The two of them returned to the city the next day. Only then did Yun Yi find out that Huo Xunzhou had come back.
On that night, Yun Yi held a banquet at Boya Hotel and invited Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu to dinner.
The two elders of the Yun family also attended the banquet.
Yun Yi was the first to notice the ring on Lin Shanchu’s finger.
“Big Brother, does it look nice?” Lin Shanchu generously showed the ring to
Yun Yi.
Yun Yi glanced at Huo Xunzhou and smiled. “It’s just an ordinary ring, but it looks good on you.”
Huo Xunzhou was speechless.
Lin Shanchu looked at Huo Xunzhou’s expression and burst out laughing.
Only then did the old couple of the Yun family notice the ring on Lin Shanchu’s finger.
Everyone in the Yun family was smart. Seeing that the two people involved did not say anything, they did not take the initiative to ask the question.
“Shanshan, your fingers are beautiful,” The old lady praised Lin Shanchu with a smile. “You’ll look good wearing any ring.”
The old man echoed, “That’s right.”
Lin Shanchu was delighted after being praised. Then, she turned around and smiled ostentatiously at Huo Xunzhou.
Huo Xunzhou suddenly held her hand and said solemnly, “I proposed to
Shanshan, and she agreed.”
Yun Yi said, “Congratulations.”
The old couple of the Yun family grinned from ear to ear.
“Good things come in pairs.”
“Yeah, Xunzhou’s legs are healed too and you two are planning to get married. That’s great.”
“When are you guys planning to hold the wedding? We can help you prepare in advance.”
Everyone was puzzled.
Lin Shanchu’s parents had passed away a long time ago. Who else was there in her family?
Lin Shanchu explained, “I still have an uncle who has been overseas all these years.”
Her uncle had been abroad over the years and was busy with work. In addition to the time difference, she contacted him via email most of the time. She would send emails to him regularly to update him on her current situation.
Lin Shanchu had become busier this year and sent fewer emails. When she had time, she would directly send Lin Suguang WeChat messages.
However, Lin Shanchu had not contacted Lin Suguang for a while.
It was because he had gone to the primeval forest to collect local cultural materials.
In the beginning, he could still occasionally reply to her messages. However, she was unable to contact him after he entered the depths of the forest probably because there was no signal.
The old man nodded in agreement. “We certainly need to discuss this matter with your guardians.”
After dinner, Huo Xunzhou drove Lin Shanchu home.
Lin Shanchu sat in the passenger seat and sent a message to Lin Suguang.

She raised her hand with the ring on it and took a photo before sending the message to him.
After waiting for a while, there was still no reply from the other end.
Lin Suguang often lost contact with her in the past, but this time, it had been a little long.
Lin Shanchu frowned worriedly.
“What’s wrong?” Huo Xunzhou asked her when he noticed her unusual behavior.
“I haven’t been able to contact my uncle for many days.”
“I’ll get someone to look for him.”
Lin Shanchu pondered for a moment before she said, “Let’s talk about it tomorrow. Maybe my uncle will contact me tonight.”
In the original book, her uncle’s death was caused by Lu Shiyuan.
Now that the plot had changed over and over again, her uncle’s ending would definitely be altered.
Her uncle should be fine.
“Yeah,” Huo Xunzhou replied and did not say anything else.
He drove Lin Shanchu home and stayed for a while before returning to the Yun family’s old mansion.
As soon as Huo Xunzhou left, Lin Shanchu received a call from Lin Suguang.
“Did you buy the ring yourself?” Lin Suguang asked. “It looks pretty good.”
Lin Shanchu replied, “Huo Xunzhou gave it to me. He proposed to me.”
Lin Suguang fell silent for three seconds before he said, “Oh, a diamond ring for a proposal. I didn’t expect him to be so vulgar.”
Puzzled, Lin Shanchu thought that was not what he said just now.
Lin Shanchu explained softly, “Actually… it looks pretty good.”
There was no response on Lin Suguang’s end for a while.
Was he angry?
Her uncle was not such a petty person.
Lin Shanchu said, “Uncle?”
Lin Suguang replied, “I’m booking a plane ticket. Give me a moment.”
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
After a while, Lin Suguang’s voice sounded again. “I’ve already booked a flight back to the country. I’m leaving now. I’ll arrive at the airport tomorrow morning and reach Capital City the day after tomorrow.”
“There’s no need to be in such a hurry. Rest for a few days before you set off.” Lin Shanchu felt that the time was a little rushed and was afraid that he would be tired.
“It’s okay. I’m not tired.” Lin Suguang said with a laugh, “I’m rushing back to see my future niece-in-law.”
Lin Shanchu chatted with him for a while more before hanging up the phone.
She recalled her uncle’s tone just now. Her uncle seemed to have a problem with Huo Xunzhou?
The next day, Huo Xunzhou became trending.
Some paparazzi took photos of him taking Lin Shanchu home.
The hashtag #HuoXunzhouDroveLinShanchuHome was tending.
As a public figure, Huo Xunzhou always had good general appeal. After his car accident, many people felt sorry for him.
The netizens congratulated Huo Xunzhou.
Someone started to slander Lin Shanchu.
[Now that Huo Xunzhou’s legs have recovered, will he still like Lin Shanchu?]
[If there’s a better choice, everyone would choose it, right?]
[I’m waiting for their breakup to show up on the trending list.]
[Is Best Actor Huo going to inherit the family business next? Tch, the perfect match will eventually come.]
Many of Huo Xunzhou’s fans had been following him since his debut. The fans who had seen much of life were careful enough not to mention Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu’s relationship. They just congratulated Huo Xunzhou on the recovery of his legs.
Fans who gradually gone into hiding after Huo Xunzhou left the industry also showed up.
Some generous fans held a lucky draw event to win a luxury car, which was even livelier than the New Year.
Lin Shanchu was not interested in any of this. Instead, she was curious about what her fans were thinking.
Lin Shanchu casually tapped on a fan’s Weibo post that tagged her.
Shanshan Wife’s Little Darling: [Sob, sob, sob. Sister is going to fall out of love.
I really pity her.]
Lin Shanchu was speechless. The netizen was really her caring little darling.
Lin Shanchu went back and tapped on another fan’s Weibo post.
Round Bunny: [They’re both decent people. It’s good if they break up amicably.]
Lin Shanchu was speechless. An amicable breakup?
Her fans never let her down.
Lin Shanchu crossed her arms and thought for a while before sending Huo Xunzhou a WeChat message.
Lin Shanchu: [Don’t announce the news of our marriage for the time being.]
Huo Xunzhou: [Okay.]
Lin Shanchu: [ [shy kiss.jpg]]
Huo Xunzhou curled his lip and sent her an emoticon that rejected kissing.
On the opposite side, Huo Zhuxiu clenched his fists and glared at Huo Xunzhou as he chided, “You were acting like you didn’t want to fight for anything for more than a year. You must be doing this for today!” Lin Shanchu: [[l’m angry and ignoring you.jpg]]
Huo Xunzhou: [ [Here you go, little flower.jpg]]
Huo Zhuxiu became angrier when he saw Huo Xunzhou was looking down at his phone and ignoring him.
“Yeah,” Huo Xunzhou replied casually with his gaze landed on the screen, waiting for Lin Shanchu’s reply..
