Huo Xunzhou waited for a while, but Lin Shanchu did not reply.
She was probably really planning to ignore him for the time being.
Huo Xunzhou put his phone aside and slowly looked up at Huo Zhuxiu.
Huo Zhuxiu stared menacingly at him, as if he was looking at his mortal enemy.
Huo Xunzhou smiled mysteriously.
He pushed the documents on the table in front of Huo Zhuxiu. “Announce the contents of these documents or hand Huo Corporation over to me. It’s all up to you.”
“Have you thought about what to choose?” His magnetic, husky voice sounded gentle when he smiled, and his serious questioning tone carried the consideration of a junior.
However, his actions were neither considerate nor docile. In Huo Zhuxiu’s eyes, Huo Xunzhou was a man with wild ambitions, trying to take his life!
“You’re threatening me!”
“To be more precise…” Huo Xunzhou’s expression turned serious as he said, “I’m informing you.”
“Great, as expected of my child.” Huo Zhuxiu laughed in rage.
Huo Xunzhou’s expression turned cold.
After he raised his wrist to look at the time, he grew jaded and said, “I still have things to do later.”
Huo Zhuxiu’s face tensed up and the veins on his forehead bulged as he took a few deep breaths. As if he had finally made up his mind, he said, “I’ll personally take you to Huo Corporation next Monday!” He enunciated every word in that sentence.
He never let go of his hand on the table.
The more readily he agreed, the more aggrieved and unwilling he felt.
Huo Xunzhou stood up.
“See you on Monday.”
He left without even taking the documents on the table.
Huo Zhuxiu’s gaze followed his figure to the door. After that, he averted his gaze and looked at the table.
The words “violation”, “tax” and “injury” on the documents ignited his anger.
Enraged, he waved his hand and threw all the documents on the table to the ground.
As if he was not done venting his anger, he raised his hand and flipped the table over. Next, he turned around and kicked the chair over. Then, he smashed every breakable object in the room as if he had gone crazy.
Outside the door.
Huo Xunzhou stood with his back facing the door. No matter how good the soundproofing was, it could not block the noise made by Huo Zhuxiu.
Even the butler came over after hearing the noise.
“Young Master, President Huo, he…”
Huo Xunzhou gave the butler an eloquent look before striding away.
After Huo Xunzhou left the Huo Family, he went to look for Lin Shanchu.
He Xiang opened the door and saw Huo Xunzhou. Then, she turned around happily and told Lin Shanchu, “Sister Lin, it’s Teacher Huo.”
Lin Shanchu was curled up on the sofa choosing the scripts Qi Cheng had sent over. She turned around and glanced at him before looking away.
Huo Xunzhou walked over and saw that she did not want to talk to him, so he smiled and sat down beside her.
“Shanshan?”
“I’m busy!”
Lin Shanchu just moved to the side without looking at him.
Huo Xunzhou sat quietly next to her and remained silent.
After a while, Lin Shanchu couldn’t help but turn to look at him. “What brings you here?”
“I’m going to take you to practice driving, ” Huo Xunzhou said leisurely.
“It’s too cold. I’m not going.” Lin Shanchu turned around and continued reading the script.
Huo Xunzhou did not try to persuade her. Instead, he pointed at the script nearest to her.
“You like this?”
“I like this.”
Lin Shanchu picked up the script and showed it to Huo Xunzhou with a smile.
Huo Xunzhou skimmed through the introduction and narrowed his eyes. “A romantic drama?”
Lin Shanchu nodded seriously and said, “If we’re going to choose an actor according to the male lead’s design, we must find a young and handsome one. I feel that Ji Yuan is very suitable…”
Huo Xunzhou said expressionlessly, “Ji Yuan is bad at acting and the crew won’t want him.”
Lin Shanchu scowled at him. “Ji Yuan is your employee after all. How can you say that about him?”
Huo Xunzhou replied, “I’m telling the truth.”
“Sounds like sour grapes to me.” Lin Shanchu deliberately wrinkled her nose and sniffed.
Huo Xunzhou pinched her nose.
“Let go!” Lin Shanchu, whose nose was pinched, spoke in a muffled voice.
Huo Xunzhou leaned over and kissed her.
Lin Shanchu struggled a little.
“He Xiang…”
“She went back to her room.”
It was no wonder Lin Shanchu kept raising the salary of her assistant. Even he wanted to give this sensible assistant a raise.
Eventually, Lin Shanchu followed Huo Xunzhou outside to practice driving.
The paparazzi took photos of the two of them practicing driving.
The netizens commented:
[The relationship between the two of them seems to be quite stable.]
[Best Actor Huo’s legs seem to be recovering well. It looks like Lin Shanchu doesn’t need to do fitness training anymore…] [I feel the wheels of the car rolling over my face.]
Lin Shanchu’s fans commented: [Sister, I can drive too. I’ll teach you!] Huo Xunzhou’s fans commented:
[It appeared! The scene of turning the steering wheel with one hand!] Only the non-fans were seriously shipping the couple.
Huo Xunzhou accompanied Lin Shanchu to practice driving for the entire afternoon. Then, he took her to a restaurant for dinner in the evening.
“Why are you so free today?” Lin Shanchu asked him during dinner.
“What can be more important than Shanshan?” Huo Xunzhou slowly peeled a prawn and placed it on her plate.
Lin Shanchu was speechless.
This joke would probably last a lifetime.
Lin Shanchu expressionlessly stuffed the prawn into her mouth.
Huo Xunzhou couldn’t help but laugh. After he finished laughing, he explained to her seriously, “I have to report to Huo Corporation next Monday.”
Lin Shanchu smiled expressionlessly as she said, “Your dad is quite realistic. Seeing that your legs have recovered, he’s going to take you to work at the company.”
Huo Xunzhou replied, “I threatened him.”
“Ah!” Lin Shanchu exclaimed and leaned over curiously. “How did you threaten him?”
“His hands are not clean. As long as I spend some time and investigate him carefully, I can always have a hold over him.”
“So you’ve been doing this for the past four months?”
After a pause, Huo Xunzhou asked, “Am I that amazing in your heart?”
Lin Shanchu raised her chin proudly and replied, “Of course, Brother Xunzhou, you are the smartest.”
Huo Xunzhou lowered his eyes and continued to peel prawns for her. His voice was a little lower than before.
“I’ve been preparing for this day for many years even before I returned to the Huo family.”
Huo Zhuxiu was a man who would never let someone have a hold over him easily.
By the same token, with Huo Zhuxiu’s abilities, he would never allow his son to be in exile for so many years.
If Huo Zhuxiu had the intention of finding Huo Xunzhou’s whereabouts, he would not have been out in exile for so many years unless Huo Zhuxiu did not look for him on purpose and wanted him to fend for himself outside.
Similarly, with the Yun family’s power, it was impossible for them to be unable to find a child after so many years unless there was a bigger force preventing them from finding Huo Xunzhou.
The truth was there, but no one mentioned it.
Lin Shanchu already thought of this possibility when she first found out about Huo Xunzhou’s background.
However, Huo Xunzhou did not bring up the topic, so Lin Shanchu did not take the initiative to ask him either..
