Lin Shanchu followed Nan Mu to Tianzhou Media.

From a distance, Lin Shanchu spotted two individuals waiting at the entrance.

It was a man and a woman, but their faces were unclear.

As they got closer, Lin Shanchu recognized the man as Qi Cheng, Jing Ming’s former manager.

“Qi Cheng?”

“Miss Lin.”

Qi Cheng bowed slightly toward her.

Nan Mu approached them and said, “Since you guys know each other, I’m not required to introduce you two again.”

“Qi Cheng is the manager you found for me?” Lin Shanchu asked. ‘Yeap.” Nan Mu asked for her opinion, “What do you think?”

Lin Shanchu turned to look at Qi Cheng, “Why did you suddenly decide to become a manager again?

Qi Cheng was actually a very capable manager.

However, after Jing Ming’s incident, he basically withdrew from the entertainment industry and stopped representing artists.

“One cannot drift aimlessly forever. One has to move forward eventually,” Qi Cheng was smiling but there was a hint of sadness in his tone.

The incident that happened to Jing Ming weighed heavily on his heart.

People often advise to focus on the future.

But no one mentions how difficult it is to let go of the past.

Lin Shanchu reached out her hand to Qi Cheng, “It’s an honor to work with you.”

Qi Cheng was still struggling to come to terms with Jing Ming’s death.

If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t have shown up at Tianzhou Media.

Qi Cheng also wants to settle the score with Lu Shiyuan, just like Lin Shanchu.

This would make it easier for her to handle things in the future.

After talking to Qi Cheng, Lin Shanchu turned to look at the girl standing beside them.

The girl had a natural look. She had no makeup on and wore a pair of black-framed glasses. Although she appeared quite young, she held a serious demeanor.

She took the initiative to introduce herself, “Hello, Miss Lin. My name is He Xiang.”

“I was also the one who got this assistant for you,” Nan Mu added.

Nan Mu noticed that Lin Shanchu kept staring at He Xiang and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“He Kiang?” Lin Shanchu approached her, “Have I seen you somewhere before?”

He Xiang nervously bit her lip, “I used to be Tang Qidai’s assistant.”

Nan Mu frowned upon hearing this, “Why didn’t you include that in your resume?”

Nan Mu saw that He Xiang was honest and reliable, so he wanted to reserve her as Lin Shanchu’s assistant.

If he had known that He Xiang used to be Tang Qidai’s assistant, he wouldn’t have kept her.

“If I had written it, you wouldn’t have chosen me,” He Xiang whispered. “And do you think we will now that we know…” Nan Mu sneered.

Lin Shanchu glanced at Nan Mu, signaling him to stop talking.

Nan Mu was so shocked by Lin Shanchu’s glance that he instinctively shut up.

The moment he realized how embarrassing he looked, he realized that everyone’s attention wasn’t on him in the first place. So, he could only rub his nose awkwardly and pretend that nothing had happened.

“Why did you leave Tang Qidai?” Lin Shanchu asked He Xiang.

He Xiang pushed her bangs aside, revealing a scar about the length of a thumb.

Then, she pulled down her shirt collar to reveal her shoulders and rolled up her sleeves.

“These are all from Tang Qidai’s beatings. ”

The scars plastered all over her body appeared relatively fresh as if they were recent injuries.

Nan Mu and Qi Cheng had been averting their eyes as she partially undressed to avoid arousing any suspicion towards the situation. But upon hearing what she said, they turned their heads in disbelief.

Only Lin Shanchu remained calm.

After learning about Tang Qidai’s childhood from Xia Jinmeng, she already had a good understanding of Tang Qidai’s character.

A person who could cruelly kill small animals at the age of five and calmly cover up the evidence without so much as batting an eyelid would naturally do such things when they grew up.

Just like how she did earlier, Lin Shanchu extended her hand to He Xiang.

“It’s a pleasure working with you.”

He Xiang hesitated for two seconds before she finally smiled and reached out to shake her hand, “Thank you, Miss Lin.”

After Tang Qidai beat her that night, she sent He Xiang to a private hospital and paid her off before sending her back to her hometown.

After recovering from her injuries, she proceeded to return to her hometown.

However, she was not willing to accept her fate.

How was it that Tang Qidai, who committed a crime, was still standing proudly under the spotlight, while she, the victim, was forced to hide?

How was this possible?

After returning to Xu City, she tried to go back to her previous line of work, but no artist was willing to take her on.

She knew that Tang Qidai must be behind this.

So, He Xiang joined Tianzhou Media with an open-minded attitude.

Tianzhou Media had no prior business dealings with the Lu Corporation, so Tang Qidai wouldn’t be able to get her hands on her here.

She intentionally concealed her work experience with Tang Qidai and presented herself as a young, honest girl, which led to her being retained.

What she didn’t expect was to be assigned as Lin Shanchu’s assistant and recognized by her immediately.

If Lin Shanchu didn’t want her, she would have no choice but to return to her hometown.

Now that Lin Shanchu chose to let her stay, Nan Mu couldn’t say much either.

Everyone was busy, so they didn’t go out to eat.

They delivered takeout to the office and everyone had their meals while chatting.

After dinner, Nan Mu personally escorted Lin Shanchu to the house he had arranged for her in advance.

“From now on, you can communicate with your manager and assistant about your upcoming schedules. I’ll take my leave now. If anything, just call.” Nan Mu had barely even entered the door and he was already about to leave.

“Thank you.”

“It’s not for free.”

Nan Mu shot her the smile of a sly businessman and turned around to run.

He bolted so quickly that he disappeared in the blink of an eye. He was worried that he would get beaten up if he ran any slower.

“Sister Lin, I’ve already tidied up the house. Look…”

He Xiang’s voice came from behind.

Nan Mu had arranged for her to come and tidy up the house a few days ago, so most of the daily necessities had already been bought. The only thing she had left to buy was Lin Shanchu’s personal items.

“I’ll look at it later,” Lin Shanchu wasn’t in the mood to talk to He Xiang about this.

She walked up to Qi Cheng and asked, “I want to take a look at my schedule.”

Qi Cheng paused for a moment, then took out his phone with a complicated expression and handed it over to Lin Shanchu, showing her the schedule. “Really? There’s so many…” Lin Shanchu muttered to herself.

She had only read one page of it and could already feel her fists clenching onto the phone harder and harder.

That greedy profiteer!

He had arranged over ten endorsements for her in one day.

Advertisement gigs, interviews… All of them were back to back from each other. He even planned for her to be eating and sleeping in the car!

No wonder Nan Mu agreed so easily when she said she wanted to be eliminated from ‘My Stage’.

It turns out he was just waiting for her here!

Isn’t Huo Xunzhou controlling him at all?

Qi Cheng watched as Lin Shanchu’s grip on his phone tightened and he said, cautiously, “Miss Lin… The phone is innocent…”

Lin Shanchu stuffed the phone back into Qi Cheng’s hands and took out her own phone to call Nan Mu.

“Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable…” That cunning jerk dares to make a move but doesn’t dare to face the consequences!

He doesn’t even answer the phone!

Meanwhile on Nan Mu’s side…

Nan Mu quickly left the neighborhood and fled the scene.

When he returned from Tianzhou Media, Huo Xunzhou was already waiting for him in his office.

“You were late. I just came from sending Lin Shanchu off.”

Nan Mu tossed his car keys on the desk and sat down lazily.

Huo Xunzhou continued to flip through the documents in hand as if he hadn’t heard anything.

Seeing that Huo Xunzhou didn’t react, Nan Mu asked curiously, “Did you guys quarrel again?”
