“My friend.” Lin Shanchu pointed at the signature. Qi Cheng asked, “Which friend of yours?”
Lin Shanchu replied, “You’ll know once you go.” Qi Cheng was speechless.
Lin Shanchu stuffed the invitation card into her bag.
“I’ll go for a spin and have a meal with this friend tomorrow morning and enter the film set at night.”
After a long while of hesitation, Qi Cheng asked tentatively, “Where’s President
Huo?”
“What’s wrong with him?” Lin Shanchu raised her head and looked at him curiously.
Qi Cheng had a complicated expression on his face as he asked, “Aren’t you going to spend some time with him before you enter the film set?” Lin Shanchu replied, “I accompany him every day, don’t I?”
Qi Cheng was speechless.
The next day, Lin Shanchu woke up early.
Right after she finished washing up, she saw Huo Xunzhou’s message.
Huo Xunzhou: [Do you want to go out and have fun today?]
Lin Shanchu: [I have an appointment.]
Lin Shanchu: [I received a bag of invitation cards yesterday.]
Huo Xunzhou: [Shanshan, you are really amazing.]
Huo Xunzhou’s praise was pleasing to Lin Shanchu.
She complained to Huo Xunzhou: [I wanted to attend the wine tasting, but Brother Qi refused to let me do so.]
Huo Xunzhou: [Yeah.]
Huh?
Lin Shanchu: [Am I not your beloved Shanshan anymore?]
Huo Xunzhou: [Have fun.]
Lin Shanchu: C…]
As expected, she was no longer his beloved Shanshan.
He did not speak up for her and even changed the topic.
Not only did he change the topic, but he did not bother to ask who she had an appointment with!
Pursing her lip, Lin Shanchu returned to her room to put on makeup.
She wanted to put on the most beautiful makeup and when she went out to have fun later, she would send Huo Xunzhou a photo to piss him off.
Lin Shanchu arrived at the designated place on time.
The moment she got out of the car, she saw a motorcade.
“Sister-in-law!”
It was Li Mo’s voice.
Lin Shanchu turned around and saw Li MO poking his head out of the car and waving at her.
Since Li MO had appeared, Huo Xunzhou should be nearby.
“Where’s Huo Xunzhou?” Lin Shanchu asked indifferently as she walked over to him with a sullen face.
“Behind us.” Li MO pointed at the back of the car.
The window of the back seat rolled down at this moment.
“What a coincidence, Shanshan, ” Huo Xunzhou said with a smile on his handsome face.
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
What a scheming man!
Lin Shanchu snorted and glared at him.
“Come on.” Huo Xunzhou’s smile deepened as he said in an intoxicating voice, “I’ll take you for a spin.”
Lin Shanchu was a little tempted.
Just as she was about to get into the car, Wen Huan appeared.
“I’m coming!” Wen Huan pulled up the cap on his head and looked at Lin Shanchu with anticipation.
When he sent Lin Shanchu the invitation, he deliberately did not put his name, just to find out if she would be surprised to see him.
In the end, Lin Shanchu only responded calmly, “Mhm.”
Looking at her in disbelief, Wen Huan asked, “You knew that I was the one who sent the invitation?” “Of course.”
Wen Huan was dumbstruck.
Lin Shanchu continued, “What made you think your invitation would stand out among so many exquisite invitations?”
When she saw the invitation card, she guessed that it was from Wen Huan.
Wen Huan said resignedly “Then I have great prestige.”
Lin Shanchu replied, “Yeah.”
Wen Huan burst out laughing.
“In the past two days, there have been rumors in the circle that only prestigious people managed to invite Lin Shanchu, so I joined in the fun.”
“Why is there such a rumor?” Although she would not accept invitations from ordinary people, it should not be so exaggerated.
Since when did she become so high and mighty?
“It’s because you attended the dinner a few days ago. Didn’t Cheng Fanjing and Ming Yao go there as well? Those who attended the dinner said that you only showed respect to Ming Yao…”
After a pause, Wen Huan spread his hands and continued, “Then, the rumors spread like this.”
It turned out to be like this.
No wonder she suddenly received so many invitations.
Lin Shanchu said, “You guys are so boring.”
Wen Huan looked into Huo Xunzhou’s car. “Get in the car. Almost everyone is here. We’ll leave in a while.”
Lin Shanchu followed his gaze.
Huo Xunzhou’s arm was casually placed on the edge of the car window as he looked at her with a smile.
“I’ll take your car,” Lin Shanchu said as she grabbed Wen Huan.
Huo Xunzhou narrowed his eyes slightly and his poker face looked somewhat dangerous.
“There’s too much stuff in my car.” Wen Huan shook off Lin Shanchu’s hand and said, “It can’t fit anyone.”
“It’s okay. I’m thin. I can sit if I squeeze in.” Lin Shanchu put on a fake smile and held onto Wen Huan’s arm.
Wen Huan was speechless.
“Which car is yours?” Lin Shanchu pulled Wen Huan and walked forward.
Wen Huan turned to Huo Xunzhou and gave him a look, trying to tell him that he was forced. Then, he turned back and pointed at the car in front. Lin Shanchu heard a familiar voice after taking a few steps.
“Shanshan.”
“Big Brother? You’re here too.”
Yun Yi had always been calm and composed with a smile on his face.
However, Yun Yi’s smile was a little forced today.
Lin Shanchu was a little confused. Just as she was about to ask if something had happened, a woman appeared beside Yun Yi.
“Miss Lin.”
The woman was an unfamiliar face. She was dignified and beautiful as she greeted Lin Shanchu with a smile.
“Hello.” Lin Shanchu nodded slightly in response.
Yun Yi winked vigorously at Lin Shanchu as he spoke, “Shanshan, our car is spacious. Come with us.”
Was Yun Yi kidnapped?
That was right, Yun Yi and Ming Yao were a couple.
It was obvious that this dignified beauty was interested in Yun Yi, but he did not want to be alone with her.
“Alright, I…” Lin Shanchu said as she went forward to open the car door.
“Miss Lin, get in quickly.” The woman next to Yun Yi said slowly, “I heard from Grandpa Yun that you’re cute and obedient. I really want to chat with you.” Lin Shanchu’s raised hand stopped in mid-air.
There was a hidden meaning in this woman’s words. She even deliberately mentioned Yun Hongru.
She looked back and forth between the two of them and immediately understood that this was a matchmaking session the old man had arranged for
Yun Yi.
Why would she join in the fun when someone else was having a blind date?
“That’s a shame. I haven’t had a good chat with Wen Huan in a long time. Let’s talk some other day when you’re free.” Lin Shanchu pulled Wen Huan’s arm and left.
Yun Yi was speechless.
Did he have hope on the wrong person after all?
Lin Shanchu’s phone rang as soon as she got into Wen Huan’s car.
“Miss Ming?” The call was from Ming Yao.
“Is Yun Yi with you guys?” Ming Yao asked with a hint of restrained anger.
Lin Shanchu replied, “Yeah.”
“Is there another woman beside him?” Ming Yao asked.
Lin Shanchu hesitated.
Should she tell Ming Yao about it?
“Ha!” Ming Yao sneered. “Huo Xunzhou! He did whatever it took to trick me!” Trying to defend him, Lin Shanchu asked unhappily, “What does this have to
do with Brother Xunzhou?”
