Do You Still Hate Her? 11 – Where do you get the confidence that I would pick up trash like you?
Meng Zhichuan arranged a new assistant for Shang Lu, a young girl in her twenties. She was quiet and seemed like a little girl, but she was efficient and strong, not any weaker than boys.
Sometimes, she could understand what Shang Lu needed with just a glance, without Shang Lu even having to say a word.
Shang Lu was very satisfied with this assistant. Before entering the crew with her luggage, she did one last thing—
Moving house.
Although she no longer lived in Shang’s house, the original apartment address was known by Shang Mu and Shang family. She didn’t feel safe living there.
Moreover, she was living alone in that apartment, and the space was quite large. She had long wanted to move to a smaller house.
But Lin Yanyan suddenly messaged Shang Lu, asking her to go out and play together.
Due to uncontrollable circumstances, the filming location for <The Most Hated Her and Him> would be suspended for one episode this weekend. For Shang Lu, this was a good thing, as it would not only delay the progress of the drama filming but also affect her own state.
But for Lin Yanyan, it was like a bolt from the blue. It meant that—
She wouldn’t see Shang Lu for more than ten days!
They were good friends! How could good friends who had just started hanging out be separated for so long? Absolutely not acceptable!
Looking at the WeChat message sent by Lin Yanyan, Shang Lu felt a little embarrassed because she had already made an appointment with a moving company.
So Shang Lu replied, “I’m moving in the morning, is the afternoon okay?”
Lin Yanyan instantly replied, “Moving?! I want to come, I want to come!”
Shang Lu : “?”
She didn’t quite understand why Lin Yanyan would be interested in such a thing.
But since Lin Yanyan wanted to come, she gave Lin Yanyan the time and address.
The next morning.
Looking at the ten black-clad bodyguards standing in front of her apartment door, Shang Lu rubbed her eyes and felt like she was dreaming.
This was also the easiest job the moving company staff had ever taken. They stood by, dumbfounded, watching the ten bodyguards help Shang Lu load each box onto the truck.
Shang Lu looked at Lin Yanyan and asked, not quite understanding, “Why did you bring people with you when I’m moving?”
Lin Yanyan answered confidently, “Strength in numbers! The sooner we finish moving, the sooner we can go out and have fun!”
Shang Lu understood, Lin Yanyan really can’t wait to go play.
However, when these things were moved to Shang Lu’s new home, Lin Yanyan was stunned as she looked at the residential building in front of her. After going inside, she couldn’t believe it and asked, “Your new house is so small.”
Lin Yanyan felt very sad because she had bought a very beautiful new sofa as a gift for Shanglu, but the sofa was clearly too big for the living room.
Here’s how to describe it.
With this sofa placed here, it would be a tight fit to have a coffee table between the TV and the wall. Doing somersaults on the balcony would be more convenient than walking.
Shang Lu fell silent. The words ‘obviously, the sofa you bought is too big’ were on the tip of her tongue, but she didn’t say them.
Seeing Lin Yanyan’s disappointed and sad expression, Shang Lu changed her tone seriously and said, “Actually… I’ve wanted to have a sofa even bigger than a bed for a long time.”
Lin Yanyan : “!”
Lin Yanyan’s eyes immediately lit up. She grabbed Shang Lu’s hand and directed the bodyguards to first move the other things upstairs and then deal with the sofa.
The bodyguards acted quickly as well. Before mealtime, they had already tidied up the new house for Shang Lu and placed the huge sofa in the living room.
Lin Yanyan was very satisfied.
For Lin Yanyan, Shang Lu liking this sofa meant that Shang Lu liked her, which meant their friendship had taken a step closer.
And in the following time, Lin Yanyan sent all her bodyguards back home, leaving only one driver responsible for taking her and Shang Lu to the nearest mall.
It was already lunchtime when Lin Yanyan took Shang Lu to a very niche restaurant, a place that many internet celebrities liked to come to take photos and check-in. It had separate private rooms and required reservations several days in advance.
Of course, Lin Yanyan was an exception because she was a VVVIP customer.
The dishes that were served had some things that Shang Lu wasn’t familiar with. She picked up a small piece and was about to taste it when a small plate of sauce was placed next to her.
Lin Yanyan urged, “Just eating it directly is mediocre. Quickly dip it in this sauce, that’s where the soul lies!”
Listening to Lin Yanyan’s words, Shang Lu dipped some sauce and brought it to her mouth. The taste was indeed good.
And then, Lin Yanyan pointed out several rare dishes and passionately introduced their flavors and how to eat them to Shang Lu. The pampered young lady even peeled a shrimp herself, wrapped it in a piece of dough, dipped it in sauce, and fed it to Shang Lu, saying, “Try it.”
The taste was excellent.
Delicious food and a great friend.
Shang Lu’s lips curved slightly, and then she pointed to another dish and asked directly, “What’s that? I haven’t seen it before.”
She didn’t say anything.
But her true thoughts has been revealed.
Shang Lu rarely came to this kind of place, not because of the money, but because she didn’t have any friends to accompany her.
And Lin Yanyan was momentarily stunned, then she spoke to Shang Lu about how extravagant but impractical the dish was. It looked like a big portion, but there was only a small amount of food that could be eaten. While talking, she also started picking out the dish directly and put it all in Shang Lu’s bowl.
Lin Yanyan had never taken care of someone like this before, but she didn’t feel the impatience she had imagined. Instead, she felt a sense of accomplishment.
Then she proudly said, “What would you do without me?”
Shang Lu also gave face and echoed, “Yeah, what would I do without you?”
After saying that, Shang Lu pointed to the plate of shrimp and said, “I want more, thank you.”
Lin Yanyan : “?”
Did she get it wrong? Did Shang Lu just command her like that? Taking advantage of her generosity!
But when she met Shang Lu’s expectant eyes, Lin Yanyan reluctantly showed her displeasure on her face, saying, “Lazy to death,” but her hands honestly started peeling the shrimp.
Forget it.
She wasn’t going to argue with Shang Lu!
In the afternoon.
Shang Lu accompanied Lin Yanyan to get a new manicure, and of course, Lin Yanyan was also a VIP customer here.
Shang Lu didn’t originally intend to get one, but when Lin Yanyan excitedly found several trendy nail styles that were currently popular online and said she wanted to get matching ones with Shang Lu, Shang Lu silently extended her hands.
The nail artist’s craftsmanship is also excellent, with hardly any difference between the actual nails and the pictures, which made Lin Yanyan particularly satisfied.
Next, they strolled around together for a long time. Lin Yanyan pulled Shang Lu and took many photos together, then happily posted them on Weibo.
It was getting late, and Lin Yanyan knew that Shang Lu would start filming tomorrow, so she didn’t delay too long.
Shang Lu stood by the roadside and waved goodbye to Lin Yanyan, watching her get into the car and leave. Instead of going home, she returned to the same shopping mall and entered the same nail salon as before.
Upon hearing that Shang Lu wanted to remove her nail art, the nail artist looked a bit flustered and asked, “Miss, is there anything unsatisfactory about our service?”
“No, I really like it.” Shang Lu pondered for a few seconds and explained, “It’s just inconvenient for work reasons to keep it. It’s not your fault. Also, please don’t let the lady who came with me know about this. It’s troublesome.”
