Chapter 302 - 302: Would You Believe Me If I Said It Was A Coincidence?
Lin Shanchu felt a little guilty.
She was indeed not a good person after everything she had done.
Lin Shanchu muttered, “You also added fuel to the fire and helped to clean up my mess several times…”
Although her voice was soft, she said it confidently.
It was hard for Huo Xunzhou not to hear it, but he could not refute her. It was because Lin Shanchu was telling the truth.
After the two of them fell silent for a while, they tacitly decided to avoid this topic.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Shanchu finally felt tired. Then, Huo
Xunzhou said, “I’ll take you home.”
“Alright.” Lin Shanchu obediently reached out to him, asking him to carry her down.
When the car stopped at the entrance of the residential area, Lin Shanchu’s sleepiness faded a little and she felt a little more awake.
“What time is your flight?” she asked Huo Xunzhou.
‘7:00 a.m.”
Lin Shanchu looked at the time and realized that it was almost 4:00 a.m.
Huo Xunzhou had no time to rest at all.
Huo Xunzhou saw through her thoughts and comforted her. “It’s fine.”
Before Lin Shanchu got out of the car, she recalled the conversation they had about Lu Corporation.
“I really don’t know how to do business, nor do I know how to manage a company!” She was really afraid that Huo Xunzhou would acquire Lu
Corporation and give it to her.
Huo Xunzhou was the kind of person who kept his word.
He would definitely do such a thing.
Huo Xunzhou had one hand on the car window and the other on the steering wheel. He said lazily, “I can do it.”
“Then you…” Lin Shanchu looked happy.
Huo Xunzhou interrupted her, “But I’m not a helpful person. I only help my wife manage the company.”
Lin Shanchu replied, “What?”
She could not keep up with Huo Xunzhou’s pace in the conversation.
Why did he suddenly mention “my wife”?
Was he… proposing to her?
Lin Shanchu was so sleepy and confused that she could not think straight.
“Go back and have a good rest.”
He watched Lin Shanchu enter the residential area and returned to the car to wait.
He tapped his index finger on the steering wheel and counted the time in his mind.
After a while, he took out his phone and called Lin Shanchu. The faint sound of the door opening could be heard from the other end.
“Are you home?” he asked.
“Yes.” Lin Shanchu was afraid of waking He Xiang up, so she lowered her voice.
“Good night.’
“Good night,” Lin Shanchu replied softly like a thief and hung up the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Huo Xunzhou confirmed that she had hung up before driving away.
He Xiang left the lights in the entrance hall on for Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu changed her shoes and walked in quietly.
When she passed by the living room, He Xiang jumped up from the sofa with a blanket over her head.
“Sister Lin! You’re back!”
Lin Shanchu stiffly turned around and asked, “Why are you sleeping in the living room?”
“I was waiting for you.” He Xiang picked up her phone and looked at the time in a daze. “It’s already 4:00 a.m.!”
He Xiang suddenly became awake and widened her eyes in disbelief. “Sister Lin, you…”
She left home late at night and only returned when it was almost dawn.
It was really suspicious.
He Xiang was more and more certain that Lin Shanchu had gone out to meet Huo Chaosheng.
Lin Shanchu walked over with a calm expression and pushed He Xiang back onto the sofa before covering her with a blanket. “Go to sleep.” He Xiang silently pulled down the blanket that covered her head.
Lin Shanchu was really suspicious.
The first thing Lin Shanchu did when she returned to her room was to summon the system again.
However, after waiting for a long time, the familiar mechanical voice did not ring in her mind again.
Lu Shiyuan and Xia Jinmeng had slept together, and the male lead’s aura was gone.
The system was also gone.
But why was she still alive and well?
So, did that f*cking system lie to her from the beginning?
Was everything really going to end like this?
Lin Shanchu lay on the bed. Then, she tossed and turned while thinking for a long time until she fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it was already noon the next day.
Lin Shanchu stared blankly at the ceiling for a while before reaching out to pick up her phone.
She first looked at the unread WeChat messages on her phone.
Huo Chaosheng: [My Third Brother is not human! He actually escorted me back to Capital City!]
Huo Chaosheng: [Why aren’t you replying to me?]
Huo Chaosheng: [Are you ignoring me after you’re done using me?]
Huo Chaosheng: [Just you wait. I’ll definitely come back.]
Huo Chaosheng: [Lin Shanchu! Did you block me?]
Huo Chaosheng: [Why is Third Brother like this?! I really didn’t expect him to be such a person!]
Huo Chaosheng was usually talkative, but it was the first time Lin Shanchu had seen Huo Chaosheng spamming so many messages.
It was obvious that Huo Chaosheng was very angry at Huo Xunzhou for suddenly taking him back to Capital City.
However, Huo Xunzhou was really mean.
She knew that Huo Chaosheng did not want to return to Capital City, but Huo Xunzhou insisted on taking him back quietly.
Lin Shanchu typed slowly to reply to him. Lin Shanchu: [I just woke up.]
Lin Shanchu: [You’re back in Capital City?]
Lin Shanchu: [I’m not angry. I’ll go to Capital City to hang out with you when I have time.]
Huo Chaosheng replied instantly: [At least you have a conscience.]
Huo Xunzhou sent her WeChat messages early in the morning, but his messages was at the bottom because he was first to send them and there were many people who sent her messages.
Huo Xunzhou had sent her two messages in total.
Huo Xunzhou: [I’m boarding now. [photo]]
A photo of him boarding the plane was attached to the message and there was no more unnecessary message.
Huo Xunzhou: [I got off the plane. [photo]]
A photo of Capital City Airport was attached.
Lin Shanchu couldn’t help but laugh. Was this what a straight man would do?
It was a little cute.
Lin Shanchu replied with a smile: [Okay, got it.]
After that, Lin Shanchu replied to the others one by one.
Finally, she saw Wen Huan’s message.
Wen Huan: [[photo][photo][photo][photo]]
Lin Shanchu clicked open the message and saw the photos of Huo Xunzhou picking her up last night.
However, Huo Xunzhou was wearing a hat and a mask in the photo, so his face could not be seen clearly.
Coupled with the dim lighting at night, it was difficult for ordinary people to recognize him easily. Lin Shanchu: C…]
Wen Huan:
Lin Shanchu: [You… really didn’t put a tracker on me, did you?]
Wen Huan: [Would you believe me if I said it was a coincidence?]
He was just wandering around outside. How would he know that he would be able to take pictures of such incident?
Lin Shanchu: [I believe you.]
She suspected that Wen Huan was a hidden highlight character with additional buffs.
Otherwise, it would be very illogical.
The screen kept showing that the other party was typing.
Wen Huan hesitated for a long time before asking: [Who is this man?]
Lin Shanchu: […]
To her surprise, Wen Huan failed to recognize Huo Xunzhou.
He was indeed someone with an aura. Lin Shanchu: [I’m not going to tell you.]
Wen Huan advised her earnestly: [Be careful, the Huo brothers aren’t good people.]
Lin Shanchu: [Thank you.]
Wen Huan: [[Sisters.jpg]]
Lin Shanchu: C…]
Great, Wen Huan completely thought that she was a philanderess..
