Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Went Rampant After Her Awakening

Chapter 31



Chapter 31

....

Nan Mu didn’t know where he got his confidence from, but he felt that she could save Huo Xunzhou.


Lin Shanchu had the self-awareness of living under someone else’s roof.


“It’s getting late. I’m going to cook.” She did not want to get involved in a battle between men.


After Lin Shanchu got out of Huo Xunzhou’s line of sight, she left quickly.


Nan Mu looked at Lin Shanchu’s back in disbelief, “Look at her, Xunzhou. Women are heartless.”


He turned to look at Huo Xunzhou as he spoke.


He then realized that Huo Xunzhou was also looking in the direction of Lin Shanchu’s departure, the corners of his mouth lifting up slightly.


“What are you laughing at? Are you laughing at me?” Nan Mu was a little sad.


Huo Xunzhou retracted his gaze and said coldly, “Has Lu Shiyuan been causing you trouble these past two days?”


When it came to business, Nan Mu’s expression became serious.


“That b*stard didn’t just cause trouble for me. He also wanted to mess with Ji Yuan. Although he didn’t find any evidence that we boosted the popularity of Fu Jue’s topic, he should have guessed that we were the ones who did it. ”


“Be careful,” Huo Xunzhou reminded him.


“Got it,” Nan Mu replied.



While they were eating, Nan Mu and Li Mo both had serious expressions.


However, this did not stop them from finishing the food.


If Lin Shanchu the outsider wasn’t here, they might have just licked their plates clean.


The more Lin Shanchu looked at them, the more she felt that they were eating their last meal.


It was as if this was the last meal in their lives.


“Are you guys full?” she asked.


The two of them nodded in unison.


Nan Mu sighed sadly. “When I think about how you’re going to join the production crew tomorrow and how I won’t be able to eat your cooking anymore, I feel bad for myself.”


Lin Shanchu reminded him, “I’m just recording a show. I’m not dead yet.”


“Oh, you’re right.” Nan Mu had a look of realization on his face.


“Do the dishes,” Huo Xunzhou said while looking at Nan Mu.


The three words were filled with disdain.


Nan Mu scratched his head before running to do the dishes happily.


In the past few days, as long as he had dinner with Huo Xunzhou and the others, Huo Xunzhou would let Li Mo and Nan Mu do the dishes.


The feeling of being respected was something Lin Shanchu had never experienced.


People should live like this, shouldn’t they?


Before Nan Mu left, Lin Shanchu stood up. “I’ll walk you out.”


Nan Mu was stunned for a moment, but then he realized that she might want to tell him something.


“Alright. Xunzhou, I’m leaving.” Nan Mu looked at Huo Xunzhou.


Huo Xunzhou was looking at his phone. He glanced at Nan Mu.


Nan Mu, who was very familiar with him, could see the displeasure in his eyes.


Huh?


Was he unhappy because Lin Shanchu wanted to walk him out?


He had no idea that Huo Xunzhou was the jealous type.


Nan Mu walked out with a smile.


Lin Shanchu did not know what he was happy about. It was impossible for her to ask about it too.


At the door, Nan Mu turned back to look at her. “What’s the matter?”


“Can you help me round up a few reporters tomorrow?” Lin Shanchu asked unhurriedly.


“Of course. The production crew has already made arrangements for this.” Lin Shanchu was one of the highlights of their show, so of course, they had to create some popularity and market the show.


Lin Shanchu knew that Nan Mu had misunderstood her.


“Lu Shiyuan will definitely come to the venue to look for me tomorrow.”


‘Look for’ was the nice phrase to describe it, but the exact word would be ‘catch’.


Nan Mu was also a wily old fox in the entertainment industry. When he heard her say this, his eyes lit up immediately. “I understand! Don’t worry! I’ll definitely get this done!”


“Thank you,” Lin Shanchu said.


“I already told you that you don’t have to be so polite with us… Did you tell Xunzhou about this?” Nan Mu changed the topic.


Stunned, Lin Shanchu shook her head.


Nan Mu can easily handle the small matters.


Was there a need to tell Huo Xunzhou?


“Hurry up and tell him when you get back.” After getting into the car, Nan Mu felt the need to remind her worriedly, “You must remember to tell him.”


When Lin Shanchu went back, she noticed that Huo Xunzhou was still playing with his phone in the living room.


His well-defined fingers quickly swiped across the screen.


The speed at which he flipped the pages… Could he really see the contents of the phone?


“Mr. Huo.”


Lin Shanchu’s voice interrupted him as he flipped the pages.


After a two-second pause, he simply threw his phone aside and looked at her with a faint smile.


“You call me Brother Xunzhou when you need me. Then it’s Mr. Huo when you don’t.”


Nan Mu was right; women were that heartless.


Li Mo, who was walking down the stairs, happened to hear Huo Xunzhou’s words.


He immediately shrank back in fear and hid at the top of the stairs like a thief. Then, he stuck his head out to look over.


Lin Shanchu was speechless.


It was the first time she heard Huo Xunzhou speak in such a weird tone.


He sounded a little angry.


After Lin Shanchu carefully thought it over, she asked tentatively, “Are you angry?”


“Why should I be angry?” Huo Xunzhou snorted. “What’s there to be angry about?”


Lin Shanchu said, “I…”


“Seek out Nan Mu if you need help with anything,” Huo Xunzhou interjected coldly.


Lin Shanchu always had a good temper. However, since Huo Xunzhou kept interrupting her, it caused her temper to flare and her voice to rise tremendously.


“Can’t you let me finish speaking?”


Li Mo, who was hiding at the top of the stairs, thought, “Woah! They’re arguing right now!”


It turned out that Ms. Lin also had a temper.


This was the first time Huo Xunzhou had heard Lin Shanchu speak so loudly.


He stared at Lin Shanchu for a moment. When he turned his head away and averted his gaze from her, there was a trace of indiscernable panic in his actions.


“Sure.”


He wasn’t actually angry just now.


On the contrary, it was the same as the last time she called him crazy. He thought that Lin Shanchu was quite cute whenever she was angry.


Li Mo, who waited for the drama to erupt, thought, “Wait, what?”


He was very disappointed, thinking that he would be able to see the two of them quarrel.


“I want to let Lu Shiyuan know when I join the production crew tomorrow.”


Smart people could always quickly analyze more information from a simple sentence.


“That’s very risky.” Huo Xunzhou frowned.


He had seen how Lu Shiyuan treated Lin Shanchu.


If anything were to go wrong during the process which might lead to Lin Shanchu getting caught by Lu Shiyuan on her way to the shooting location, she would still suffer from physical harm even though she could still join the production crew in the end.


“As long as I can achieve my goal, risks like this are nothing.” Lin Shanchu smiled indifferently as if she was talking about a normal thing.


She didn’t care that she would get hurt.


She seemed to have no attachment to this world.


Her ultimate goal in life was to destroy Lu Shiyuan.


Under the calm and gentle face was a soul that was on the brink of insanity.


“I’ll get Li Mo to drive you there.”


Huo Xunzhou realized what he had said and sighed silently in his heart.


He felt that he was not a good person.


Every time he saw her like this, he couldn’t help but feel bad for her.


Maybe it was because she was Madam Ning’s daughter.


“It’s fine. Li Mo had his picture taken in the past. Everyone knows that he’s your subordinate.” This was her own business. There was no need to drag Huo Xunzhou into it.


Huo Xunzhou wanted to say, “It’s fine.”


However, as the words were about to come out of his mouth, he suddenly remembered what he had said to her a long time ago.


“I didn’t help you with anything, and no one can help you except yourself.”
