Chapter 395: Why Is It You?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Shanchu closed her eyes silently after seeing that Zhai Ci’s punch was about to land on her.
She felt a little regretful.
What if the male lead did not show up out of nowhere?
Wouldn’t she have to suffer a punch for nothing?
Zhai Ci hated her so much that he threw the punch with all his might.
Lin Shanchu started to feel sorry for herself.
Forget it. If the male lead did not show up out of nowhere, she would just lie on the ground and play dead after being punched. Then, she would seize the opportunity to extort Zhai Ci.
Anyway, she could not suffer a loss.
After closing her eyes, his hearing became sharp.
She heard someone ask, “Zhai Ci, what are you doing?
She also heard familiar footsteps.
The expected punch did not land on her and the surroundings became abnormally quiet in an instant.
Lin Shanchu opened her eyes curiously and saw Huo Xunzhou kicking Zhai Ci away.
Stunned, she asked, “Why is it you?”
“Are you alright?” Huo Xunzhou was not in the mood to answer her question. He held her shoulder and looked her up and down to make sure she was fine.
Huo Chaosheng pushed through the crowd and ran over happily. “Third
Brother! What brings you here?”
Huo Xunzhou let go of Lin Shanchu and looked at Huo Chaosheng indifferently. “What time is it already? Aren’t you going home yet?”
“I’ll be home soon.” Huo Chaosheng asked with a fawning smile. “Are you here to PICK me up f
Huo Xunzhou left without saying a word.
After walking for some distance, Huo Chaosheng turned around and boasted to Lin Shanchu. “My brother is here to pick me up. I’ll be leaving now.” Lin Shanchu was speechless. She felt like she was an extra.
Just then, Li MO came out of nowhere and said, “Sister-in-law, I’ll take you home.”
Lin Shanchu nodded and walked out with Li Mo. “Why are you guys here?”
“Big Brother called me to pick you up, so I came.”
As long as Huo Xunzhou did not show his feelings for Lin Shanchu in front of a third person, he would not be controlled by the plot.
Therefore, Huo Xunzhou must have returned and found out that she had followed Huo Chaosheng to the clubhouse. He was worried that something might happen to her and that he would not be able to come in and find her, so he informed Li Mo.
In that case, a question arose.
Why was Huo Xunzhou able to block Zhai Ci’s punch for her in front of everyone just now?
Lin Shanchu still could not figure out this question even after walking out of the clubhouse.
Huo Chaosheng and Huo Xunzhou came out first. Lin Shanchu looked up and saw the two brothers getting into the same car.
Lin Shanchu turned her head inadvertently and saw Lu Shiyuan, who was supposed to appear in the clubhouse to block the punch for her, behind the billboard in front of her.
Lu Shiyuan peeked in Huo Xunzhou’s direction with a trace of doubt in his expression.
Lin Shanchu said to Li MO, “Wait for me here.”
She quietly walked behind Lu Shiyuan.
After watching Huo Xunzhou drive away, Lu Shiyuan turned around to leave.
However, he saw Lin Shanchu standing behind him right after he turned around.
“You must be surprised, right? It was supposed to be your turn to show up in the plot, but Huo Xunzhou appeared instead.”
Lin Shanchu stood in the shadows and her gentle smile exuded a chilling aura.
“So what if Huo Xunzhou appeared?” Lu Shiyuan snorted coldly. “Didn’t he leave with Huo Chaosheng in the end?”
Lin Shanchu replied, “Only incompetent people will always find fault with others.”
Lin Shanchu’s words touched a sore spot with Lu Shiyuan. Helpless, he said angrily, “Just you wait.”
Lu Shiyuan planned to escape from the scene after saying those harsh words.
Lin Shanchu followed him and said sharply, “That stupid system is still as useless as before. It can’t even help you with such a small matter.” Lu Shiyuan stopped in his tracks as shock flashed across his eyes.
Lin Shanchu laughed.
She had guessed correctly.
Lu Shiyuan Imew that he was the male lead because of that useless system.
Character restoration system?
In those days when that stupid system was bound to her, the missions that it gave her were all beneficial to Lu Shiyuan.
It was better to directly call it the angst male lead support system.
Moreover, Lu Shiyuan had already slept with Xia Jinmeng. His only so-called advantage of being physically and mentally clean no longer existed, so how could he be qualified to be the male lead of a brainless angst novel?
“What did that useless svstem tell you?” Lin Shanchu placed her hands behind
her back and looked at him curiously.
Before Lu Shiyuan could speak, Lin continued, “Did it ever tell you that it was bound to me? Guess what happened after it was bound to me?” Lin Shanchu’s eyes widened as she looked at Lu Shiyuan expectantly.
Lu Shiyuan did not expect Lin Shanchu to be able to guess it.
The system that was suddenly bound to him on the day he was released from prison was his final trump card.
“What happened later?” Lu Shiyuan asked Lin Shanchu as he looked at her expectantly.
“You lost your reputation and become a detestable lowlife.” Lin Shanchu chuckled in a cheerful tone.
Lu Shiyuan’s face darkened as he shouted, “I will definitely make a comeback!”
“Oh.” Lin Shanchu replied nonchalantly, “You’re so confident. Did everything go well after you got out of prison?”
Lu Shiyuan’s face darkened even more
Lin Shanchu tilted her head and looked at him for a moment before she said happily, “Looks like it didn’t go well. Then I can rest assured.”
“The ending will not change!” Lu Shiyuan’s heart was already wavering, but the information that the system had revealed to him was his last resort. He had to believe it.
Lin Shanchu smiled without a word and looked at him contemptuously.
Lu Shiyuan stopped for a moment before hastening his pace and leaving.
The smile on Lin Shanchu’s face disappeared and her expression instantly turned cold.
No wonder only Huo Xunzhou was restricted.
Since that useless system could not defeat her in the past, it was even more impossible for it to control her now.
After Lu Shiyuan slept with Xia Jinmeng, the system disappeared and his reputation was ruined until he went to jail.
All of this proved that her train of thought was correct.
As long as Lu Shiyuan was “unclean”, his male lead aura would cease to exist and everything would no longer go well for him.
But the problem was, why would the system help Lu Shiyuan, who had no male lead aura at all?
Wasn’t this considered illegal in their system?
There had to be a penalty for violating the rules, right?
She remembered that the useless system once said that they would be punished in the book if they could not complete the mission.
This kind of illegal operation should be more serious than failing to complete the mission.
If she did not vent her anger on the spot, she would feel sorry for the hardship that Huo Xunzhou had suffered.
However, she did not know who was in charge of the system.
Or, how could she blow up the system?
“Sister-in-law!”
Li MO saw Lin Shanchu standing still for a long time, so he walked over. Lin Shanchu snapped back to reality and said, “Let’s go.”
“Let’s go to the hospital first,” Li MO told Lin Shanchu after getting into the car.
“Hmm?”
“Big Brother said that you’re injured and you need to go for a checkup.”
Li MO looked at Lin Shanchu through the rearview mirror, but he could not see where she was hurt after a long time..
