Chapter 393 - 393: The System Did Not Disappear, But It Was Transferred
She wondered how the conversation between her uncle and Jiang Weizhu went.
Should she go and take a look?
Lin Shanchu glanced at Huo Xunzhou.
Forget it, her uncle would certainly be able to handle it.
Huo Xunzhou noticed her gaze.
“What’s the matter?”
Lin Shanchu shook her head decisively.
Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou walked all the way to the parking lot, but they did not meet anyone who recognized them.
After getting into the car, Lin Shanchu finally remembered to check her phone.
There were more than thirty unread messages on WeChat. Lin Suguang: [Shanshan, what’s the situation on Huo Xunzhou’s side?]
Lin Suguang: [When are you going to come back?]
Lin Suguang: [The dishes are served.]
Lin Suguang: [Is Miss Jiang really your friend? I think she’s a little weird.]
There were many messages in between, either urging Lin Shanchu to come back quickly or saying that Jiang Weizhu was weird.
Lin Shanchu scrolled to the bottom and looked at the latest message.
Lin Suguang: [Come back quickly! I’m scared!]
Lin Shanchu laughed softly.
Huo Xunzhou turned to look at her.
Lin Shanchu handed her phone to Huo Xunzhou and pointed at the latest WeChat message.
“I came over to dine with my uncle earlier, but I met Jiang Weizhu. She seems to have taken a fancy to my uncle.”
“The Jiang family’s situation is relatively simple. A few years ago, Miss Jiang’s parents divorced and the family business was divided equally. Miss Jiang changed her surname to her mother’s and now inherited the family business.
She has outstanding abilities among her peers.”
He carefully analyzed the situation of the Jiang family for Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu smiled at him and said, “It sounds like the Jiang family’s situation is indeed quite simple. If my uncle and she have mutual feelings for each other, it will be a good marriage.”
“Yeah.”
Huo Xunzhou chuckled in response.
Suddenly, Huo Xunzhou stopped the car by the roadside and shouted coldly, “Get out of the car!”
Lin Shanchu was puzzled.
Lin Shanchu could not react immediately at the drastic change of Huo Xunzhou’s attitude.
“It’s already over between us, Miss Lin. Please don’t pester me anymore, or else…” Huo Xunzhou’s gaze turned sharp, but his face was full of struggle and hesitation, as if he was trying to hold back his words.
It started again.
The plot started to control Huo Xunzhou again.
However, when Huo Xunzhou said ruthless words to her fiercely… it was quite sensual.
Lin Shanchu looked nonchalantly at him and even cooperated by frowning slightly. Her tone was aggrieved and pitiful as she said, “I won’t listen! I know you still love me.”
Lin Shanchu squeezed out two drops of tears as she spoke.
Huo Xunzhou clenched the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He had a frosty look on his face and the struggle in his eyes was clear.
“Lin Shanchu, I wanted to save you some face, but you’re the one who didn’t want it.”
The plot was really ruthless.
It made Huo Xunzhou say whatever harsh words.
Lin Shanchu was not sad at all. Instead, she started to feel sorry for Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou usually did not even have the heart to say harsh words to her, but now he was forced to do so.
“I’ll get out of the car first.” Lin Shanchu could not bear to continue acting with him, so she unbuckled the seatbelt and got out of the car. As soon as she closed the door, the car shot out like an arrow.
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
What kind of rubbish plot was this?
“Tch, my Third Brother chased you out of the car?”
A familiar voice sounded behind her.
Lin Shanchu turned around, narrowed her eyes and asked, “Huo Chaosheng? Why are you here?”
“To have fun.” Huo Chaosheng stuffed his hands into his coat pockets and raised his chin to signal her to look behind her.
Lin Shanchu looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a group of people chatting and looking at her.
Judging from their attire and temperament, they were a group of rich kids.
Lin Shanchu averted her gaze and looked at Huo Chaosheng thoughtfully.
“You saw everything?”
“Saw what?”
“Your Third Brother parked the car by the roadside and chased me out. Did you see the entire process?”
“I did.”
Huo Chaosheng gloated and said, “Fortunately, my Third Brother has finally thought it through and wants to break up with you. However, I don’t really like that Cheng Fanjing either. How can my Third Brother go on a date with her for dinner… Ouch!”
Lin Shanchu kicked Huo Chaosheng hard without any expression on her face.
“What are you doing?” Huo Chaosheng gasped in pain. Lin Shanchu replied, “I’m not happy. I want to kick someone.”
Huo Chaosheng was speechless.
Lin Shanchu adjusted her coat and turned to walk in the opposite direction of Huo Chaosheng.
She seemed to have understood a little about how Huo Xunzhou was controlled by the plot.
As long as there was a third person who knew her and Huo Xunzhou present, he could only go against his own will and act indifferent to her.
The effect of the plot was to make everyone think that Huo Xunzhou disliked her.
In summary, she and Huo Xunzhou were not an official couple in the plot setting, so the plot would try to separate them.
In that case, did she and Huo Xunzhou have their own official partner in the new plot?
Huo Xunzhou was forced to ask Cheng Fanjing out for dinner tonight.
Could it be that Huo Xunzhou’s official partner was Cheng Fanjing?
Then, who would be her official partner in the new plot?
Could it be Lu Shiyuan?
Lin Shanchu stopped in her tracks.
Moreover, the plot of forming couples forcefully seemed familiar.
That stupid system kept guiding her and even tried to control her through the plot back then, didn’t it?
The system?
When she awakened, the system appeared along with her.
The system disappeared after she made Lu Shiyuan sleep with Xia Jinmeng.
Was it possible that the stupid system did not disappear, but it was transferred?
This would explain why Lu Shiyuan suddenly knew about the plot.
The more Lin Shanchu thought about it, the more she felt that this hypothesis was true.
It was because the plot that the stupid system made her to follow was all biased towards Lu Shiyuan.
A trashy system and a scumbag male lead were a perfect match.
Then, there was no doubt about her official partner. It was still that scumbag Lu Shiyuan.
As for her, she was still the female lead in the new plot.
Not only did she want to kill Lu Shiyuan, but she also wanted to destroy that trashy system.
“Lin Shanchu, where are you going?” Huo Chaosheng shouted at her from behind. “Let’s play together for a while!”
When Lin Shanchu heard his voice, she turned around and walked towards Huo Chaosheng.
“Let’s go.”
Huo Chaosheng was puzzled.
“Didn’t you ask me to play with you?”
Huo Chaosheng followed behind Lin Shanchu.
“I didn’t think you’d actually show up.”
“I feel uncomfortable after your Third Brother chased me out of the car. I’ll drink some wine to relieve my boredom.” According to the plot of the novel, the male lead would show up out of nowhere whenever the female lead got into trouble.
She could use this opportunity to stir up some trouble and confirm her guess.
Huo Chaosheng was silent for a moment before he said, “My Third Brother got together with you in the first place because of me. You were too immersed in the character..”
