Chapter 404 - 404: Now That You Are Getting Married, He Is Starting to Have Problems?
“I’m not blind,” Lin Suguang added under Lin Shanchu’s surprised gaze.
Lin Shanchu showed Lin Suguang the chat history.
“Can you see these messages too?”
“I can.”
Lin Suguang’s gaze stopped at the message: [Indeed, I’m not as magnanimous as you, Shanshan. You watched me bring another woman to the cocktail party and just turned a blind eye.]
He really could not believe that Huo Xunzhou, who usually looked so serious, would type such a message.
Lin Shanchu noticed his gaze and embarrassedly withdrew her hand to press the lock button.
Lin Suguang looked at her with a faint smile and said, “Miss Jiang is still waiting for me. I’ll go over now.”
He left after saying those words.
Lin Shanchu was left awkwardly covering her face.
After that, she went around to find Nan Mu and deliberately pretended to be disappointed to worm information out of him.
“Huo Xunzhou hasn’t given you a welcome party since you came to Capital City, right?”
Hearing Lin Shanchu mention it, Nan Mu snorted coldly. “I told him to give me a welcome party. I asked him out for a meal and he said he didn’t have time. I wonder what he’s busy with!”
Lin Shanchu sighed. “I don’t know what he’s busy with either.”
Ever since Nan Mu came to Capital City, he had not had a meal with Huo
Xunzhou. It seemed that he did not know much about Huo Xunzhou’s situation.
If Huo Xunzhou did not confess himself, then she could only worm information out of Li MO, who was closest to him.
It was much easier to worm information out of Li Mo.
When the cocktail party ended, Lin Shanchu looked around for Lin Suguang, wanting to go home with him.
In the end, she could not find him even after looking around.
Instead, he saw Jiang Weizhu. “Are you looking for your uncle?”
“Did you see him?”
He’s already gone back. Didn’t he tell you?”
Lin Shanchu thought for a moment. Perhaps her uncle believed that Huo Xunzhou had not changed his mind after seeing her chat history with him. He thought that Huo Xunzhou would take her home, so he did not wait for her. When Lin Shanchu went out, Yun Wu was waiting for her at the entrance.
“Shanshan, come quickly. You’re the only one left.”
Yun Wu pulled her into Huo Xunzhou’s car.
However, Lin Shanchu sat in the passenger seat while Yun Wu sat in the back.
Right after Lin Shanchu fastened the seatbelt, she heard Yun Jin’s voice from behind her. “Sister-in-law.”
“Second…”
Lin Shanchu subconsciously wanted to call him “Second Brother ” but Huo Xunzhou suddenly started the car and interrupted Lin Shanchu.
Yun Jin was dissatisfied with Huo Xunzhou.
“Zhouzhou, don’t be so petty. It’s fine if you’re insensible and don’t call me Second Brother, but you won’t let your wife call me Second Brother! What kind of brother are you?”
If Lin Shanchu had not seen Yun Jin standing obediently beside Huo Xunzhou before, she would probably have thought that Yun Jin could really control him.
Huo Xunzhou shouted expressionlessly, “Shut up! I’m not in that kind of relationship with her!”
“Tch.” Yun Jin said disdainfully, “That’s not what you said when you begged me to hack into Lu Corporation’s power supply system for your wife.” Lin Shanchu remembered it.
Back when Lu Shiyuan’s criminal evidence was erased, she had a mental breakdown and ran to Lu Corporation to smash things. Later on, when she went to the rooftop and was brought down by Huo Xunzhou, the entire building of Lu Corporation had a power outage.
She found it strange at the time.
She did not expect that Huo Xunzhou would ask Yun Jin to do it.
She turned to look at Huo Xunzhou.
How many more things had this man done behind the scenes without her Imowledge?
Yun Jin could tell from Lin Shanchu’s expression that she did not know about it.
“Sister-in-law, you still don’t know about this?”
“He didn’t tell me.”
Huo Xunzhou was a reserved person who was especially good at hiding things. If Yun Jin had not told her today, Huo Xunzhou would probably have hidden it from her for the rest of his life.
It would not affect him much if he said it out loud.
However, Huo Xunzhou would never take the initiative to tell her as long as he felt that there was no need to do so.
He did not Imow how he had developed this habit.
Huo Xunzhou, who was deeply restricted by the plot in front of outsiders, said expressionlessly, “Let’s not talk about the past anymore.”
Yun Jin continued to provoke Huo Xunzhou. “Sister-in-law, I advise you to consider it carefully before you get married. It’s better not to marry this kind a man.”
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
Huo Xunzhou glanced at Yun Jin through the rearview mirror.
His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Yun Wu silently hugged her arms and leaned against the car door away from Yun Jin.
She had to stay far away. Otherwise, she would be accidentally injured when Huo Xunzhou assassinated Yun Jin later.
Yun Jin felt a chill run down his spine from Huo Xunzhou’s piercing gaze, so he finallv st0DDed talking.
But soon, Lin Shanchu’s phone rang with a WeChat friend request notification.
Yun Jin found Lin Shanchu’s WeChat contact in the Yun family group and sent her a friend request.
Lin Shanchu stole a glance at Huo Xunzhou and accepted the friend request.
Lin Shanchu: [Second Brother.]
Yun Jin: [Your man is so fierce.]
Lin Shanchu: [Actually, he can be quite gentle sometimes.]
Yun Jin: [It’s okay. Our Yun family is very open-minded. We can understand you if you want to dump him because you really can’t stand him.]
Lin Shanchu was puzzled.
He was really Huo Xunzhou’s cousin.
Huo Xunzhou drove straight to the Yun family’s mansion.
The old couple of the Yun family were overjoyed to see Lin Shanchu, but they made a long face as soon as they saw Huo Xunzhou.
Patriarch Yun snorted coldly and lectured Huo Xunzhou. “You just worked for a few days at that small company, Huo Corporation. What’s there to be proud
Although he doted on Huo Xunzhou, he disliked the fact that Huo Xunzhou had a dinner date with Cheng Fanjing after he and Lin Shanchu met each other’s guardians.
Lin Shanchu was speechless, wondering if Huo Corporation was a small company.
Huo Xunzhou was speechless.
Huo Xunzhou sat there with his eyes slightly lowered and kept quiet, looking obedient as Patriarch Yun lectured him.
Lin Shanchu’s heart ached a little.
Huo Xunzhou had been forced to do so, and now he was being scolded by the old man.
How pitiful.
She spoke up for Huo Xunzhou.
‘ Grandpa, he’s not proud. Don’t talk about him like that.”
Patriarch Yun looked at Lin Shanchu in disappointment. Then, he leaned over and whispered into her ear.
“Can you be more careful? He even dared to go out on a dinner date with another woman. How can you not teach him a lesson?”
Lin Shanchu was speechless. Huo Xunzhou’s grandfather was quite considerate of her.
Lin Shanchu continued to speak up for Huo Xunzhou, “You know him best. He must have his own problems.”
“What kind of problems?” Patriarch Yun said disdainfully. “Why didn’t he talk about his problems when he courted you back then? Now that you are getting married, he is starting to have problems?”
Lin Shanchu was speechless. The old man’s words sounded so reasonable that Lin Shanchu could not refute him.
She was successfully convinced by the old man and gave Huo Xunzhou a look, trying to signal him that she was unable to help him..
