Chapter 314: Settle Out of the Court

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The private room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

Li MO clapped his hands vigorously and shouted, “Congratulations, Big Brother and Sister-in-law!”

Then, the rest of the people clapped their hands and congratulated them perfunctorily.

“Congratulations!” Nan Mu said as he thought his cash cow was finally taken by the wild guy.

“Congratulations!” Yun Wu said as she thought Huo Xunzhou was devious and managed to trick Lin Shanchu into getting together with him.

“Congratulations!” Wen Huan said while thinking that his idol whose reputation was ruined was really sinister!

“Congratulations!” Chu Gushen said, thinking it was not a big deal that Huo Xunzhou had a girlfriend!

“Congratulations!” Qi Cheng said. He thought that they made the announcement now, Lin Shanchu’s career would definitely be affected.

“Congratulations!” He Xiang said. She thought that Huo Xunzhou was not bad, but Huo Chaosheng was also nice.

After looking around with an expressionless look, Huo Xunzhou said emotionlessly, “Everyone, thank you for your blessings.”

The applause suddenly became much more intense.

Huo Xunzhou was satisfied and his smile looked extremely gentle.

“Let’s order dishes.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone picked up the menu and ordered the dishes without holding back.

Lin Shanchu looked around and whispered into Huo Xunzhou’s ear, “Everyone has a grudge against you.”

Huo Xunzhou squeezed her palm and said calmly, “It’s not a grudge, but a blessing. ”

Speechless, she thought that he was in a good state of mind.

“Want some wine?” Nan Mu looked up while holding the menu.

Chu Gushen paused for a moment before he said, “I still have work to do later.”

Yun Wu quickly raised her hand and said, “I have to wake up at 5:00 a.m.

tomorrow for endorsement.”

The others also expressed that they had work tonight or tomorrow morning.

In the end, He Xiang whispered, “I’ll have some wine.”

“Alright.” Nan Mu said with a smile, “Drink however you want. If you can’t drink, we’ll get President Huo drink it.”

Nan Mu did not want to drink wine, but he was clearly trying to force Huo Xunzhou to drink.

“That’s for the best.” Chu Gushen smiled gently.

Nan Mu ordered red wine and a stronger imported wine.

When the waiter poured red wine for He Xiang, she shook her head and pointed at the imported wine. “I’ll drink that.”

Lin Shanchu reminded, “The alcohol content is very high.”

He Xiang smiled at Lin Shanchu. “I’ll give it a try.”

Lin Shanchu did not try to persuade He Xiang anymore.

He Xiang usually did not drink wine.

Wen Huan looked at He Xiang thoughtfully. Then, he turned his head and asked Lin Shanchu, “Are you guys planning to settle Tang Qidai’s case out of the court?”

“Settle out of the court?” Lin Shanchu shook her head and said, “No. The trial has been postponed because Tang Qidai is hospitalized.”

Hearing her words, Wen Huan revealed a puzzled expression.

Lin Shanchu seemed to understand something and turned to look at He Xiang.

He Xiang was holding a glass of wine and sipping it.

Lin Shanchu averted her gaze and asked Wen Huan in a low voice, “What happened?”

Wen Huan replied, “You don’t know that the Cheng family from Capital City sent someone to interfere with Tang Qidai’s case?”

Lin Shanchu shook her head lightly and asked, “What’s the background of the Cheng family in Capital City?”

Wen Huan leaned forward and looked at Huo Xunzhou beside Lin Shanchu.

“To make a simple analogy, if the Cheng family were form an alliance with your boyfriend’s family by marriage, they wouldn’t be considered climbing up the social ladder.”

“What a great background.” It was no wonder He Xiang was so distracted the entire afternoon and did not tell her about it.

The Huo family was considered to be the top-notch family in Capital City. The Cheng family was naturally on par with the Huo family.

The people from the Cheng family probably had approached He Xiang.

He Xiang knew that the Cheng family was powerful and that she could not beat them. Even if she told Lin Shanchu, it would only cause Lin Shanchu more trouble.

He Xiang was a young lady who did not want to cause trouble for others.

“Why would the Cheng family interfere with Tang Qidai’s case?” Lin Shanchu asked.

Just as Wen Huan was about to speak, he felt an unfriendly gaze fall on him.

He looked up and met Huo Xunzhou’s emotionless eyes.

Huo Xunzhou stared at him expressionlessly for quite some time.

Wen Huan felt his hair stand on end under his stare as he said, “You should tell

Shanshan. ”

Lin Shanchu turned to look at Huo Xunzhou in confusion.

Huo Xunzhou curled his lip slightly and showed a gentle expression as he asked, “What are you guys talking about?”

Wen Huan was bewildered. Not only was his idol sinister, but he was also pretentious?

Lin Shanchu felt that something was wrong and turned to look at Wen Huan.

Wen Huan already turned around to chat with Qi Cheng.

Lin Shanchu turned to Huo Xunzhou and asked, “Do you know the Cheng family?”

Huo Xunzhou answered, “I know.”

“The Cheng family interfered with Tang Qidai’s case.” Lin Shanchu briefly explained the situation to Huo Xunzhou, “They have probably approached He

Xiang and asked her to reconcile with Tang Qidai.”

“I heard about it,” Huo Xunzhou said in a deep voice.

“How did you guys know?” Lin Shanchu asked skeptically.

This incident probably happened when she went out to have lunch with Huo Xunzhou. Wen Huan was a reporter who traveled around all day long for scoops. It was possible that he immediately knew about this matter, but even Huo Xunzhou knew about it.

If Wen Huan had not mentioned this matter, she would not have known it by now.

Huo Xunzhou smiled lightly and patted her head gently to comfort her.

“When the Cheng family’s patriarch was young, he fooled around with a lot of women out there. Recently, he is seriously ill and his days are numbered, so he wants to compensate for those lovechildren.”

“Tang Qidai is a lovechild of the Cheng family’s patriarch?”

Huo Xunzhou nodded.

There was no such thing in the original book.

Tang Qidai left the stage directly in the original .

Did the plot go haywire completely after the original male lead, Lu Shiyuan, slept with Xia Jinmeng?

It was all a mess.

What happened in the future could no longer be based on the contents of the original book.

Lin Shanchu sneered and muttered, “An illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family.”

This identity was quite interesting.

Nan Mu’s high-pitched voice rang out in the private room. “Xunzhou, stop whispering to Shanshan. The two of you are the hosts today. You should at least say a few words and drink a few glasses of wine.”

After hearing those words, Lin Shanchu and Huo Xunzhou looked at each other. Then, she couldn’t help but smile.

There was a hint of glee in her smile.

Huo Xunzhou raised his eyebrows and looked at her deeply before turning to deal with Nan Mu.

Everyone had a great time during dinner.

Lin Shanchu was also happy.

If she did not meet Lu Shiyuan when she left, she would be even happier.

Everyone still had things to do, so the group went out directly after dinner.

He Xiang’s alcohol tolerance was not good to begin with. With Qi Cheng watching from the side, he did not let her drink too much

Lin Shanchu helped He Xiang out. Yun Wu also came over to lend her a hand.

“Enough! What’s the use of telling me this now? What were you doing earlier?” A familiar roar caught everyone’s attention.

Lin Shanchu could tell that it was Lu Shiyuan’s voice, so she continued to walk forward without looking back.

Lin Shanchu stopped in her tracks when a middle-aged man’s voice rang out.

“Shanshan?”

Lin Shanchu pursed his lip and slowly turned around.

When Lu Qinghuai, who was dressed in plain clothes, saw Lin Shanchu’s face clearly, he smiled in surprise and said, “It really is you, Shanshan!”

Lu Qinghuai walked up to Lin Shanchu with a smile on his face, but Li MO stopped him before he could get close to her..
