There was another characteristic of jackals—they did not hurt their own kind.
From a certain perspective, jackals were much more loyal than humans.
Lin Shanchu stared at Huo Chaosheng and remained silent for a long time.
It was long enough to make Huo Chaosheng vigilant.
“Why do you keep looking at me like that?” He frowned as his eyes was filled with disdain. “The way you’re looking at me now is so disgusting.”
“Have you been to school?” Lin Shanchu smiled. “Why is your comprehension ability inferior to that of a primary school student?”
“Are you scolding me?” Huo Chaosheng asked.
Lin Shanchu ignored him and continued, “I’m looking at you with appreciation, not disgust as you think.”
Huo Chaosheng frowned with a puzzled look on his face.
Lin Shanchu leaned forward. Then, she stared at him unblinkingly and enunciated, “Repeat after me. This is called appreciation.”
She pronounced every word with a little emphasis, sounding a little fierce.
Huo Chaosheng had never been scolded like this before, so he could not react in time and subconsciously pronounced, “This is called appreciation.” “That’s right.” Lin Shanchu smiled appreciatively.
Huo Chaosheng felt that Lin Shanchu treated him differently than before.
He was not used to it.
“I helped you kill Lu Shiyuan, and you’re so nice to me. Lin Shanchu, you’re so hypocritical.”
Hearing Lu Shiyuan’s name, the smile on Lin Shanchu’s face faded.
“Lu Shiyuan is not dead. He’s still alive.”
“What?”
Huo Chaosheng had a rare look of disbelief on his face. “How is that possible? I stepped on the gas pedal all the way and sent him flying! How can he be alive?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing that Lin Shanchu’s expression did not seem fake, Huo Chaosheng added, “Unless he’s not human!”
Lin Shanchu stood up. “Recuperate properly. Don’t do this kind of thing again.”
“You’re leaving so soon?” Huo Chaosheng’s voice came from behind. “Which hospital is Lu Shiyuan in?
Huo Chaosheng was not convinced and wanted to continue killing Lu Shiyuan.
Ignoring him, Lin Shanchu slammed the door and went out.
Huo Xunzhou was still outside.
“Are you done talking?” he asked.
The lights in the corridor were extremely bright, such that the subtle expression on one’s face was clearly visible and there was nowhere to hide.
Lin Shanchu had locked the door before she spoke to Huo Chaosheng just now.
She was sure that Huo Xunzhou did not hear what she said to Huo Chaosheng.
However, as she stood there, she felt as if Huo Xunzhou had seen through everything.
Lin Shanchu lowered her eyes slightly to avoid eye contact with Huo Xunzhou.
“Huo Chaosheng hasn’t given up yet. He still wants to lay hands on Lu Shiyuan.
“I’ll get someone to keep an eye on him.”
“I’ll get going then.” Lin Shanchu nodded.
“Don’t you have anything else to say to me?” Huo Xunzhou suddenly blocked her way.
Lin Shanchu had expected that he would say those words.
Sometimes, she felt Huo Xunzhou was rather less like a normal human being compared to Lu Shiyuan.
Huo Xunzhou was too smart.
It seemed that he could guess everything in this world, and nothing could stump him.
Lin Shanchu chuckled as she seriously sized Huo Xunzhou up. “Actually, you don’t hate Huo Chaosheng.”
Huo Xunzhou’s expression froze.
But in the next second, his expression returned to normal.
“Aren’t you the same?” he asked rhetorically.
No one was a match for Huo Xunzhou when it came to scheming.
Lin Shanchu took a deep breath and walked past Huo Xunzhou.
Judging from the look of his back, he seemed a little flustered.
On the way back, Wen Huan kept sizing Lin Shanchu up with a strange look. “If you have something to say, just say it,” Lin Shanchu said angrily. “You’re quite amazing,” Wen Huan said with admiration.
Lin Shanchu asked, “What?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t say anything.” Wen Huan smiled mysteriously. Lin Shanchu did not understand what nonsense he was spouting.
Only then did Wen Huan remember the important matter.
“Oh right, is Lu Shiyuan’s injury serious?” He had also heard about the car accident after the gala ended. He chased after Lin Shanchu’s car to take photos, just to find out how Lu Shiyuan’s condition was.
Lin Shanchu replied, “He won’t die.”
He could tell that she really did not have any feelings for her fiancé.
Lin Shanchu asked her, “If you don’t like Lu Shiyuan, why don’t you break off the engagement with him?”
Lin Shanchu could not hold back laughter as she said, “Guess why I let him announce our marriage in public.”
Wen Huan asked, “Why?”
Lin Shanchu smiled and changed the topic, “Wen Huan, do you believe in fate?”
Without a second thought, Wen Huan answered, “I don’t believe it.”
“I don’t believe it either.” Lin Shanchu laughed even more heartily.
Wen Huan was still the same Wen Huan.
However, Wen Huan, who disbelieved fate, had no choice but to be at the mercy of fate in the original book.
Wen Huan felt that Lin Shanchu’s smile looked a little sad.
“Feel free to talk to me if you encounter any difficulties. Perhaps I can help you think of a way.”

Wen Huan felt that his concern was unnecessary.
Lu Shiyuan’s car accident hit the headlines that night.
Soon, the hit-and-run driver was arrested by the police.
The hit-and-run driver had been censored, but judging from the figure, Lin Shanchu could tell that the culprit arrested was not Huo Chaosheng.
With the Huo family’s power, they naturally had ways to find a scapegoat.
Of course, Lin Shanchu would not miss this opportunity to see Lu Shiyuan becoming the laughing stock.
She had recently signed a new cosmetics endorsement, and the brand owner sent her a full set of cosmetics.
She put on beautiful makeup and went to the hospital in a glamorous manner.
Lu Shiyuan’s old injuries had relapsed, and his pale face was in stark contrast to Lin Shanchu’s.
Lin Shanchu took six selfies in the ward and posted them on Weibo.
The netizens praised Lin Shanchu’s natural makeup today.
The cosmetics brand’s official Weibo account was the first to comment on her post and praise her beauty.
Lin Shanchu replied to the cosmetics official Weibo account: [Thanks the sponsor for sending the cosmetics over. It’s so useful!]
She had accomplished her daily promotional task as an endorser.
Lin Shanchu put down her phone and looked at Lu Shiyuan.
“Congratulations, the hit-and-run driver has been arrested.” Her voice was filled with joy. People who did not know what happened would think that Lin Shanchu was sincerely congratulating him.
Lu Shiyuan sneered, “I know Huo Chaosheng did it.”
Lin Shanchu looked innocent. “You can’t spout nonsense without evidence. You can’t slander him just because I’m close to him.”
Lu Shiyuan was so angry that he closed his eyes tightly. “I won’t let this matter slide just like that. Tell him to be careful.”
Lin Shanchu rested her chin on her hand and said casually, “He thinks the same as you.”
“You…” Lu Shiyuan’s wound hurt due to rage.
Satisfied, Lin Shanchu triumphantly stood up and said, “I’m going to film tomorrow, so I have to go back and rest early.”
She would join the crew of “Top Feast” tomorrow, a drama that was aired while the filming was in progress.
Lin Shanchu walked to the door and was about to reach out and open it. The door was pushed open from the outside, accompanied by a delicate voice.
“President Lu..”
