Terminally Ill Female Lead Of An Angst Novel Went Rampant After Her Awakening

Chapter 7

“Okay.”

Lin Shanchu replied before walking toward Huo Xunzhou.

Huo Xunzhou looked up at her.

Lin Shanchu seemed to have realized something. She walked behind him and helped him push his wheelchair.

She already understood the situation.

Nan Mu had lied to her.

From the very beginning, Huo Xunzhou was the one who was going to the party.

However, the plot of the original novel was different.

In the original book, after Huo Xunzhou retired from the entertainment industry for a year, he did appear in public, but not by attending a cocktail party.

This was not the most important thing.

Most importantly, she was planning to ruin Lu Shiyuan and Tang Qidai’s reputations at the party tonight.

If Huo Xunzhou were to get involved…

Lin Shanchu couldn’t help but frown, deep in thought.

The woman’s worried expression was reflected on the elevator wall.

“What did Nan Mu tell you?” Huo Xunzhou asked thoughtfully.

Lin Shanchu was in a daze, so her reaction was slower than usual.

When she finally realized that Huo Xunzhou had asked her a question, the latter spoke again. “You don’t have to go if you don’t want to accompany me to the party.”

His tone was calm and cold, but it was filled with seriousness and respect.

This was a man who was completely different from Lu Shiyuan.

“I want to go with you.” Lin Shanchu quickly shook her head.

The elevator fell into a brief silence.

Lin Shanchu immediately reacted. Her words were a little ambiguous.

“What I meant was…” She tried to explain.

“Thank you,” Huo Xunzhou said.

Lin Shanchu was speechless.

Whatever. There was no need to explain.

Everyone knew that she was a hopeless romantic and that she only loved Lu Shiyuan.

…

The chauffeur was waiting at the elevator in the underground parking lot.

When he saw Huo Xunzhou and Lin Shanchu coming out, he walked over to help Huo Xunzhou push his wheelchair.

Lin Shanchu was about to let go when Huo Chengzhou raised his hand slightly and motioned for the driver not to push him.

The chauffeur was stunned for a moment before looking up at Lin Shanchu.

His eyes were sharp, and there was a deep scar at the corner of his eye. He had a murderous aura and didn’t look like an ordinary driver.

Lin Shanchu pushed Huo Xunzhou to the front of the car. The chauffeur came over and helped Huo Xunzhou into the car. After folding the wheelchair, he single-handedly placed the wheelchair weighing more than ten kilograms into the trunk.

At the entrance of the hotel, the chauffeur took out the wheelchair and helped Huo Xunzhou into it.

Then, like an emotionless robot, he retreated to the side with an expressionless face.

Lin Shanchu pushed Huo Xunzhou in while the chauffeur followed behind.

It seemed that he was a part-time bodyguard.

They got out of the elevator.

Huo Xunzhou said to Lin Shanchu, “I’m going to the washroom. Wait for me at the door.”

Lin Shanchu nodded.

The moment the chauffeur pushed Huo Xunzhou’s away, Lu Shiyuan and Tang Qidai appeared immediately.

The inevitable plot still came.

The system said, [Lu Shiyuan is here! We’re following the plot now!]

The system, which had been silent when Huo Xunzhou was around, popped up after Lu Shiyuan appeared.

Tang Qidai held onto Lu Shiyuan’s arm and kept looking at the main entrance.

After seeing Lin Shanchu, the smile on Tang Qidai’s face deepened.

She tugged on Lu Shiyuan’s arm and asked softly, “Brother Shiyuan, why is Shanshan here too?”

However, Lu Shiyuan ignored her.

She followed Lu Shiyuan’s line of sight and realized that Lu Shiyuan had already seen Lin Shanchu.

Not only that, but his eyes were also glued to Lin Shanchu.

Lin Shanchu did look a little different today.

She was dressed up like a succubus.

Did she think that she could capture Brother Shiyuan’s heart like this?

Tang Qidai’s eyes flashed with disdain.

When she walked up to him, Tang Qidai pretended to be surprised. “Shanshan?”

Lin Shanchu’s red dress made her look as beautiful as a person who had walked out of a painting. Hence, she had long attracted the attention of many people.

The surrounding people who knew what was going on had already begun to whisper.

“Is the one in the red dress Lin Shanchu?”

“Yeah. I almost didn’t recognize her just now.”

“Tang Qidai is here too. This is going to be a good show.”

“Lin Shanchu is the real fiancée. Tang Qidai’s going to get humiliated today.”

Although they were whispering, their voices were not soft at all.

The three of them heard the whispers.

Tang Qidai pursed her lips, looking as if she was greatly humiliated. Then, she let go of Lu Shiyuan’s hand.

Lu Shiyuan felt Tang Qidai’s shift in movement. The slight shock in his eyes when he saw Lin Shanchu completely vanished at that moment.

He frowned and questioned Lin Shanchu coldly, “What are you doing here?”

“I’m here to attend the party.” Lin Shanchu crossed her arms, her eyes cold.

Lu Shiyuan took half a step forward and warned her in a low voice.

“You’ve challenged my bottom line time and time again, but I’ve let you off on the account of our long-term friendship. Not only did you not apologize to Qidai, but you even embarrassed her at the party. Don’t blame me for being ruthless this time!”

“Long-term friendship? Ahaha…”

Lin Shanchu chuckled softly.

She stepped back and put some distance between her and Lu Shiyuan. Then, she raised her voice and said, “When I was young, my father taught me that a noble person should fulfill the wishes of others. Since you and Ms. Tang are in love with each other, I’m willing to break off the engagement with you.”

“Shanshan, you’ve misunderstood…” Tang Qidai looked flustered. “Brother Shiyuan, please explain to Shanshan. We’re not in that kind of relationship.”

There was a burst of exclamations from their surroundings.

The well-known hopeless romantic actually took the initiative to call off the engagement.

“A misunderstanding?” Lin Shanchu turned to look around her. “What do you think, everyone? Does Lu Shiyuan like Ms. Tang or me more?”

This time, no one dared to make a sound.

Everyone loved a good show.

However, no one wanted to offend Lu Shiyuan.

Anyone with eyes could tell that the person Lu Shiyuan liked was Tang Qidai.

However, this kind of thing was not presentable and glorious.

“Lin Shanchu! Have you had enough!” Lu Shiyuan’s expression was extremely dark.

As a female villain, Tang Qidai had always been doing her job to sow discord between Lin Shanchu and Lu Shiyuan. Naturally, she would not let go of this opportunity.

Lu Shiyuan was already at the peak of his anger, so Tang Qidai naturally wanted to add fuel to the fire.

She wore an expression of empathy despite having been wronged.

“Shanshan, the three of us grew up together. What can’t we talk about face to face? You’ve misunderstood me and Brother Shiyuan. I’ll try my best not to hang out with Brother Shiyuan in the future, okay?”

“Qidai, it’s useless to talk to her about this.”

Lu Shiyuan reached out, wanting to pull Lin Shanchu away.

Lin Shanchu retreated away immediately. The fear of Lu Shiyuan that was ingrained in her bones attacked her in waves once again.

At this moment, a hand reached out from the side and clamped down on Lu Shiyuan’s arm.

Lin Shanchu’s heart calmed down.

She turned around and saw that it was Huo Xunzhou’s chauffeur who stopped Lu Shiyuan.

Huo Xunzhou turned his wheelchair and came to her side.

Lin Shanchu felt at ease for no reason.

“Mr. Huo,” she called out in a low voice.

“Why aren’t you calling me Brother Xunzhou?” Huo Xunzhou looked up, calmness present in his alluring eyes. He sounded very serious as well.

Lin Shanchu was confused, to say the least.

The system exclaimed, [What the hell? What kind of plot is this? This never happened in the novel!]
