Chapter 136 - 136: She Will Retract Her Claws, Act Coquettishly, and Do Anything
It was almost lunchtime when Lin Shanchu left the cemetery.
Huo Xunzhou sent her a WeChat message.
Huo Xunzhou: “Let’s have lunch together.”
Huo Xunzhou: “What about Yong Shui Pavilion?”
She hadn’t been paying attention to her phone before, so Huo Xunzhou had sent her two messages in a row.
Lin Shanchu thought about it and replied, [Let’s eat at home.]
Although she couldn’t take down Lu Shiyuan this time, Huo Xunzhou did help her a lot.
She couldn’t repay Huo Xunzhou, so she could only cook him another meal before returning to the production crew.
Huo Xunzhou replied instantly, [Okay.]
Lin Shanchu realized that her answer sounded a little weird.
She replied again, [Yes, I’ll eat at your house.]
Huo Xunzhou replied, [Oh.]
It was a very simple word, but it seemed to have a deep meaning.
Before going back, Lin Shanchu went to the mobile store.
She bought herself a new phone.
Nan Mu only found out that Lin Shanchu would continue recording after watching the news.
She called Huo Xunzhou to ask about the situation and found out that Lin Shanchu was going back to the production team tonight, so she came over for lunch.
Li MO had a disagreement with Nan Mu because of Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s marriage, so he didn’t really want him there.
“What are von doing here?” Li MO stopped Nan Mil at the kitchen door-
Nan Mu adjusted his tie and said smugly, “I’m here to discuss something with Lin Shanchu and also to bring her back to the production team. I’m her boss now, you know. ‘
Li MO heard his words and shouted into the kitchen, “Big Brother, Nan Mu
said…”
Nan Mu pushed Li MO away and smiled in a flattering manner. “Xunzhou, you’ve made so much food. You need someone to wash the dishes, right? I’m the best at washing dishes! ‘
“You’re shameless.” The corner of Li MO’s mouth twitched.
The shameless man known as Nan Mu was able to earn himself another free meal.
After dinner, he went to the kitchen to do the dishes without Huo Xunzhou urging him.
Lin Shanchu went upstairs to pack her things.
After she was done packing, she opened the door and saw Huo Xunzhou leaning against the wall.
Their eyes met.
“You want to talk to me about something?” Lin Shanchu asked first.
“Yes.” Huo Xunzhou nodded.
Why didn’t he knock on the door if that was the case?
Huo Xunzhou put his hand to his lips and cleared his throat before saying, “I have a lot of things to deal with recently. I probably won’t be recording any more shows.”
Back then, he had gone to “My Stage” to be a stage witness because the original stage witness could not go. Nan Mu spent a long time begging and convincing him to take the job.
Huo Xunzhou seemed to be very busy all the time, so it was normal that he didn’t have time to record the show.
It was just that she didn’t know what the man was busy with all day.
It felt mysterious.
After Lin Shanchu was done speaking, she grabbed her things and was about to leave.
However, Huo Xunzhou was still standing at the doorway. She couldn’t get past him.
“Is there anything else?” Lin Shanchu looked up at him.
Huo Xunzhou stared at her for two seconds.
Then, he slowly moved to the side to make way for Lin Shanchu.
[Ding! The host has less than ten days of full health left!]
The sudden system notification in her mind made Lin Shanchu freeze in her tracks.
How could it be less than ten days so soon?
“Calculate it again!”
She felt that the system was trying to trick her.
The System replied, [The health point list has been listed. Please take a look.] The list was very easy to read and listed everything clearly.
It recorded the timestamps and everything that Lin Shanchu had done during this period of time.
The system was different after the upgrade.
It was already so efficient.
The system replied, [Please recharge your health card as soon as possible to ensure your health. The host can exchange health points in the following ways: 1) Follow the plot. 2) Progress the relationship.] Of course, she was given two choices.
There was no need to choose.
Lin Shanchu turned around.
Huo Xunzhou wondered why Lin Shanchu didn’t leave. “What’s wrong?” Thud!
Lin Shanchu loosened her grip, causing the things in her hands to fall to the ground.
She slowly took a step forward.
She wasn’t far from Huo Xunzhou in the first place.
After taking a step forward, she was so close to Huo Xunzhou that she could kiss him if she leaned forward slightly.
Huo Xunzhou wasn’t unfamiliar with this situation.
His expression did not change, but he involuntarily moved his hands behind his back.
“If you’re no longer recording the show, will you still come to visit me?” Lin Shanchu’s voice was soft. She was like a cat that was acting cute in front of its owner.
Huo Xunzhou was slightly startled and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
The woman in front of him had clear eyes. She looked at him with wide eyes, making her look innocent and cute.
Huo Xunzhou felt that no man would be able to reject her.
“If I have time…
“So you won’t come to see me?” Huo Xunzhou was speechless.
“Brother Xunzhou, won’t you miss me?”
Lin Shanchu kept saying things that made her seem like she was reluctant to part ways with Huo Xunzhou, but there was no such emotion in her eyes.
She was clearly lying, but her eyes were clean and innocent.
Just like a cat.
She was the best at coaxing people.
Whenever she wanted something from Huo Xunzhou, she would retract her claws, act coquettishly, and do everything she could to achieve her goals.
She had said so much to him.
It was not because she was reluctant to part with him, nor was it because she simply wanted him to visit her.
Her goal was only to get him to visit the studio.
He didn’t know what she would request him to do next.
It was hard to get close to cats.
She still did not trust him.
Huo Xunzhou lowered his eyes slightly to hide the emotions in his eyes.
“Shanshan, if you miss me, I’ll rush over to visit you no matter how busy I am.” His lowered magnetic voice sounded affectionate.
However, if one were to pay attention to it, they would feel he was being cold and distant.
Lin Shanchu sighed inwardly.
Huo Xunzhou was a good man, but he was too smart.
Last time, in the infirmary of the production team, she had unexpectedly kissed his hand.
This time, she didn’t want to be so abrupt.
She wanted to change her approach.
Unfortunately, Huo Xunzhou saw through her thoughts.
He wasn’t up to it.
There was no other way.
It wasn’t her fault.
Lin Shanchu took a deep breath.
She raised her hand and slammed it against the wall beside Huo Xunzhou.
Her body leaned forward as she moved, and she was even closer to Huo Xunzhou. She could kiss him now if she were to raise her head.
It was a perfect posture that pinned him to the wall.
Huo Xunzhou stared back silently while leaning away from her.
He tilted his head slightly, his alluring eyes slightly narrowed. They didn’t harbor any emotions.
He was so calm that he didn’t look like someone who got pinned to the wall.
He didn’t move away or cower from her. In fact, he looked like he was submissive and could let people do whatever they wanted.
However, Lin Shanchu still felt an invisible pressure coming from him.
In the silent confrontation, Lin Shanchu decided to take the lead no matter how oppressed she felt.
Extending her life was the most important!
Lin Shanchu stood on her tiptoes and kissed Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou froze for a moment, which was a rare sight. Then, he quickly reacted by turning his face away.
Lin Shanchu’s kiss landed on Huo Xunzhou’s face.
Did he just hide?
Lin Shanchu was excited.
She tilted her head and kissed Huo Xunzhou again.
Huo Xunzhou dodged again.
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while.
In the end, Huo Xunzhou exclaimed exasperatedly, “Lin Shanchu, if you keep doing this, I’m going to be very angry at you!”
