production crew of ‘My Stage’.

By then, she would already be a member of the production crew. Even if Lu Shiyuan found her, he wouldn’t be able to take her away easily.

“Seriously?” Nan Mu was excited.

Lin Shanchu was confused.

Nan mu explained, “It just so happens that another girl left the show today. I was just worried that I couldn’t find another replacement. I didn’t expect you to come!”

Although Huo Xunzhou was the real boss behind Tian Zhou Media, Nan Mu was the one who made the call on the investment projects.

This included ‘My Stage’.

People who could spark viral topics like Lin Shanchu were a blessing to the production crew, seeing as they could boost the popularity of the show.

“Ms. Lin, please wait for a moment. I’ll get someone to bring the contract over now.” Nan Mu’s grin was so wide that it could split his face in half.

“Wait a minute,” Lin Shanchu said.

Nan Mu’s expression changed abruptly. “You’re not going back on your word now, are you? You can’t do that!”

Lin Shanchu just smiled. “I’d like to ask Chu Gushen to draft the contract.”

Nan Mu started to panic.

Why did she want to find Chu Gushen for such a contract?

He knew something like this was going to happen.

“Sure.”

Huo Xunzhou’s voice suddenly sounded.

“I’ll contact Lawyer Chu right now.” Li Mo picked up his phone.
