Chapter 358: Care About My Shanshan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The old man said innocently, “I was fierce to her because she said those outrageous things to you!”
The old lady snorted coldly as she asked, “Is she wrong?”
“Let’s not care if what she said is right or wrong.” After a pause, the old man continued, “First of all, her tone was wrong. No matter what, you’re her elder…” Lin Shanchu originally planned to look for Huo Xunzhou.
However, seeing that the old lady and the old man were about to quarrel again, she decided to stay and mediate between the two of them.
Just then, she saw Huo Xunzhou not far away.
Huo Xunzhou did not say anything. He just waved at her and gestured for her to come over.
Lin Shanchu hesitated for a moment. After confirming that the two elders were only quarreling and not fighting, she walked towards Huo Xunzhou with a peace of mind.
Lin Shanchu walked over and complained to Huo Xunzhou, “Grandpa was fierce to me.”
She frowned slightly as she spoke, looking aggrieved.
“I saw it,” Huo Xunzhou said gently and reached out to her.
Lin Shanchu handed her hand to him and squatted down in front of him. Then, she rested her head on his lap with her beautiful eyebrows drooping.
She looked as pitiful as she could be.
Those who did not know better would probably think that she had been bullied harshly.
In reality, it was just a harsh remark.
Huo Xunzhou patted her head and said in a pampering tone, “Let’s ignore him for the next few days.”
Lin Shanchu tilted her head and replied, “I don’t think that’s a good idea. He’s your grandfather after all.”
“Shanshan, you became a villain on my behalf, so I naturally have to stand on your side.” Huo Xunzhou curled his lip and said, “Besides, if he cares about the old lady, can’t I care about my Shanshan?”
Huo Xunzhou’s mother’s death and his disappearance had been the pain and taboo in the Yun family for many years.
The younger generation of the Yun family felt sorry for their elders. Before Huo Xunzhou returned, no one dared to mention him in front of the old couple.
They were also reluctant to say anything harsh to the old couple on this matter.
As time passed, it became a chronic illness.
It would be difficult to cure it without using potent medicine.
However, no one in the Yun family was willing to be such a villain to touch a sore spot.
In that case, he could only let Lin Shanchu, who was relatively close to the Yun family, be the villain.
“It’s just a minor matter…” Lin Shanchu was a little shy as she covered her face with her hands.
At this moment, cries came from the other side.
Lin Shanchu turned around and saw Huo Xunzhou’s grandparents hugging each other and crying.
She was busy acting pitiful earlier to make Huo Xunzhou distressed, such that she did not pay attention to what the two elders were saying.
Looking serious, Lin Shanchu asked Huo Xunzhou, “Do you want to go over and comfort them?” Huo Xunzhou shook his head.
“Let’s go.”
As Lin Shanchu pushed Huo Xunzhou away, she turned back to look at Yun Hongru and his wife.
No one could guarantee that every decision they made in their life was correct.
Every decision was risky.
Regardless of the outcome, as long as she wanted to solve the problem, she had to bear the responsibility.
Of course, those who did not want to solve the problem could also choose to avoid it and choose not to face the problem for the rest of their lives.
After all, many things in life were unsolvable.
There was no answer and no solution.
Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou’s official relationship had been trending on various social media platforms for several days.
For the next few days, no matter which platform the netizens accessed, they would see discussions about Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou’s official relationship.
Sponsors for various brands and variety shows approached Lin Shanchu one after another.
Nan Mu received calls asking about Lin Shanchu’s schedule almost every day.
He gave the same reply to every phone call asking about Lin Shanchu’s schedule.
“Shanshan’s manager is in charge of her matters. I’ll find out the situation before giving you a reply.”
The pressure was on Qi Cheng.
Qi Cheng’s phone got spammed with calls.
The spam calls were continuous, causing his phone to hang up directly.
He could only use He Xiang’s phone to call Lin Shanchu.
“Shanshan, the production crew gave us a reply after you went for the audition last time. They asked when you could join the crew and invited you for an interview. ”
“Let’s talk when we meet.”
Therefore, Qi Cheng and He Xiang came to the Yun family’s mansion again.
After the old man and the old lady cry on each other’s shoulder on that day, they reconciled.
The servants at home noticed that the old man had been in a good mood recently and was happy all day.
When Yun Hongru saw Qi Cheng and He Xiang, he knew that they were here for Lin Shanchu, so he personally led them to her.
When they entered the mansion, Lin Shanchu opened the door and came out.
“Shanshan.” Yun Hongru leaned on his walking stick and said fawningly, “I’ve brought your manager and assistant.”
“Thank you.” Lin Shanchu called the two of them into the room. When she saw that Yun Hongru was still standing there, she asked, “Is there anything else?” Hesitation flashed across Yun Hongru’s face. “You guys go get busy.”
The group entered the room.
Yun Hongru stood at the door for a moment before leaving.
Nan Mu knew that Qi Cheng and He Xiang came to meet Lin Shanchu, so he made time to have a video conference with them.
“There’s a love observation program that’s especially generous…” Nan Mu kept persuading Lin Shanchu to participate in the variety show.
Qi Cheng knew that Lin Shanchu was not interested in variety shows, so he listened quietly.
After Nan Mu finished speaking, he saw Lin Shanchu’s disinterested expression and became a little anxious.
“This variety show is quite interesting.”
“Oh.” Lin Shanchu asked perfunctorily, “Did the other party offer a few million yuan?”
“It’s just…” Nan Mu felt that he had been seen through by Lin Shanchu, so he kept quiet guiltily.
He also knew that Lin Shanchu was not interested in variety shows.
However, the other party had given him too much money.
Nan Mu sighed. “I heard you’re invited for a face-to-face meeting after the audition last time. You should join the crew as soon as possible after the interview.”
Seeing Lin Shanchu was carefree, his heart ached.
He did not have any requests now.
He would be contented as long as Lin Shanchu returned to work as soon as possible!
After they finished chatting about work, Lin Shanchu met Yun Hongru in the hall while seeing Qi Cheng and He Xiang off.
“Let’s have dinner before you leave.”
Yun Hongru enthusiastically asked them to stay for dinner.
Lin Shanchu thought for a moment and said, “Let’s have dinner before you leave.”
Qi Cheng and He Xiang stayed for dinner.
Huo Xunzhou and Yun Yi also rushed back at dinnertime.
At the dining table, Lin Shanchu raised her voice and said, “I have something to tell everyone.”
Everyone turned to look at her.
“My work has been arranged. I’ll be leaving tomorrow. Thank you for taking care of me during this period of time.”
At first, Lin Shanchu agreed to stay with the Yun family for a few days because Huo Xunzhou asked her for help.
If the two elders had reconciled, she would have nothing to do after that. In that case, she had to get busy with her work.
“Why are you going to leave in such a hurry?” Yun Hongru put down the chopsticks and asked Lin Shanchu carefully, “Shanshan, about that day…”
After that day, Yun Hongru actually wanted to apologize to Lin Shanchu, but he could not bring himself to do so.
He thought that Lin Shanchu suddenly wanted to leave because she was still angry about what happened that day.
Judging from his expression, Lin Shanchu knew what he was going to say and interrupted him, “No..”
