Chapter 186 - 186: Can ‘t Be This Lucky All The Time
This time, Huo Xunzhou finally paid attention to him.
However, he was only interested in asking for information and did not mention Lin Shanchu.
“Have you read this info about Jiang Ziyu?” Huo Xunzhou raised the document in his hand.
Nan Mu checked the details.
The contents of the document were about Jiang Ziyu’s interpersonal relationships.
Since Huo Xunzhou wasn’t rushing him for it, Nan Mu didn’t personally check the documents. He instructed someone else to check and placed them here, waiting to be handed over to Huo Xunzhou once he had the time.
“No?” Nan Mu noticed Huo Xunzhou’s serious expression and asked, “Is there a problem with it?”
“Is this the only document?” Huo Xunzhou asked again.
“Yes,” Jiang Ziyu wasn’t a VIP or anything, so Nan Mu didn’t bother keeping a
copy.
Huo Xunzhou didn’t say anything else.
His scanning eyes stopped at a certain line on the document.
Nan Mu stood up and walked over curiously.
“Let me take a look.”
Huo Xunzhou immediately closed the file.
Because of this, Nan Mu didn’t manage to notice the sentence ‘Old acquaintance of Tang Qidai’ written in the file.
“I have something else to do, so I’ll take my leave,” Huo Xunzhou gathered all the documents and got up to leave.
Compared to whatever information Huo Xunzhou asked for, Nan Mu was still more interested in Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s affairs.
He spoke toward Huo Xunzhou’s back, “Lin Shanchu has been eliminated, don’t you don’t care about her?”
Seeing that Huo Xunzhou was still unfazed, Nan Mu shouted, “I’ve lined up a bunch of endorsements for her as soon as she got out. Don’t you feel bad for
Huo Xunzhou finally stopped.
“As long as you’ve thought it through.”
He didn’t look back, but there seemed to be a hint of laughter in his voice. Nan Mu was baffled.
He was talking to Huo Xunzhou about Lin Shanchu. How could the only thing Huo Xunzhou ask him to do was think it through?
What was there to think about?
The house Nan Mu arranged for Lin Shanchu was in a good location.
The transport was convenient and they had all the necessary amenities nearby.
Lin Shanchu was quite low maintenance, so she went to the supermarket to grab some essentials and returned home.
In the meantime, He Xiang demonstrated her diligence by taking the initiative to organize Lin Shanchu’s belongings before Lin Shanchu could attend to them herself.
So when Lin Shanchu returned, she was more than happy to enjoy her leisure time looking around the house.
Nan Mu wasn’t stingy with his money.
But then again, Nan Mu had earned quite a bit from the popularity she gained and the endorsements she brought to ‘My Stage’.
Compared to that, this was nothing.
After looking around the whole house, Lin Shanchu entered the walk-in closet.
The walk-in closet was packed.
All kinds of high-end, branded clothing lined the racks, all of them were of the latest styles of the season.
There were even some limited edition ones.
“Sister Lin, I’ve already tidied up that area. What do you want to eat for dinner?”
He Xiang’s voice sounded from the door.
“Where did all these clothes come from?” Lin Shanchu asked her.
“They were all sent over by their respective brands.”
Lin Shanchu was stunned, “This many?”
She Imew that some brands were more proactive in offering their products to artists they wanted to work with.
Still, this was too much.
He Xiang deliberated and said, “Sister Lin, maybe you don’t know… but you’re really popular now. ”
“I’m really popular?” Lin Shanchu blinked.
She knew she had gained some popularity while being in ‘My Stage’.
But she never felt that she was at a point of being ‘really popular’.
He Xiang thought for a moment and said, “I’ve already received many calls today from people who wanted to discuss collaboration with you…”
There was no such thing as secrets in this industry.
News tends to spread rapidly.
Getting ahold of Lin Shanchu’s contact information wasn’t easy, but getting ahold of her managers’ and assistants’ contacts was much easier.
Even though the assistants weren’t in charge of Lin Shanchu’s work affairs, these people would take advantage of every opportunity and not miss a chance.
Lin Shanchu let out an “Ah” in exclamation and suddenly realized, “I guess I am somewhat popular.”
He Xiang was amused by her appearance, “Brother Qi said that you can choose the clothes you like and wear them. We will return those that you don’t like.”
“Does that mean I have to discuss collaboration with them if I wear their clothes?” Lin Shanchu had a few clothes that she was eyeing. “I think so. You’ll have to ask Brother Qi about that.”
“Got it. ”
As He Xiang turned to leave, she suddenly remembered the purpose of her visit to Lin Shanchu. “Sister Lin, what do you want to have for dinner?”
“Anything is fine.”
He Xiang felt a little hesitant and wanted to ask again.
But Lin Shanchu seemed indifferent and had already started picking out her clothes for tomorrow.
It was six in the morning.
Lin Shanchu woke up on time.
After washing up and coming out of the bedroom, she bumped into He Xiang, who was also up early.
“Good morning, Sister Lin.”
Lin Shanchu had a natural kind of beauty. Even without makeup and with her dreamy blue princess cut, her beauty wasn’t affected at all.
He Xiang looked at Lin Shan Chu with astonishment.
She was too beautiful.
She looked so good even without makeup!
“Why are you up so early?” Lin Shanchu put on a baseball cap and prepared to go downstairs for a run.
“I’m going to make breakfast.”
Lin Shanchu paused upon hearing this and smiled at He Xiang, “When you were Tang Qidai’s assistant, did you also wake up early to make breakfast every
He Xiang’s face turned pale at the mention of Tang Qidai’s name.
“Yes.”
Tang Qidai believed that takeout was unhealthy, so no matter how late they worked the night before, she would always have He Xiang get up early the next morning to make breakfast.
He Xiang didn’t even need to tell her about this and Lin Shanchu could already guess.
“When things get busy, you don’t need to wake up early to make breakfast anymore,” Lin Shanchu didn’t press further and left her with this statement before heading out.
The neighborhood had a nice environment.
There was also an artificial lake.
Lin Shanchu wasn’t sure if her body could handle other exercises, so she just jogged around the lake.
She ran around the lake, over and over again, until she couldn’t run anymore. She collapsed on a bench by the lake to rest.
The temporary lack of blood supply to her brain from running made Lin Shanchu feel a little dizzy.
She looked up at the clear sky and fell into a momentary daze.
She was finally living the unrestrained life that she had been dreaming of for a long time.
All she needed to do now was get out of Lu Shiyuan’s shadow, then she could live a completely free life.
“Miss Lin.”
Qi Cheng’s voice brought her back to reality.
Lin Shanchu slowly straightened up and saw Qi Cheng, who had been standing there for who knows how long.
Lin Shanchu stared at him for a while before calling, “Brother Qi?”
Qi Cheng was elder and a senior in the industry, so it was only right to address him as ‘Brother Qi’.
Qi Cheng forced a smile and said, “Jing Ming used to call me that too.”
The relaxed expression on Lin Shanchu’s face suddenly turned serious, “I’m sorry.”
Her apology seemed abrupt and random, but Qi Cheng understood she was referring to the sudden disappearance of evidence at the police station.
“Don’t blame yourself for that,” Qi Cheng sat down beside her, speaking through gritted teeth, “Lu Shiyuan can’t be this lucky all the time.”
Qi Cheng still didn’t know that the evidence was erased because of Lu Shiyuan’s main character’s halo.
He thought that everything was just a coincidence.
He thought that Lu Shiyuan was lucky.
But in fact, Lu Shiyuan’s luck might always be this good.
After a long silence, Lin Shanchu still didn’t say anything.
Finally, she stood up and said, “Let’s go..”
