Lin Shanchu didn’t care if he was happy or not. She stood up and was about to leave.
Huo Chaosheng pulled her back.
He placed her hand on his chest and his eyes lit up, “My heart tells me that we are the same.”
Lin Shanchu struggled hard but couldn’t break free.
What Lin Shanchu hated the most were people who used their physical strength to force others to do as they say.
Especially men.
There were trainees nearby and cameras all around her.
But Lin Shanchu didn’t care.
She raised her foot and kicked fiercely at Huo Chaosheng’s calf
Huo Chaosheng was caught off guard and took on Lin Shanchu’s kick head-on. He immediately gasped in pain as his calf went numb, feeling as if it had been severed.
The forceful grip around Lin Shanchu’s wrist also went loose.
A few of the staff members behind the camera saw this happening through the screen and were shocked. They quickly rushed over in concern.
“What’s wrong?” “What happened?”
Huo Chaosheng was the world’s top-tier celebrity. He was said to have a strong family background, which meant that there should be no chance of mishaps. But when Huo Chaosheng came to look for Lin Shanchu earlier, her teammates noticed him.
They all saw Huo Chaosheng pulling on Lin Shanchu’s hand and Lin Shanchu kicking Huo Chaosheng.
In their eyes, Lin Shanchu kicked Huo Chaosheng because she was angry about him holding her hand.
Although they all liked Huo Chaosheng, they could still look at the situation clearly.
Which was why her teammates ran over to look at Lin Shanchu with concern.
“Are you alright?” Ran Zhimo asked Lin Shanchu softly.
Lin Shanchu’s expression was still a bit cold.
“I’m fine,” her tone softened in the face of her teammates’ concern.
Huo Chaosheng lifted his leg and stretched it around. Then, he said helplessly to the staff, “It’s nothing, I just accidentally stepped on my right foot with my left foot.”
There was a hint of annoyance in his tone as if he couldn’t do anything about his clumsiness.
The staff members were all taken aback after hearing this.
Other staff members who hadn’t previously witnessed the situation found Huo Chaosheng’s reaction to be quite cute and couldn’t help but laugh.
“Teacher Huo, please be careful. The performance is in a few days, so you can’t afford to have any accidents.”
“Okay.”
Huo Chaosheng nodded cooperatively.
At this moment, Huo Chaosheng’s behavior was the Alec that everyone loved.
Handsome, patient, gentle, and didn’t put up a front.
However, this was only superficial.
The real Huo Chaosheng was inhumane.
Sensing Lin Shanchu’s gaze on him, Huo Chaosheng turned around and flashed her a bright smile.
Lin Shanchu suddenly understood why Huo Chaosheng said they were of the same kind.
She and Huo Chaosheng seemed to be no different from each other.
They would both disguise themselves as someone that everyone loved in broad daylight.
Then, in the dark corners where no one could see, they would reveal their detestable true nature.
Once the staff members left, Huo Chaosheng complained to Lin Shanchu, “Why are you even fiercer than Teacher Wu?”
Only after hearing him mention Yun Wu did Lin Shanchu only look at him seriously.
“Do you also think Teacher Wu is like you as well?”
Huo Chaosheng immediately shook his head and explained, “No, Teacher Wu is cute.”
No wonder Yun Wu was afraid of him.
Being considered cute by such a perverted guy is not a good thing.
Huo Chaosheng sighed and said helplessly, “Teacher Wu is too timid. We were just playing a little game and she was scared away.”
“What game?” The kind of things Huo Chaosheng considered as games were definitely not the same kind that ordinary people thought of. The game he was talking about was probably a game of life and death.
“It’s just…”
“How is everyone doing with their practice?”
Nan Mu suddenly walked in and interrupted Huo Chaosheng.
‘Mr. Nan.”
The staff and teammates greeted Nan Mu one after another.
Nan Mu gave them a nod in response.
He walked straight to Huo Chaosheng and asked with a smile, “Alec, can our trainees keep up?
“They are all doing well,” Huo Chaosheng replied.
Nan Mu glanced at Lin Shanchu and asked, “What about Lin Shanchu?” Huo Chaosheng’s eyes turned serious, “Her performance is very stable.” “Stable?” Nan Mu was stunned.
On the day of the song selection, Lin Shanchu knew that the fans had already made an ‘Island in the Sky’ emoji pack based on her turning into an “I don’t want to live anymore, just die” meme.
How could her performance be stable?
Was Xunzhou’s troublemaker brother actually a little normal in the head?
Facing Nan Mu’s suspicious gaze, Lin Shanchu said with a bit of annoyance, “What he means is that I’m very unstable.”
“Yes. Shanshan understands me after all,” Huo Chaosheng nodded happily.
“Oh.” Nan Mu cupped his hand over his lips and cleared his throat to suppress his laughter.
Just as he was holding back laughs, all of a sudden Nan Mu reacted abruptly, “What did you call her?”
“Shanshan,” Huo Chaosheng reached out to grab Lin Shanchu’s shoulder.
Lin Shanchu had been wary of Huo Chaosheng all along, so she managed to dodge the attack swiftly.
A trace of displeasure flashed through Huo Chaosheng’s eyes, but he quickly regained his composure, “She is the daughter of Third Brother’s master, and Third Brother treats her like a sister. So naturally, she is my little sister too.”
“Don’t you think so, Sister Shanshan?” Huo Chaosheng tilted his head and smiled at Lin Shanchu.
Before this, Lin Shanchu had only heard Huo Xunzhou call her Sister Shanshan.
At that time, she didn’t think of it as anything special. She just found it novel and surprising.
Now that she was hearing another man call her that, Lin Shanchu felt an indescribable sense of disgust.
Lin Shanchu’s eyes fell grave, “I have a name, it’s Lin Shanchu.”
“Okay, if you’re not happy, I won’t call you that way,” after Huo Chaosheng finished speaking, he added, “…Lin Shanchu.”
Nan Mu’s expression became a little subtle.
“Everyone, let’s hurry up and train. Time is running out. Lin Shanchu, come out with me for a moment.”
Nan Mu often had things to discuss with Lin Shanchu, so it didn’t surprise anyone.
Huo Chaosheng watched the two of them leave as he pondered. Then he leaned over to Ran Zhimo and asked, “Was Lin Shanchu’s relationship with Nan Mu always this good?”
“President Nan is Lin Shanchu’s boss. So, he comes to her whenever he needs anything,” Ran Zhimo said truthfully. “I see,” Huo Chaosheng nodded.
Outside the door.
Nan Mu took Lin Shanchu to a less crowded area.
He turned to look at Lin Shanchu and asked with a serious expression, “Has
Huo Chaosheng caused you any trouble?”
If Huo Chaosheng’s constant pestering and mentioning that they were of the same kind could be considered trouble…
Then Huo Chaosheng would really be causing her trouble all the time. Lin Shanchu thought about it for a moment, then asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Huo Chaosheng is Xunzhou’s cousin. He’s not quite normal up here,” Nan Mu pointed at his brain, “Stay away from him.”
“Cousin?”
“He is Xunzhou’s aunt’s son.”
So that was the case.
“But… why does his aunt’s son also have the surname Huo?” Lin Shanchu then answered her question, “Did he take on his mother’s surname?”
“Yes,” Nan Mu explained, “The Huo family is large and wealthy, so it’s normal for them to take on their mother’s surname.. They can get more inheritance that way…”
