Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
No one saw it coming.
Tang Qidai had been a third wheel in between Lin Shanchu and Lu Shiyuan for many years, and the public had been following the drama for many years.
Recently, Lin Shanchu had shown signs of counterattacking.
She had gotten into a conflict with Tang Qidai in public, but this her first time laying hands on Tang Qidai in public.
It was somewhat unexpected, but people felt that “the day had finally come”. Lu Shiyuan glared at Lin Shanchu in disbelief. “Apologize to Qidai!”
“If you still have any shame, you should ask Tang Qidai apologize to Hexiang first.” Lin Shanchu smiled contemptuously.
Lu Shiyuan gritted his teeth as he asked, “If that assistant of yours had behaved herself and hadn’t spouted nonsense, would Qidai have hit her?”
When did you hear He Xiang scolding Tang Qidai?” Lin Shanchu looked at the employees who were watching them from afar and shouted, “Did you all hear that?”
Lu Shiyuan also followed Lin Shanchu’s line of sight.
The employees were enjoying the drama unfold.
Some bold people were even holding their phones to record videos.
However, they ran away in fear when Lu Shiyuan looked over.
They could tell their lives were more important than watching the drama unfold.
“No one answered.” Lin Shanchu averted her gaze with a smile on her face and said mockingly, “No one can prove that He Xiang scolded Tang Qidai.” Lu Shiyuan frowned slightly and began to have doubts.
He Xiang was just an assistant, yet she dared to scold Tang Qidai in front of him?
Lu Shiyuan’s silence made Tang Qidai panic.
“Brother Shiyuan, I can let her get away with this slap, but I can’t accept this groundless slander!”
She pulled Lu Shiyuan’s arm and bit her lips, pretending to be wronged.
Distressed flashed past Lu Shiyuan’s eyes as he said, ” Qidai, don’t worry. I won’t let anyone bully you or let you suffer any wrongs.”
Tang Qidai weakly threw herself into Lu Shiyuan’s arms and bawled, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
Lu Shiyuan coaxed Tang Qidai before pointing his finger at He Xiang.
“You there, apologize to Qidai.”
Lu Shiyuan had been in charge of Lu Corporation for many years and had the aura of a superior.
Even Lin Shanchu was afraid of him deeD down, not to mention He Xianz.
He Xiang had already calmed down.
She bit her lip and stared intently at Tang Qidai. Her heart filled with anger and hatred, to the point that she did not even realize that blood was seeping out of her lips.
Lu Shiyuan’s current lofty attitude was exactly the same as when Tang Qidai had beaten her up on that day.
The fear in the depths of his heart once again broke through He Xiang’s psychological defense.
“Yes…”
He Xiang was unable to control herself and was about to apologize.
However, Lin Shanchu held her hand as soon as she opened her mouth.
She looked at Lin Shanchu blankly.
Lin Shanchu stood in front of her.
“Lu Shiyuan, you really can’t change your habit of bullying women, can you?”
Lu Shiyuan cared about his dignity the most, so Lin Shanchu’s words were undoubtedly touched a sore point with him.
“Shut up!” He clenched his fists again.
“Right. Anyvvay, this is not your first time bullying women without knowing right from wrong.”
Lin Shanchu looked at Lu Shiyuan provocatively.
“B*tch!” Lu Shiyuan raised his hand in a fit of rage.
Lin Shanchu could have dodged it.
Her heart and her brain were sending her messages to dodge it.
However, she seemed to have been nailed to the spot and could not move at all.
She even closed her eyes reflexively.
However, the expected slap did not land on her face.
“Lu Shiyuan, why are you like this? How could you lay your hands on such a beautiful girl?”
Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Shanchu opened her eyes.
Huo Chaosheng held Lu Shiyuan’s arm in mid-air and turned to smile at Lin Shanchu.
“Silly girl, why didn’t you dodge it?”
Just like her, Huo Chaosheng always wore a poker face and was good at disguising himself.
It was clearly an insincere smile, but no one could detect any flaws in that smile.
Lin Shanchu did not like this side of herself, and she hated this side of Huo Chaosheng.
However, she felt that Huo Chaosheng was not that much of an eyesore at that moment.
Lin Shanchu did not smile, but she looked calm as she said seriously, “I’ll definitely dodge it next time.”
Huo Chaosheng was obviously taken aback because he knew that people like them often spoke more sincerely when they were not smiling.
But soon, Huo Chaosheng smiled again.
“I said you’re a silly girl, but you really took it to heart and even intend to do it again. ”
He smiled and spoke in an unrestrained tone like a playboy.
Back in the training camp, Lin Shanchu had more than once heard the trainees talk behind Huo Chaosheng’s back that he had the most charming look.
Lin Shanchu’s lips twitched expressionlessly. “Society is dangerous. Scumbags are always everywhere, aren’t they?”
“Oh.” Huo Chaosheng pretended that he had been taught a lesson.
The two people chatted for a long time as if no one else was around. Finally, Lu Shiyuan got the opportunity to speak.
First, he flung Huo Chaosheng’s arm away.
“Huo Chaosheng?”
Huo Chaosheng took two steps back. He then crossed his arms and sized up Lu Shiyuan as if he was evaluating a product.
“You are Lu Shiyuan?”
Lin Shanchu’s gaze swept back and forth between the two of them.
How did Lu Shiyuan and Huo Chaosheng get acquainted?
Noticing Lin Shanchu’s confusion, Huo Chaosheng took the initiative to explain himself. “He wanted to sign a contract with me, so I came to his company to have a look, but I didn’t expect you’d be here. Fate really brought us together.”
Huo Chaosheng spoke seriously.
Lin Shanchu almost believed him, but she saw the smile in his eyes.
Huo Chaosheng’s statement was probably a half-truth.
It was true that Lu Shiyuan wanted to sign a contract with Huo Chaosheng.
After SOF disbanded, Huo Chaosheng returned to the country and had yet to sign a contract with any company.
With Huo Chaosheng’s popularity, any company that signed a contract with him would prosper significantly for sure.
Lu Shiyuan was now at the stage where he wanted to make achievements and regain power.
Before Lin Shanchu could say anything, Lu Shiyuan said to Huo Chaosheng, “Let’s talk in my office.”
“Sure,” Huo Chaosheng replied.
Lu Shiyuan led Huo Chaosheng to the elevator.
Lin Shanchu and the others also wanted to leave.
The ascending elevator arrived first.
Huo Chaosheng followed Lu Shiyuan into the elevator.
Just when Lu Shiyuan was about to press the button to close the door, Huo Chaosheng suddenly poked his head out.
“Silly girl, why aren’t you coming in?”
Lin Shanchu was standing in front of the other elevator and looking up at the elevator floor display as if she had not heard anything.
He Xiang gently nudged Lin Shanchu’s arm and reminded her n a low voice, “Sister Lin, I think Teacher Huo is calling you.”
Lin Shanchu heard him, but she had to pretend that she did not hear him.
If she responded to Huo Chaosheng, wouldn’t she be admitting that she was a silly girl?
She was not stupid.
“The elevator is here.” Lin Shanchu stepped into the elevator.
He Xiang and Qi Cheng turned around and bade farewell to Huo Chaosheng. “Goodbye, Teacher Huo.”
Huo Chaosheng had a high status. Lin Shanchu could ignore him, but the two of them did not dare to do so..
