Lin Shanchu then explained to Yun Hongru, “I’ve been slacking off recently and delayed a lot of work. I have to join the crew as soon as possible.”
“Yeah, you people are quite busy in your line of work. I haven’t seen Yun Wu in a long time.” Yun Hongru nodded understandingly.
The old man seemed to have thought of something and said, “Our family has another house in the city. If you need it in the future, you can stay there at any time.”
Although the Yun family’s old mansion was in a bustling area,Capital City was too big. Yun Yi did not stay at home often for the convenience of work, so he only came back occasionally or on weekends.
As for the nature of Lin Shanchu’s work, it was needless to say.
“Don’t worry about that, Grandfather,” Huo Xunzhou suddenly said. “I’ve already made the arrangements.”
The old man raised his eyebrows and looked at him. “Fine.”
“Everyone, let’s eat,” said Grandma Yun with a smile.
As soon as she spoke, everyone started eating and changed the topic.
When no one was paying attention, the old lady whispered to the old man, ‘You don’t have to worry about Shanshan and Xunzhou.”
Patriarch Yun was brooding over Huo Xunzhou’s mother’s marriage. He was worried that the old lady would think that he wanted to interfere in Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s affair.
“I’m not trying to interfere in their affair…” he explained anxiously.
“That’s good.” The old lady picked up another piece of food for him.
The old man pointed at Huo Xunzhou with his chin and said, “Look at how worthless your grandson is.”
Huo Xunzhou was putting food into Lin Shanchu’s plate and asked her how it tasted. Lin Shanchu nodded and politely said it was delicious with a smile. Seeing this, the old lady laughed. Then, she turned her head and pretended to be serious as she glared at the old man. “Eat your food. Don’t worry about the young people.”
The old man quickly retracted his gaze and ate his meal obediently.
The next morning, Lin Shanchu packed her things and left the Yun family’s mansion.
The old man was busy as a bee after he got up early in the morning. He took out a few packets of tea leaves and several bottles of wine that he had saved and insisted that Lin Shanchu had to take them with her.
“Grandpa, I appreciate your kindness, but I’m not going to take anything.” After Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou declared their relationship, she started calling him “Grandpa”.
The old man refused to listen to Lin Shanchu and insisted the servant on stuffing them into her luggage.
“Just take them. When you’re tired, you can drink tea. When you’re free, you can drink wine.”
Lin Shanchu frowned slightly, crossed her arms and looked at the old man for a moment. Suddenly, she understood something.
“Grandpa, it’s not like I’ll stop coming here. I’ll come over with Huo Xunzhou again after I’m done with work.”
The old man was probably still bickering over what happened that day, fearing that Lin Shanchu would be angry and stop coming to the Yun family’s mansion again.
As expected, the old man’s eyes lit up when he heard Lin Shanchu’s words.
“Really?”
“It’s a deal!”
Yun Hongru tried to confirm with her again, looking as if he was afraid that she would go back on her word.
“Yes.” Lin Shanchu raised her hand and said, “I swear.”
The old man immediately beamed with joy. “Okay, okay, okay. Just leave those things behind. Let’s drink together when you come over next time.”
Huo Xunzhou’s mother’s incident had brought serious trauma to the Yun family.
It had been more than twenty years since the incident, but the wound did not gradually improve with the passage of time. Instead, it festered day by day. And, the number of wounds increased day by day.
When Huo Xunzhou returned to the family, they transferred the debt they owed their daughter to Huo Xunzhou.
They became cautious about everything related to Huo Xunzhou including her, who had nothing to do with the Yun family. contemporary romance
Because of Huo Xunzhou, everyone in the Yun family treated her with kindness.
This world was indeed not decent, where fairness and true feelings did not exist everywhere.
However, they really existed in this world.
Lin Shanchu now felt that this was a world worth living in.
“Alright.” Lin Shanchu agreed seriously.
Lin Shanchu had to go to the film set for the interview today. After leaving the Yun family, she went straight to the film set. Huo Xunzhou had made arrangements in advance and sent her luggage to the house he had arranged for her.
The interview went smoothly.
With her background as an actress, Lin Shanchu achieved great results in “Top Feast” and had a fanbase. Hence, the director was satisfied with her and insisted on signing the contract with her on the same day.
After signing the contract, she received the script.
This costume drama about food was adapted from a well-known novel.
Although Lin Shanchu had never read it before, she had heard of it and had a general understanding of the story.
The read-through was scheduled for the day after tomorrow.
Lin Shanchu returned home. After reading the script, she went to read the original novel overnight.
It was already the next morning when she finished reading the novel.
She could not take it anymore and fell asleep with her phone in her arms.
He Xiang came to call her for breakfast. She closed her eyes and replied, “I don’t want to eat.”
He Xiang quietly pushed the door open and saw Lin Shanchu sleeping with her phone and the script scattered on the bed. She guessed that Lin Shanchu had probably been reading the script the whole night.
She did not wake Lin Shanchu up and left quietly.
However, Lin Shanchu woke up not long after He Xiang left.
She was woken up by the vibration of her phone.
The phone fell on her chest with obvious vibration, causing her to wake up immediately.
Lin Shanchu opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling for a while. Then, she finally snapped out of a daze and turned on the phone.
Ming Yao: [When are you going to ask me out for coffee?]
Lin Shanchu tapped on the profile picture displayed on the notification. After confirming that it was Ming Yao, she sat up in bed.
Lin Shanchu: [Let’s do it now. Miss Ming, are you free now?]
If she wanted to ask for someone’s help, she should be proactive and act like one.
Ming Yao: [Yes.]
Lin Shanchu: [Miss Ming, do you have a cafe or restaurant that you want to go to?]
Ming Yao: [No.]
Lin Shanchu: [See you at Boya Hotel.]
Ming Yao replied with an “OK” emoji.
Lin Shanchu tossed her phone aside and got out of bed.
She washed up as quickly as she could, took out her clothes from the closet and gestured in front of the mirror for a while. In the end, she opened the door, stuck her head out and shouted, “He Xiang, come over quickly!”
“Sister Lin, you’re awake?”
He Xiang heard the voice and ran over. When she entered the room, she saw Lin Shanchu’s bed was full of clothes.
Lin Shanchu was holding a dress in front of the mirror.
“He Xiang, what do you think of this dress?” As she gestured, she turned around to ask for Hexiang’s opinion.
He Xiang nodded. “It’s okay.”
Lin Shanchu picked up another dress and asked, “What about this one?”
He Xiang continued to nod and said, “It’s okay too.”
Just like that, Lin Shanchu repeated the same actions and questions, practically showing off all the clothes.
“Sister Lin, are you going on a date with Teacher Huo?”
He Xiang rarely saw Lin Shanchu dress up so grandly. Other than a date, she could not think of any other reason.
“No.” Lin Shanchu turned to look at the clothes on the bed. The more she looked, the more dissatisfied she became. She opened the wardrobe again.
There were still many clothes sent by brand owners in the wardrobe..
