Chapter 256 - 256: You Have Obtained God’s Favor
“Sister Lin, what’s wrong with you?”
He Xiang immediately got up and followed her.
Lin Shanchu was lying in front of the sink and retching, looking miserable.
Anxious, He Xiang patted her back to make her feel better.
When Lin Shanchu finally calmed down, He Xiang trotted off to pour a glass of water for Lin Shanchu to rinse her mouth.
Lin Shanchu took the glass of water, rinsed her mouth, and forced herself to drink a mouthful of water.
Then, she straightened up and looked at He Xiang. “I’m fine. I have an upset stomach probably because I’ve eaten all kinds of food in the past few days.”
He Xiang frowned as she said, “Let’s go to the hospital then.”
“No need, it’s not that uncomfortable.” Lin Shanchu patted He Xiang on the shoulder. “Pack up. We’re going out.”
After returning to her room, Lin Shanchu’s calm expression instantly disappeared.
As the Health Points were near expiry, the symptoms of cancer became more and more obvious.
She felt nauseous and vomited, and she had no appetite for meals.
She was tired and could not lift her spirits.
The series of changes in her physical condition forced her to confront her illness.
She knew that it was just the beginning.
If she did not exchange the so-called Health Points with the system, her condition would become even more serious.
Lin Shanchu curled her lips and sneered at the thought.
She wanted to live too.
She wanted to live a more comfortable life.
However, she did not want to be at the mercy of the stupid system like before.
A stupid system that could not distinguish between right and wrong was no different from that scumbag, Lu Shiyuan.
None of them could control her!
When Lin Shanchu was filming in the studio, He Xiang was very considerate and went to buy medicine for her.
“The doctor said that these medicines have to be taken after meals. Eat something first.” He Xiang even bought porridge and some light dishes for Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu’s way of expressing her gratitude was more direct. “I’ll give you a raise.”
He Xiang was a little speechless. “Sister Lin, how many times have you given me a raise? If you increase my salary again, I’m afraid that you even have to sell your family property.”
Lin Shanchu lowered her head and took a sip of porridge. “It won’t reach that extent. I’ve arranged my inheritance long ago.”
“You’ve arranged your inheritance?” He Xiang looked surprised.
Lin Shanchu realized that she had spilled the beans, so she calmly remedied the situation and said, “People with assets like us will arrange it in advance.” “You’re right.” He Xiang felt that it made sense.
When the shoot ended in the afternoon, Lin Shanchu received a call from Nan Mtl.
“I heard that Xia Jinmeng’s boss sent her contract to Lu Shiyuan early this morning. ”
Nan Mu was unconvinced as he continued, “Why didn’t he send it to our company? Do you think Xia Jinmeng’s boss looks down on me or Xunzhou?” “Who doesn’t like a dupe in business?” Lin Shanchu laughed.
Nan Mu was silent for two seconds before he laughed out loud. “That’s true. Lu Shiyuan seems to have a screw loose and insists on signing Xia Jinmeng. He must have given Xia Jinmeng’s boss a lot of benefits.”
At the banquet yesterday, Lin Shanchu was the one who suggested to Nan Mu that he should consider signing Xia Jinmeng, but he was not very willing to do so.
In addition, Huo Xunzhou’s identity as the behind-the-scenes boss had been exposed, indicating that Nan Mu might not have the power to make a decision.
Lu Shiyuan still had power to make decisions in Lu Corporation and he had declared that he wanted to sign Xia Jinmeng, so he must have taken a liking to her.
Xia Jinmeng’s boss weighed the pros and cons and naturally thought that he could reap more benefits by giving the contract to Lu Shiyuan.
At this moment, Nan Mu finally realized it. “You’re not surprised by this event at all. Did you expect this outcome?”
Lin Shanchu did not respond directly. Instead, she said, “Thank you for your cooperation last night, President Nan.”
It was equivalent to indirectly acknowledging Nan Mu’s words.
“I really want to know if you have obtained God’s favor.” Nan Mu heaved a long sigh.
He even began to understand why Tang Qidai picked on Lin Shanchu all the time.
Lin Shanchu was good-looking and intelligent coupled with a trait that attracted fans and anti-fans.
Even Nan Mu, as a man, felt a little jealous, let alone Tang Qidai.
Lin Shanchu replied, “Thank you for your compliment, President Nan. Is there anything else?”
Nan Mu said, “There really is! Yiming asked me for your contact information.”
“The director?” He was probably referring to Song Yiming, the director of “My
Stage”.
Nan Mu said, “That’s right.”
“Give me his number. I’ll contact him later.” She was acquainted with the director. After all, she had “borrowed” his phone several times.
“Alright!”
Nan Mu hung up the phone and sent Song Yiming’s number to her.
Lin Shanchu still had to rush to the next event, so she could only rest in the car for a while. After she sent a friend request to Song Yiming on WeChat, she fell asleep.
When she woke up, she had arrived at the destination.
The staff came over to bring them to the dressing room.
Just as Lin Shanchu was about to enter the dressing room, she heard Yun Wu’s voice behind her.
“Shanshan!”
Lin Shanchu raised her head and saw the group of five including Yun Wu were present.
“What a coincidence.” She really felt that it was a coincidence.
She had never thought that she would meet Yun Wu and the others here.
Wen Tongtong and Ran Zhimo also came over to greet Lin Shanchu.
After exchanging pleasantries, Lin Shanchu entered her dressing room.
It was a single dressing room that the organizer had specially arranged for her.
“Wow!” Ran Zhimo exclaimed, “Lin Shanchu is so amazing. She even has her own dressing room.”
Yunwu nodded proudly. “Yeah.”
An Youyun curled her lips and sneered silently.
Wen Tongtong glanced at An Youyun. “Put on more perfume. You smell sour.”
“You…” An Youjun snorted coldly and turned around to enter the dressing room.
On the other hand, Xia Jinmeng, who had a direct confrontation with Lin Shanchu back in the training camp, did not say a word. She turned around and followed An Youjun into the dressing room.
Ran Zhimo felt that it was a little novel and whispered to Yun Wu, “Don’t you feel that Xia Jinmeng has been acting weird recently? Her style of dressing has changed, and even her personality has become much quieter.”
“Really?” Yun Wu vaguely understood that Xia Jinmeng’s change had something to do with Lin Shanchu, but she naturally would not tell Ran Zhimo about it.
Wen Tongtong laughed mockingly. “It’s just her pretense.”
She had gotten along with Xia Jinmeng for a long time, so she knew best about Xia Jinmeng’s personality.
It was impossible for Xia Jinmeng to change her personality in such a short period of time.
“What do you mean?” Ran Zhimo asked curiously.
Wen Tongtong said expressionlessly, “I don’t know what happened to her, but I know she’s putting up a pretense.”
After saying that, she went into the dressing room.
When Yun Wu saw that Ran Zhimo looked like she wanted to pursue the matter, she said, “I’m going to hang out with Shanshan for a while. Call me when you’re going leave.”
After everyone left, Ran Zhimo felt bored and followed them into the dressing room.
As soon as Lin Shanchu sat in front of the mirror and closed her eyes, she started to feel sleepy.
“Shanshan.”
Hearing Yun Wu’s voice, Lin Shanchu opened her eyes.
Yu Tian was sitting at the side and looking at Lin Shanchu with her chin rested on her hand.
“Did you not sleep well last night?”
